Renovation and Project Advice
​
Launching your next home renovation project can be pretty intimidating.
​
-
It can be really difficult to visualize what’s optimal (or even possible) for your specific situation
-
You may be unsure when to spend your hard-earned budget dollars on architects, engineers, and contractors
-
In other words, navigating the steps of the process can be completely overwhelming
RER BarnWorks aims to be an impartial advisor (i.e., we are not a General Contracting company) that can help you devise a solid plan of attack and can then be someone that can gut-check work as time goes on during your project. We work with clients near Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, on an hourly rate basis and have found that even a couple brief chats can set you on a better renovation path.
