  1. Here are 10 things to keep in mind when you are considering a home renovation Macedon Ranges project. 1) Set a budget! No matter what the size of the project it is important to set a budget and stick to it, otherwise, it is really easy to overspend! Save for it rather than getting a loan if at all possible. You can talk to others who have had similar renovations and get an idea of what the costs are. 2) Select the best contractor Of course, the skill and experience of the builder Macedon Ranges or elsewhere is going to have a huge impact on how the project goes, and how it looks in the end. You want someone with skill, someone reliable and honest, and someone with experience in the renovation work you are hiring them to handle. Choose someone who comes recommended, with good reviews, who has a promising portfolio and references who are positive about their experience.

  2. 3) Have realistic plans There have to be realistic plans when it comes to your project. It needs to fit within your budget and you need to be honest about the time there is, the existing home, limitations there might be on the room there is, local laws and such. If you plan too big it will either never happen or take a long time to happen. 4) Do enough research Spending some time doing research can make a lot of difference in avoiding problems later in the project. Gather your work on a board, not just writing but images too. 5) Take care with all the details Doing research and considering the details is also how you can avoid things like ordering the wrong materials, or not enough or too many of something. 6) Consult with experts Talking to experts is a good way to make sure you have good plans and have not missed any details. Have experts help you draw up the plans, get referrals from others who have used them and recommend them, like friends or neighbours for example.

  3. 7) Think about your carbon footprint When you are planning a project talk to your builder Macedon Ranges about what the options are to have a greener project and to create a greener home. It might mean having different insulation, windows, making sure windows and ductwork are well sealed, updating appliances, using sustainable materials, recycling and reusing where possible and so on. 8) Avoid second-guessing your decisions A common problem that happens with building projects is that people second guess their choices and start making changes in the middle of a project. This causes delays and wastes materials and it can make the experience less positive. 9) Think about a lasting style Try to go with something that will last long term rather than the latest fad in style and then you regret it 2 years later when that is no longer in vogue! 10) Stay in communication with your builder With any home renovation Macedon Ranges or home builder macedon ranges the most successful projects are those where there is great communication with your builder.
