How To
Do you prefer renovating exterior or interior?
Which one should I first do?
There are many aspects to consider when choosing which project should be started. The most important thing to consider when deciding which project to start is whether the structure is old or new. The condition of the roof, windows and doors, flooring, wiring, and other aspects are all important. If the building is new, then there are many different aspects to think about such as the location, size, number of rooms, style, etc.
If your building is very old, you should first look at its roof. If it looks like the roof could collapse any minute now, you may want to start on the renovation. If the roof is fine, then you can move onto the next step. Next, look at the windows. Next, inspect the windows and make sure they are clean. After this, go through the doorways and make sure that they are clean and free from debris. Once everything is clean, you can then begin to put the floors together. You should ensure that the flooring does not crack or become unstable no matter how many times you walk on them. After you have completed these steps, you can move on the walls. Take a look at the walls to see if any cracks or damage are present. If the wall is fine, then you should proceed to the next step. The ceiling can be finished after the walls have been examined. Check the ceiling and make sure that it is strong enough to hold up whatever weight you decide to put on it. You can then move on with your renovation if everything looks good.
If the building was built recently, then you would probably want to start with the exterior. The exterior of the home should be examined first. Is it in good condition? Are there cracks anywhere? Does it look good overall? If your exterior isn't looking great, you should make some changes. Your home shouldn't look shabby. Next, examine the foundation. The foundation should be inspected for weakness and repaired. Also, be sure to check your driveway. You want it to be smooth and flat. If it's not, it should be fixed. When checking the driveway, also check the sidewalk. You should replace the sidewalk if it's uneven.
These areas should be checked before you move on to the inside. Begin by inspecting the kitchen. Is it well maintained and clean? You should clean up any mess. Next, make sure to inspect the appliances. These appliances should be in top shape and functioning properly. If they are not in good condition, you should either purchase new cabinets or fix them. Next, inspect the cabinets. You can paint them if the cabinets are stained or damaged. You can then move on to the bathroom if they are in good condition. In here, you should check the toilet. If it leaks, it is time to get a new one. If it's just dirty, then you should probably wash it. Next, make sure you inspect all the fixtures. Make sure that they are clean. They should be cleaned if they are dirty. Finally, you should inspect the countertops. Repainting countertops is advisable if they have cracked or are chipped. Use a sealant if they're shiny and smooth.
Last, check the furniture. You should make sure nothing is broken or missing. If something is missing, then you should probably find it. If it is damaged, you should probably fix it. Once everything is in order, you can then move on to the next step.
