Whole-house remodels require a lot of time and effort, but it’ll all be worth it in the end. Fortunately, there are several ways to minimize stress from a remodeling project.
The professional remodelers at Knockout Renovation share some planning tips in this guide.
Without clear project goals, you’re likely to end up being disappointed with the end result of the project, no matter how it turns out. That’s why it’s important to visualize your new interior and set concrete goals for achieving that vision.
Having trouble visualizing your new interior? A professional remodeler can show you pictures of their portfolio or make a few recommendations during the initial consultation to help you visualize your new interior.
While it’s possible to stay in your home while renovations are ongoing, it’d be more practical to find temporary accommodation. That’s because you’re unlikely to get any work done or get some rest in the middle of all the construction noise, which is also stressful for pets. If you want to keep a close eye on the progress of your renovations, you can ask for updates from the general contractor that’s overseeing your project or visit the construction site from time to time.
Don’t forget to vet a prospective contractor before hiring them. Remodeling projects are essentially collaborations between you and your contractor, which is why it’s important to choose a remodeler you can easily get along with. Remember: Constant communication is key to a remodeling project’s success.
