III. How it works
From a scoped estimate to real contractor bids.
The wizard captures the whole job, shows a DMV ballpark, and turns it into an RFQ Renovessa can review and route to relevant contractors when capacity is available.
Step II — You get a real DMV ballpark. ↳ Instant.
Based on your answers, Renovessa can show a versioned internal planning range only after its supporting DMV evidence record is approved. It is never a binding quote.
Step III — You submit an RFQ to Renovessa. ↳ Under a minute.
Turn the scoped job into a request for quote. We review it and, where trade and ZIP capacity is available, ask relevant contractors for responses.
Step IV — We bring bids back to you. ↳ Timing varies by project and availability.
Renovessa organizes the responses it receives and returns the available options. Ask questions, compare the scope, hire who you want, or decide later.
IV. Project types
Scope a project, then check contractor availability for your trade and ZIP.

VI. Frequently asked
Things homeowners ask before submitting.
Renovessa does not currently charge homeowners to use the estimate wizard or submit an RFQ. Any contractor proposal and payment for project work are separate.
It is a versioned internal planning model, not a claim that every DMV project falls in the range. Numeric output is withheld unless the matching evidence record and model version have been approved. Contractors determine actual pricing after reviewing the scope and site.
Renovessa reviews your scoped request and checks current trade and ZIP availability. When relevant contractors are available, we request responses and organize the options received. Timing depends on project complexity and contractor availability.
