According to many homeowners, renovating in winter would be far too complicated given the bad weather and negative temperatures. And there is some truth in that. However, many home renovations can be started during any season; this is especially true for interior work. In this article, we will share some of the reasons you should consider doing some interior renovations this winter in New Haven, CT.
After having followed a series of renovation projects throughout the summer, many contractors find themselves with an empty calendar as winter kicks in. A contractor who is not overwhelmed by other projects will focus on your renovation project better. Moreover, you will quickly see that it is much easier to find a qualified workforce able to work according to your availability. A renovation project launched in winter will start quickly and end just as quickly. The contractor will be able to provide you with more workers, which will inevitably accelerate the work’s progress. This is obviously not the case in summer when the contractor must divide his workers between several sites, giving longer deadlines. Neat work, a more attentive contractor, and the possibility of requesting additional modifications after the site’s start are other advantages of launching a renovation project in winter.
Have you ever compared quotes for a winter and summer renovation project? You will quickly see that there is a real price difference for the same type of work. Since projects are scarce in winter, contractors generally lower their fees to net in more projects. These reduced prices apply to both labor and construction products. During this season, the winter period is slow; the entire construction sector is operating at a subsidized rate. As you can see, winter is more nor less the best time to shop for most construction products and materials.
Once again, the winter period being slow, municipal services will not be overwhelmed and will be able to study your file faster. It takes a few weeks to obtain a building permit in the summer; it will only take a few days if you apply in winter. No risk of starting work later because of a processing delay. Renovating your home during the winter is also a matter of peace of mind, with fewer unforeseen events and last-minute problems.
Depending on your renovation project’s size and complexity, it may take several weeks or even months. During this period, you must be available (which will prevent you from going on vacation, for example). However, summer only lasts three months, and it would be a shame to waste the sunny days living in a house under construction. Plus, a renovation project is anything but relaxing. So you will lose precious days of rest and relaxation with your family.
Many prefer summer renovations to avoid dust accumulation, which is more difficult to evacuate during the winter. However, whether the work is done in winter or summer, contractors have special equipment to collect dust produced during the work and prevent it from spreading.
