If you're going to complain about the lack of sources, you might take the time to do accurate research before calling BS. The source took took me about 3 minutes to find. From the Washington Post:
The Executive Residence, which employs housekeepers, curators, calligraphers and carpenters, has not previously managed major construction efforts, experts said. In recent years, Congress has appropriated $2.5 million annually to its maintenance account, known as "White House Repair and Restoration."
Since Trump took office, the administration has directed $875 million to that account, public budget records show.
