Renovations and understanding total costs of remodeling. Blog5
April 1st, 2012 | Published in Blog
Many times homeowners would like to remodel then run into unplanned expenses and time to complete beyond what they expected.
Sometimes people try to do it themselves, then find right in the middle of the project it costs a lot more than they originally thought.
This is not uncommon. It’s so easy to see something like flooring for instance, then you get a rough idea of what it costs…and think that’s about what it will cost.
What about the underlayment?..
What about glue?..
Woops, I have to level my floor with something first!
And, wow!.. I have to rent a piece of equipment to get this done….Geeez when does this stop?
Can we save the baseboards or will they have to be replaced?
How do I cut the door jambs off?
What is a door jamb anyway?
It happens all the time.
Right in the middle of the project the homeowner comes to the realization that this remodel is going to cost at least twice as much and take twice as long to do.
The secret to a successful remodel in your home is proper planning and knowing every part of the entire project..every board, bolt, screw, nail and equipment needed BEFORE you start the project.
That’s what I do and that’s why it’s important to work closely with your renovation expert to achieve the exact results you’re after.
I map out the entire job step-by-step before starting the remodel, including a complete list of all needed equipment and materials to complete the renovation exactly like the customer dreamed it would be.
That’s why we’re always able to complete the job and achieve results beyond what the typical homeowner can do.
First..we’ve got the tools that you just haven’t thought about until you get into the job and find out you need to rent it…so, you head down to the rental company to rent it..lost time..more money involved.
Second..Materials. We get the materials together to bring on-site for the days work. Wood, nails..glue, caulking..whatever the job requires…we’ve already thought of it, so there’s no down-time before we can get to work and get it right the first time…every time!
In the end..we can probably do it much cheaper than you thought…and it will be done correctly with the proper materials, equipment and techniques.
AND more importantly…Your new remodel gets finished.
It’s a fact that many homeowners start a project ..and are never able to finish it because they get in way over their head right in the middle of the project then become overwhelmed.
