How To Renovate A House - Mortgage Market Corp.

In some videos about home renovation, it only takes about twenty-four minutes to renovate a home completely. But, that’s not really true. The truth is, home renovation is a difficult and complex thing to do. If you are planning to renovate your home, here are some of the things you should know:

• Planning and Design

A sketch on your cocktail napkin, a firm set of thoughts or full architectural plans about the ways to remodel a house must progress. It’s less frustrating and cheaper to correct the mistakes before remodel takes physical form. See to it that you have your own renovation’s funding. Have a list of DIY projects and some works that you want to be done professionally. Search for subcontractors and contractors for those jobs you don’t want to do yourself. You should also apply for the permits.

• Windows, Siding, Water Issues, Foundation, and Roof

Roof repair and replacement, foundation repair, stopping the infiltration of water, and repairing or installing windows and siding are some of the projects that should be done first for the reason that subsequent projects can be affected by these. Protect future renovation work through ensuring that your house will not collapse on you and that this will be kept dried. Make some major foundation repairs to the areas including joists, weakened walls, and carrying beam.

• Demolition

Disposing and demolishing of the sections of your house that will be replaced by the later projects should be handled with care. Consider renting a big container for waste. Demolish some areas of your home properly and exercise caution whenever you are demolishing the surfaces coated with the lead-based paints.

• HVAC Ductwork, Plumbing, and Electrical

These are crucial services that should be installed once the ceilings and walls are open. With ceiling and walls open, it’s time for HVAC company to install the ductwork for central air conditioning and heating. You can also operate new plumbing and electrical systems. Plumbing inspectors and electrical experts should visit your place.

• Insulation

Home renovation also includes laying insulation in the ceiling and walls. You have to take note that insulation goes fast, so ensure that your dry wall company is ready to go once done with this.

• Drywall

This aspect in renovating a house includes a second inspection from electrical inspector that will provide you a go-ahead to close the walls. The drywallers hang the sheets of the drywall, apply the drywall compound as well as let it dry. Once dried, they will sand it smooth. There are times that they’ll repeat the process once they achieve seamless surface.

There are other things that are involved in the process of renovating a house. If you are not sure about the steps you’re doing, it would be wise to ask for help from the experts. In this way, you can be assured that you are on the right track of successful home renovation and you’ll be able to get the results you want for your home.
