The spring and summer months tend to be the most popular time to remodel a home in Wisconsin thanks to the warmer weather. Plus, some people experience “spring fever” which may give them a boost of energy and excitement to improve their home. However, the truly best time to make updates to your home is when your budget and schedule both allow. If you don’t have enough money saved up to make the updates you prefer or you currently have too much on your plate, now is probably a bad time for a home remodel.
Of course, it all depends on the contractor you select too. When you work with a contractor like Property ReVision, you will receive help on every aspect of the project from start to finish. We make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Not only does Property ReVision have real estate and design expertise on staff, the way we do business is user-friendly and transparent to ensure you understand every part of the remodeling process. We operate with honesty, clarity, and timeliness.
Looking for more insight on the best time to remodel your home? Here are some other factors to consider:
Weather: Time of Year
The weather definitely plays a factor into the best time to complete a home remodel. If you are working on a project that involves opening windows, the warmer months would be the ideal time for that type of work. Kitchen remodels tend to work out nicely in the warms months so you can easily grill or be outside while your kitchen is out of commission. The perk of a basement remodel is that you can complete the project during the cold weather. Plus, there is minimal interruption to the homeowner as the work being completed is downstairs and away from the main living areas.
Materials: Supply and Demand
The cost of materials can fluctuate over time. While you’d rather purchase materials when they are on sale, that isn’t always an option. However, if you are able to plan ahead and have your design or selections determined, you can buy materials while on sale and complete the project at a later date.
Busy Periods: Contractor Availability
Have you ever experienced major rush hour traffic or a super busy restaurant? If you have, you probably learned that some times are better than others for certain activities. Contractor availability is an important component to consider as you select the time to remodel your home. Contractors may be busier in the spring or summer months due to the warm weather. However, as mentioned above, basement projects can keep them busy throughout the colder months. It’s important to understand the contractor’s availability to complete your project to ensure your getting a great experience.
