Know which whole-home renovation leads are worth estimate time
Whole-home renovation enquiries range from a single major area to a full-house gut, so the intake asks about renovation scope, occupancy during the work, and any structural, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC upgrades before a lead reaches your CRM. Homeowners also attach current-condition photos and existing plans so your team can size the estimate visit before driving out.
The exact intake your whole-home renovation leads complete
This is the real 8-question guided intake for Whole-Home Renovation — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified whole-home renovation lead should tell you
A coordinated remodel spanning multiple rooms, floors, or systems in a single property rather than one isolated space, often bundling structural, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC work under one project timeline.
- Many Areas Home Plan
- Property Type
- Home Occupied During Renovation
- Property Owner Or Authorized
- Would Like Renovation Begin
- Have Architectural Or Design
- Systems, If Any, Updating
- General Condition Home Before
The questions your team needs answered
Every whole-home renovation intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| How many areas of the home do you plan to renovate? | The number of areas being renovated is the clearest signal of overall project size and directly separates single-room requests from true whole-house work. |
| What is the property type? | Segments the lead so you can route, price, and prioritize it correctly. |
| Is the home currently occupied during the renovation? | Whether the home will be occupied, vacant, or partially occupied changes how your crew needs to plan access, phasing, and scheduling before the estimate. |
| Are you the property owner or an authorized decision-maker for this project? | Confirming the respondent is the owner or authorized decision-maker prevents estimates from being scheduled with someone who can't actually approve the project. |
| When would you like the renovation to begin? | How soon the homeowner wants to start tells your team whether this is a time-sensitive job or a long-lead prospect worth nurturing rather than dispatching immediately. |
| Do you have architectural or design plans already prepared? | Separates real opportunities from leads that aren’t a fit yet. |
| Which systems, if any, need updating as part of this renovation? | Flagging structural, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC needs upfront tells you whether the project requires specialized trades or permits before your team commits to a visit. |
| What is the general condition of the home before renovation? | The starting condition of the home indicates how much unplanned repair work may surface once demolition begins, which affects both scoping and estimate accuracy. |

Common whole-home renovation lead scenarios
Full-house gut renovation
Homeowner selects the entire house, wants work to start as soon as possible, and confirms they're the decision-maker — the intake scores this near the top of the queue.
Occupied home, multiple rooms
Family plans to stay in the house during a multi-room renovation, so the intake captures occupancy status upfront so your team can plan access and phasing before the estimate.
Structural or systems overhaul
Homeowner flags structural changes alongside electrical and plumbing updates on a home in poor condition — the intake surfaces this as an urgent, scope-heavy lead worth a closer look.
Non-owner or unclear authorization
Someone other than the property owner submits the enquiry without confirming decision-making authority, which the intake weights lower so your team can verify before scheduling a visit.
Early-stage, single-room exploration
Homeowner is just exploring options for one room with no firm timeline — the intake still records scope and condition details for later follow-up without treating it as urgent.

Whole-Home Renovation lead-intake FAQs
Can the intake tell the difference between a single-room job and an actual whole-house project?
Yes — the renovation-scope question separates single-room requests from multi-room, one-major-area, and entire-house projects, so leads are scored and routed based on real project size rather than guesswork.
How does the intake handle homeowners who aren't sure if they need electrical, plumbing, or structural work?
The systems-update question is multi-select with a 'None of these' option, and the home-condition question includes 'Not sure,' so uncertain answers are still captured and passed along instead of blocking the submission.
Does the intake flag leads where the person filling it out might not be the actual decision-maker?
Yes — confirming the respondent is the property owner or authorized decision-maker carries real scoring weight, so submissions from someone without clear authority are weighted lower and worth verifying before you commit an estimate slot.
What happens with condo, townhouse, or multi-family submissions compared to single-family homes?
Property type is captured as its own question, so your team can see upfront whether a lead involves a single-family home, multi-family building, or condo/townhouse before deciding how to staff the estimate.
Does it matter if the home will be occupied during the renovation?
Yes — the intake asks whether the home is occupied, vacant, or partially occupied during the work, which your team can use to plan scheduling and access before the first visit.
How does project timeline affect lead priority?
Leads that want work to start as soon as possible or within 1-3 months score higher than those within 3-6 months or 'just exploring options,' so the more time-sensitive whole-home projects surface first in your CRM.
