Normally, there is a great amount of time, money and inconvenience involved in a rip out and rebuild project. Basic groundwork means obtaining three estimates for the desired work and qualifying references provided by contractors you are considering. Below are some guidelines to help make your renovation a success, not a horror story. Define your objectives: List the good and bad points about the living space you want to renovate. You should create an all-inclusive "wish list" which you can then use as a point of departure. Prioritize: Organize the project plans by prioritizing your "wish list" but be ready to compromise and accommodate for different tastes and wishes of other members of the household. Assess your available resources and develop a budget for the project. Transforming a wish list into a functional and visual plan may need the help of a professional architect, contractor or design firm in order to reach a seamless integration of the design with the actual work needed. This will help avoid designs that could turn out to be "budget busters." Share your budget with the design company you hire. In turn, they should be able to tailor a solution that will allow most of your "wish list" items to fit within your project budget. Finding the right design firm to develop and accomplish this phase is a critical factor for a successful renovation. Hire a contractor: If you are remodeling a kitchen or bath, then you need a contractor that can demonstrate experience and expertise in kitchen and bath renovation work. It is time well spent when you review the recent projects and interview previous clients of the contractors on your hire list; keep in mind that even a bad contractor has happy customers. All of these concerns may end up being meaningless if you do not get along with your contractor. It is necessary that you are comfortable with the company you hire and you should feel a genuine rapport with the people who work for them as well. It is prudent to work with a contractor that can guarantee a price for your project, and provide a completion date in writing. In the end, it is the contractor's steadfast dedication to a satisfactory completion and your capacity to 'navigate rough waters' that will define your renovations experience. Be prepared for the Challenges associated with the project. Stay Involved!
