    FAQ

    Is this a quote or a bid?No. It's an independent planning estimate. Only a licensed contractor who has seen your home can give you a bid.
    Where do the numbers come from?Regional cost tables adjusted by ZIP code. In this draft, numbers are example data only until a licensed cost-data source is in place.
    Will contractors call me?No. We don't sell your info. You're only connected with a contractor if you choose to be.
    Can I talk to someone?Clear Scope Home is fully self-serve: help center, email support, and an automated assistant. There are no phone sales.
    What areas do you cover?The contiguous United States (not Alaska, Hawaii, or territories yet).
    Can I upload my remodel plans?Yes, optionally. Adding drawings or photos unlocks the Detailed report with plans (one flat for any size or number of rooms, Phased Budget & Timeline included, draft pricing) with a more granular scope and material list. Plan-based reports are generated automatically and quality-checked by an experienced construction and restoration professional on a random-sample basis and whenever the system flags unusual quantities, materials, or costs. Always verify quantities before ordering. You must accept the Terms before uploading. In this draft site, files stay in your browser and are not uploaded.
    Do you do new construction?Yes. See New Construction for material takeoffs from house plans. Takeoffs are estimates; verify quantities before ordering materials.
    Refunds?Your first report has a no-questions refund within 7 days.
    Are you a public adjuster?No. We don't represent you with your insurer or negotiate claims.
