Save Thousands on Renovations Using Artificial Intelligence, DIY Skills & Smart Planning Kindle Edition
by Jason Hammond (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
What if your next home renovation cost 50–60% less — and you actually enjoyed doing it?
The average kitchen remodel costs $35,000. The average bathroom: $12,000. And most of that money goes to labor — work that homeowners can learn to do themselves with the right guidance.
Until now, "the right guidance" meant expensive classes, unreliable YouTube videos, or begging a handy friend for help.
That just changed.
The AI-Powered Homeowner is the first book that combines artificial intelligence tools with hands-on DIY renovation skills to help you plan smarter, spend less, and build with confidence. Learn how to use ChatGPT, Claude, and specialized AI apps to estimate costs, generate material lists, troubleshoot problems in real time, and execute projects like a seasoned pro — even if you've never picked up a tile saw.
Inside this book, you'll discover:
- The C.O.N.T.E.X.T. prompting framework — a step-by-step method for getting expert-level renovation advice from any AI tool
- Complete project walkthroughs for kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, walls, plumbing basics, electrical fundamentals, and exterior improvements
- AI-powered cost estimation that reveals the true DIY savings on every project — before you spend a dime
- The Hire-or-DIY Decision Framework so you know exactly when to grab your tools and when to call a contractor
- Ready-to-use prompt templates you can copy and paste into ChatGPT or Claude for instant project planning, material lists, and troubleshooting
- Interactive worksheets and calculators for budgeting, room measurements, and tracking your renovation savings
- A Contractor Vetting Checklist and contract review guide to protect yourself when you do hire out
- A Seasonal Maintenance Calendar to keep your home in top condition year-round
This isn't a book about replacing contractors entirely. It's about understanding what you can do, what you should hire out, and how AI gives you the knowledge gap that used to cost thousands to bridge.
Whether you're facing your first fixer-upper or planning your tenth renovation, this guide meets you where you are — with practical advice, real cost breakdowns, and an AI co-pilot that never clocks out.
