Pro Tips: How to Start Your Remodeling Project



When planning a remodel, it can be intimidating to see all the elements of the upgrade and you may not know where or how to start. Whether you’re looking to replace bathtub with walk-in shower, install new flooring or even remodel your entire kitchen, there are a few steps you’ll need to take to get started.

Gather Ideas

Of course, you’ll need to decide what you want out of the remodel. If you’re looking to improve the accessibility and safety of your bathroom through aging-in-place features, start by asking friends and family members who’ve recently tackled the same improvements. You know you can trust them to recommend the best products, features and contractors for your needs.

Visit Showrooms and Design Centers

Visiting home improvement showrooms and design centers is a great step to get your remodel started off on the right foot. This gives you the chance to see what materials, products, appliances and other features look like up close, which can help you make major design choices for your kitchen and bathroom remodel or attic renovation. Getting to stroll through the showroom with a designer also helps your contractor get a feel for your personal tastes before the project begins.

Use Internet Resources

Many homeowners find luck browsing the Internet for home renovation trends and invest in remodels that can boost their property value. Research can help you manage your expectations and give you a better idea of what will work best for your home.

Create a Wish List

After doing your research, you can now make a list of every upgrade you’d like to get out of your home improvement efforts. We recommend dividing the items into three categories: must-have, would-like-to-have and dream items. This list will help tell you which items to cut if you encounter budget constraints or which items to add if some upgrades aren’t as pricey as estimated.

Consult Kitchen and Bath Designers

Executing something as big as a kitchen and bath remodel requires the skills, knowledge and experience of a professional. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen® of Ogden can serve as both your professional designer and contractor. We have what it takes to ensure the success of your remodeling project, no matter how simple or complex it may be.
