It's not always obvious the moment your space stops feeling right for you. It's not like the roof caves in (hopefully). It's a slow burn. A window that won't close, the tap you have to wiggle, the bathroom that fogs up even with the ventilation open. Minor things, really. But they wear you down.

Then one day, you're standing in your hallway — probably barefoot — and thinking, *okay, this layout needs help*.

That's kind of how fixing up the place starts. Not always with architects. Sometimes it's just frustration. Or boredom. Or the realization that your setup could be doing... better.

People imagine renovations like a TV moment. And yeah, sometimes it is. Skip bins, builders who never text back, and stories involving utes, dogs, or “supply delays.” But sometimes? It's quieter. A functional tap. Doesn't have to be a full production.

I've seen friends tear through walls. Kitchens ripped out, carpets out before they finished their toast. And others? Just paint. Both are valid. There's no correct path. Only what you more info can stand.

Money — yeah. That's the sticky bit. You think you've planned it out, and then... you don't. Double the budget. Then cry a little. Because when you pull up tiles and find something weird, you don't want to delay.

Anyway. Whether you're gutting the place, or just making peace with the walls, it's all progress. Some of it's boring. But walking through your garage and thinking, *yeah, this place gets me now* — that's worth something.

Even if the tiles are crooked. That's just character.
