In this episode of How To Renovate, I’m helping you see around corners when it comes to your renovation budget. It's so easy to focus on the big, shiny items like kitchens and bathrooms — but what about the hidden costs that quietly creep up on you? Today, we dive into the often-overlooked expenses that can derail your project if you're not prepared, from the real costs of late-stage changes to sneaky permit fees and unexpected accommodation costs. Grab a pen and paper, because this is one episode you'll want to 
take notes on! 

In this episode, amonst many other things! I cover an example of the cost of making changes once work is underway — and why it's so expensive, and how creeping costs like taxes, permits, insurance, and even parking can blow your budget.
