So you’re thinking of undertaking a kitchen or bathroom renovation or remodel. Congratulations! Taking on such a project will greatly enhance your day-to-day life and make your home work better for you, not to mention the possibility of increasing your home’s value. Hiring an experienced professional team like Thomas Kitchen and Bath will dramatically reduce the stress involved with a renovation or remodel, but there are still quite a few things you should consider before you schedule a consultation:
Timing
A kitchen and full bath remodel will take roughly six to eight weeks from start to finish. The most important variable when it comes to timing is the type of materials you will need as well as their availability. Unfortunately, due to pandemic-related supply chain disruptions, we are at the mercy of our materials’ availability, so you’d be smart to factor that in as well. You won’t have access to your kitchen or bathroom during much of the process, so plan and budget accordingly. Additionally, you should take into account when your renovation will start—lead times are typically three months out.
Cost
At Thomas Kitchen and Bath, we don’t treat anything as a “cookie cutter renovation.” We value and provide customized solutions based on our specific customers’ needs. Thus, you should understand that pricing will be highly variable due to the customized solutions and materials you choose.
Your Wants
Though Thomas Kitchen & Bath will act as a guide throughout your process and advise you on the impact of any decisions you make, we want all of our remodels to be customer-focused. This means that you should come to the process knowing what you want and how you will use your new space. Don’t worry about staying on top of trends to maximize your home’s resale value, as these change quickly. Focus on what you love, and would enjoy in your home!
