When remodeling your bathroom, you can consider features that maximize the layout, water-saving fixtures, and storage options.

The cost of a bathroom remodel can vary depending on the scope of the project, materials used, and labor involved. A good rule of thumb is to base the total cost on 5–10% of your home's value.

The answer to this question depends mostly on the scope of the project. A simple cosmetic kitchen renovation could be completed in just a few weeks, while a complete gut job could take several months—or even longer.

During the design phase, it’s important to work closely with your kitchen remodeling contractor so that they understand your vision and can develop a realistic construction schedule. Keep in mind that even if everything goes according to plan, there’s always the potential for delays—for example, if weather causes construction delays or material shortages occur.

At AF Contractors, we like to establish clear lines of communication with you from day one. After an in-house consultation, we will ensure that everyone is on the same page regarding a completion date.

Before you start on your kitchen remodeling journey, you first need to decide what you want to change. Do you want to update the appliances, cabinets, or countertops? Knowing your goals for your remodel will help speed up the planning process.

We recommend browsing online design blogs and magazines for kitchen remodeling ideas. You can then share these ideas with your local contractors so they have a clearer concept of your design vision.

Taking the time to design a layout that not only will look great but will be functional is very important in our eyes. I will typically start with two different layouts to allow the customer’s mind to envision something different than they may have had in their mind. 

We work through revisions, combining certain aspects from the design layouts that will lend themselves to the best layout for the customer. Drawings and 3D renderings are done to give the customer the best idea of what their space will look like before any construction is started.
