Renovation Budget Guard

Renovation Budget Guard helps you manage renovation budgets, contractor quotes, extra costs, payments, inspections, and project records in one place.

Whether you are remodeling a room or managing a full home renovation, the app helps you understand where your money is going and how your budget changes during the project.

BUDGET TRACKING

Create a project budget by category, including:

• Design
• Demolition
• Electrical and plumbing

QUOTE ANALYSIS

Enter quotes from different contractors or renovation companies and compare them side by side.

Analyze:

• Total quote differences
• Quote category coverage
• Category price ranges
• Categories without recorded quote data
• Quote totals versus your own budget
• Categories above budget
• Pair-by-pair quote differences

Quote analysis is based only on the information you enter. The app does not determine whether a market price is reasonable and does not recommend contractors.
