3 Home Remodeling for Your Next Renovation

Remodelling your home can be stressful, complicated and exciting all at the same time. There are many moving parts to a remodel and it can be difficult to keep track of what is going on every moment. To help you through this, here are a few key tips to avoid any issues that may arise:

 

  1. Set a Renovation Timeline. Start by selecting what day you would like your renovations to begin. With that decided, you can then work with your contractor to plan how much time the whole project will take. One key thing to remember here is to account for shipping dates! These can cause some delays in your plans, so it’s important to set your end date with a few days of buffer in case this happens.

 

  1. Remember the Big Picture. Remodelling your home isn’t only about choosing the most beautiful finishes and cutting costs to stay within your budget. It’s also about taking a step back and thinking about how well this remodel will sustain over time. Will these cabinets last many years to come? Thinking ahead can save you time and money in repairs and maintenance.

 

  1. Keep Resale in Mind. There are a million choices when it comes to picking a style for your remodel. However, when making these decisions it’s important to keep resale in mind. If you’re thinking you won’t be in your house five years from now, consider having a simple design that would appeal to most people. It can be difficult for some to resell a home that has been remodelled to fit a specific taste.
