Whole-home renovations are significant projects that can not only breathe new life into your property, but they can also increase your curb appeal and raise your property value if you’re planning to sell. Due to this process being so extensive, however, you may find yourself wanting to know exactly what you should expect during this time.
Once you decide on a design that both fulfills your desires for the new house while still being practical, the demolition phase begins. This may involve removing outdated fixtures, tearing down walls, or even taking apart entire rooms. The level of disruption depends on the extent of the work, such as moving plumbing, electrical systems, or structural changes, but it is always best during whole-home renovations to expect your home to be out of commission for quite some time. Some whole-home renovations can take several weeks to several months to complete. Depending on your own comfort levels, you may want to stay with family or friends or take the opportunity for a vacation.
The construction process for whole-home renovations is almost like building a house from scratch. Our experienced contractors will set up frames for any walls we took out, install new insulation and drywall, and hook up any water or electrical fixtures that need to be reattached.
After the structural work is complete, we’ll begin installing your new floors, painting the walls, and setting up fixtures like cabinets, countertops, and other decorative elements. Once your whole-home renovation is complete, you will have a shining new home right where the old one stood; it’ll be like you moved, but without all the hassle of selling!
