First and foremost, it is an investment: The average 
cost of remodelling, from large to minor, would be a 
substantial sum. Aside from that, there's the tough 
challenge of leading a team of designers, architects, 
contractors, and subcontractors for a project where 
you may or may not have any technical competence.
However, if you can successfully complete a 
makeover, it can be one of the most rewarding 
investments you can make in your house. So, before 
you embark on a restoration project, have a look at 
this list of the top renovation blunders to avoid and 
how to avoid them.
1. Taking the Job Too Seriously
You've watched enough home improvement shows to believe that a home can 
be built in a week. However, television is not real life, and you must leave time 
to plan, complete each stage completely, and deal with the unexpected in your 
personal remodelling.
For a large project, a 3 to 6 month window isn't excessive if properly planned. 
Allowing ample time—and padding it with a few weeks—will allow you to 
properly plan a project, organise a team, and work through any issues that arise 
with less stress.
2. Ignoring the dynamics of 
the team
In terms of putting together a team: This could involve an architect, specialist 
designer (such as a kitchen or bath designer), contractor, decorator, and others, 
depending on your project.
It's preferable if you can gather these people as soon as feasible. People frequently make 
the mistake of working with an architect and going far into a plan before contacting a 
contractor, only to discover later that the project is over budget. The sooner you put 
together the team and 
start them working together, the less likely you are to run into complications or problems 
later.
3. Ignoring Your Gut Feelings
As you assemble the team, do your homework and interview many contractors 
and other professionals. Although they may have solid working relationships 
with people they can recommend, you should see these contractors in person 
and speak with at least three to five people before making a decision.
4. Poor communication
Communication is essential with your employees, your team, and your partner. 
Remember to go in with your eyes wide open and an open mind! The project 
might become a kind of blank canvas for any troubles that present in the 
relationship.
If you and your spouse have a good relationship with your contractor, he or she can help 
you and your partner work through any disputes, and having separate talks is discouraged. 
It's also crucial to figure out how to interact with your contractor. You'll want to know how to 
contact them after the work begins, whether it's by text, phone, or email once a week.
