FAQ’s of a REMODELING PROJECT

  • Living in a Construction Zone.  Access to the project can be difficult in itself, with simple things as parking, bathrooms, trash, and multiple people arriving every day – this is before any material or work has even begun.
  • Site preparation is critical to remodeling projects.  Most projects require

    closing off access from one part of the home to the other.  Material has to be brought in and removed by hand without the use of machinery.  Protecting existing landscaping, cabinets, flooring and only allowing for a single point of access to the home makes it more expensive.
  • New homes tend to flow with relative ease from start to finish.  Not even weather is that much of a deterrent, i.e.; rain during rough framing stages will not cause major delays because most critical finished products are not in at that time & will not be affected to moisture, compared to a finished home.
  • Even job site cleanliness will not delay a project until it is completely over run with materials and trash making it unable to maneuver.
  • The skill and time of making your remodeling project blend together seamless with the rest of the house.  Custom workmanship as matching paint, mill work, flooring and so on take a lot of time and skilled craftsmanship to achieve a streamlined look of beauty.
  • Scheduling of trades, vendors and contractors require a much greater attention to detail.  Most trades and vendors charge more for this type of work due to it volatile working conditions and only using specially trained employees to work inside your home.

Home Renovations can not only be more expensive, but also
more intensive & emotional for all who are involved.
