- Small projects such as extensions can require a lot of planning and budget, don’t underestimate
- Just because the change may not seem like such a big challenge doesn’t mean the work necessary to deliver it will be small. Ensure that you plan ahead on the particular renovation and itemise everything you will need to deliver it.
- Plan, Plan and Plan Again
- It can’t be overstated how important this is, take your time, sit down and go through everything – get quotes, find what you’re looking for, outline your budget, in what timeframe you expect and speak to an expert to update and amend where required.
- Check the regulations
- Before you can dive right in, be sure to check out the relative zoning and construction regulations that may impact upon your remodel or renovation.
- Temper the change
- It’s typically tempting for a remodel to develop into a comprehensive total change in your home, instead, you most outline clearly and concisely outline exactly what it is you will aim to do, to often we have seen budgets and timeframes go bust due to expansions. Be sure to stay focused.
- Expectation management
- Rome wasn’t built in a day and your remodel won’t finish in a day, it’s important to be realistic with your timeframes and the budget you will need to spend, aim to give an allowance to your timeframe and allow it to be as flexible as possible, things can emerge which require adaptations.
