Is this a quote or an estimate?
It's a detailed scope of works with indicative pricing — more accurate than a budget estimate, but not a fixed-price builder quote. Think of it as the document you give to builders so they can quote you properly. Most clients see returns within ±7–12% of our scope.
What if I only want to renovate one room?
The Essentials package covers 1–2 rooms and starts at $225. Perfect for a single kitchen, bathroom, or bedroom renovation.
How accurate is the Yembo self-scan?
Yembo's AI-powered scanning is accurate to within a few centimetres for most residential rooms. Our estimator reviews every scan before the scope is finalised, and we flag anything that looks off. If a measurement is critical (e.g., for cabinetry), we'll note it as "confirm on-site."
What does "4-tier" mean?
Every room is priced at four finish levels: Budget (functional, builder-grade), Rental (market-standard investment quality), Value Add (quality renovation, homeowner-grade), and High End (premium spec, luxury finish). Same scope, different product selections. You choose what fits your budget and ambition.
Can I use this scope to get builder quotes?
Absolutely — that's exactly what it's designed for. Hand the PDF to any builder and they'll have everything they need to give you a fixed-price quote. No more "we'll get back to you" or vague allowances.
Do you do the renovation work?
No — we're independent estimators, not builders. That's what makes the scope trustworthy. We have no incentive to upsell or steer you toward any particular builder or product. We just give you the numbers.
What does "police-cleared estimator" mean?
All of our on-site estimators hold a current National Police Clearance. This means they've been background checked and verified — important when someone is entering your home to take measurements.
What is Custom Blend?
After receiving your 4-tier scope, you can use our Custom Blend tool to mix and match tiers across different rooms. Want a High End kitchen but Budget bedrooms? Custom Blend lets you build your own combination and see an updated total instantly.
