Draw all the furniture to scale once.
I need to provide a more detailed version in the next few days. However, with the current dimensions plus some buffer, we were able to visualize our furniture well in the house. Please do that, then you’ll immediately see where the tight spots are.
And if possible, leave out the description fields. Just the square meter (sq m) measurements are completely sufficient.

Whether a homeowner has time once or five times a week is completely irrelevant as long as they lack expertise, as is the case with me. That’s true. That’s why having an expert is often a good and reassuring solution. It has helped me that I had a few years of professional contact with craftsmen from all construction trades and gained insight into their training, processes, and commercial management. During that time, I developed great respect for these companies and learned what really matters when choosing one: passion for their craft, good leadership of employees, and a strong local presence with a good reputation. This is far more valuable than the lowest price offer – and then you can trust them without needing a construction expert who might partially offset the cost advantages.
Who carries out the construction work is more important than the price. In the end, the house will be much better, your nerves will be spared, hidden costs won’t arise, and when all is said and done, you might not even have paid more.
