DIY or hire pros?

Have you ever spent hours agonizing over paint swatches? Now imagine that in addition to paint colors you need to make a decision about. Now add decision making for the flooring, cabinets, countertops, hardware, and fixtures. Is your head spinning? Are you thinking of tackling the project yourself or are you considering hiring the pros?

The remodeling process can be overwhelming and mentally exhausting. When you get help from an interior designer you get a room that reflects your tastes and also looks stylish for years to come. They can also offer advice about which elements can be revamped and which ones should be replaced.

What do you do if you paint yourself in a corner? While you may have experience with certain aspects of the job, such as painting, what are you going to do when you need help with installations, plumbing or electricity? Maybe you have a friend-of-a-friend’s cousin you can call, but are they licensed, organized and efficient? Time is of the essence as every day that room is under construction is a major inconvenience. The sooner the job gets done the better, which is why kitchen & bath CRATE guarantees your project will be completed within seven to 10 business days.

Have you ever started a remodeling project and didn’t realize you were in over your head until you were past the point of no return? Remodeling requires numerous specialized skills. Unless you have a background in contracting, laying title or installing cabinets can be much more involved than you may imagine. Another disadvantage of going the do-it-yourself route is that what you save in money you will lose in time. Trying to find the time between work and the rest of your long list of responsibilities can drag out the completion time.

In terms of materials, working with a professional has its advantages. They know what manufacturers produce quality products and can often get them at discounted, wholesale prices. Another factor to take into consideration is if whether or not you have the right tools for the job. Even a professional would struggle without the proper tools. For someone doing it for the first time, it can make the job feel virtually impossible.

At the end of the day, you want a room that you will enjoy year after year. Tackling the remodel of an entire room can be a daunting task. When you hire a professional, your dream can become a reality without all of the hassles.
