Essential Things to Do After a Remodel

When your contractor finishes your remodeling project, remember that there are still a few things that you need to accomplish before you can enjoy your newly renovated home. Make sure you don’t skip these steps to avoid potential problems in the future.

Do a Final Walk-Through With Your Contractor

Whether your project involves kitchen renovation or bathroom remodeling, your contractor should schedule a final walk-through with you. This will give them the chance to discuss the completed project and allow you to personally check the quality of their work. As you go through each room that has been renovated, your remodeler will have to identify anything that has yet to be completed or is not 100% perfect. Make sure to write everything down so that you can easily refer to them later on. This will also help you keep your contractor accountable for any unfinished or unsatisfactory work.

Perform a Deep Clean

Most remodeling companies can do a post-renovation cleanup. But if you have opted out of this service in order to save on costs, make sure to prepare all the cleaning tools that you’ll need for a deep clean. Any furniture or personal items should not be moved back in until you are done cleaning the room.

Register Your Product Warranties

If you purchased new products or appliances for your kitchen remodeling project, make sure to fill out their warranty cards and send them in if necessary. You can also check if there is an option to do this online. Registering new product warranties as soon as the remodel is completed will save you from headaches later on when you need the warranty.

Update Your Insurance

Don’t forget to call your insurance company too. Notify them about your remodel and the changes that you’ve done to your home since you will likely need to adjust the limits of your policy as well. In some cases, depending on the kind of remodel, a city assessor may need to appraise your newly renovated home.
