Sent when I have something worth saying. No schedule.

No cross-promotion. No filler. What I'm deciding in my own building, what it cost, and what I would tell somebody about to make the same decision.

Sign up and I'll send you The Decisions Your Renovation Makes Without You, five pages on which choices are nearly free this week and expensive forever after, and how to find out which week you're in.

The eight stages every renovation moves through, so you can be exact about where yours is. The things that disappear behind the walls: plywood, doors, outlets, thresholds, six inches of hallway. A kitchen worked through as the example. And one page for your contractor, four lines long.
