A Handy Post-Remodeling Checklist

Renovating your home can make you feel better about the place you live. Completing a project can even lower levels of cortisol or “stress hormone,” according to experts. While a feeling of great satisfaction comes with accomplishing a home remodeling project, you should keep in mind that the work doesn’t completely end there. Here’s a list of tasks you need to finish post-remodel.

Final Walkthrough

Your contractor will do a final walk-through to ensure every aspect of the project is done correctly and to your satisfaction. Experienced contractors will pay attention to every detail and be quick to catch imperfections.

Cleanup

Dust and debris from a remodel can reach different parts of your home. Good remodelers usually make sure to contain the dust and include cleanup in their package. Don’t forget to replace furnace filters and consider having your ducts and furnace cleaned since they tend to collect a lot of dust.

Register Warranties

Fill out any warranty cards that come with the products you’ve purchased or register them online if possible. This will save you a lot of hassle if your appliances experience issues.

Purchase New Furniture

If your home renovation involved completely redesigning your space, then you may need to purchase furniture. Before you begin shopping, take measurements to make sure the items you want to buy will fit your space.

Update Insurance

You’ll likely need to make changes with the limits of your policy after your remodel, depending on the scale of your project. A city assessor may also come to appraise your remodeled home.

Create a Maintenance Checklist

By knowing how to properly care for the new features of your home, you can make the most of your investment. Take some time to study how to maintain any material that you’re not familiar with.

Celebrate!

Show off your new and improved home by hosting a party. After your remodel has been completed, your remodeler may schedule a professional photoshoot so they can include your project in their portfolio.
