Remodeling is important for each home and
involves strict timelines for the successful
completion. While some do undertake the mammoth
project of renovation to make their homes look
beautiful, others do it to escalate property
value before listing it for sale. Whatever may
the reason be, there are several myths that are
involved in the renovation of a home in order to
have the seamless experience, here we share some
prevailing myths a homeowner should be aware of.
It is expensive
Remodeling is certainly not an expensive affair
if you set the budget limit for yourself and
stick to it no matter what. At times, what
happens is that irrespective of setting the upper
limit of Rs 10 per square feet for a tile, you
end up opting for a tile which costs Rs 25 per
square feet. The habit to not buy the raw
material within the budget will spike up the
complete cost on the renovation. Thus, you should
plan well in advance rather than regretting your
decisions later. Do it yourself Certainly,
renovation is a technical task and requires
expertise as well as specific skill set which
can't be addressed by a layman. It is advised not
to take up such tasks yourself. Instead, seek
professional help or assistance to undertake the
job. Also, such experiments can lead to fatal
accidents.
Remodeling takes a long time If you are planning
in advance and carry-out some solid research on
the time period taken in remodeling a house, it
won't be a timeconsuming affair. The process is
delayed because of the constant alterations to
the actual plan as well as the design or the
product. For instance, if you don't like the door
that was ordered by the contractor and it has
been reordered, t would, of course, take 5-6
working days to deliver which is automatically
stretch the time period for the process of
remodeling. Alterations during renovation
starting renovation remodeling process with
planning are the safest bet rather than making
some continuous alterations to ongoing work as it
might create chaos and confusion. If your
planning is in the head and not a blueprint, you
will end up making the repetitive changes to the
layouts. Thus, in order to avoid the situations,
sit down with the contractor and discuss the
ideas. Ask him to show the blueprints of the
floor plan as well as make corrections in it.
This will certainly bring out the best results at
completion. Opting for economical and contractor
is harmless In hope of saving costs as well as
keeping the expenses limited, it's common to opt
for the contractor who charges less. In the
process, however, compromising with quality, you
can end up paying the repetitive repairs that
might be required later. For example, f you have
quotations from three contractors, choosing least
expensive can backfire if you do not conduct the
background check on contractor quality. It is
advised to go for one with the skilled workforce
as well as has a sound reputation in the
market. Appearance is more important
The inhabitants make changes to the abode at
times get fooled by appearance and not the
simplicity or purpose of the design.

Preferably, before finalizing the contractor,
don't go with the appearance of the handiwork but
Look at the utility of trend of design as that is
certainly more important. Before you plan the
renovation process, make sure that you are aware
of the remodeling purpose behind the
beautification of your house or the functional
aspect. Definitely, this can help in earmarking
the budget, shortlisting contractors and tallying
the changes that are made at every step.
