How to Prepare for a Home Renovation

Planning a home renovation is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. Working with a design/build company like Houseworks Collective can simplify the process, but preparing ahead ensures a smoother, more successful project. Here’s what you should do before reaching out.

1. Define Your Renovation Goals

Decide what you want to achieve, more space, a modern kitchen, updated bathrooms, or improved flow. Clear goals help Houseworks Collective create solutions tailored to your lifestyle.

2. Set a Realistic Budget

Know your budget range, including a contingency fund for surprises. This helps us recommend the best materials and designs without compromising your vision.

3. Gather Inspiration

Collect photos, magazine clippings, or Pinterest boards of styles and features you love. Inspiration guides our team to understand your preferences and craft a design you’ll love.

4. Assess Your Home and Needs

Identify what works in your home and what doesn’t. Take note of structural features, space limitations, or areas that need improvement. This helps us plan efficiently.

5. Consider Your Timeline

Think about your ideal project start and completion dates. Sharing your timeline helps us coordinate materials, contractors, and schedules.

6. Be Ready to Collaborate

Design/build is a partnership. While your vision matters, being open to expert guidance ensures your renovation is both functional and beautiful.

At Houseworks Collective, we turn home renovation dreams into reality. By preparing thoughtfully before your consultation, you’ll make the process smoother and more rewarding.
