Yes, renovation quotations are usually free!

Why Do Home Renovation Sites Publicise "Free Renovation Quotes" then?

^This is a clickbait tactic used by renovation sites to get your contact information.

Your information will then be sent to multiple interior design firms who will contact you.

This is not ideal as these interior designers are not filtered based on your requirements leading you to waste more time.

The so called ‘free renovation quote’ if given, are also an unhelpful ballpark figure (usually very low to coax you into meeting them).

An accurate renovation quotation is supposed to be itemised, and takes time and precision to prepare.

Nobody Around Us Could Recommend a Good ID

It was almost like they didn’t exist - so we started our search on Google. HomeMatch came across as a no brainer for us to try because of their case trust accredited IDs, clear outline of their services and the fact that they came at no cost to us. The communication with HomeMatch were always swift, clear and helpful. From our online form, they called and clarified our needs then set about to match us with five IDs. We were able to view their profiles, portfolios and video snippets which were handy when it came to comparing meeting them in person whether they were authentic. Four of the five IDs contacted us swiftly and met with us twice - the first time to understand our requirements and floor plan and the second time to propose layout and itemized quotation. Same went for the fifth ID who was a later match because the initial match was not able to meet us. HomeMatch really came through with promptly replacing the initial recommendation such that the replacement ID was able to meet us the very next day. We were able to select an ID from the five based on all our interactions and although the process from contacting HomeMatch to signing with ID took 2 months it would have taken even longer had we tried to source IDs from the wild. HomeMatch services didn’t end with us signing the contract. HomeMatch reviewed our contract and advised us of its pros and shortcomings. They also provided critical tips that will help make our renovation journey a successful one. Although our Reno work have not begun we know that clear communication works best and we can always count on HomeMatch should we need them again.

What is the Right Thing to Do to Kickstart My Renovation?‍

You should find Renovators who can work within your renovation budget.

Why? Some Renovators have minimum budget requirements while others prefer to work with a smaller budget.

This is usually not stated upfront as Renovators may not want to lose the opportunity to meet you.

Common tactics to shun homeowners include: 1) ghosting you after the meeting and 2) marking up renovation quotations.
