Start a project from a template
Pick a ready-made set of rooms and tasks when you create a project, preview it first, and split a budget across its rooms.
Les articles d’aide sont pour l’instant en anglais. Le reste de RenovU est dans votre langue.
A template gives a new project its rooms and tasks, so you start with a plan rather than a blank page. You choose one at the top of the New project form, or in step 2 of the setup guide.
Choose a template#
- Select New project on the dashboard or the Projects page, or open New project.
- Under Start from, choose A blank project or one of the templates. Each shows how many rooms and tasks it adds.
- Select Preview on a template to see its rooms, its tasks and its Suggested budget split. Select Use this template to choose it.
- Fill in the rest of the form and select Create project.
The rooms and tasks are added in your language. From then on they're yours to rename, change or delete.
The templates#
- Kitchen renovation: strip out, refit and finish a kitchen, from measuring up to the electrical certificate
- Bathroom refit: a full bathroom, with a new suite, tiling, waterproofing and ventilation
- Whole-house redecoration: paint and refresh every room, with the prep and finishing touches
- Loft conversion: plans and permissions through to steels, dormer, stairs and sign-off
On the Free plan you can use Kitchen renovation and Bathroom refit. The other two show Not in your plan and come with Premium or Professional.
Split a budget across the rooms#
When you choose a template, a Total budget field appears beside the currency.
- Enter the total you plan to spend.
- Each room gets its share of it, in the proportions the template suggests.
- Leave it blank to set budgets later.
Room budgets need Premium or Professional. On Free, the total becomes the project's budget, without the split by room.
Save your own template#
On Professional you can save a project as a template and reuse it.
- Open the project and choose the Settings tab.
- Under Save as a template, enter a Template name and select Save as template.
It saves the rooms, the tasks with their subtasks, due dates and dependencies, and the budget split by room. It doesn't save people, progress, amounts spent, photos or notes. Your templates show as Yours in the template list, and only you can see them.
