You know the feeling—you look around your place and think, “This could be better”. That yellowed wall paint you've been pretending not to see for months. The kitchen layout that drives you mad. Maybe the entryway that somehow feels too small and too big at once.

You say, *“We'll get to it.”* And then you don't — until you get serious.

Renovating a place isn't all that glamorous. It's messy, not cheap, loud, and filled with decisions you never thought you'd care about. Switch plate covers suddenly feel like life-altering decisions. Who knew trim size could be so frustrating?

But still, it's worth it.

Not just because a fresh floorplan makes selling easier, or because insulated windows make the house cozier. It's worth it because your house should make your life easier. here The way you live in it — it shapes your mood.
