Renovessa

Trust and safety

Know what is checked, what is not, and what to verify yourself.

Home-improvement decisions affect your home, safety, and finances. Renovessa publishes its process so homeowners can evaluate each step without relying on vague trust badges.

Planning ranges, not quotes

Calculator results depend on the scope entered and documented local assumptions. A contractor must inspect or review the actual project before confirming price.

Credential review before routing

Renovessa reviews applicable license and insurance information before routing an RFQ. The exact checks and review date should be recorded.

Homeowner re-verification

Credentials can expire or change. Confirm the contractor's current status with the relevant official source before signing a contract or paying.

Controlled information sharing

Project and contact information is used to process the RFQ and coordinate relevant responses. Renovessa does not promise that every submission will receive bids.

Before signing a home-improvement contract

  • Verify the business name, license number, classification, status, and expiration date.
  • Confirm insurance directly and understand what the policy covers.
  • Compare written scopes, exclusions, allowances, permit responsibility, payment schedule, and warranties.
  • Do not rely on Renovessa's planning range as the final contract price.
