On this episode of the Custom Built Podcast, we’re diving into the unsexy side of homeownership—the hidden systems and fixtures that keep your house running smoothly but rarely make it onto Pinterest boards. From roofs and HVAC systems to plumbing, electrical, and even proper drainage, these are the investments that protect your home’s longevity and your family’s health. While everyone loves the excitement of a kitchen remodel, ignoring what’s behind the walls can lead to costly disasters down the line.

I’ll share real-life stories from restoration projects, practical tips on what to maintain (and when), and how to shift your mindset from “pretty upgrades” to protecting what matters most. By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly which areas to monitor, how to plan your budget with contingencies, and why prioritizing safety and efficiency is the most responsible form of design. Think of it as learning to celebrate the unpretty things—because they’re the ones keeping you safe, secure, and comfortable at home.
