FAQs

How do I get set up?

If you've been invited to the Beta group, you'll receive emailed instructions to access the 3D app and Skipp portal, plus select your default cabinetry and palette. If you have any questions about these instructions, please email [email protected].

What design rules does RenoVision use?

Today, the design will only show the same kitchen footprint with a slightly optimized cabinetry runs based on the selected cabinetry. There are currently not options to change the footprint or layout of your RenoVision design. For that, you'd need to either download a 2020 file or use Skipp's design services.

Can I use RenoVision for refacing jobs?

Yes! RenoVision can be a good visual tool for refacing jobs, but note that it will not provide refacing pricing. In order to price a refacing job, you will need to use the refacing quote tool.

Can I edit my design pre-sets?

Yes! Click on the carrot next to your name in the upper right corner of the page and click "RenoVision Settings". Then you'll be able to select the cabinetry manufacturer and design palette. These preferences will update immediately, so you can always update this before you take a new scan to help customize your next RenoVision design.
