The Home Remodeling Process

If you’ve outgrown your home or, the living arrangement just isn’t working for you, it may be time for a change. One option is to build a more suitable home, but sometimes the most economical and least stressful thing to do (especially in these economic conditions) is stay where you are. Home remodeling can be an excellent choice and if you have a smaller project our home repair option might fit you perfectly.

Important Questions to Ask After Deciding on a Home Remodel  

  1. What are my wants, and needs?

  2. How much money can I or do I want to spend on remodeling the house?

  3.  How can I find the right builder that is competent in remodeling?

  4. Who will I get to do the design, and how can I match the design with my budget? 

  5. Who do I use as the decorator and where do they fit into the home remodel process?

What is Quality Home Remodel Construction?

At Kaufman Homes quality is the merging of excellent design and decorating, with appropriate products and materials, installed with superior workmanship. Kaufman Homes contracts with only the finest home remodeling subcontractors and craftsmen. There is a vast difference in products and workmanship and that along with amenity level is what drives the cost of a home remodel.  A good example is the different quality levels of framing expertise and materials including the grade of studs, rafters, and trusses.  Installation of all products greatly determines how well the home remodel will hold up over an extended period of time,  Vary any of the factors of design, decorating, quality products and no workmanship and you can have a big difference in price and a different building job. 

Choosing a Home Remodeling Contractor

The process of selecting a home remodeling contract is very important for the success of the project. The selected home remodeler needs to be compatible with your expectations, wants, wishes, desires and the amount of money you can or wish to spend.  Kaufman Homes has been remodeling for over 36 years and our many years of experience helps us more effectively communicate with the customer, sub-contractors, designers and decorators.  This experience also helps us create more accurate estimates along with a detailed and well-defined set of specifications, all which helps alleviate misunderstandings, keeps the project on budget, meets schedules and produces fewer change orders

The Design-Build and Decorator Process

At Kaufman Homes we have taken three separate entities, design and build and combined them with decorating. This consolidation of responsibilities leads to projects that satisfy the client’s vision, budget, and schedule. Our Design-Build and Decorator services enable us to provide creative design and planning, develop clearly written specifications and establish the home remodel costs, all under one roof.  The consistent relationship between the client and Kaufman Homes from design through production ensures good communication and minimizes unforeseen problems 

The Construction Process 

At Kaufman Homes we take the home remodel process very serious as we are invading someone’s home usually while they continue to live there.  We try to always be courteous of each member of the family to make our work compatible as much as possible with their everyday living, to keep them continually informed of the progress, to meet schedules, to keep the work site clean, to not start each day too early, and keep disruptions to a minimum.  When doing a home remodel, especially kitchens and baths, our goal is to get in and get out quickly so that your life can get back to normal.

Tips for Choosing a Home Remodeler  

Below are some of the tips that we recommend any customer perform prior to performing a remodel whether using Kaufman Homes or someone else.

  • Call or visit the website for the Construction Contractors Board (CCB) to make sure the home remodeler is licensed and bonded and how long they have been in business.
  • Be careful about getting more than on bid from different builders, with the idea of taking the lowest price. Most builders should be very competitive in price so make sure they are bidding on the same set of specifications.
  • Check references with more than on of the builder's clients. Call Kaufman Homes at 503-370-8390 to get our reference list.
  • Visit their website and read reviews if possible.
