A Simple Checklist for Your Home Remodeling Plans




Home improvement projects can be major endeavors requiring lots of planning. To reduce stress, it’s important that you make the right preparations before the work begins.

Local Georgia roofer Residential Concerns is here to guide you on navigating a home remodeling project through this simple checklist.

Set Priorities 

You most likely don’t have an unlimited budget for your project. Before you hire a pro to help you with your plan, make a list of priorities for the project. These include things you want the most, things you’d like but aren’t necessarily essential, and things you can pass on for now.

Select Your Contractor

Ask friends and family members for references and read reviews online when looking for a contractor. Visit the websites of the National Association of Remodelers (NARI) or the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). Members of these organizations are bound by strict business practices and a code of ethics.

Secure the Necessary Permits

Residential roofing pros need to secure permits to push through with a project that involves a structural change to the home’s exterior. The same goes for an interior remodeling endeavor. Make sure any permits are cleared before the project begins. Note that a good contractor will be well informed about local codes and can help you obtain the necessary permits.

Make Home Arrangements

Remodeling can get messy, so you need to make sure your belongings are protected. During a roofing project, for example, clear any outdoor furniture away from the work area and make sure your landscape is protected.
