HouseGnosis helps you understand your home project, compare contractor estimates, ask better questions and make a more informed decision—before you sign.
HouseGnosis is designed around the decision, not one particular trade.
Bathroom and kitchen remodeling remain among the most common remodeling jobs, while window/door replacement, roofing, siding and outdoor projects are also major homeowner categories.
Describe the project and upload photos, quotes or estimates you already have.
Organize scope, products, price, warranty and important exclusions so proposals are easier to compare.
Get a practical question list and clearer next steps before choosing a contractor or product.
Two estimates can look similar while including very different products, labor, warranties and exclusions.
| Compare | Estimate A | Estimate B | Questions to ask |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scope | What's included? | What's included? | Removal, disposal, prep, permits? |
| Product | Brand / model | Brand / model | Exact material and specifications? |
| Installation | Method | Method | Who performs the work? |
| Warranty | Terms | Terms | Product vs. labor coverage? |
| Price | Total | Total | Allowances, change orders, financing? |
Whether you're researching, collecting bids or already holding a proposal, start with the information you have.
Quotes, project photos and estimates can help organize the questions you need to ask.
Start with the project itself and where you are in the decision process.
