But be careful you must be prepared to avoid these common mistakes, we do not want to turn this exciting process into a headache, so let’s take note. 

Don’t Spend Money with the incorrect renovation

Unless you really want a specific renovation, you must avoid spending your money unnecessarily. A lot of homeowners want to invest the money by renovating but most of them don’t know how to do it. If your case is invest to boost the value of your property or if you bought a house to sell it, you have to analyze what exactly the real estate want, for example, an incorrect renovation could be a pool in your backyard, that is a definitely bad idea, as I mentioned unless you dream be a pool for you and your family, this project only will bring costs and will be harder to sell the property, so if your plan is make easier to sell your house, a nice kitchen or bathroom renovation will be an excellent option. 

Cheapest Isn’t Always Best

I am the kind of person who likes saving, because who wouldn’t like to save money?. But in this construction and renovation field not always is a good idea, investing in cheaper materials or because sometimes the budget is shorter, replace a good quality by acceptable qualities in the future it could cost you more money, for example in a kitchen with heavy traffic from the flooring to the quality of the cabinetry should be high, otherwise the kitchen will require several renovations in a short time.

Always Ask 

You should not feel embarrassed or assume you have been clear enough with what exactly you need or want, in a project a lot of misunderstandings could happen when the owner and the designer doesn’t have clear ideas. Probably you aren't the expert in the construction field, and you don’t need to be, but it's your money you’re investing.

Not setting up a timeline

In most cases time is money, our advice for you is to set up a timeline, we don’t want to waste the time unnecessarily, but problems and delays can occur during a renovation, for example changes in the weather or  permit delays.

That’s why you have to be realistic with your deadline as a contractor or homeowner. Working in detail with the correct planning is important to be prepared in case unexpected events come. As more detail is available for the professional, they can prevent or handle everything in the correct way.

Avoid those common  mistakes by hiring a qualified professional from the start. Their experience will ensure you don't waste your money and your renovation be successful according to your wishes and budget, in the right order, and without needing to redo work in between.
