Price it with options
Build the estimate with option packages and allowances in the open. The client chooses in writing, and the signed scope becomes the contract with its payment schedule.
Crewkat for Remodeling
The whole remodel, from first estimate to final payment.
A remodel is a hundred decisions stretched over weeks — selections, allowances, changes, surprises behind walls. Crewkat runs the whole flow in one system: the optioned estimate, the signed contract, the change orders, the daily record, and the client who always knows where things stand.

What it does
Built for the way remodeling work actually runs.
Remodels do not fail on craftsmanship; they strain on communication and paperwork drift. Crewkat keeps one living record per remodel — what was priced, what was chosen, what changed, what it costs now — shared with the client through their portal and run day to day from your phone.
- Estimate options clients decide on. Good-better-best packages and add-on options on the estimate, ticked and approved by the client with the total updating live — decisions in writing before demolition starts.
- Allowances, agreed up front. Tile, fixtures, and cabinet allowances written into the estimate and the contract as numbers everyone signed — so selections adjust against an agreed figure instead of becoming an argument.
- Contracts signed from a link. The full agreement, allowances and payment schedule included, e-signed from the client's phone. No printing, no scanning, no “we never agreed to that.”
- Change orders before the work. Hidden damage, a moved wall, an upgraded finish — each becomes a change order with its own price and signature, and the job total updates the moment it is signed.
- Daily logs and work summaries. A dated log with photos every workday, rolled into client-ready work summaries you can send weekly — what was done, what is next — through the client portal and summary links.
- Progress invoicing and Pay Now. Draws at signing, start, substantial progress, and completion as invoices on the job. With Pay Now on Premium, clients pay each by card or bank transfer from its link, and the balance is always current.
Every remodel, by stage
Sample workflow — generic labels only; your jobs show here
How it works
Three steps, from first call to final payment.
Run it in the open
Daily logs, photos, and selections live on the job; changes are signed change orders; the client follows along through their portal instead of texting for updates.
Close it like a pro
Punch list walked, final work summary sent, last invoice paid from its link. The complete record — scope, changes, photos, payments — stays filed for warranty calls and the next project.
Allowances and changes, without disputes
The number everyone signed.
Most remodel arguments are really allowance arguments: the selection cost more than the allowance, and nobody can prove what was agreed. Crewkat keeps the allowance figures in the signed documents and every change priced and signed before it is built — so final numbers are arithmetic, not negotiation, and your margin survives the selections meeting.
Clients who feel informed buy again
Summaries do the updating.
A client who gets a weekly work summary — photos, progress, what is next — stops chasing you and starts trusting the process. In Crewkat Office, the production board runs every remodel by stage while the app runs the jobsite, and the money dashboard tracks draws against contracts across the whole book of work.
Common questions
Remodeling, answered.
How do allowances work in Crewkat?
Allowances are written into the estimate and contract as agreed amounts for selections like tile, fixtures, and cabinets. Final selections adjust against those figures in the job's documents, so both sides always work from the signed number.
What happens when the scope changes mid-remodel?
It becomes a change order: a priced document the client signs from a link before the changed work starts. The job total updates with the signature, and the signed change order files onto the job.
How do I keep clients updated without constant calls?
Log the day's work and photos on the job and send a client-ready work summary for any date range — or share the client portal link, where the documents and photos you choose are always current.
