Podcasts about home renovations

Before Jamie Haller launched her namesake shoe and apparel brand, she worked behind the scenes in the fashion industry in corporate retail. In the 2000s, she designed pieces for big brands of the era like Wet Seal, Guess, and Bebe. After learning the ins and outs of fashion production at a macro level, Haller left the corporate world to work for smaller brands where she had more creative control over her work, allowing her to hone her style as a designer. During the pandemic, she wanted to venture outside of what she knew and landed in a different realm of design: home renovation. Her eye for fashion translated well in the world of interiors, allowing her to gain clients quickly and make a name for herself in the space. Haller's love for trying new things also led her to a new category of fashion she hadn't yet conquered: shoes. In 2020, she launched her namesake shoe line and released her now-famous penny loafer style that has become an everyday staple for countless fashion insiders. She later returned to her roots when she expanded into apparel with a line she created with women like her in mind. Today, she's brought the many skills and talents she's acquired over the years together with her first storefront in Montecito, California, where you can shop her brand in an intimate space she designed herself.

Hiring a contractor isn't as easy as scrolling through your dating app and swiping right—trust me, I learned that the hard way! In this wild ride of an episode, we're joined by Joseph Brinkman, an attorney who shines a light on the chaotic world of contractor hiring and real estate law. We dig into everything from dodging liability like it's a bad ex to deciphering contracts that are about as clear as mud. Spoiler alert: if you think you can just grab the cheapest guy off Craigslist and everything will magically go smoothly, then buckle up, because we're about to expose the absurdity of that idea. So, grab your coffee, settle in, and let's navigate this construction minefield together!Ever thought hiring a contractor was as easy as picking a pizza topping? Well, buckle up, because Eric G, John Dudley, and attorney Joseph Brinkman are about to take you on a wild ride through the chaotic world of contractor hiring and real estate law. They dive into the nitty-gritty of why you shouldn't just swipe right on the first contractor you see on Craigslist. Spoiler alert: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. From understanding liability (you might be responsible if they fall off a ladder) to deciphering contracts that are murkier than that lake you swim in, this episode is here to shed light on the often absurd realities of home improvement projects. They discuss how to vet contractors properly, the importance of communicating expectations, and why a solid contract is your best friend when things take a turn for the worse.Joseph Brinkman shares his wisdom on navigating the legal labyrinth of hiring contractors, emphasizing the importance of doing your homework. The guys share stories that will make your jaw drop—like the time a homeowner had to call the cops because of a contractor dispute that escalated to fisticuffs! They stress the importance of having clear communication and a vibe check before you sign any dotted line, because, believe me, no one wants to end up in a legal battle over a bathroom remodel. This episode is packed with practical advice, sharp humor, and a lot of laughs as they navigate the often ridiculous world of home renovations. So grab your coffee, sit back, and prepare to learn about the dos and don'ts of hiring contractors—because let's be real, you're gonna need it!Takeaways: Hiring a contractor isn't as easy as swiping right on a dating app; it's a full-on relationship with all the complications. If you think hiring a contractor who offers the lowest bid is a good idea, just remember: you get what you pay for, and sometimes that means chaos. Navigating contracts in real estate can feel like deciphering your ex's mixed signals; if you're not careful, you might end up in a mess. Always do your due diligence before hiring; checking references and past work can save you from a nightmare scenario later on. Communication is key; make sure to vibe check your contractor to avoid future misunderstandings that could lead to literal fistfights. A contract is like a prenup for your home project—make sure it outlines everything clearly, including what happens if things go sideways.

Who hasn't heard about energy-efficient renovation without really knowing where to begin? Between the jargon, the costs, and the red tape, it can feel overwhelming. That is why we are bringing Xavier Gaucher onto On the Way. He is the founder of La Fresque de la Rénovation, and he is here to show us that renovation is not just about fixing up a house –it is about tackling a collective challenge that impacts our comfort, our wallets, and our planet. In this episode, Xavier shares his story, his vision, and a clear roadmap for making energy-efficient renovation doable–and successful. It is a conversation packed with practical tips for anyone ready to cut through the noise and finally take action. If you missed it, check out our previous episode with Catherine Leleu from The Future is Neutral, where we dive into the circular economy in the auto industry. Different sector, but a shared ambition: building a future that is smarter, leaner, and more sustainable. You can listen to this episode –and all our others– on your favorite podcast app. Enjoy!Hébergé par Ausha.

