Can I use my own contractor?

Yes. There are no restrictions on contractors. If you approve them, we approve them.

Will my contractor use this?

With a straightforward process at no additional cost, any upstanding contractor willing to have their work inspected should be happy to use us.

What if I need project details a year from now?

Everything is documented and stored — photos, milestone approvals, inspection records, and financial details. You will have a complete project record you can reference long after the work is done.

What if I have multiple projects?

You can create and manage multiple projects under your account, each with its own milestones, funding, and documentation.

What if a milestone fails inspection?

You and the contractor receive a report detailing what needs to be corrected. The contractor uploads photos and documentation showing the issues are fixed, and the inspector then provides approval.

Can I fund each milestone instead of the entire project?

To guarantee a great experience for both you and your contractor, we require projects to be fully funded up front.

What Happens From Your Side

1
Your Homeowner Creates the Project
They fund the full project amount before work begins. You'll receive an invitation to join the project — no software to install, no subscription required.
2
You Document each Milestone
Upload photos, materials lists, and completion notes for each phase of work. The platform guides you through exactly what to submit.
3
An Independent Inspector Verifies the Work
A licensed inspector visits the job site, reviews the milestone, and produces a written report. This step protects you as much as your homeowner — everything is documented.
4
Your Homeowner Approves, Funds Release
Once the milestone passes inspection and your homeowner approves, funds transfer immediately. No waiting. No negotiating. No chasing.
What This Means for Your Business

Pre-funded Projects
You know the money is in the account before you start. No more risk of funding falling through mid-project. No more awkward deposit conversations.

A Complete Paper Trail
Every milestone, photo, change order, and inspection report is stored in the project record. If there's ever a question about what was agreed, built, or approved — the documentation is there.

No Cost to You
Secure Home Renovation is free for contractors. Your homeowner pays the platform fee based on their project size. You participate at zero cost.

Fewer Payment Disputes
When every milestone is tied to an independent inspection, there's nothing to dispute. The inspector either passes or fails the work — and both sides see the same report.

Common Questions from Contractors
Is this really free for me?
Yes. The platform fee is paid by the homeowner based on their project size. You participate at no cost.
Do I have to use specific inspectors?
No. Secure Home Renovation coordinates and schedules the independent inspector. You don't select them and you don't pay for them. Your job is to do the work — the inspection process handles itself.
What if the inspector fails a milestone?
You'll receive a detailed written report specifying what needs to be corrected. Once you've made the corrections and uploaded documentation, a follow-up review is scheduled. Payment isn't released until the milestone passes — which protects both of you.
How long does it take to get paid after a milestone is approved?
We release funds within 24 hours of approval. Depending on your bank, it may take 1-3 business days to post.
What if the homeowner is being unreasonable about approving a milestone?
Payment approval is tied to inspection results — not personal preference. If an independent inspector passes the milestone, the homeowner approves based on that result. Our dispute resolution policy provides a clear path if disagreements arise. You're protected by the inspection record.
Can I use this on multiple projects at the same time?
Yes. You can participate in as many active projects as you have homeowners who set them up. There's no limit.
