Looking for the ideal contractor to renovate that outdated room in your home?
Home Improvement projects are always on the mind of a homeowner. Whether it's that old horribly laid out kitchen or that dingy disgusting bathroom, home improvements are everywhere.
With so many home improvement contractors in your area, how do you decide on which one is going to be the best option for your project?
When you are excited to start a home improvement project, how do you know what to look for in design ideas, quality and workmanship? Here are some basic steps to consider:
​
Design:
The design of the project is critical! How do you as the homeowner communicate with a contractor your design ideas and what if you don't speak in contractor terms?
​
-
Find a contractor that does not dominate the conversation and is patient with you as you layout your ideas.
-
The estimate/quote process can be very challenging as a homeowner. Have a contractor give a specific date when you will receive an estimate and make sure many of the details are listed so you can compare estimates.
-
Make sure your contractor as a design program available (this will ensure that your ideas can be visualized and approved before any construction begins)
Construction:
The construction process of a home improvement project can be the most trying and frustrating aspect of the overall experience. You, as the homeowner, can be ready and prepared for most problems that may arise when you have taken the steps necessary to communicate a plan with your contractor. Here are a few things to consider and discuss with your contractor to keep the project running smoothly.
​
-
Make sure that the contractor you have chosen creates a thorough contract that details a construction schedule, a material list (including brands) and a payment schedule.
-
Most home improvement projects run into a situation that will trigger a change to the construction. Make sure that you have discussed a charge order process with your contractor and always have the change order in writing and approved beforehand to avoid misunderstandings.
-
Communication is the number one aspect of a successful home improvement project. Don't be afraid to inspect the work that is being performed and certainly ask as many questions as you feel needed to answer any concerns.
Now that you know how a home improvement project operates and the questions to ask, let's get your outdated and nonfunctioning space transformed into an exciting new home experience.
About Covenant Custom Design LLC
I'm Bryan
With over 20 years of experience working in the field of home building and home improvement, I created Covenant Custom Design to provide homeowners with a partner in revitalizing their homes to create a more functioning and more personalized experience. With the assistance of digital design programs, CCD can offer customers the latest interior design ideas and tools to create the perfect virtual look before one wall is knocked down or one nail is driven. CCD prides itself on communicating thoroughly and often with customers, through the construction process, to ensure that the project meets all expectations.
I love the experience of watching my customers see their newly remodeled space and the satisfaction of knowing that I provided them with a quality product that they will enjoy with their family for years. I pride my company on the fact that I can provide the majority of the services needed to complete the home improvement. When I incorporate a sub contractor, I ensure that their quality and workmanship meets the standards that I hold for my own company.
If you are a homeowner that has had a bitter experience finding and working with other contractors, let me provide you with a partnership that will leave you with a different outlook on the home improvement process.

"CCD has done many projects for me in the last 10 years. My wife is ecstatic with the work that has been done. The value for the money is right on the mark. CCD is accommodating with adjustments and never overcharges. Never does unnecessary work and educates us as to what needs to be done and has great suggestions. Very detail oriented - my kitchen looks like a piece of art. Honest, responsive and I can not say enough good things about this contractor and I would give them 6+ Stars if I could. I highly recommend CCD."

"It was truly a pleasure to work with Bryan for the entire project of finishing our basement. He is very knowledgeable with wonderful ideas and was very accommodating to what we were looking for. He is so easy to work with and very reasonable in price. His workmanship is fantastic and extremely detailed. Our basement project turned out better than we could have imagined!! We were so very impressed with this work and him in general, that he has done a few other jobs for us with some to come in the future. I would highly recommend Bryan to anyone that is looking for high quality work."

"With Bryan’s advice and design expertise, my new kitchen is everything I wanted plus a few things I didn't know I needed and now realize I can’t manage without! A larger stove makes meal prep easier and a commercial hood vent keeps surfaces clear of grease. An extra deep steel sink with drying rack, cutting board and colander is so convenient and a hidden trash and recycling drawer keeps the dog out of trouble. The invisible under cabinet lighting is beautiful, making the counter and backsplash shine. Bryan’s work is meticulous and every detail is perfect. I’m thrilled with the result!"
