How Do I Prepare for a Renovation?

There are a number of things that you need to do in order to prepare for a custom home renovation in Calgary. First, you’ll need to establish a budget. When it comes to working on a big project, hidden costs and unforseen extras have a way of sneaking up on you. It’s best to know exactly how much you want to spend before starting. Once you’ve established a budget, it’s time to do some research and find a designer that will give you exactly what you want.


How Much is it Going to Cost?

The cost of custom renovation project in Calgary is entirely dependent on what it will entail. How much money you want to spend is completely up to you. At Interiors With Elegance, we can specifically tailor your project to fit any budget you come up with. We recommend you make a pre-commencement budget, which will factor in all the variables that could be involved with your Calgary home renovation.


Who Should I Hire to Complete my Project?

When looking to hire a contractor, it’s important to d


o your research before signing any documents committing to your project. There are a lot of details that come with custom home renovations in Calgary. It’s important to research the appropriate contractor for the job. When possible, try to obtain references from real people who have had work done by them. Word of mouth is always the best confirmation that you’ve made the right decision. Although you will be asked to pay some portion of the project up front, be wary of any contractor who asks for too much money before any work has even started.


How Long Will the Project Take?

Again, this will depend on the scope of the project in question. However, your contractor should lay out a complete schedule for each step of the project. This will give you an idea of how long your individual project will take to complete.
