What You can Do to Prepare

Starting a remodeling project can feel overwhelming, so we’ve broken down a few of the preliminary steps you can take to ensure the process goes smoothly. As a family-owned business, we’re committed to helping you through all steps of a job — just one of the reasons why people love us. Here are some tips to help you get started!

• Know Your Budget: It’s important that you have a figure in mind when you meet with a prospective contractor. This will keep you from facing any unwanted surprises, but it will also give the contractor much needed information. Be transparent about how much you’re willing to spend, and we’ll work with you to give you the best services no matter your budget.

• Have Some Design Ideas Ready: You want a contractor with an eye for design, but it’s also important that you have an idea for what you’d like before you reach out to your contractor. Take the time to think about what you’d like your remodel to look like when it’s done, and talk to us about that plan. A quick Google search or a look at some design magazines can give you tons of ideas.

• Determine a Schedule: You have a life to live, and you don’t want the construction required for your remodel to interrupt that. Before you start a job, make sure you and your contractor have discussed the best schedule for you. At Marcotte, we pride ourselves on minimizing disturbance and working around your schedule — even if that means overnight or off-hours work.

• Post-Construction Clean-Up: Don’t let your contractor leave without cleaning up and dusting every corner. Ask for a commitment from your contractor that they’ll finish all aspects of the job from the get-go. After all, not all contractors are as trustworthy as Marcotte General Contracting.
