"First of all check Tim Armitage's license, which we did after the fact There is some question as to his current status. We had a complete upgrade done to the exterior of our house. We were pleased with the overall outcome until we went to fill the pool and found out that during the demolition of the old concrete, the fill pipe for the pool had gotten damaged by the skip loaders they were using. This pipe was right below the surface and should of been checked before they poured the new concrete, especially since they had broken another pipe in the same area and at the same depth. Needless to say we did not find out about it until after all the new concrete had been poured, when 10 weeks after the completion of the job, a crack appeared and water started seeping out. (we do have photos of the skip loader right over where this pipe is located), and this pipe had never leaked before the start of construction. When we approached Tim, the general contractor, he was unapologetic and tried to blame it on everything other then his own lack of oversight. This brings me to the communication aspect of this project. Most of Tim's communication is done by text and photos. We basically only saw him when he wanted a check. There were many times when we felt that we were the project managers for the job, like the time that our streets water was being turned off, which I had informed Tim of exact time and date prior, and who shows up to work, but one of the concrete guys, and don't they need water? Or the time when the roofer showed up and they had not completed the painting in that area. Thankfully we were home at the time, otherwise there would of been a situation. We never even got the courtesy of a final walk around to make sure everything was OK. All through the job Tim got texts and photos from his subcontractors upon completion of their portion of the project and Tim relied on these sources without an on sight look see. On this note, at the completion of the project we got a text asking if everything was good, and that was the extent of the walk through."

"We are very pleased with our whole house remodel performed by our contractor, Rick Simmons of Coastline Construction. We received four bids from various contractors which were all competitive. We chose Rick for various reasons including that he was easy to communicate with and that he uses his own very skilled employees, no subcontractors. We completely remodeled the kitchen, the main and secondary bathroom, laundry room and installed new flooring throughout that required grinding and leveling the concrete slab. Every wall and ceiling was retextured and painted. It was a HUGE job. Rick is a hands-on contractor who stopped by the house 3-4 times a week (sometimes everyday!). Rick kept us up to date on scheduling and every addition we made to the scope of work was clearly documented in change orders that we discussed with him. We had a good idea of what we wanted design-wise and the end result reflects that vision."

Remodel Design questions, answered by experts

Redfin reported in 2021 that homes with fireplaces were listed on the market for around 13% more than the national median sale price, but this doesn’t mean that they actually sold for that much. While homebuyer demand reigns supreme, the actual ROI on a fireplace depends on various factors, including size, type, and material.

The renovation projects with the highest return on investment (ROI) in mobile homes include upgrading HVAC and appliances to be more energy-efficient. Installing EnergyStar-rated components if they're not already present in the home is particularly valuable. Additionally, installing smart-home features is an inexpensive way to add home value without spending a fortune on remodeling. Painting and skirting updates are also excellent for curb appeal and perceived value.

While the terms renovation and remodel are sometimes used interchangeably, there are significant differences. A renovation updates or restores features in a home without making significant structural changes, leaving existing layouts intact. Conversely, a remodel often involves structural changes that dramatically alter layouts, like removing walls to create an open kitchen.

Adding a mudroom is one of the most budget-friendly home additions compared to other projects, costing between $8,000 and $16,000 on average. Not only is the room often quite small, but it also requires minimal fixtures or wiring to make the room practical. The most costly features include a weatherproof floor and an exterior door.

Adding a bedroom or second bathroom has the biggest effect on the value of the house. The difference in market value between a 2-bedroom and a 3-bedroom house is massive as many families looking to upsize will want the extra room. While there is an upper limit where adding bedrooms doesn’t make sense when it comes to increasing value—a 9-bedroom home, for example—most homes see the most increase from these two types of rooms.
