5 Ways to Jump Start Your Home Remodel
After spending more time at home over the last several years, you may be ready to change the look and feel of your house. Perhaps you are ready to upgrade your kitchen or add more space. Whatever the reason, the thought crosses your mind: Maybe it’s time to start a home remodel. If you are having trouble figuring out how to approach your remodel, consider the following five simple steps to jumpstart the process.
Step 1: Gather Ideas
When planning a home remodel, start by developing your ideas and creating a prioritized list of your needs and wants. Look for design inspiration in magazines and websites, and collect pictures of projects you like to help envision and describe your project clearly on paper.
Step 2: Think About How You Utilize Your Space
Consider traffic patterns, furniture size and placement, colors, lighting, and how you plan to use the remodeled space. If your decision to remodel involves creating better access for someone with limited mobility, you may want to consider contacting a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist.
Step 3: Consider Home Energy Efficiency
You may want to improve home efficiency and hire a professional remodeler for green home remodeling. These projects include replacing windows and doors, upgrading heating and cooling systems, adding insulation, and other updates to make the home more energy-efficient, easier to maintain, and more comfortable.
Step 4: Think About Your Budget
“Calculate the funds required for home remodeling, furniture, landscaping, or any other expenses. You can ask one of our members for an estimate to determine your home improvement costs. Additionally, you can collaborate with one of our financial institution members if you need a loan to support your plans.”
Step 5: Find a Qualified Professional
When undertaking a remodeling project, whether big or small, it’s crucial to thoroughly consider your options and consult with multiple remodelers before beginning. Hiring a professional remodeler is the most reliable way to guarantee the success of your project, as these experts are committed to upholding the highest integrity and standards in the industry.
