Nearly 80% of homeowners aren’t creating a budget for home improvement projects, meaning contractors that educate them can improve the odds of securing the job.
The findings stem from Modernize’s homeowner sentiment survey, an ongoing, long-term study of how homeowners research and evaluate home improvement projects like window replacement, roofing, solar power, and heating and air conditioning. The study covers how homeowners budget for their improvement projects, how they find and select their preferred contractor, and how they plan to pay for their projects.
