Stop Surprise Costs and Schedule Drift. Manage your Renovation with a Simple Plan.

Construction Confidence Mini is a short, practical course built for Adult Family Home providers working with small residential contractors. You’ll learn a clear system to control scope, schedule, and budget—plus get the full Tool Pack (T1–T26).

6 months of video + download access • 7-day refund policy • Educational content (not legal advice)

What you get on the other side

  • You know how to hire the right contractor (and verify them in WA).

  • You stop surprise invoices before they happen.

  • You keep the schedule from slowly slipping week after week.

  • You prevent expensive rework from wrong products or failed inspections.

  • You finish cleanly with a clear Completion Checklist (Punch List) and closeout.

  • You handle post-project fixes calmly with a Correction Period process.

This course is for AFH providers who:

  • are caregivers first and don’t have time to manage construction full-time

  • want a renovation to be calm and predictable

  • work with small residential contractors (not commercial GCs)

  • want professional tools and scripts, not vague advice

Not a fit if:

  • you want us to run your construction administration (this product replaces that for small renos)

  • you need code/legal decisions made for you (we teach process + questions to ask)

What’s included

  • 6 video lessons (60–120 minutes total)

​​

  • Tool Pack T1–T26 (templates, checklists, scripts)

​​

  • Tool Map + Intro video (so you always know what to do next)

​​

  • 6-month access to videos + downloads after purchase
