Are You Actually Ready to Renovate?

Find out before you spend a

dollar.

I've walked dozens of Fox Valley couples through forever-home renovations. The ones who love their
finished projects all showed up ready, not necessarily ready to break ground, but ready in the ways that actually matter.

This quiz scores your plan across the same six dimensions I privately evaluate before I take a project on.

why this matters

Most renovation stress doesn't come from bad contractors or blown budgets. It comes from couples who showed up underprepared, without a shared vision, or a clear scope.

This isn't about whether you're ready to start. It's about knowing exactly where your plan is solid and where you have gaps to close first.

One overall number is not a budget. Knowing the buckets — and a contingency — is what separates hopeful from ready.

A budget built from the bottom up

Partner alignment on non-negotiables

Two people, one vision. Finding out you disagree on the kitchen tile mid-demo is an avoidable crisis.

Decisions locked in before demo day

Most couples don't know which choices must be made before work starts. Discovering this mid-project costs real money.
