Anxiety most often results from fear of the unknown and increases in project costs. This is when remodelitis™ kicks in, discouraging you from moving forward with a remodel project. Enlisting the help of a Renovation Planner to educate you about the remodeling process will enlighten you as to what to expect, thereby reducing anxiety. Your Renovation Planners’ involvement with pre-construction planning (i.e. before hiring an architect/designer or a contractor) and overseeing the project through completion is an invaluable way to control costs and avoid unnecessary change orders and schedule delays that significantly increase project costs.
