How do I plan for my remodel?

Items to consider:

1. Determine what you really want in advance. What are your basic priorities and the goals for what you want your remodel to achieve? Write these items down on paper for future reference.
2. Cut pictures from magazines and articles on remodeling. Make any notes or questions you have and about the various products and designs that you are potentially interested in.
3. Determine a budget. Your budget will ultimately decide what you can do and how you will go about doing it. How much do you want to spend? Are you familiar with current remodeling costs and the value of home improvements? Check out www.remodelingmagazine.com and look at the cost vs. value report.
4. Consider how you will finance the project. Determine if you will pay cash, home improvement loan, home equity line of credit, re-finance, or take out a second mortgage.
5. Call Vision Remodeling, Inc. to set up an appointment at 763-425-6003.

Do you charge for an estimate?

The initial consultation is free. We do charge for our designs. Typical design fees range from $500 to $2,500. We do complete proposals after the design is agreed upon. We prefer to work with our clients through a design/ build process that allows us to deliver the best project to our clients.

Who will be running my project?

Each project is assigned a Remodeling Advisor and a Project Manager. The Remodeling Advisor is responsible overall for the project and meets with the homeowner once a week during the construction process; he is also responsible for customer satisfaction and financial management of the project. The Project Manager is responsible for handling all suppliers, subcontractors, customer satisfaction and completing the project according to the schedule and plan. At Vision Remodeling, there is always an owner involved with your project. An owner will always be able to answer any questions on your project.

Do you use sub-contractors?

Yes- We believe that you will get a project with the highest level of quality and craftsmanship by using the best companies in each field of your project. To handle specific mechanicals such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing, and other skilled trades such as drywall, roofing, siding, cabinetry, we do rely on reputable subcontractors to help complete our projects. All of our subcontractors must meet our guidelines and expectations, and must sign an agreement with VRI before doing any work.
