Remodeling Tip # 4
Make your decisions based on value and quality, not just price.
Remodeling Tip # 5
Save your money by planning. Go through the design process first and choose everything you want to include in the new room(s), from appliances to light fixtures, etc. This will define your budget and prevent hasty decisions later in the project. Be sure to include all your product and material selections in the contract to avoid confusion and unnecessary change orders. Include the model, size, color, and other specifications. It is also wise to save 15-25 percent of your budget to allow for items added to the scope of work.
