Similar to working with any service provider, homeowners have many fears when working with renovation contractors in Edmonton. In this two-part blog, we will explore homeowners’ common renovation fears when hiring renovation contractors in Edmonton and how to overcome them! Read on to learn more!
1. Disappointing Results
One of the first fears homeowners think of when hiring renovation contractors in Edmonton is whether they’ll get the finished product they’d hoped for. It’s a common (and valid) fear that homeowners have before any remodelling project because not only are they investing time into the project, but they’re also investing a large sum of money in building the space of their dreams.
2. Going Over Budget
It’s no secret that renovations are expensive, but what happens if the price of the materials suddenly increases? Will you be paying the difference? How will that affect your overall financial plan? As we’re heading into significant price changes in 2023, homeowners often fear sudden price increases throughout their renovation projects.
3. Taking longer time than promised
Time is a variable factor in renovation projects, especially if you’re renovating multiple areas simultaneously. While renovation contractors in Edmonton cannot control 100% of the project due to unforeseen delays such as bad weather, inspector delays, labour constraints or material delays, they should be able to manage expectations of your renovation timeline. Unfortunately, delaying the final date of the project is a common frustration many homeowners experience throughout their renovation projects.
4. Post-Renovation Work
During the “Final Walkthrough,” homeowners might seem happy with the finished product, but that does not eliminate the possibility of problems arising a few days later. Some areas might be unfinished, done poorly or even require a complete change. Even though post-renovation work is not a common occurrence with renovation contractors in Edmonton, it is frustrating for homeowners to call in further help after spending time and money on the renovation project.
5. Disruption
Home renovations will disrupt your daily routine, whether that be basement, bathroom or kitchen renovations. For a period of time, you won’t be able to use areas of your home as you usually would, and this can get frustrating for many homeowners. Make sure to have an alternative option for the room you’re currently renovating, or see if you can stay over at a family or friend’s house until the renovation is complete.
