Prioritizing: Think about items that are MUST-HAVES vs. items that you WOULD LIKE ? Put these items in a list, starting with the most important. Establish a Budget: It is best to figure out a budget for your whole project and let your contractor know about it. Unrealistic expectations can result if you don't convey how much you want to spend and what you hope to get for that amount of money. If you have to skimp on items now to get what you want later, you might go with a less expensive countertop, flooring or electrical fixtures. These areas are easier to replace later than, say a more open-space plan you would have rather had. What is the scope of your job. We can help in this area.. The advice and expertise of a knowledgeable contractor will help you establish the steps that need to be taken to attain the plan you are looking for. Remember cabinetry and other special order items can have lead-times of 4-8 weeks for delivery to your project site. If you have a start date in mind of next Monday, however a permit was just obtained and nothing has been ordered, you will likely be disappointed. If you are thinking of doing some of the work yourself, make it at the beginning or at the end of the job. Then our part of the job isn't delayed and you still save money on the "do it yourself" portion. If you decide to do a part of the job in the middle, the contractor may have to start another job, delaying your project and creating headaches for you.
Finalize a Plan: Map out where you want everything to go. This is so important. It gives us a chance to know where you're thinking. You might think that there is space for what you have envisioned, only to find out that you haven't accounted for the space needed for something else.
Preparation: Here are some ways you can prepare for construction. 1. Pack your personal items in clearly labeled boxes that can be moved to another part of the home during the project. 2. Remove any items from walls in neighboring rooms. The vibrations from construction can cause pictures to fall. Talking with us about any comments or concerns you have should help ease the construction process. Remember, it's a temporary inconvenience, but a permanent improvement. Have fun with it! Keep a sense of humor. Some Items to Consider for Your Project:
