Default Renovation Realities

One thing about television shows, renovations look easy and happen quickly according to the show but this reality show tells it like it really is.

The projects are discussed, the budget decided on, and the time element for each job is set. But not in concrete, to pun a phrase.

Many times, the budget is gone over, the job doesnt get done on time, and tempers do tend to flare a little. Plus a lot of mistakes get made when it comes to the renovation and because of these mistakes, the time element is gone over quite a bit.

Things like a board being accidently dropped and going through a window adds to the budget and the time element. Also, when you see the truck pull up to deliver supplies for your job, and they end up being supplies for someone elses job can be costly time wise and money wise, when you consider having to pay help while you wait on your delivery.

All in all, this is a show that does "show it like it is".
