Before You Hiring Anyone For Your Professional Remodel, Get Clear on What You’re Walking Into.

Before You Hiring Anyone For Your Professional Remodel, Get Clear on What You’re Walking Into.

That uneasy feeling you have isn’t random.

Most homeowners feel uncertain at the start of a remodel — not because they’re careless, but because there’s more happening beneath the surface than they can see yet.

The remodeling industry wasn’t built to help homeowners get oriented early. So pressure builds. Decisions get rushed. Risk increases quietly.

The Remodel Risk Assessment helps you see where you stand — clearly — before money is spent or commitments are made.

Protect your home.

Protect your money.

Protect your family.

Your Remodel Risk Score™ Shows Where You’re Exposed — and Where You’re Not

Most homeowners begin a remodel without realizing which parts of the process are solid — and which ones are quietly fragile.
This professional-grade assessment gives you a clear snapshot of your readiness across three critical areas that shape every remodel outcome:

Planning Risk

Clarity creates stability.
This measures whether your plans are truly actionable — not just ideas or inspiration, but the level of definition professionals rely on to deliver consistent results.

At the end, you’ll receive a clear Overall Remodel Risk Score™ highlighting:
what’s working
what’s vulnerable
and what needs attention next
So you can move forward grounded — not guessing.

This Isn’t a Quiz.
It’s an Orientation Tool.

The Remodel Risk Assessment was built by a licensed architect with over 20 years inside residential design and construction.

It reflects the realities homeowners usually don’t discover until they’re already committed — when changes are slower, costlier, and more stressful.

It takes about 15–20 minutes and gives you a clear picture of how prepared you truly are before your remodel gains momentum.

You’re Not Behind — You’re Just Not Being Shown the Whole Picture.

Architects, designers, and contractors all operate inside professional systems.
Homeowners are expected to step into those systems without a map — while managing emotional, financial, and family stakes at the same time.
No wonder the process feels confusing.
This assessment doesn’t push you toward decisions.
It gives you visibility — so you can decide what deserves attention and what doesn’t.

This Assessment Is for You If:

You’re planning a professional remodel and feel uncertain how to move forward
You want to avoid costly missteps without becoming an expert
You want clarity before conversations with architects or contractors
You care about protecting your time, money, and energy
You want your remodel to support your family — not strain it
You want a remodel that brings your family closer — not one that tears your sanity apart.

I’ve Seen Where Remodels Break Down — and It’s Preventable.

I’m Jason Conawayarchitect, homeowner, and homeowner advocate.

For more than 20 years, I’ve worked alongside families during the design process — close enough to see where confusion, misalignment, and unnecessary stress take hold.

Not because homeowners did anything wrong —
but because the early stages weren’t designed to support them.

This assessment exists to give you the clarity the industry never prioritized — so you can step forward with confidence instead of hope.
