We’re still on Cloud 9 after receiving the Angie’s List Super Service Award for 2014, so we’ll take the opportunity to listen to advice from Angie herself.
When it comes to remodeling, communication is key.
Angie recommends setting regular meeting times with your contractor to go over details such as what time in the morning work will start, where workers will use the bathroom, and where materials will be stored.
A good contractor will always make time to clearly outline a plan.
Because things don’t always go as planned, Angie recommends setting aside 10% of your budget as a contingency fund and adding a week to your projected finish date.
If you finish on or ahead of schedule, consider the funds as a personal bonus!
Angie’s tips will come in handy if you are looking to incorporate the early trends of 2015 into your remodel.
The weather is glorious this time of year and with the dog days of summer ahead, many homeowners have begun work on improving their outdoor living spaces.
Whether it’s adding a bar, fire pit, fireplace, or TV and audio system, Valley residents are hoping to upgrade their quality of life and entertain in style.
Elsewhere, because the Valley is also home to lots of baby boomers, lots of people are looking to age in place comfortably and incorporate universal design. For example, the article highlights wider hallways and bathroom grab bars that double as towel holders.
Big or small, MK Remodeling & Design is happy to help reach your remodeling goals.
Have a good week!
