Every situation, person, purpose, county, municipality, home, and…well, you get the point. Is different. While some people are fine with just a cosmetic upgrade, some homeowners want a home to stand the ages. We’ve seen it all and have made a simple list here of the reasons we commonly come across when interacting with homeowners looking for home remodeling.

Increase/Maintain Home Value
A lot of homeowners plan on using their property for retirement, as an investment mechanism, or to be a stronghold for their family moving into the future. No matter what your reason, remodeling your kitchen or bathrooms can provide a decent return when it comes time to sell or refinance your home. A complete home remodel can ensure that your home is not only up to date stylistically but also when it comes to safety and permitting standards.

Add or Enhance Functionality
Adding an island or peninsula to your kitchen, extending a bathroom, or even building an entire new room can save you tons of money on moving to a place just because it suits your increasing demands. As we and our families grow, our lifestyles change. Rather than spending the time and hassle looking for and moving to a new place, you can save yourself a ton of trouble and hassle by simply adding in the space or functionality you need.

Change of Lifestyle
A huge driver for remodeling is just life happening, as it does to us all. Having children, changing to a work-from-home situation, taking on a new hobby, or having a loved one move in with you are some of the more common life changes that spur the need for a new dedicated space. A full remodel allows you to reconfigure, add to or otherwise modify your home to make it more convenient for your new lifestyle.

Customization
A house becomes a home when we make it our own. A complete home remodeling allows you to reflect your unique style. Once you can express your true creative freedom, home becomes a much more cozy and comfortable space.

While a complete home remodel can seem like a huge project, it’s much easier to digest when you break it into chunks. With decent prep and an amazing contractor by your side (ahem, hint, hint), your project should be smooth, rewarding, and make you feel confident throughout and afterwards. While we do our best to ensure your home remodeling project is an amazing experience, we do appreciate homeowners who help by;

Setting clear priorities: Know what’s important to you, do you want more style, more functionality, more space, etc… then use our experience to guide you to the most reasonable, positive solution.

Being flexible: People are people, we are all human, all we expect is to be treated as such. When things happen, we will keep you updated, stay in communication, and do our best to resolve it as fast as possible. Having someone unreasonable rush us or set unrealistic expectations for solving problems only delays us and your project.

Staying organized: Having a ‘guide book’ of inspiration you’ve found online, photos, clips of shows, time frames, material choices, and so on is a great way to stay on track and help narrow down the pricing when it comes to your estimate.

Designating a “Safe Zone”: No matter how smooth a home remodeling project goes, it’s always stressful watching your house be worked on. Having a space to relax throughout the project is a great way to reset instead of trying to ‘help’ because you’re worried about what’s happening.

Communicating regularly: Throughout our relationship as your contractor, we are very communicative and appreciate the same. Whether you’re running late for a meeting, unavailable, or just have questions we appreciate you reaching out to let us know. No matter how small you might think the issue is.
