How much should you spend on remodeling your home?

add

There's a lot to consider when remodeling your home, but the most important thing is to get the work done right. This means using high quality materials and making sure that everything is installed properly. The amount you should spend on remodeling your home depends on the size of your home and the amount of time you want to spend on the project.

One way to figure out how much you should be spending is by looking at the square footage of your home, as well as its age and condition so you can think of a budget in mind on how much to spend.

If you're not sure where to start or what's possible in your budget, Builderwell will help guide you through the process!

What is the difference between remodeling and renovating?

add

Remodeling and renovating are two terms that can be used interchangeably to refer to the process of altering or updating the interiors of a building, but they have different meanings.

Remodeling involves primarily interior changes and updates; this can include painting walls, adding new fixtures, or redecorating existing furniture. Renovation, on the other hand, typically refers to exterior alterations such as replacing windows or siding.

How Long Does a Remodel Take?

Are you considering undertaking a remodeling project for your home? If so, you may be wondering how long the process takes from start to finish. While it’s impossible to provide an exact answer without knowing the specifics of your project, there are some general guidelines that can help you plan for your remodel. Let’s take a look at what goes into a remodeling project and what factors could affect the timeline.

The Design-Build Process

At Builderwell Remodeling in Orange County, California, we use our signature design-build process to ensure our clients get the most out of their remodel, whether it’s a kitchen renovation, new construction, full house remodel, addition, or outdoor living space. The design-build process works by combining both planning/design and building/construction phases as one unified approach that is managed by our team of professionals. This allows us to create greater efficiencies and eliminates potential delays caused by having multiple contractors work on different aspects of the same project.

Factors Affecting Timeline

Of course, there are other factors that can affect the timeline of your remodeling project beyond just which approach is used. For example, if your project requires permits or involves structural changes to your home, these steps can add additional time to the process due to necessary inspections and reviews. Additionally, delays may be caused by weather conditions, supply chain shortages, or change orders that may arise. Every effort will be made by our team at Builderwell Remodeling to minimize any potential delays as much as possible when they occur and we will always keep you informed throughout your entire remodeling experience.
