How LONG Could a Remodel Take??

DSC_6566_0164 We have been discussing renovation and staging recently and I’m sure you’ve been wondering how long it can take for some projects. It does depend on what we run into once the project starts like unforeseen repairs, product delays or weather. However, there are a few projects that are a bit easier to project than others … here are just a few: 

One Bedroom

This usually can take one to two months which includes the contractor discussing the details with the planner, examination of the grounds, check to make sure if there may be any permits needed and to possibly work with any foundation or structural concerns. 

A Bathroom

While bathrooms do take less time and money than a kitchen, you can still plan 2 to 3 months from start to finish. Generally bathrooms do not need extensive electrical or ventilation additions, but plumbing can take quite a bit of time, especially if you’re replacing a simple tub with a ceramic walk-in shower with multiple shower heads. Planning is essential when planning a bathroom and it is also essential you work with a seasoned professional to bring your plans to life. 

Room Addition

If the contractor builds the additional outside room and doesn’t open the wall until after it’s almost completed, it won’t seem long at all. However, it will take about one to two months.
