  12. Five Tips For A Successful Remodel • Sufficient Pre-Planning • Choosing the Right Team • The Right Paperwork • Setting Construction Expectations • Getting “Peace of Mind”

  13. Sufficient Pre-Planning It’s fun to think about something NEW! But what is my project?

  14. Sufficient Pre-Planning • Do I want to add • additional floors or rooms?

  15. Sufficient Pre-Planning Financial Considerations Are Key When Planning For Your Remodel. • What is my intended investment range for the project itself? • Are additional meal costs likely (i.e. with a kitchen remodel)? • Will I need to rent a hotel room or incur furniture storage costs? • Have I included taxes and possible furniture needs for my new ttttspace?

  16. Sufficient Pre-Planning Do I want to stay during construction or do I have an option to live elsewhere?

  17. Sufficient Pre-Planning We’d love to tell you that the remodeling process will be all sunshine and roses, but we’d be lying if we did. There are times during the construction process where progress is not as evident and you need faith that the results will be worth it.

  18. Choosing The Right Team Choosing the right construction team for your project is important. • Do they understand your vision? • Do they have a design resource available to help you? • Do you know who will be in your home? • Are they licensed and bonded for all activities they’ll do? • Have you received a referral or checked references? • Do they warranty their work? • Do you trust them? What is your gut instinct?

  19. The Paperwork Paperwork to Look For: • Drawings • Scope of Work • Selection Lists • 4. The Contract • 5. Warranty Information

  20. The Paperwork Your drawing should NOT be on a napkin or an envelope.

  21. The Paperwork Drawings should look professional and contain dimensions.

  22. The Paperwork Scope of Work & Construction Specifications

  23. The Paperwork Selection Lists

  24. The Paperwork The Contract or Construction Agreement

  25. Setting Construction Expectations Prior to construction beginning, your contractor should: Meet with you Review documents Review selections with samples Identify who is the primary communicator for the project Agree to a communication format

  26. Setting Construction Expectations Should a change arise during a project, it should come in writing and be accompanied by the associated costs, timeline and overall project effect.

  27. Setting Construction Expectations Remember this chart? Emotions go up and down during the project. Certain parts of the construction process are more gratifying than others.
