How does Modernize work?

Modernize is where homeowners get matched with contractors.

You can choose to forego research all together and let Modernize match you with up to four contractors, or you can browse our contractor directory and request a quote from someone you like. Either way, you’ll meet a vetted, insured professional with availability for your project.

We are also a trusted source for informational guides and articles that empower homeowners to get home improvement projects done.

Getting quotes from three to four contractors is the magic number for finding the best price on your project.

I requested a quote/quotes. When will I hear from contractors?

Look out for an email from Modernize once you’ve requested quotes. We will provide you details on who you will be hearing from so you can start to learn more about them right away!

Our contractors will call or text you as soon as they’ve reviewed your quote, which can be anywhere from two minutes to 24 hours.

I have a question and can't find an answer on your website. How can I contact you?

Give us a call on our Homeowner Support line at 888-213-0422.

This will connect you to our monitored voicemail, and you will hear back via email within one to two business days.

You can also refer to our Contact page for more options on how to reach us.

Where does the cost information on your website come from?

Modernize powers cost information featured in cost calculators and guides using evolving AI technology, which closely analyzes real homeowner experiences and project cost data across the United States. We validate those estimates using real time data provided to us by our trusted home improvement partners, who actively work to complete projects for homeowners across the country. You can learn more about that methodology here.
