How to Plan Ahead for a Whole-House Remodel

The success of a remodel is all about planning, planning and more planning. Working with reputable home remodeling contractors is a great way to make sure you have your bases covered, but there are also some things you need to take care of before a remodel begins.

Financing

It’s important to get your finances in order well before you schedule a consultation with a remodeler to ensure you have the budget necessary to bring your dream home to life. Fortunately as well, there are numerous financing options available to you, allowing you to choose whatever payment scheme will work for you best. Depending on your preferences, you can choose to apply for financing on your own, or you can check out financing options offered by remodeling contractors. Take note as well that your budget needs to include miscellaneous expenses and not just costs related directly to the remodel.

Moving/Storing Furniture and Other Belongings

Before any work begins, you need to clear your home of all your belongings, including your furniture. Aside from simply getting them out of the way to make it easier for your remodeler to move around in, moving and storing furniture and other belongings outside of your home is also the best way to ensure that they are not damaged during the remodel.

Accommodations

Once your whole-house remodel starts, you won’t actually have a house to stay in, so make sure you have alternative accommodations set up until your project is finished. Depending on your preferences again, you can choose to rent a smaller space in the meantime or stay with family or friends.
