What’s one renovation upgrade you thought was a waste of money but ended up loving?
I’m a contractor and I’ve seen homeowners hesitate on certain upgrades because they seem unnecessary at first.
A few examples:
- Heated bathroom floors
- Larger shower niches
- Extra outlets in the kitchen
- Under-cabinet lighting
- Soft-close cabinets and drawers
Interestingly, some of the things people almost cut from the budget end up being the features they love the most years later.
For homeowners who have renovated recently:
What upgrade did you almost skip, but now couldn’t imagine living without?
And on the flip side, what’s something you spent good money on that turned out to be disappointing?
I’m curious to hear real experiences before recommending certain upgrades to future clients. 😊
