The Importance of Understanding Your Priorities When Remodeling



The first and most important step of the home remodeling process is understanding why you are remodeling in the first place! Your answer to this question will be the foundation for your remodeling plan. In this blog post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Wilmington explains why finding your why—or, in other words, identifying your priorities—is such a vital step.

Identifying Your Priorities Will Help You Focus

It’s normal to have a huge wish list for your remodeling job. However, a long list won’t help you pick out the most important things you want to change in your home. If you want a focused design and a clear-cut budget, take the time to pare down your list.

Identifying Your Priorities Makes Things Easier for Your Contractor

Your contractor needs to know how to best allocate your budget. It’s normal for concessions and compromises to be made in most projects, and this isn’t necessarily a bad thing! As one of the top interior remodeling contractors in our area, we know firsthand how helpful it is to have the client’s clear vision guide remodeling decisions.

Identifying Your Priorities Will Give You a Starting Point

A clear goal sets you up for success. When you know which features to focus on and which to leave to your remodeler’s discretion, you’ll be better able to set expectations and have the outcome align with your vision.

How to Find Your Priorities

It’s simple! Most home remodeling companies recommend listing three to five priorities for your remodel. Rank them in order of importance and be as specific as possible. Next, see how well these priorities align with the reasons you chose to remodel. Do these priorities support your goals for the project? If they don’t, what other priorities can you add or change to meet those goals?
