What to Expect During a Remodel & How to Manage Remodeling Stress

A home remodeling project is a milestone. However, milestones can be as overwhelming as they are exciting—and your very own remodeling project is no exception. Needless to say, remodeling your home will come with challenges and stressors that you should be prepared to deal with.

In this article, kitchen remodeling company DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Orland Park lists a few things you should expect when you remodel your house.

Dirt & Dust

It’s no secret that renovation projects involve dust and dirt everywhere. To cut down on this issue, your remodeler should isolate the working area from the rest of the house with temporary walls. This will help to manage or prevent most of the dust from getting into the remaining living spaces. However, if you’re asthmatic or have allergies, you might have to consider moving out temporarily.

Noise

Whether it’s a wholehouse or a kitchen remodel, be prepared to deal with noise. Children will find it difficult to nap, unless they can sleep through the pounding sounds of hammers, thumping nail guns, compressors and whining saws. Should the noise be too much to bear, consider investing in noise-canceling earplugs.

Delays

Go into this project knowing that the timeline you and your contractor are working with will likely change. In the real world, shipments get delayed, the weather is unpredictable and change orders happen. You’ll (probably) be able to keep a cooler head and make better decisions if you allow your timeline to be flexible enough to accommodate minor delays.
