As the days grow longer and hotter for us Floridians, many homeowners are considering sprucing up their living spaces. Whether it's a kitchen renovation, bathroom makeover, or adding an outdoor kitchen, summer is a prime season for home remodeling projects. While there is never be a wrong time to remodel, here are a few reasons why you might want to consider getting started now.
1. Better Scheduling
The most popular season for remodeling projects is spring, which means that many skilled contractors have their schedules filled up far in advance. If you are flexible and don’t have a strict timeline for your kitchen renovation, waiting until the summer can get you the same great finished product but with less competition for scheduling.
Additionally, there are not many federal holidays in the summer, especially compared to the fall and winter. Other than Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, contractors can schedule work on your home almost any day that works for you. If you want your project to continue at a steady pace instead of stopping and starting around the holidays, summer is a perfect time to schedule your kitchen remodel.
2. Outdoor Projects Thrive
From building a new patio to adding an outdoor kitchen, summer is the perfect time to tackle outdoor projects. Plus, for Floridians, completing outdoor renovations in the summer ensures that your newly enhanced space will be ready to enjoy during the cooler months.
3. Less Disruption
If your renovation involves indoor spaces, summer provides an excellent opportunity to seamlessly transition between indoor and outdoor living. With longer daylight hours, homeowners can take advantage of their outdoor spaces while the work is being done so the disruption caused by remodeling work is minimized.
4. Vacation Flexibility
Many families choose to take vacations during the summer months when school is out and the weather is favorable. Planning your remodel for the summer allows you to schedule the work while you're away, minimizing disruptions to your daily routine. You can return from your vacation to find your home transformed, ready to be enjoyed without the inconvenience of construction noise or dust.
5. Preparing for the Holidays
Depending on the scope of your project, undertaking home remodeling projects earlier in the year makes it more likely that your home could be ready to shine during the holiday season. Whether you're hosting festive gatherings or welcoming guests from out of town, having completed renovations in advance allows you to showcase your home at its best. From updated kitchens for holiday cooking to refreshed guest bathrooms, summer remodeling sets the stage for memorable celebrations.