This week I went to town renovating a section of my house. But, like all home renovations it spread from one section of the house to the next. Being a big believer in the theory of Feng Shui I used that to redo this room. But, not only did I redo the room, I uncovered old shame, fear, embarrassment that lived in this room that desperately needed a redo.Sometimes renovating your house isn't just about your house. It's about the person who lives inside of it. I dive deep into what changes I saw while renovating and how you can find your own change.Support the showFind Us: https://www.jackiebrubaker.com/ https://loveyouevenmore.com/ https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinebrubaker/

Today's phone-in: Deneika Coakley and Dan Monk take your calls on home renovations. But first, members of the Youth Climate Assembly and Senator Mary Coyle on Canada's first citizens' assembly on climate solutions.

#587 What does it take to grow a multi-million dollar service business from the ground up? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Serge Rochon, founder of Complete Windows & Doors, to unpack how he built a thriving home renovation company over the past 13 years — starting solo and scaling to a 25+ person team. Serge shares the lessons learned from cold-calling and canvassing his way to early customers, how mentorship shaped his start, why he avoided new construction jobs, and the importance of building systems and hiring ahead of the curve. Whether you're just getting started or preparing to scale, this conversation is full of practical wisdom for creating a profitable, sellable service business that doesn't depend solely on you! What we discuss with Serge: + Started business after 12+ years in industry + Chose renovations over new builds + Landed early clients through cold outreach + Leveraged past customer base to launch + Focused on expert installation and service + Scaled from solo to 25+ person team + Built systems to reduce owner dependency + Offers “good, better, best” product tiers + Uses CRM and quoting tools to stay lean + Emphasizes hiring ahead of demand Thank you, Serge!

You'll also hear some real-life horror stories from homeowners who learned the hard way—and how you can avoid making the same mistakes.

What would happen to your business if you had to step away for two months? No Instagram. No ads. No blogging. Would it survive—or would it crumble?This summer, I put my business to the ultimate test. With my home renovation spiraling into chaos and my mental bandwidth at zero, I had no choice but to step back. And yet, my business didn't just survive—it thrived. In July alone, I booked $49,300 in weddings without showing up online.In this episode, I'm sharing:A raw, behind-the-scenes story of one of the hardest seasons of my life.The 3 things I did to rebound, and get my "successful" groove back.The exact system that kept my business running—and how it can work for you, too.If you've ever wondered how to build a business that supports you, even when life feels impossible, this episode is for you.

Some renovators have discovered one-in-a-million items they never knew were there. And some of them are truly shocking! I've got bees, bones, live bombs, and more – so, get your overalls ready as we check out some incredible treasures people discovered during renovations. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Looking back, my kitchen has gone through many lives. It started with painted cabinets and bamboo floors on a tight budget, then evolved through a moody green phase during COVID before finally landing on a navy-and-white look inspired by the sea. Along the way, we tiled to the ceiling, swapped in a gorgeous Bertazzoni stove, shiplapped the ceiling, and added furniture pieces to make it feel warm and lived-in rather than purely functional. Each change taught me something about color, materials, and the value of taking time to figure out what really works.With my renovation journey behind me, I sit down with Barbara Ballinger and Margaret Crane, authors of Kitchen Conversations, to talk about what really goes into creating a kitchen that works for you. We cover the basics like layout, storage, and lighting, and why planning for how you actually use the space matters more than following trends. Barbara and Margaret share practical tips on where to save, when to splurge, and how to avoid common renovation mistakes. We also discuss making design choices that last, adding personality to your kitchen, and how to approach the entire process without rushing it. Want to finally define your style?
