When planning a full home renovation in Hampton Hill, it’s important to have a clear vision of what outcome you would like to achieve out of the renovation.
Whether it’s a change to the layout of your home or fixing issues with insulation or structure, a clear plan can help the construction team give you an idea of any potential issues they may come across and a rough time frame for completion.
A full home renovation isn’t a project to be taken lightly, a budget should be planned with a contingency in place and a thorough plan drawn up for the renovation.
What happens during a full home renovation?
The very first steps of a full home renovation in Hampton Hill would be setting out a detailed budget and working with the construction team to create the design for the renovation. Some people are simply aiming to modernise or refresh the existing space whereas other renovations require extensive repair work and a change to the existing layout of the home - it’s important to factor in the cost of potentially replacing windows, flooring, plaster and upgrades to the home's electrics and plumbing. A reputable full home renovation specialist will ensure that the changes you’re making to the home don’t just benefit the aesthetics of the home, making sure the new space is not only structurally sound but also fit for purpose and every aspect of the home is working in harmony. Once the plans are drawn up, if applicable you would then need to submit the applications for planning permission and building regulations.
Once the plans are approved and a design has been set out, the next step is to start by removing the fixtures that are no longer needed. Once the home is stripped down and the structure visible, checks would be carried out to ensure any structural issues or hidden issues are dealt with accordingly. That’s why it’s so important to have a contingency in place to cover potential issues such as damp, issues with the roof, rotting or cracks within the foundations.
The structural work then begins, this can be a really exciting time as you start to see your vision coming to life. Any amendments to the structure of the building you’ve requested will start to be completed. Once structural work has been carried out the full work force comes together to start with the first fix- installing electrics, plumbing, heating and the partition frames, sub-floors, and staircases can be fitted. The plastering is then applied and left to fully dry before the second fix begins. The second fix is another really exciting step for customers as we start to install the kitchen and bathrooms, sockets, switches, lighting and flooring is laid down.
Finally, the most exciting part of all - the decorating! This is when the space starts to truly feel like your own and the time, effort and money invested starts to pay off. After we’re finished with the decorating and happy all is to a high standard we start the snagging process and ensure any minor issues that have arisen are rectified. We tidy away our tools, clean the property - leaving it feeling completely yours and brand new - this can be a really surreal moment for a lot of customers. The home you’ve dreamed about, finally yours.
