Stages of a Remodel

When planning home remodeling Colorado Springs, you will want to consider every
step of the process. There are five distinct stages when it comes to a large home remodel.
Whether you are taking on a kitchen remodel, bathroom remodel, or even adding on square
footage to your home you will want to thoroughly think through the process. See below for all
of the stages involved in your next big home remodel.
1. Planning: There are an extensive number of features involved when planning a remodel.
It is helpful if you plan ahead and keep accurate notes. You should thoroughly plan out
the design and products that you wish to use. It can be helpful to keep backups in place
as well in case of product delays. Make sure you map out a realistic timeframe as well.
2. Budgeting: Depending on how you plan to pay for the remodel will dictate how you plan
to set your budget. If you plan to borrow money against your home such as a HELOC or
plan to refinance your home loan you will want to speak with a mortgage broker. This
will help you find out how much money you can realistically afford. If you plan to spend
cash, you likely already know your budget cap.
3. Demolition: Demolition can either be completed by your home remodeling Colorado
Springs company or even by yourself! It can also be a combination of the two if you are
hoping to save a little money on the process.
4. Construction: Depending on the size of your project you may want to consider moving
out during this process. It is likely that your heating and/or electric will be disrupted
during a home remodel.
5. Clean Up: There will be a lot of mess made during construction. Once the construction is
completed a general clean-up will be done but you will likely want to hire professional
help to do a deep clean.
