Basics of Home Renovation- Where to Start

We understand, your home is a reflection of your individual style and well-being. With us, at Drakon Construction, you can rely on our knowledge and expertise. Our process comprises a feasibility study, a comprehensive design, and a detailed scope of work to offer a seamless custom home renovation experience.

Start with a Notebook

Planning and Design go a long way when it comes to home renovation. Make sure you sit down with a notebook to jot down your plan for the future project- from the structural architecture to the finer details. Know what you want from your dream house and make room for the priorities.

Beware of the Bigger Projects

If you need any form of floor or ceiling repair, make sure you include them in your budget. You won’t just be adding to your home’s beauty, you might even need to fix that leaky roof or the foundation, or the filtration system, and so on. These are intricate projects that require time. 

Plan for the Demolition Requirements

You will need to demolish and dispose of sections of your house that will then be replaced by later projects. Know that this is a huge undertaking which many homeowners tend to overlook until the project begins. But if you begin scrambling to make up for all the lost time at the last moment, it might cause problems and delays. Rent large containers for waste and carefully demolish all or some areas of the house. 

Plan Out HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical Jobs

People often forget to focus on their HVAC, plumbing, and electric errands while renovating their home. Make sure you have people within your reach who can sort out these essential aspects of any new property. Get in touch with a plumber to help figure out the drainage system. Ask an electrician to help you form the basis of your home’s energy usage. 

Think of Insulation, Drywall, and Windows

Know which windows you will prefer and think of the kind of wall that would be both financially and aesthetically feasible for you. Make sure you are convinced about the type of insulation you need and choose something that benefits you and your close ones. Insulation is of utmost priority, regardless of the aesthetics of your home.

Decide on Paints and Flooring

Next in line is deciding on the paint you want for your walls and the kind of flooring you wish to have. You will get hundreds of options in both these aspects, so choosing a style or color will be harder than it seems. Take some time and consult with professionals before making a decision.
