I didn’t get multiple quotes like everyone says you should. This entire process got me thinking: What if I didn’t live in a small town where I knew a contractor? And if I’m being honest with myself, how could I even be sure that I was getting a fair deal from the contractor I knew? Within a week or two, the “simple” renovation was underway. Luckily, we knew a contractor who had done some work for us many times before, so I gave him a call. Since my personal toolbox included a hammer, a stud finder, a multi-bit screwdriver, and an old jam jar full of random screws and nails (maybe at some point I will invest in some real tools…), I was clearly in no position to complete any of these renovations on my own. About two years ago, my wife suggested we invest a little money in our home a simple renovation of the entire main floor, including an updated bathroom, a few less walls, one or two extra support beams, new floors, and a brand-new kitchen, would increase the value of our forever-home and make us both much happier.
