If you have found yourself ever thinking that your project is too expensive, or that you can live with an outdated feature for a few more years, you know what it is like to push off a project that eventually becomes inevitable. Unfortunately, pushing off these improvement projects can lead to bigger issues ranging from home damage to decreased property value.
