We Have Answers
What should I consider before beginning a home renovation project?
Before starting a home renovation project, consider why you’re looking to renovate, consider your desired outcome, and keep in mind what a comfortable budget and timeline would be for you. Also make sure to hire a reputable contractor so they can help you with every step of the project.
How do I choose the right contractor for my renovation project?
Look for a contractor with experience, licenses and certifications, insurance and references. Be careful of contractors who will do anything to come in at the cheapest price to get the project, or those who are not fully transparent in sharing their insurances/certifications, or their process.
How long will my home renovation project take?
The timeline for a home renovation project varies depending on the size and complexity of the project. Some factors that may affect the timelines would be permits/inspections, material procurement, and subcontractor availability. At Thorstein Construction Ltd, we are committed to working with you to set a realistic timeline and keep you informed every step of the way so you’re not kept in the dark when it comes to what’s happening with your project.
Will I be able to stay in my home while my renovation is taking place?
Depending on the scope of the renovation and what area(s) of the home we’re renovating, staying in your home may be possible. For example – if we are renovating the basement or a bathroom where access to another toilet and shower are accessible, then this will create minimal disruption as it is isolated to only one area of the home. However, if we are doing a full home renovation or even the kitchen/main floor, then it may be best to consider living with a friend or relative, or even taking that long vacation you’ve been wanting to take while we finish. Either way, we work with you to accommodate your schedule and ensure there is minimal disruption to your daily life.
