SJ Architects and Planners

Getting Your place renovated!!Do not commit these mistakes during renovations.

  1. Stop pretending to understand your floor plans when you are not able to visualize it –

First mistake that many clients make is they pretend to understand the floor plan when they are actually not able to imagine the space. Always ask you architect or designer show a sketch or ask for 3d to understand how things will fit.

  • Keep in mind the cost while asking for alterations –

Always ask your architect what difference in total cost will be there for the alterations you want. Many times, a small change like changing the positions of switches can cost you much more than expected. So, keep a check on it.

  • Always set up a timeline –

Sit with your architect and get a list of items that you need to be purchase and decisions that you need to make.

  • Think outside the box –

It means literally you need to think outside the box. Many times, we focus on our needs what we want inside our home or space Think for exterior also. See whether a small touch up for exterior may add up a great value to your space. “Putting a new roof with leaking roof makes no sense”

  • Do not compromise on quality –

Its always said but the point here is always spending a great deal on the objects you use daily like appliances, hardware, faucets. In long-term you will be able to see how much important it was to spend on these.

  • Do not try to be your own doctor –

You might have great knowledge about materials or design or sources. But you can’t have all in you. So, spend a bit and hire an architect so that you have your deadlines clear, material sorted, perfect design and no worries about vendors.

  • Go bit by bit –

Bit by bit means here go one by one on spaces not actually working on all rooms at a time. This will leave you frustrated and unsettled.

So, go step by step and invest wisely.
