Remodeling Tips in 2022

Spring is a great time to begin planning your remodeling projects for 2022. By improving your existing home, you are creating higher home equity while also designing a space that fits your current needs.

Before you begin remodeling your kitchen, bathroom or finishing your basement, consider these guidelines.

Design for the Future: Trendy colors and decor will come and go but energy efficiency will never go out of style. Incorporating green elements into your remodeling project will bring long-term cost savings,  higher resale value, and enhanced living comfort. Plus, you know that you're also doing your part to reduce your environmental impact.

Be Flexible: There will be supply-related delays in your remodeling project so expecting that up front will save you stress down the road. Have clear expectations of your project milestones and also create a backup plan in case of delays. Project disruptions can be inconvenient but having a contingency plan can make them more tolerable.

Hire Good Help: Hiring contractors with solid reputations and more than three years of experience is critical to overall success and peace of mind during your home remodeling project. Ensure that your contractor is part of the National Association of Remodeling Industry (NARI) and has positive references.
