–(PR.com)– Remodel

of
Idaho
is
East
Idaho’s
longest
running
remodeling
company
and
over
the
past
two
decades
has
become
the
most
trusted
home
remodeling
contractor.
If
you
are
considering
or
pursuing
a
home
remodel,
RPI
would
like
to
share
with
homeowners
key
planning
steps
to
avoid
costly
errors.
Whether
your
intentions
are
to
increase
the
value
of
your
property
or
update
the
old
style,
upgrade
appliances
or
improve
the
function
of
the
space,
home
remodels
can
be
exciting
and
overwhelming.
Starting
a
remodel,
like
most
things,
requires
a
plan.
The
better
the
plan,
the
easier
the
journey.
To
remodel
a
kitchen,
bathroom
or
a
house,
treat
it
as
if
it
is
a
business
project.
Many
first
timers,
start
by
collecting
images
of
kitchens
and
bathrooms
in
a
dream
book
or
posted
on
a
bulletin
board.
Over
time,
you
will
begin
to
see
similarities
in
your
idea
collection
and
similar
features
will
start
to
jump
out
at
you.
As
you
get
closer
to
making
your
remodel
a
reality,
start
by
clearly
defining
your
goals
and
your
budget,
then
create
a
more
detailed
plan,
secure
necessary
permits,
and
hire
contractors
if
needed.
According
to
Austin
Crystal,
owner
of
Remodel
Professionals
of
Idaho,
“Because
remodeling
may
be
overwhelming
for
so
many
people,
it
is
important
to
consider
the
scope
of
work,
design
inspiration,
and
timeline
before
beginning
any
demolition
or
construction.
Nonetheless,
you
will
want
throughout
the
process
to
manage
costs,
communicate
effectively
with
professionals,
and
ensure
proper
inspections
and
cleanup
are
addressed,
and
the
reasons
why
many
homeowners
consider
hiring
a
professional.”
Here’s
a
more
detailed
breakdown
to
get
started:
1.
Define
Your
Goals
and
Budget:
Determine
what
you
want
to
achieve
with
the
remodel
and
establish
a
realistic
budget,
including
a
buffer
for
unexpected
expenses;
generally,
about
10%
to
15%
above
your
estimate.
2.
Plan
and
Design:
Create
a
detailed
plan,
including
design
inspiration,
desired
layout,
and
a
timeline
or
schedule
for
the
project.
3.
Secure
Permits
and
Materials:
Obtain
necessary
permits
from
your
local
municipality
and
source
materials
according
to
your
design
and
budget.
Depending
on
your
materials,
like
appliances,
tubes
or
cabinet
hardware,
some
may
have
to
be
ordered
and
shipped.
4.
Hire
Professionals
(if
needed):
Depending
on
the
complexity
of
the
remodel,
consider
hiring
an
architect,
interior
designer,
or
contractor.
It’s
always
good
to
get
three
opinions
in
any
field
before
signing
a
contract.
5.
Demolition:
Carefully
remove
existing
fixtures,
materials,
and
structures
according
to
your
plan.
6.
Construction:
Begin
the
main
construction
phase,
focusing
on
structural
work,
electrical,
plumbing,
and
HVAC
systems.
7.
Finishing
Touches:
Install
flooring,
paint
walls,
and
add
final
touches
like
trim,
fixtures,
and
hardware.
8.
Clean
Up:
Thoroughly
clean
the
space
and
ensure
all
debris
is
properly
disposed
of.
Tips
for
a
Successful
Remodel:
Research:
Thoroughly
research
your
project,
including
design
ideas,
materials,
and
potential
contractors.
Prioritize:
Determine
which
areas
of
your
home
are
most
important
to
remodel
and
prioritize
your
budget
and
timeline
accordingly.
Communicate:
Maintain
open
communication
with
your
contractor
and
other
professionals
throughout
the
process.
Stay
Organized:
Keep
all
documents,
plans,
and
receipts
organized
to
avoid
confusion
and
potential
delays.
Be
Prepared
for
Surprises:
Remodeling
projects
often
encounter
unexpected
issues,
so
be
prepared
to
adjust
your
plans
and
budget
as
needed.
