How to Decide What to Prioritize in Your Remodel



As you plan out your home remodeling project, you’re probably figuring out what needs immediate attention. For instance, maybe your family room looks outdated, your kitchen needs expanding or your bathroom needs a full upgrade. To know what to prioritize when planning your home remodeling project, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of St. Louis Park has a few tips.

Your Budget

Your budget will play a major factor in determining what you’ll prioritize in your project. It can be discouraging if you don’t have enough money for certain projects and are forced to abandon your ideas. While it can be a bit disappointing to put improvements off because of money, it’s still better than accruing too much debt for your home remodel.

Necessities

After you’ve set your budget, we recommend prioritizing the safety of your home. Any home renovation project that involves outdated electrical systems, water damage or leaking plumbing should be done first. You also need to protect the investment you have in your home, so if you need to replace the roof or siding, that should be your first order of business. 

If windows or doors are giving you trouble, you can choose to make cosmetic improvements along with functional ones. Remodels that involve windows and insulation can also reduce your home’s energy costs.

Value for the Money

Give some thought to where you want to source the materials for your project. There are times when you’ll want to get the highest quality possible, regardless of the price. But if you don’t have the budget to buy all the best materials, then you’ll need to consider which will give you the best value for your project. For instance, upgrading the appliances in your kitchen will add more value than updating a powder room that’s hardly used.
