Zaras for Remodeling

The kitchen has to work by Thanksgiving. That is the date everyone remembers.

Selections, allowances, and a finish date the customer already told their family.

Kitchen & bathMulti-phase buildsChange orders

The deadline is a holiday.

Remodeling peaks in October and stays above its own average through December, at the point in the year when outdoor trades are falling away. Nothing about the weather closes an indoor job — what closes it is a date someone has already announced at home. January is the hangover.

What carries job to job: the selection list the allowance the promised date.

One week in October. Three jobs, one record.

A tile chosen above the allowance, a long-lead item reordered before it moves the schedule, and a punch walk against the date already promised — three different jobs, one operating record.

Tue

Chosen above the allowance, with the difference priced the same day rather than discovered at the end.

The allowance board and the finish date.

What was allowed for against what was actually chosen, and the one date the whole job is measured against — the finish date is not chosen, it is decided by the longest lead time sitting on the allowance board. Zaras runs both from the same record.

What Zaras runs for remodeling.

The record, not the clipboard — every remodel from the estimate to paid, with nothing re-keyed into a second system.

Overruns priced at selectionthe difference priced the day it is chosen, not discovered on the last invoice.

Lead times on ordered itemsthe one item that decides the schedule, tracked from order to delivery.

Progress billing with allowance reconciliationbilling pulls straight from the allowance board the selection opened.

Invoicing, payments, QuickBooks syncthe final invoice reconciles every allowance, no separate spreadsheet to keep straight.

Estimate → selections → order → install → punch → paid — every remodel, one record.

Straight answers.

What does it cost?

Plans and prices are public on the pricing page — no sales call to get a number.

Does it work with QuickBooks?

Yes. Invoices and payments flow straight into QuickBooks — no double entry, no bookkeeper fights.

What happens to my data?

It’s yours, both directions. Customers, open selections, and allowance balances come in with you when you join — and everything exports, any time.

Can it run commercial work?

Yes — multi-unit and property-manager renovation work with per-unit records and NET-terms billing lives on the same record as your residential book.

What size shop is this for?

Remodelers running 1–40 crews — from an owner-operator to a multi-truck shop.

What does private beta mean?

We onboard a limited number of shops at a time. Request an invite, fit is reviewed within 24 hours with a reply either way, and accepted shops get guided onboarding — pricebook and customer list loaded with you, not dumped on you.
