Pricing at a Glance
Houzz Pro
Not published — quoted after a demo
Houzz Pro does not publish firm rates; pricing varies by trade and is quoted after a demo. Houzz's own Capterra listing shows a free plan and a Pro plan at $399/mo, with other tiers quote-only. Third-party trackers report lower entry tiers (roughly $55–$200/mo) for some trades. Treat all of these as estimates, not quotes.

Moving from Houzz Pro to RemodelFin
Before you move, check what Houzz Pro lets you export. According to Houzz Pro's own blog:
- The Project Tracker can be exported to Excel, and tear sheets, Excel reports and FF&Es can be downloaded from the Project Tracker.
We did not find an official Houzz Pro guide for a full export of clients, projects and estimates. Ask Houzz Pro support before you cancel.
What RemodelFin does and does not import
RemodelFin does not currently include a CSV importer, so nothing from Houzz Pro is imported automatically. You re-create your clients, cost codes and active jobs in RemodelFin. RemodelFin can export your jobs, expenses and time entries to CSV, so your own data is never locked in.
A low-risk way to switch
- Export what you can from Houzz Pro first, and keep it as your record.
- Start your next new job in RemodelFin rather than your busiest one.
- Keep finishing existing jobs in Houzz Pro until they close.
- Move over fully once the pilot job's costs and margin match what you expect.
Export options change, so confirm in your own account before you cancel. Checked 2026-10-12. Sources: Houzz Pro: Improved Houzz Pro features.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Houzz Pro cost compared to RemodelFin?
Houzz Pro doesn't publish firm pricing — it's quoted after a demo and varies by trade. Houzz's own Capterra listing shows a Pro plan at $399/month, with other tiers quote-only; third-party trackers report lower entry tiers for some trades. Treat these as estimates, not confirmed quotes. RemodelFin publishes its prices — from $29/month, with every feature on every plan — and needs no demo.
Is Houzz Pro good for job costing?
Houzz Pro's job costing is basic expense tracking layered onto a platform built primarily for lead generation and 3D design. RemodelFin's job costing is built around atomic financial transactions and AIA draw reports specifically for tracking margin on remodeling jobs.
Does RemodelFin have a 3D design tool like Houzz Pro?
No. Houzz Pro's proprietary 3D visualizer is one area where it's the stronger choice — RemodelFin doesn't offer design visualization. RemodelFin's focus is financial tracking after the job is sold, not selling the job itself.
Should I use Houzz Pro or RemodelFin?
If you need lead generation and 3D mood boards to win design-led work, Houzz Pro serves that — it functions as a marketing channel as much as software. If you've already got the work booked and need to see real job costs and margin as the project runs, RemodelFin is built specifically for that.
Honest verdict: when to choose Houzz Pro instead
We believe in helping contractors make the right call — even if that means recommending a competitor. Houzz Pro is likely the better fit if you:
- → Need lead generation — Houzz Pro is a marketing channel as much as software, and RemodelFin is not one at all
- → Sell design-led work where 3D mood boards, selections, and client presentation win the job
- → Are still filling the calendar, because a costing tool cannot help with jobs you have not sold
RemodelFin is purpose-built for small-to-mid remodeling contractors ($200k–$5M revenue) who need real-time job costing without enterprise complexity. If that's you, we're likely the better fit.
