Why home remodeling visualization is the key to “one-call closes”

Written by Bolster | Apr 16, 2024 6:00:00 AM

87% of homeowners find imagining what their home renovations will look like before the project impossible. It's no wonder why home renovation projects feel like a choose-your-own-adventure book, with endless possibilities and no clear direction. It's like trying to navigate a maze while blindfolded—frustrating and awkward.


And you can imagine how that can make selling to homeowners difficult for remodelers and contractors. A homeowner's prolonged design indecision means more time waiting for decisions and less time working. Fortunately, with advancements in technology, contractors can help their homeowner customers leverage home remodeling visualization to streamline the process and carve a clear path to a final design decision. Enter home remodeling visualization, the key to "one-call closes" for contractors.


What is Home Remodeling Visualization, and Why Should You Care?

Home remodeling visualization is a game-changer for contractors and homeowners alike. This technology allows you to create a visual representation of your home projects before starting the actual work.

Using the power of AI, homeowners can upload a photo of their home and have it instantly prepared for fast and easy design.

But why should you care?

Because visualization eliminates the guesswork and uncertainty that come with renovation, the process is much smoother and stress-free. For contractors, it allows you to present different design options to clients, generate new ideas, and help clients arrive at a final design decision faster. And for homeowners, it reduces the need for change requests and buyer's remorse.


The Benefits of Home Remodeling Visualization

Home remodeling visualization offers several benefits that make it an essential tool for remodelers and contractors to use in their sales and marketing process with customers.

Here are some of the top benefits:

1. Visualize the End Result

Homeowners can see the final result of their renovation project before starting any work, which drastically reduces the need for change requests and buyer's remorse.

2. Eliminate Buying decisions

By streamlining the design process, visualization eliminates the buying indecision that typically plagues the remodeling sales cycle.

3. Access property-specific 3D Models and Measurements

Tools like Renoworks Pro give users access to 3D models and measurements to specific property addresses, giving homeowners and contractors peace of mind knowing the job they're getting into is the one they expected.

4. Master the Art of Upselling

Visualizers give contractors the ability to prepare multiple designs for their clients. By using the "good, better, best" approach, contractors can scale the price of their project and give themselves the best chance to increase their margins.
