Condo living is very appealing for many reasons. They are not as difficult to maintain as traditional homes and do not come with the same restrictions as most co-ops. In New York City where square footage is at a premium, remodeling is almost necessary if you want your condo to fit your lifestyle. Even a minor kitchen remodeling project can do wonders for your space. In today’s post, Knockout Renovation shares three tips to keep in mind once you decide to revamp your NYC condo.
Most condos will have an alteration agreement, which is a contract between you and the owner of the building or its manager or board members. It details how to go about any renovation work or if it is even allowed. If you haven’t already, be sure to give it a thorough review before hiring a contractor to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible.
Even in the city that never sleeps, nobody wants any loud, unpleasant noises that are usually associated with a remodeling job. To avoid annoying your neighbors, consider writing a letter that includes information about the duration of the project, potential disturbances such as dust or fumes, and work schedule. Alternatively, you can get a little more personal and knock on a few doors or even send out e-mails.
In New York City where dwellings are built closely to each other, try to get as much natural light into your space as possible. Natural light will provide you with much-needed Vitamin D and also make your space feel larger and more inviting.
