HAWAII RENOVATION 9
to give you a fairly accurate estimation of how much your project will cost. However, it’s still a good idea to determine what your absolute spending ceiling is for the project and not go above it. This means making sure you budget in some extra space below this mark to allot for unexpected expenses.
ORGANIZE YOUR CALENDAR
Delays during a renova- tion project will cost you time and money, so it pays to eliminate them when possi- ble. Do you plan to remain in your home during the proj- ect? Are there any seasonal plans — like a family vacation — that could interfere with the progress? Understand these potential hazards early
and you can plan for ways to minimize them.
WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN’T DO
Know what you can do and, more importantly, what you can’t. When you move from a home improvement project to a renovation, you’re also probably moving from DIY to hiring an expert. Tackle what you can yourself — in- cluding buying materials for the project, which will save you the contractor’s mark- up — but leave the things you don’t know how to do in the hands of the profes- sionals. Doing so will make sure that you’re happier with the result and that you don’t have to pay someone to fix your mistakes.
Start your project today.
No matter your motivation for starting a home renova- tion, it’s easy to be excited about the result. Take your time, plan your process using the tips above, and be ready
for any hurdles that come your way, and that result will be all the more satisfying.
