When is the right time to renovate your bathroom?
That's a big question with a lot to consider. There are numerous personal and financial considerations, but at Marks Building Co., we're dedicated to helping our customers - and our potential customers - figure out the perfect time to go through with a bathroom remodeling project.
Let's take a look.
Figuring Out the Right Time to Remodel Your Bathroom
You may not have thought about it, but there is definitely a best time to consider purchasing the materials for a bathroom remodel, and that time is right after the holidays.
Knowing that people get the “itch” to have a project like a bathroom remodel done before the holidays, materials tend to spike up after the summer, because as fall sets in the “itch” needs to be scratched. If it can wait until after the holidays, there will be a variety of very good material options offered at discount prices right after the holiday season.
And consider this: The impending project can become a great conversation starter during the holidays as you entertain suggestions from your friends and relatives. Contractors will be looking for business as well during this time, so it's perfect timing for both sides (and if you're interested in talking with a contractor about your bathroom project, contact the Marks Building Co. team - we'd love to work with you!).
It may work to do the job right after the first of the year, so at least prepare a list of what your project will entail and the materials needed to complete it so you can scour the web and brick-and-mortar locations for sales to piece together the best possible prices for materials at other times during the year.
Side note: When you work with Marks Building on your bathroom remodel, we'll take care of all that for you! When we start in on a project, we work with our customers to understand exactly what they want to build their dream bathroom, and our team works to make that happen.
When to Hire a Contract for Your Bathroom Renovation
When it comes to contractors, when do you consider hiring one? For us, the answer is simple: When anything structural is in the mix. In a bathroom remodel, this can include plumbing, electrical and, yes, sorry to say, demo. Everyone knows demo is the most fun part of any project because of the aggression it lets out, but overzealousness associated with that aggression can lead to creating an additional unnecessary repair. Bottom line: A contractor will know what, where, and why things need to be busted up and removed.
Also, when it comes to hiring a contractor, their best advertising is often word of mouth and how others feel about them, so use that to your advantage. When doing research for a local contractor you can trust, you'll likely be looking at the reviews other customers leave. In our case, we've included some of our reviews here so you can get a sense of what it would be like to work with Marks Building Co. on a project.
Last but not least: Be sure to work with your contractor on establishing a timetable for your project. Not all contractors have a clear line of communication or transparency with their customers, but Marks Building Co. goes to great lengths to ensure everyone is on the same page through every step of the project. Don't be afraid to ask questions and ensure you are comfortable with the project - after all, this is your house. We're here to make sure you'll be happy with your bathroom for years to come.
