To do it yourself or not to do it yourself: the eternal question. Balancing all aspects of your life can be a challenge in and of itself, so you have to be sure you’re willing to take on the commitment — or share the credit. Because you don’t remodel with the intent to take off in a year, you want something you’ll be comfortable with, and that you can really feel proud of. So don’t let pride get in your way if you find that an independent contractor works best for you!

If you can afford to invest in someone who knows what they’re doing, it may end up saving you in the long run.
