PICKING FINISHES, MADE SIMPLE
The tile underfoot. The counter you gather around. The lighting that brings it together. Choose the finishes you love from options your contractor curates, with their guidance and every approved choice kept in one place.
Professionals: guide your clients. DIY owners: start your own project with a 14-day no-card Starter trial, then $29/month or $290/year upfront. Invited clients: join for free through your project invitation.

Explore the finishes journalFOR CONTRACTORS
Curate a short list for each room, give clients the guidance they need, and review their choices in one place. Keep questions with the finish they concern and record approvals, so everyone can refer to the same decisions.
FOR DESIGNERS
Bring your material palette into a room-by-room short list clients can understand. Share product details, keep questions alongside each finish, and review choices with a record of approvals. Create a professional account to guide your clients' selections.
HOW IT WORKS
Bring your finish decisions together, room by room. Create a project for the spaces you’re finishing, whether you’re a contractor, designer, architect or DIY owner.
Collect products, photos and details in one place. Compare your options and build a short list for each finish.
Work through your options and make your choices. Keep questions, comments and decisions beside each finish so everything stays together.
Review the choices and finalize your finish plan. Once every selection is approved, bring the recorded choices together in a finish binder.

WHY NOT THE BIG SYSTEMS
You don't need a whole project-management system to talk about tile. FinishWise focuses on finish choices, questions and approvals. Scheduling, invoicing and time tracking stay with your contractor's other tools.
The materials and fixtures that shape how a remodel looks and feels: flooring, countertops, tile, faucets, lighting, paint and cabinet hardware. FinishWise keeps those decisions organized with your contractor.
Those run the whole project; picking finishes is one feature among dozens. FinishWise only does finishes, so it's simpler to start and easier for homeowners to actually use.
You have two paths. Start your own project as a DIY owner with a 14-day no-card Starter trial for one active project, then subscribe at $29/month or $290/year, billed upfront. Or use your contractor's invitation with the email address assigned to you to join their project for free. Invited clients do not need a paid subscription. Already joined? Sign in.
Yes. Share products with links and photos, then work with your professional to review fit, price and availability together. On an invited project, your contractor must enable client suggestions before you can send new finds; your choices and their review remain explicit. DIY owners add their own options and finalize their own decisions.
Yes. Subscribers, including DIY owners, can track finish budgets against their choices as decisions get made. Invited clients see only the pricing and allowances their contractor chooses to share—not hidden allowances or private costs. It is a tracking aid, not a guarantee of final cost or schedule.
The locked record of every approved pick — what it is, what it costs, which room — that the whole crew builds from.
