#7: Too Much, Too Soon
One of the main issues with going on one of the home renovation shows is not having the ability to say what you want. Sure, they will make your home and garden look amazing, but will they take into account all of the upkeep and attention these changes might require from the people living there?
The people that generally go on these shows are people who either can’t afford these renovations themselves or don’t have the time to do them… Both of these things should be taken into consideration when making changes because you wouldn’t want to end up with a once beautiful garden grown over and neglected a year later because it was too unrealistic for this family to tend to.
