  2. Undertaking a home remodeling calls for careful planning. You should identify your goal for the renovation. Do you want to increase your home’s resale value? Or, you simply want to do a complete makeover. Whatever your reasons, you need a detailed plan on how to approach the restoration.

Start taking measurements and identify changes will de done to the existing space. Remember that good planning will help you become cost-efficient.

  4. Set a Project Budget This brings you to the next important step. Set a realistic budget. You need enough money to spend for this venture regardless of the scope of work. Cost-efficiency means not exceeding the budget you have in mind. Be prepared for the costs involved in a home remodel. Therefore, determine all your targets and wishes in a worksheet. After this, research quickly on how to find out standard costs. This technique allows you to have an idea of your total expenses. Budgeting labor cost can be difficult. Here’s a tip. Labor usually accounts for 20 up to 40 percent of your entire budget. Likewise, include around 20% for contingency. However, the amount will depend on the extent and difficulty of the reconstruction. Expect several unforeseen issues that may arise during the renovation. You need to consider damaged foundation, defective electric wiring, need for rodent control, and leaking pipes. Once you have addressed said concerns, you can now allocate funds for lighting fixtures.
