How to Live Through a Remodeling Project

When you decide it’s time to renovate your home, do you stay or do you go? There are pros and cons to choosing to live in your home or deciding to move out while a major project takes place, but staying in your house can make the whole process from start to finish less expensive and complex.

It can be a stressful journey, but there are ways to survive your remodel.

Be ready for dust and dirt

With any home project comes dirt and dust. At Balsitis Contracting, we do our best to keep dust under control by putting up protective plastic, but it still may invade different areas of the house. If you are remodeling one part of your home, keep other doors closed and use plastic sheeting to protect furniture or other valuables. We will communicate with you about when to expect heavy dust.

Create alternative plans for bathroom, kitchen, and living spaces

There are spaces you just can’t live without: bathrooms, first and foremost, followed by the kitchen. If you are renovating one bathroom, use another one if possible and design a schedule for use. Make the lack of a kitchen an excuse to order out and buy plenty of nonperishable food items. Finally, if you have kids and/or pets, be sure that at least one room is available to them for play.

Ride the emotional rollercoaster

Worry and stress are normal when work is being done on your home. Will the project be completed on time? Will it turn out the way you hoped? The Balsitis team members are experts and will work with you every step of the way to make your vision come to life. Joy is also a part of this process as you see parts of your remodel complete!

Partner with Balsitis Contracting

The most important part of the remodeling process is the relationship with your contracting partner and your communication with the team. Balsitis’ Transparent Process ensures clear communication of what will happen at each phase and step of the project. Questions will be answered, misunderstandings will be avoided, and you will see your space turn into a thing of beauty!
