Last week on KC Live, President and CEO Mike Dodd shared how to know the true costs of home remodeling projects and how to know if you were using reputable resources to discover the costs. In case you missed it, watch it here. >

 

Key insights from Mike:

• Online calculators and other online resources can be great predictors of the true cost of home remodeling, if you find the right ones.
• Hanley Wood’s annual Cost vs. Value Report is always a great resource to use.
• Vetting contractors and references and doing the research before you choose a contractor is vital.
• Know what questions to ask when you are considering investing thousands of dollars in your home.
• It’s worth the patience and time taken to do the research rather than jumping into a project blindfolded.
• You really do get what you pay for when it comes to home remodeling, in both good and bad ways.

Questions to ask your candidates for Home Remodeling:

• How many years has the company been in business?
• Are they members of trade associations?
• Do they carry certifications?
• Do they have the ability to secure permits on the building?
