Bathroom Remodel Software

Bathrooms are high-cost, high-risk projects packed into a small space. The margins are tight, the surprises are common (hidden water damage, plumbing issues, waterproofing complexity), and the change orders pile up. One untracked cost can turn a profitable bathroom into a break-even job.
Phixmo is built to protect margin on exactly these projects. Accurate estimates, real-time job costing, change order approval, and a customer portal that keeps homeowners informed without eating your time.
Bathroom remodels have characteristics that generic tools don't handle well.
Bathrooms have some of the highest cost-per-square-foot in residential construction, and the surprises (water damage, plumbing, waterproofing) eat margin fast. You need tight cost tracking to stay profitable.
Homeowners change their minds on tile, fixtures, and finishes constantly during bathroom remodels. Without a change order system that enforces approval before work, these changes become unbilled margin leaks.
Bathrooms have many cost categories in a small space. A missed line item (waterproofing, exhaust fan, drywall repair) comes straight out of profit. Accurate, complete estimates are essential.
Bathroom remodels disrupt a home's most-used room. Homeowners want to know what's happening and when. A customer portal reduces the constant check-in calls.
Six capabilities aimed at the thin-margin, change-heavy reality of bathrooms.
Describe the bathroom or upload plans, and get a complete estimate covering every category: demo, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and finishes. The AI includes the categories contractors forget, like waterproofing and drywall repair, so your bids are complete.
Track every dollar against the budget as the job runs. With bathrooms' thin margins, catching a cost overrun early is the difference between profit and break-even. See labor, materials, and subs against budget in real time.
When the homeowner wants different tile or an upgraded fixture, document it, send it for approval, and bill it. The customer approves before you do the work. No more eating the cost of mid-project changes.
The homeowner sees progress, approves changes, and views invoices without calling you every day. For a disruptive project like a bathroom, this transparency matters.
Your crew clocks in, submits receipts (so every material run is captured), and logs photos for free.
A completed bathroom remodel with happy homeowners becomes a verified review with photos, building your reputation for the next bid.
Three ways, all aimed at the thin-margin reality of bathrooms.
The AI estimation includes the categories most often forgotten on bathrooms (waterproofing, exhaust ventilation, drywall repair, contingency for hidden damage), so your bid covers the real cost.
Because bathroom margins are thin, a single overrun matters. Job costing shows you the moment labor or materials trend over budget, while you can still act.
Bathroom remodels generate constant changes. The approval workflow ensures every change is documented and billed, so the tile upgrade the homeowner requested doesn't come out of your pocket.
