Summer is a time when most people are thinking about improving their beach bods. But summer is also a good time to think about improving your home.
This video offers expert tips for people thinking about remodeling.
First, kitchen and bathroom work offers the best return on investment, so that’s a good place to start.
Next, do your homework on contractors. Ask friends and family for recommendations, and scope out companies online.
Also, stay skeptical of any really low offers. As we’ve covered before, a really low offer usually means a contractor is looking to cut corners, either in quality or materials. If a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Elsewhere, make sure to read all contracts. Don’t be afraid to ask questions or ask for something to be explained for you. It’s common sense, but don’t sign a paper you don’t fully understand.
The tips don’t end there, though. In this article, a couple talks about their remodeling process and how enlisting help from an informational seminar put them at ease and made for a worthwhile experience.
One big takeaway from the article: find a remodeler that matches up with your ideas and then purchase only what makes you feel comfortable.
Have a good week!
