A Lay Man's Guide To Renovating Building

Renovation: Creative Indulgence

Whether it is your home or office, renovating it is not only challenging but is also a task that will tickle your creativity and architectural ability. Many of you would want to live not only in a comfortable environment but also in a building that have all the modern day facilities of a comfortable, homely yet highly functional house. As many of us are now living in concrete buildings instead of cottage type houses where perhaps our grandparents had once lived, renovating building has become all the more challenging.

Get Your Basics Right

However, you need not panic if you have a building to renovate. Just get your basics right and other things will fall in place. Remember if you are planning to renovate and overhaul your building, get a pen and paper and start jotting down the following important points that are very important in renovating a building:

Design and Planning:

Before you venture into buying materials and hiring men for executing your plan of renovating building it is imperative to have a final sketch of architectural plans and design.

1. Based on your plan you must work out your budget after taking help from an architect.
2. It is always advisable to hire a professional to renovate your building on areas where you do not have any professional experience.
3. Once you have worked out the above two hire a contractor who can execute your renovation plan.
4. Make sure that you do not get bogged down by any official interference, so it is worth taking all the necessary permissions if required.

By now we presume that you have a clear intention of which parts of the building you want to renovate or you are planning to renovate the entire building. Is it the Roof, Foundation, Siding or Windows that you want to renovate or is it the entire building?

Check For Weak Links

For any major renovation work you have to check how strong is the foundation of the building so that it withstand any changes you want to make. Make sure you follow the suggestions below if you want your renovation to be hassle free:

1. Strengthen areas such as weakened walls, joists and carrying beams.

2. Repair windows which are seriously damaged so that it do not hinder remodelling work.

3. If there is water inflitration through the siding repair it immediately.

After you are done with the elementary, concentrate on structural carpentry and hire a professional carpenter either to move or construct new walls, enlarging windows openings or any other works that need a carpentry touch.

Flooring is another area which you must not forget that has to be included in your renovation plan. If you are not able to decide it is always better to seek expert opinion whether the flooring needs to be touched or not.
