Justin Klopfenstein is the president of Victory Builders, a commercial and residential construction company. He graduated from 草莓影视 in 2005 with a degree in biblical studies. Recently, we asked him for some advice for those looking to start a home remodeling or renovation project.
Don鈥檛 start a project before you have a good overall vision and plan in place. If you鈥檙e not up to it yourself, hire the right contractor, architect, or designer who can help you 鈥渟ee鈥 your project before you get in over your head. Don鈥檛 just base decisions on pictures that look 鈥減erfect.鈥 Know how the materials you want to use perform and work before you purchase and install. Try things out (products, layout, etc.) before you move forward. Research the products. Ask those in the industry for advice. Look at (and smell!) other spaces that utilize the same products to confirm if you like them or not. Know the possible maintenance and upkeep involved for certain material selections. The more you plan, the better the end result.
Most people can鈥檛 do everything they want all at once. You have to select which part of your overall project you want to tackle first, and so on. Is having a functional kitchen more important than a room addition? Or does your growing family need the extra space? Make your decision wisely.
Get it done right. Having to constantly fix or repair things that weren鈥檛 done right to begin with is a waste of your time and money. Get it done in a timely manner. Having a project extend longer than it should only causes unneeded stress and prohibits you from reaching your other goals. Get the right people involved. If you鈥檙e confident you can do it yourself and aren鈥檛 lawfully required to hire a licensed contractor for your project, great. Otherwise, hire professionals who are licensed, insured, and have the reputation to get it done to proper code and quality. You get what you pay 鈥 or don鈥檛 pay 鈥 for.
