Custom Built
Forget the Price Tag — What’s Your Comfort Number?
In this episode of Custom Built, we’re talking about one of the scariest words in any renovation: the budget. I know it makes a lot of people uncomfortable, but avoiding it is the fastest way to end up with a stressful, messy project.
I’ll walk you through why knowing your budget upfront is non-negotiable, how to separate your feelings about money from the numbers themselves, and what realistic costs look like for kitchens, bathrooms, and other renovations. We’ll also cover how to set clear expectations with your contractor, spot red flags early, and make sure you’re not nickel and diming your way into frustration.
If the thought of talking dollars and cents makes you want to run for the hills, this one’s for you because your budget can actually be empowering once you face it head on.
