TIPS TO DEAL WITH STRESS ON HOME REMODELING Everyone knows that remodeling a home takes a lot of planning. What will it cost? What will it look like? Who will build it? Where will we stay during construction? These questions help people map out a path to a successful outcome. Come up with a project budget. Then add another 10 percent for unplanned expenses. Go to kitchen and bath showrooms and see what your renovation budget can buy. Labour and materials add up fast, as do miscalculations both big and small. Also, the dearth of skilled labourers means you may have to wait to get certain types of work done. Do the same with your contractor. Always be polite; you’re asking for accountability here, not miracles. Find a very good contractor. Get leads from friends, relatives, colleagues or your designer, if you have one. You can find a reliable pro by checking references and asking not only about the work itself but also about the contractor’s reliability. When you hire a contractor, make sure he or she is fully insured and bonded, get all agreements in writing and clarify payment schedules and which party will be responsible for permits, upfront payment for materials and any other details you don’t want to stress about later.
