renos: A Journey
Ben and I have worked most of our careers in trades so we know well the time, education and expertise it takes to become a skilled trades person. We also know many trades, specifically those traditionally considered “women's work,” are undervalued. This is why I never complain about bills for trade work, I know it's always worth the money.
That being said, when you're opening a brand new shop on a budget there will be things you absolutely have to pay for and other things you need to try and do yourself to save some money.
