Home Renovation Survival Kit – Because “It’ll Only Take a Weekend” Is the Biggest Lie in DIY
Renovations are exciting… until you’re three weeks in, knee-deep in drywall dust, and wondering if your contractor has actually moved into your guest room. That’s where our Home Renovation Survival Kit: Plan, Budget & Manage Like a Pro comes in—your all-in-one guide to keeping your sanity (and your budget) intact while the magic happens.
Inside the Kit (aka Your Renovation Lifeline):
Contractor Question Checklist: Ask the right questions so you don’t end up hiring the guy who “kind of” knows plumbing.
What Contractors Should Provide: Because vague promises don’t hang drywall.
Project Milestone Tracker: Celebrate every step forward (even if it’s just the walls finally going back up).
Budget Tracker: Keep your finances in check and avoid that awkward “oops, we’re out of money but halfway done” moment.
Communication Log: Capture every phone call, email, and “but you said…” so you’ve always got receipts.
Daily Schedule Planner: Keep track of when work starts, ends, and when your quiet sanity time can begin again.
Notes & Project Summary Pages: Jot down every idea, date, and “aha moment” in one place instead of on the back of receipts.
Perfect For:
First-Time Renovators: Turn chaos into a step-by-step plan (without losing your mind).
Seasoned Pros: Add structure to even the most complex projects and impress clients with your organization wizardry.
Why You’ll Love It:
Thorough, detailed, and easy-to-use.
Saves time, money, and stress (and maybe a few arguments too).
Keeps everything in one neat place instead of scattered across sticky notes, texts, and contractor scribbles.
Bottom Line: Don’t let your renovation turn into a horror story. With the Home Renovation Survival Kit, you’ll plan smarter, budget better, and manage like a pro.
