Let’s Talk
A major remodeling project can be one of the most exciting and difficult experiences a homeowner can undertake. It is both a significant financial investment and requires time planning, developing and executing the construction.
First you need a plan and a goal. Figure your desired function and use of the space. The best way to prevent problems down the road is to make sure your contractor knows your expectations – what you envision for the space. It might pay for you to see a computer-generated picture or design to help you understand what the final product will be. It is much cheaper to make changes to a digital model than during the actual construction! Detailed planning minimizes changes and cost overruns down the road.
Next, a budget is vital to your satisfying result. It is to your advantage to plan a minimum/maximum budget to target the best quality within that budget. This means you are part of the team in planning the scope of the project and materials used.
