Successful remodels in 2023

Last month’s topic was about the “Dreaming” part of a home remodeling project. This month I have 2 topics to share: 

1) Tips for a successful 2023 remodel
2) Why I Love the Design Build business

Planning to remodel in 2023? There are several challenges homeowners face completing their remodeling projects these days:

Project design
Permitting times
Supply chain challenges

Designing a Project:

Design teams do not purposely design over budget, but budgeting to a design ends up being the most common approach. This approach can certainly create a project you love BUT the cost of construction may end up being too expensive to build causing additional time, money, and frustration. Remodeling is extremely complex and takes a highly skilled team with years of experience to complete a design that can be built within an approved investment range. 

Permitting:

The permitting process has become more complicated and time consuming causing up to 6 months and more for some projects. Start your project’s design early! 

Supply chain management:

We are in a time of relative uncertainty. Order your projects materials and appliances as early as possible to avoid delays.

Let Gordon Reese Design Buildstart your project design now to make sure a 2023 project completion is possible. It is never too early to start!

I love the Design Build business because there is no greater reward than visiting with homeowners two, five or ten years after their remodeling is complete and seeing that their home still looks and functions great. 

I love hearing stories about how an addition, new kitchen, or remodeled outdoor living area has enhanced a family’s life. Whether that is on a daily basis or during those special events and holiday celebrations. Creating these one-of-a-kind, personalized remodeling solutions for peoples’ homes is exactly why I started Gordon Reese Design Build and what fuels my passion for the remodeling industry.
