    There is a building material shortage and it's hard to find builders everywhere. It's in every place I've seen anyone doing building work. People discovered that they wanted more space or a better house when all the lockdowns started. Supply chain problems also haven't helped. The 2009 housing bubble also had the effect in Europe that lots of people left the building trade and never went back creating a shortage of workers.

    Happy New Year Maya, Max and Saga 🎉. I wish you all a great renovation journey. Can't wait to see what the After looks like.
    I think because of the limited access to home building materials, mostly due to shipping supply chain delays, many contractors are not able to complete or start projects. This started since 2020 because its what happened to us when we had a house fire in Feb 2020, followed by shut down of borders and imports in Mar 2020 due to the pandemic, all while waiting for our contractor to finish the remodeling. It took a little over 5 months for our contractor to "complete" the house (regutted entire wood frames, walls and interior fixtures). Our contractor stated he could have completed our house in 3 months if there was no pandemic. We also had to wait several months to get our appliances and furniture delivered. The sofa was the longest wait (from Interior Define) and it took same amount of time to get our sofa delivered as it took to get our home completed.
    It was both an exciting and stressful journey during the home remodeling phase but boy we we're glad to be back home.
    I wish you and your family a peaceful journey during this new renovation transition. It's so nice to see families make their houses a HOME🏠. ☺️
