An accomplished leader in the media industry, Richard Graziano most recently served as the president of GM WPIX-TV for Tribune Media in New York. Outside of work, Richard Graziano enjoys buying and renovating homes.
Renovating a home is a big project, but some mistakes can set you back significantly in both time and money. Following are just a few common mistakes new home renovators make:
- Rushing: like most projects, home renovation requires a great deal of planning and forethought. If you rush into a project, you will be more likely to experience complications that may cost a great deal of time and money. Set aside an adequate amount of time to plan out your project before jumping in.
- Being cheap: saving money is an important part of staying within your budget, but there are some situations when spending the extra money is necessary. More expensive tools may last longer, and more expensive materials may create a more sophisticated finished look. At the same time, make sure you don’t spend your entire budget on unnecessary expenses.
- Bad measurements: when you’re renovating a home, you need good measurements for everything from tile and floorboards to cabinets. Always measure a space multiple times before cutting any product. Even minor measuring mistakes can result in huge problems when you start putting everything in place.
