Home reno’s fun, but owners often mess things up for workers. Plumbers, electricians, and builders see the same issues all the time. Here’s their insider info.
Changing Plans Later
Switching wall spots, tiles, or paint after work starts causes delays and costs more.
Cheap Stuff
Bargain materials save money now, but don’t hold up. Spend more for stuff that lasts.
No Permits
Skipping permits to save time can lead to fees, delays, or redoing work.
Cluttered Workspace
Leaving furniture in the way slows things down. Clear the area before they get there.
Rushed Schedule
Don’t expect a full reno in a week. Good work takes time.
Micromanaging
Checking in is fine, but don’t stress the crew. You hired them for their skills.
In Conclusion
Avoid reno problems with good planning, realistic expectations, and clear talking. When you respect the workers, they do great work, and everyone’s happy.
