Renovating your home can get pretty expensive. According to research by Houzz, Americans spent $18k on average on home renovation projects in 2021. Money doesn't grow on trees, so, people often look for the cheapest possible "professionals" who can do the job for less.

Some folks, however, venture into cheapskate territory, and the group "I found someone who will do it cheaper" shares these kinds of fails and shames them. These might just be the perfect examples that paying a professional to do a good job will probably pay off tenfold in the future.
