Renovation Design Reimagined

We're a team of designers and builders who believe getting professional renovation plans shouldn't require a $5,000 retainer and a 3-month wait.

Our Mission

REMODPOD was founded on a simple idea: if homeowners can capture a 3D model of their home from their phone, they shouldn't need to pay thousands for an architect to come measure it again.

We combine the latest in consumer 3D scanning technology with experienced renovation designers to deliver professional, engineer-ready plans at a fraction of the traditional cost — all without a single site visit.

Whether you're refreshing a bathroom, adding a bedroom, or planning a second story, we make professional design accessible to every homeowner in every state.

Why REMODPOD?

We do things differently than a traditional architect or online design service.

Real 3D Data

We work from your actual 3D scan — not guesswork. Every wall, doorway, and window is captured to real-world dimensions for accurate design.

Engineer-Ready Plans

Our deliverables are reviewed for constructability and code compliance. When a local engineer stamp is required, we provide referrals to get you there fast.

No Site Visits

Skip the scheduling, the waiting, and the $500 "initial consultation" fee. Scan your home on your schedule, upload, and we get to work.

Transparent Pricing

Five clear project categories. You know exactly what you'll pay before you upload. No hourly billing, no change-order surprises.

Nationwide Service

Because we work remotely from your 3D scan, we serve homeowners in all 50 states. Same quality whether you're in Manhattan or Montana.

Built for Renovations

We're not a decorating service or a new-construction firm. We specialize in renovations, additions, and conversions — the messiest part of design.

Sarah Afflerbach

Founder & CEO — Licensed Architect

A licensed architect with over 20 years of experience in the industry, Sarah has owned and operated her own architectural firm for 15 years. That hands-on expertise — from schematic design through construction administration — is the foundation REMODPOD is built on.

After two decades of watching homeowners pay thousands just for initial consultations and wait months for basic plans, she knew there had to be a better way. By combining her architectural expertise with 3D scanning technology that's already in people's pockets, Sarah founded REMODPOD to deliver professional renovation designs remotely, faster, and at a price that makes sense.

What We Stand For

The principles that drive every project we take on.

01
Accessibility
Professional renovation design should be available to every homeowner, not just those with $10K budgets.
02
Accuracy
Real 3D data means real measurements. We never guess dimensions or estimate layouts.
03
Transparency
Clear pricing, clear timelines, clear deliverables. You know exactly what you're getting before you pay.
04
Quality
Lower cost doesn't mean lower standards. Every plan is reviewed for constructability and code compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most.

You download a 3D scanning app (like Polycam, Scaniverse, or Matterport Capture) on a compatible iPhone, iPad, or Android device. Walk through the rooms you want redesigned, and the app creates a 3D model. Export it and upload it to us — that's it. Most apps are free to download, with free trials or low-cost scans. See our scanning guide for specific device compatibility and step-by-step instructions.
LiDAR gives the best results and is available on iPhone 12 Pro and newer Pro models, plus recent iPad Pro models. If you don't have LiDAR, photogrammetry apps like Polycam and Scaniverse can still create usable scans on iPhone 8+ and ARCore-compatible Android phones (most 2019+ devices). You can also use Matterport-compatible 360 cameras. We'll let you know if your scan needs improvement before you pay.
Our plans are reviewed for constructability and building code compliance but are not stamped by a licensed engineer. If your local building department requires a professional engineer (PE) stamp, we can refer you to licensed engineers in your state who can review and stamp the plans — typically for a fraction of what a full architectural service would charge.
Standard turnaround is 2–4 weeks depending on your project category and complexity. Need it faster? Our rush delivery option (50% surcharge) cuts the timeline in half. We'll confirm your specific timeline during the project brief review.
Every project includes one round of revisions at no extra cost. If you need additional changes beyond that, extra revisions are available for $79 each. We work hard to get it right the first time by asking detailed questions in your project brief.
We review every scan before work begins. If your scan needs improvement, we'll let you know exactly what to fix and give you a chance to rescan — before any charges. Our scanning guide covers everything you need for a great capture.
