What Happens During a Remodeling Consultation?

Scheduling an initial consultation with a remodeler is the first step in your project. Consultations are your chance to clarify your vision of the project, receive feedback on the viability of your plans, and get answers to your questions.

Knowing what to expect in your first consultation allows you prepare properly so you can make the most of the meeting. In today’s post, JLR Home Renovation, the premier remodeling contractor in the region, breaks it down for you.

Phone Consultation

The first step is a phone consultation. During this conversation, our goal is to understand your vision and the scope of your project better. It would be great if you could provide general information about the nature of the project as well as some examples of other projects that inspired you. We’ll also ask for details about your budget, so we can suggest realistic options.

In-Home Consultation

Once we have an idea of what you want, we’ll request to visit your home so we can inspect the area to be remodeled. We’ll ask what changes you want to see and give our input based on our assessment of the space. Our inspection will cover both the aesthetic and structural areas of your home, so we can provide you with the most accurate bid possible, limiting the number of surprise expenses during the project. For instance, if you’re planning to move a wall during bathroom remodeling, we’ll have to inspect your basement to determine how the structural change will affect the rest of your home.

This meeting will focus largely on your needs and wants and an overview of site analysis, so that we can present you with realistic options. Additionally, upon request, we can bring samples of our work to give you an idea of how your finished project will actually look.
