Now that you’ve made the decision to have your apartment renovated, it’s time to start thinking about how to prepare for it. There are a lot of things to think about and do during any renovation, no matter its size, but with these 4 tips, you should be able to stay calm and breeze through! 1.Be confident and swift in your decisions While decisions should be made carefully, they should also be made efficiently, and confidently, and with the help of your chosen general contractor, you should be able to do this easily.
Oftentimes, decisions will need to be made during a renovation due to circumstances that are out of everybody’s control, but it’s usually the smaller decisions such as faucet selection and paint colors etc. that can delay proceedings significantly. Work hard to make such decisions promptly to avoid further delays; your general contractor will thank you for it! 2. Set a considered budget Whatever the size of your project, having a clear budget is essential for its success. If you’re renovating your entire apartment, think about which rooms will give the biggest return on your investment should you decide to sell your home in the future, and by spending less of your budget on lighting, vanities and closet systems, you should see a bigger return on your investment.
While having an exact idea of costs won’t come until the remodeling company have sat down with you and talked through the plan in detail, you can still get a rough idea of costs by looking at all the different styles, materials and looks you want to implement in your home. 3. Have a contingency fund Even the best laid plans will come up against some resistance, but having a contingency fund can help to overcome such issues when they arise. Renovators advise setting 5% of your original budget aside to cover any unexpected costs, otherwise you could face lengthy delays and unfinished work.
4. Pay visits to showrooms for kitchens and bathrooms Going to look at bathrooms and kitchens in a showroom can be really helpful if you’re planning to renovate either (or both) of these rooms, as doing so enables you to see the materials and ask questions about them. You’ll also be able to get a much more accurate idea of cost, which will allow to set a budget that is realistic. With the help of these 4 tips, and by working with an experienced renovation company, you can not only prepare better for your apartment renovation, but can have it completed on time and to a high standard.
