The beginnings of spring are a great time of year for everyone to take time off and tackle projects that have been set aside the whole year. Many businesses have sales on things you need which allow for great savings. Renovating during the spring is becoming the new norm for the busy professionals who want to be a part of the renovations.
Set a Schedule
Renovations can be as simple as a new coat of paint or it can be as detailed as gutting an entire room. No matter the complexity of the project it is important to lay out a schedule to make sure you can complete your project and still allow some time to enjoy the warmer weather. Discuss any important days when there will be visitors up front so that your contractors can work that into the overall schedule. If the contractors know in advance that one day will not be available for work then they can schedule their workers more efficiently.
Allow space for Storage
Renovations require space so it is important to provide space where your contractors can store materials and tools for the job. Arrange for space as close to the actual project as possible to reduce the amount of time workers spend carrying materials back and forth. Without adequate space the job will progress more slowly and time will be wasted if tools have to be constantly set up and taken down after each day’s work.
Be Flexible
No matter how much planning you do there will always be some glitches. Remember, this is part of the renovation process. Be flexible and work with your contractors to find the ideal solution.
Renovating during spring is a great option to upgrade your home. Remember to set a schedule, arrange space for storage and most of all be flexible during the renovation work and you’ll be saying hello to a new kitchen and bath before Memorial Day!
