A complete house renovation begins with understanding the sheer scale of the project, as well as accurately planning what to expect at every stage. Here's what you'll want to keep in mind before you begin, as well as how to best choose a whole house remodeling contractor in Sacramento.
No two home renovation projects are alike, so it's a good idea to hire experienced, reputable and reliable contractors who specialize in their respective fields. At HouseIdea, our remodeling contractors in Sacramento are true experts in their field. We work alongside certified, professional electricians, plumbers, architects and more to help you realize your full home remodeling vision.
But just putting it down on paper (or blueprints) is only the beginning. You also need to have a realistic idea of the costs involved. Depending on the extent of the whole house remodel, you may want to consider a home equity loan or a similar source of funding. However, the bottom line is that with a whole home remodel you should also consider the resale value. Many Americans will sell their home at least once in their life. Riding out that entire 30 year mortgage is rare, so renovating your house could be a smart investment not only for you, but for future buyers as well.
When hiring professional home remodelers, it's also important to consider where you are. You may need certain permits and there may be zoning issues involved in your remodel. At HouseIdea, we understand and can help you secure the necessary permits and approvals to handle your full home remodel.
A home remodel means different things to different people and for some, even the term "whole house remodel" refers to a combination of rooms rather than the entirety of the home. There's also the "fun things" to consider, or the things that all homeowners look forward to when they envision a home remodel in Sacramento. For example, you can completely overhaul the style of your home, redo the decor and theme and work with your design-build contractors to see how your vision can come to life with different design styles and additions.
Beyond the style and look of your home, you'll also need to keep the technical points in mind. For example, your utilities. Gas, water and electricity may add some different challenges and constraints to your remodeling plans, especially if you're planning to significantly remodel or change the structure of your home considerably. By consulting the remodeling team at HouseIdea, you can have an idea of what changes are more do-able than others before the work begins so that you'll know how to budget accordingly and what to expect.
Another finer point of whole home remodeling is structural requirements. If you want to add on an addition, for example, every city or jurisdiction, including Sacramento, has its own requirements as to what constitutes an acceptable change according to its building code. Here again, the experts at HouseIdea can advise you on what's possible and what isn't as you work with our design-build firm in Sacramento on your full house remodeling.
It can feel overwhelming to know where to start when it comes to home remodeling, but as a company that has done whole home remodels for every size and style of home and nearly every budget, we've seen precisely what's possible and have helped thousands of homeowners across Sacramento achieve their vision for their home.
This is one area where you don't want to cut corners, forget permits or try to do it all yourself. It's a hefty investment, but one that can come with a considerable payoff in the end when you see your design come to life and how amazing it can be to maximize your space and your home's efficiency. It's an exciting undertaking to be sure, and we want to be there to help you with it every step of the way!
