What's the 30% rule in remodeling?

The '30% rule' isn't a standard industry term, but some homeowners might use it to budget for major renovations, suggesting a significant portion of a home's value.

Renovating vs. Remodeling: What's the difference?

Renovating often means restoring something to a good state, like fixing a leaky faucet or repainting. Remodeling usually involves changing the structure or layout, like knocking down a wall or reconfiguring a kitchen. Fontana pros can guide you on which approach fits your goals and budget for your home.
