Benefits Of Remodeling Your Home During Cold Weather
A lot of people think when late Fall or Winter comes around means the end of home remodels.
This is false.
Spring and Summer is what most people see as the most opportune time for a remodel.
On the contrary, cold weather months of November and December can actually be the most perfect time for you to execute your renovation projects.
If you do not believe me, here are 3 reasons why cold weather can be the best time to start your home remodel.
Contractor availability
During Spring and Summer contractors are completely booked. As those are the months most people look to complete their home remodel projects.
Think about the cold weather months of November and December, the demand for business is just not as popular during this time.
Thus providing contractors more time and focus for completing your project.
During the months of March through September is the normal busiest time for any remodeling contractor, and also the most expensive time for a remodel.
November to December can save you money on remodels along with a more focused one-on-one attentive contractor.
Better Deal
The old supply and demand aspect, contractors are keen to understanding that since most homeowners would like to remodel during March to September, that there is a premium.
Despite of standard rates applying to all services, it is rare that a homeowner who is looking to remodel during the Spring or Summer will receive a better deal or special rates.
When talking about the year’s late months such as November and/or December, the opportunities to work with contractors at a reduced rate due to the fact there is less jobs on the calendar is why you can receive a better deal.
Going up the supply chain, the suppliers of equipment and material also understand the cycle of home remodels.
Any brand new product line or product is usually release during the Spring, all of this is pushed through the summer then during the colder months are often discounted because of lesser work that is done at that time.
November and December home remodels can get you a better deal!
Faster Permit Approval
When remodeling a home there are multiple things to consider. You don’t only want to figure out the correct contractor, you have also got to get the correct permits.
Local governments usually are slow to approve remodeling permits during the busier season, but when the end of the year comes around when less permits are filed, approvals could come quicker.
During a major home remodel you’d be able to schedule an inspector to come visit during the later months of the year.
Factoring the fast track on permits, these processes will help you move your home remodel to a faster completion date.
