Season 1 Episode 45

Dreaming of a remodel but not the chaos? In this episode of Designing in 5D, Jodi Peterman sits down with EED lead designers Haylee Peel and Ashtyn Chance to map out a realistic home renovation timeline—from the very first call to the final walkthrough. We unpack the biggest myths, why pre-planning + budget clarity matter, when to move out vs. phase, how value engineering (done right) protects design quality, and what our 5D Process and concierge service look like on real projects.

You’ll learn:

  • How long the pre-planning, floor plan, selections, and edit rounds actually take
  • The difference between value engineering and “cheapening” your project
  • Why a 10% contingency keeps you sane
  • Smart strategies for temporary housing (and when to start looking)
  • How to keep communication tight with weekly recaps, site walks, and clear docs
