BUILT ON TRUST: A Homeowners Guide To Smarter Renovation

Behind every successful renovation is a foundation of trust—between homeowner, contractor, and designer. In this episode, we walk through the essential steps homeowners should take before starting a construction or renovation project, with a focus on building the right team and managing expectations from day one.

We cover what to look for in a contractor, what a solid construction contract should include, and the common oversights that derail project scopes and timelines. You'll also learn why bringing your designer and contractor together early matters, how to navigate insurance and liability, and what to expect after the work is done. Whether you're planning a small update or a major overhaul, this guide will help you make informed decisions and build with confidence.
