Home Renovation: The Last 10%

We are at the point in our renovation where things seem to be moving really slowly. We are all tired of the whole thing and we just want it done. The last 10% of any renovation is the toughest.

The kitchen. So close yet…

With all the little details left to be done, with people in your space for the last 6 months and with the portable stove as your only kitchen appliance things start to get pretty stressful.

We're getting there!

We’re getting there!

Have you ever done a home renovation project? How did you get through the last 10%?
