If you’ve previously done a remodel, whether minor or significant renovations, you know how easy you can go nuts during the whole process.
Between trying to stick to your budget, staying on time, and things going south, the whole process can be a nightmare.
However, it’s absolutely possible to get it done the right way without feeling like it’s sucking the life out of you. All it takes is having a concrete plan.
Here’s the plan:
- Create a vision board
The fact is you can’t move forward with your remodel without figuring out the results.
So, if you already have an idea of what you want, get down to business, create a list of the necessary features and items you want.
For example, if you are to undertake a kitchen remodeling project and your kitchen is small, check out Pinterest ideas and magazine inspirations to help you figure out the best way to go about it.
- Set your budget
Create a realistic budget; if you want a specific kind of remodel, but you feel it’s way above your budget, consider making changes.
- Build your team
The people you’re going to work with will determine the flow of the whole remodeling.
If you’re planning to hire professionals, now is the time to get your quotes from different remodeling contractors. It would even be better to hold interviews with them to find the best that suits your requirements.
If you’re going DIY, you still need to build your team, from who’s in charge and who is doing what.
- Create a workable schedule
If you’re working with professionals, you may have your work cut out for you. Of course, they have full knowledge of what goes in a remodel.
If you’re going DIY, you may still need to consult with professionals, especially if it’s your first time.
- Make room for the unexpected
To be honest, the most stress comes from dealing with things you didn’t anticipate. The best thing you can do is to assume setbacks happen and plan for them as well.
