Frequently Asked Remodeling Questions

Unless there is exceptional damage or deterioration to the structural elements of the home, including the foundation, it is typically more cost-effective to remodel than it is to build a new house.

A house renovation typically follows this order:

  1. Structural and Safety Concerns: Foundation repairs, roof repairs or replacement, and damaged siding and/or window repairs or replacements to prevent water penetration.
  2. Demolition: Tearing down and disposal of structure and materials.
  3. Rebuilding: Addition of new walls, beams, doorways, and window frames.
  4. Electrical, Plumbing, and HVAC: Installation of utilities and HVAC equipment while the walls are open.
  5. Insulation and Drywall: Insulation installation in walls, attics, ceilings, and walls finished with drywall.
  6. Windows: Installation of energy-efficient window replacements.
  7. Finish Work: Baseboard, door and window trim, crown molding, built-in shelving, and more.
  8. Paint and Wallpaper: Finishing off interior wall surfaces and trim with paint or wallpaper.
  9. Flooring: Installation of hard and soft flooring.
  10. Cabinetry and Appliances: Installation of cabinetry, countertops, backsplashes, and appliances.
  11. Exterior Finishes and Gutters: Finishing touches on the exterior of the home.
  1. Consultation: The initial consultation takes place in your home in order to view the space and determine your goals for the remodel.
  2. Budgeting: A conceptual budget is established for the project.
  3. Design: Preliminary designs are created and presented.
  4. Plans: The budget is reviewed and adjusted, and the final drawings are completed.
  5. Design: The homeowners choose their finishes, products, and materials.
  6. Contract: A fixed-price contract is prepared.
  7. Permits: All necessary permits and approvals are obtained.
  8. Construction: Construction begins.

On average, a whole-home renovation can take anywhere from four to eight months or more. This timeline is dependent on the size and scope of the project and may be better established once the final plans are in place.

Choose a contractor that has established itself as an industry leader with the experience, knowledge, and credentials needed for the successful completion of your remodel. Ask for referrals and view past remodeling projects to determine the quality of the work and attention to detail.
