5 Ways Novalis Minimizes the Stress that Home Exterior Updates Put on Your Relationship

In 2021 Home Advisor conducted a study that found 7-in-10 partners cite past home improvement projects as a real relationship test.
80% of the couples in the study claimed their conflict stemmed most from budget related issues. Couples struggled to align on a budget and then also struggled to stick to it.
Making exterior updates to your home is stressful. That’s why its essential to work with professionals who can help make the process as smooth as possible.
The advice that is most often shared to navigate renovation stress on your relationship is to hire professionals you can trust.
Novalis takes it a step further:
We help you align on a vision of your home together.
The 2018 Houzz’s Remodeling & Relationships Survey found that 33% of respondents have found home exterior updates and the renovation process frustrating because they could not agree with their partner on products, materials or finishes. Novalis assessors meet you and your significant other in your home and review your scope in detail. Using their unique experience, unrivaled visualization tools and physical samples our assessors are able to foster effective and efficient collaboration.
We help couples strike a balance on style and budget.
The Houzz survey went further, finding 25% of couples did not like each others’ style and/or design taste. The Novalis team has unparalleled ability to customize any home exterior look because our expert crews of craftsmen have incomparable knowledge of the different roofing, siding and gutter options we offer. From slate roofs to vinyl siding and all the copper gutters in between we have a crew that specializes in each installation process allowing you to pair your partners preferred gutters and roofing style to your favorite trim and siding design.
We minimize the impact on your home life during installation.
70% of couples surveyed by Home advisor described the home renovation process as “frustrating” 1-in-5 even calling it “tense”. Our process across roofing, siding and gutters is to complete a section at a time in full so your home is never exposed to the elements. Another part of our process is that all Novalis crews clean their work area at the end of every day at your home with a magnet sweep to alleviate concerns of stray nails in your yard. On top of that it is our standard practice to use our dump truck to contain our operation and we drive it off your property at the end of each day so you never have to bicker about parking spaces.
Our work is backed by an extended warranty.
Every member of our team takes great pride in the work we do. It shows in the attention to detail seen in every home improvement project. We proudly provide lasting peace of mind to couples. You can take confidence in your shared decision to go with Novalis.
We offer maintenance programs across all of our services.
The most concerning statistic to come out of Houzz’s survey was that 7% of couples considered separation or divorce during their project. We as an organization do not believe investing in your home should come at the expense of your relationship so let us take care of your gutters and check on your roof and/or siding regularly. If we take preventative measures for you or perform a minor repair that is a great value compared to what an extensive replacement could cost you financially or emotionally.
