Ah! At last, I saw a window of your house Lol.
I had my own renovations company years ago and was forced to close down because the building trade slumped at the time. The most important thing about renovations are the preparations, as some people start to paint old walls without washing them first.
Others would buy the cheapest materials and quote you for top grade ones.
Best for you would be yo find a qualified trade expert to keep an eye on things every now and then. Also don't rush and start with the most important things first, as you are right in saying that eventually all things will work out.
But I think that you know all of this.
Blessings to you guys and take care!

black and whites I need to take more.
We have at least currently, a project manager who is keeping an eye on various aspects and assembling people. It is pretty expensive though. When it comes to this kind of house, it has to be done right and with the right materials otherwise it will have issues down the track, especially if it doesn't breathe.
I think the latest economic crisis is going to put many small businesses under, my own included perhaps. It will be a bitter pill if it happens, as I felt I was just finding my feet. For these guys, I am hoping that they won't mind doing the work a little below normal price to keep themselves busy in the downturn.
It'll all work out - it always has.
Yep! You are right about the bad news. South Africa just received its first Junk Status from Moody's in history. Our ZAR Rand value has rocketed to R19+ to the Dollar and now also with the lockdown many little businesses are folding.
At the charity we are well trained in sacrifices as we have been doing it for so long and we will simply continue through this dark storm.
I feel for you though with the problems you are facing.
Do you have a plan B?
I will only see your answer tomorrow, please don't think me rude, but very late here now!
Blessings!

My sister in law runs a charity out of Kenya and they are really struggling at the moment as distribution is needed and it can't happen under these conditions. They had just invested a lot into machinery to increase output to meet demand, and now they are pretty screwed if this doesn't end soon. It is a shame if they must wind it up, as they help many.
Wait longer :)
Oh yeah, we are all locked in and it creates sleepless nights worrying about the plight of the poor, as they have to suffer terribly at these times. Last that I heard, many little charities are in the process of closing down over here.
But then again, even in the "good" times we have seen many of them come with their names up in lights, only to fizzle out and go when the hard work starts.
Sorry for your sister in laws plight.
Waiting longer is always a good answer my friend.
