Renovating your home is a pretty exciting journey – it’s your chance to breathe new life into your space and even boost the value of your property.

The chaos of renovation
Renovations are inherently disorderly. Between contractors wielding bulky tools, piles of building materials, and furniture pushed into corners, your home can quickly resemble a construction site. This chaos creates a host of problems, including:
- Damaged or dusty valuables: Without proper storage, furniture, electronics, and appliances can easily get scratched or coated in dust during construction.
- Disorganisation: Tools or materials may get misplaced, making it harder to stay on schedule.
- Inefficient workspaces: Tradespeople need plenty of room to work efficiently, and cramped conditions with displaced furniture can delay your project.
While these issues are common, they don’t have to derail your renovation.
