Planning Your Next Home Renovation

4/27/2021

8 Comments

 
Where do you start when you decide to renovate?
Do you look for a Designer; a Contractor; collect images of spaces that appeal to you?
None of the above.

​The first step for a successful home renovation is to identify what needs to change, why it needs to change, and their order of priority.

Why is this so important?
It clarifies the projects main goals, allowing a Contractor or Designer to suggest alternatives that can better accomplish those goals, adjust designs quickly when inevitable challenges arise, and prioritize your budget costs to ensure your home renovation accomplishes your goals.

B Gallant Homes calls this stage of your home renovation “DREAMING”. 
​Take your time and include all the members in your household. 
 

Good Planning Results in Successful and Cost-Effective Home Renovations.

IDENTIFY what you want to change in your home and create specific goals for the renovation project. 

THINK through what you want to change, and why, this serves as the foundation for your renovation plans.

PRIORITIZE which changes are necessary 
to ensure a successful project.

Consider the short and the long term.
Your home renovation should provide you with improved function, comfort, and convenience, while maintaining safety for everyone in the household - young and old. 
 When planning your home renovation, consider what you will need for both the short and the long term.

Thank you for explaining that a home builder should be able to adjust designs quickly when inevitable challenges occur. My friend wants to have a custom home. I should advise her to hire a custom home builder with vast experience in the field.

I appreciate your saying that home remodels should enhance function, comfort, and convenience while ensuring everyone's safety—young and old—in the home. My sister has stated her desire to remodel the home. I will remind her to hire a custom home renovation specialist to safeguard the family's safety.

I appreciate it when you explained that identifying the what, why, and when needs to change would help the contractor or designer to find alternatives if there better ways to achieve your goals. We plan to get a custom basement renovation project started this summer. Our goal is to turn that area into another room so that we can actually use it, and we hope that we can make it into an entertainment room where we can watch movies and play games.
