Help & advice
You've found your inspiration, worked out the layout you want to go for, and answered the details. What's next?
Share with friends and family for feedback
Reno gives you lots of tips and guidance to help you make the decision that works best for you, but it still helps to ask someone else to cast an eye over your plan. Friends or family who know your needs and are familiar with your property can help you to spot oversights and make the right choice for you.
Use the share button to get a link you can copy and paste into a text message, email or chat app, and ask them for feedback before moving on.
Share with tradespeople to get comparable quotes
The detail you get from Reno is an excellent resource for trades, who usually get very little information up front, so they can give you a much more accurate quote.
We recommend you seek quotes from at least three trades to get a good idea of how much the project will cost.
How to find a tradesperson
The best place to start is your social circle. Ask for recommendations from friends, family, and colleagues who recently carried out work on their home. A good review from someone you trust is the best kind!
You can also reach multiple tradespeople at once on these sites -
Or use your local Facebook groups to find recommendations.
Print it as a memory aid
Keeping a printed copy of your brief is handy for remembering the decisions you made.
Reno today
Reno, our home renovation app, is the missing link between Pinterest and Checkatrade.
Starting with kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, we've built our renovation design and planning tool to guide you through key decisions, from big ones like layout to little ones like how to edge your tiles. We turn this into a neat, sharable brief that homeowners and trades can use for more realistic quotes.
Best of all, you can try it for free for one room.
