How to Incorporate Windows In a Bakersfield Remodel Project
You’ve decide–no more waiting. You’re ready to dive into that home remodel you’ve been thinking of for months. But before you begin with any DIY work or invite your favorite Bakersfield remodeler in, you need to make sure you’re planning out everything effectively–especially when it comes to how you’ll integrate windows and window treatments such as shutters into the remodel.
We’ve gathered some tips on what you need to do before, during, and after your home project to make it look incredible for years.
Remember How Important Windows Are to a Remodel
The majority of remodelers will agree that windows are one of the most important pieces of architectural home design. Windows are mainly responsible for bringing in lighting, which can drastically change the look of a room despite any other design choice you make. So before you get too far into your remodel, think about different things you’d want to see in your windows. Would you prefer more light coming in? Do you want better control over that natural light? Could you use more effective privacy, noise control, etc.?
Thinking about any of those questions can make a big impact on how your remodel goes, so give those questions their due diligence.
Get Your Window Treatment Provider Involved Early On
If new window treatments are going to be part of your remodel, try to get your window treatment installer in contact with your general contractor early in the process. With so many moving parts in a home improvement project, there are several benefits in getting all your contractors talking:
-
Each contractor can get a working timeline in place, making the project go quicker and more smoothly.
-
Your window treatment installers can get in, take measurements, and offer ideas upfront, before any other work happens.
-
Fewer opportunities for mistakes being made in a remodel that leaves you with anything other than the dream house you want.
-
A more defined direction for the style of your home - giving you a better looking final product.
You should also try to choose a window treatment dealer that has worked with home builders before. Sunburst Shutters Bakersfield has working relationships with several Bakersfield home builders and designers, so we know how to best work with those professionals.
Choosing a window treatment provider that frequently works with home remodelers can give you a better idea of what your finished space will look like, as well as cut down on how long you have to wait before you can enjoy your reimagined home, in addition to a spectacular looking finished product.
