How To Know When
To Hire A Contractor
Home renovations are often an exciting challenge, a fulfilling adventure that reshapes your home to better fit both your needs and identity. It can be tempting to dive into the work on your own, knowing that, at the end of the day, you’ve accomplished something great with your own two hands. But you don’t want to jeopardize the final product in favor of a DYI mentality.

Home renovations are often an exciting challenge, a fulfilling adventure that reshapes your home to better fit both your needs and identity. It can be tempting to dive into the work on your own, knowing that, at the end of the day, you’ve accomplished something great with your own two hands. But you don’t want to jeopardize the final product in favor of a DYI mentality.
Let’s face it – things happen
Someone gets sick then timelines and budgets that seemed manageable suddenly become formidable obstacles. You accidentally buy the wrong tools or use a material incorrectly. You discover that there is a previously unknown leak in the plumbing, or a problem with the electrical wiring.
For whatever reason, you get in over your head. This is why contractors are so important; they use their vast array of skills, experience, and resources to work with you, making your dream renovation a reality.

Choosing A Qualified And Reliable Contractor
How Big Does A Project Need To Be To Hire A Contractor?
It’s not a matter of how big a project is,
but how many steps it takes to bring to completion.
Chances are, you’ve been considering this renovation for a while.
Most of us don’t wake up in the morning and suddenly decide to rip apart the bathroom.
You may have even started small, maybe by re-caulking the tub or changing out the light fixtures above the sink.
smaller tasks such as these can be done on your own and are usually cheaper that way (assuming your individual project really is a little task).
1) while your caulking the tub you realize that the crack is showing significant water damage.
2) The light fixture you really want doesn’t fit the wall space.
Or 3), you may take a look at the bathroom and decide that the pastel-colored porcelain that was installed in the 60s isn’t quite your vibe anymore.
This is a perfect time to hire a general contractor (for those smaller tasks): when your project will significantly restrict your use of a room or space while the work is being done.
1)
For more higher scale projects that always require a general contractor: let’s say you’re considering adding a room or feature that isn’t already a part of your home. For instance, you may want to build a deck, porch, or a patio to maximize your ability to enjoy the outside world without leaving your home. Maybe you want to extend your garage because your Subaru Impreza won’t fit beside your Infiniti Q50 because it’s already crammed in beside your Nissan Versa…and you just bought home your dream car, a BMW i8 (Hey, it happens; we understand – you need extra space.)
