How To

Do you want to renovate your interior or exterior first.

Which should I choose first?

There are many factors that you should consider when choosing the right project. Most people consider whether the building is new or old. It is important to assess the condition of the roof and windows as well as the doors, flooring, and electrical system. When the building is new, there are many things to consider such as its location, size, number, style, and so forth.

The roof should be the first thing you look at if the building's age is a concern. If your roof seems like it is about to fall apart, then you should get on with the renovation. You can proceed to the next step if the roof is in good condition. Next, look at the windows. The windows should be inspected for damage or dirt before you do anything else. You can then go through your doors and clean them. You can now begin to install the flooring if everything looks fine. You should ensure that the flooring does not crack or become unstable no matter how many times you walk on them. Now you can start to add the walls. Take a look at the walls to see if any cracks or damage are present. If the wall is fine, then you should proceed to the next step. Finally, once the walls are inspected, you can work on the ceiling. It is important to inspect the ceiling and ensure it is strong enough for any weight you may place on it. If everything checks out, then you can move forward with your renovation.

If the building was built recently, then you would probably want to start with the exterior. The exterior of the home should be examined first. Is it in good condition? Are there cracks or holes? Does it look good overall? If the exterior looks bad, it's time to make improvements. It is not a good idea to make your home look unattractive. Next, examine the foundation. You should repair any foundation that appears weak. Also, check the driveway. It should be smooth and flat. If it's not, it should be fixed. Also check the sidewalk when you are checking the driveway. If the sidewalk is uneven, it should be replaced.

Once these areas are checked, you should move on to the inside of the house. Begin by inspecting the kitchen. Is it well maintained and clean? It should be cleaned up if it's messy. Next, make sure to inspect the appliances. You want them to be in good order and working correctly. If they are not in good condition, you should either purchase new cabinets or fix them. The cabinets should be inspected after that. If they are stained or scratched, then you should probably paint them. If they are in great condition, then you can go to the bathroom. Here, check the toilet. If it leaks then it's time to replace it. It's best to wash it if it's only dirty. Next, inspect all fixtures. You should make sure they are clean. If they are filthy, clean them immediately. Finally, make sure to inspect the countertops. If the countertops are cracked or chipped, you might want to repaint them. If they are smooth and shiny you can use a sealant.

Final step: Check your furniture. Check that nothing is damaged or missing. You should find what is missing if it is not there. You should fix anything broken. Once everything is in order, you can then move on to the next step.
