How RenoAtlas produces its data

RenoAtlas separates observed data, calculations, official requirements and assumptions so an estimate is never presented as a quote or a regulatory requirement.

Sources

Codes, permits, programs, recalls and public data link primarily to official authorities. Price observations retain their date, retailer, unit and geographic scope.

Calculations

Calculators expose assumptions and use browser-entered values. A result is a planning aid, not a quote, design or certification.

Updates

Changing data carries a date. The build does not manufacture fresh dates when the underlying content has not actually been reviewed.

Corrections

Stale sources and errors are corrected in the source data, then the entire site is rebuilt and audited before publication.

What RenoAtlas does not claim

The site does not replace licensed professionals, municipal authorities, inspectors, insurers, laboratories or local quotes. Higher-risk pages identify stop points and professional checks.

Privacy

Property and project tools primarily use local browser storage. RenoAtlas measurement events do not include values entered into forms.
