Whether you’re upgrading your kitchen or adding a new floor, careful planning ensures your renovation stays within budget and enhances property value.

• Prioritize areas that increase value, such as kitchens, bathrooms, or front elevation.

2. Set a Realistic Budget

• Request a detailed proposal outlining materials and timelines.

4. Manage the Project
