For construction and renovation companies
Run renovation work in one place.
Win and run renovation work with costs, permissions and progress on one record, and hand back a documented property.
Available first: free listings for renovated stock. Project, cost and permission tools follow in Phase 2.
Example renovation budget for a fictional flat refurbishment in Glasgow: budget, committed and actual cost, recorded variations and the building warrant. This is a planned feature, coming in Phase 2.
The problem today
Renovation work runs on phones and spreadsheets.
Costs in several places
Quotes, orders and invoices sit in different spreadsheets and inboxes.
Permission rules vary
Planning, permitted development and building control differ across the four nations.
Variations agreed informally
Changes to scope are hard to evidence later.
No record at the end
The client receives keys, not a documented property.

Built for all four nations
Planning systems differ by nation, and so does what counts as permitted development.
| Nation | Applies | Responsible body |
|---|---|---|
| England | Local planning authorities; applications via the Planning Portal | Local planning authority |
| Scotland | Scottish planning system; applications via ePlanning | Planning authority |
| Wales | Welsh planning system; applications via Planning Wales | Local planning authority |
| Northern Ireland | Northern Ireland planning system; NI Planning Portal | Council or Department for Infrastructure |
PropSage applies the rules for the nation where the property is. Rates and rules change; we show the version and effective date we used.
