Home Renovations A Common Cause Of Divorce!

Recent polls show that many couples choose to get divorced after a home renovation.

Home improvement and design information website, Houzz.com, recently sent a survey out to couples asking about their experiences with home renovations.  More than 50% of those surveyed said that the renovation process caused a significant amount of stress in their marriages and 12% of those couples said that the stress of renovation caused them to consider or pursue divorce or separation.

Experts recommend that any couples that are thinking about renovations to their home should consider setting aside rooms for each of them to decorate individually.  This could take some of the stress out of the renovation process so that each person can have input into their home and decorate in the way they feel comfortable.

Of course, no matter what some couples do to prevent discord, their efforts are unsuccessful and splits occur. It is also important to remember that it is possible to live happily alone.
