Budget, Construction Quality & Project Management Benefits

When tackling any home remodeling project, whether it is a kitchen remodel, a bathroom remodel or a much larger whole home remodel it is important to know who is going to complete the work. In our blog, What are my Home Remodeling Options? we discuss the 3 most common construction options: Do-it-yourself, general contractors and the increasingly popular design/build approach. Today we are going to focus on the design/build approach to remodeling.

Why Choose a Design / Build Remodeling Firm?

One of the greatest reasons for hiring a design/build remodeling company is that they provide homeowners with a full-service remodeling experience. When our clients hire Sea Pointe Design & Remodel, they are not just hiring a general contractor, but a united team of award winning design consultants, expert project managers, trusted construction crew, experienced architects and skilled engineers. Under one roof, a comprehensive team of industry experts progress smoothly through each project with clear communication. Sea Pointe Design & Remodel proudly guides clients through the remodeling process with one point of accountability, ultimately alleviating stress and confusion.

From concept through construction, the Sea Pointe Design & Remodel team offers a full service remodeling experience.

Benefits of Design/Build Remodeling to My Remodeling Budget

Kicking off the remodeling journey with a complementary in-home first appointment, clients work with a Sea Pointe Design & Remodel design consultant to explore what’s possible within your budget. After establishing a budget and clear scope of work, clients then work with their design consultant to choose materials and make informed decisions, which keeps the project within budget. With all design materials chosen upfront, clients are presented with a complete contract, totaling the cost of their remodeling project. Including all design and construction details in the contract not only eliminates surprise change orders and added costs, but also keeps the construction of your project running smoothly.

“Complete Package” Remodeling

Design / Build Remodeling BenefitsWe design every remodel with value engineering in mind. When incorporating the design/build construction concept, quality, cost and time are determined concurrently. Sea Pointe Design & Remodel’s expertise in this format ensures that our client can save money, save time, and have the peace of mind that their residential remodel will meet their specific functionality and aesthetic needs.

Together, a team of design consultants, project managers, structural engineers, architects, material purchasers and logistics coordinators work behind the scenes to strategically plan and construct your project. Leaving the heavy lifting to a team of experts alleviates stress and confusion and allows the client to focus on the exciting aspects of their remodeling project.

Planning a Home Remodel?

Pros and Cons of the 3 Most Common Options

When exploring your kitchen, bathroom or whole home remodeling options, you’ll find yourself with three different options for managing and completing your project. Which one you choose will depend on both your budget and how qualified you feel with tackling the myriad aspects of most remodeling jobs.

Do-It-Yourself Remodeling

Remodeling Options

Your first option (and possibly the most daunting) is do-it-yourself or DIY. Undoubtedly the most cost-effective option; however successful DIY home remodeling requires an extensive design background and comprehensive knowledge of construction. If you aren’t comfortable with handling all the design and construction technicalities and codes, you might want to consider hiring some outside help. It is also important to note that if you are required to re-do a particular portion of the job because it wasn’t done properly or up to code, any cost savings you may have had could be lost.

Remodeling with a General Contractor

If a do-it-yourself remodeling project isn’t a realistic option, you may choose to work with a general contractor. While working with a general contractor provides homeowners with a resource for the design and construction of a project, homeowners are expected to communicate between the architect, structural engineer, interior designer, material manufacturers and the general contractor. Clearly, working with a general contractor still requires you take a hands-on approach to your remodel.

Working with a Design / Build Remodeling Firm

Home Remodeling OptionsLastly, the option of working with a design/build remodeling firm like Sea Pointe Design & Remodel offers homeowners a full-service remodeling experience. The design/build remodeling approach offers homeowners comprehensive project management with one point of accountability. Together, a team of design consultants, project managers, structural engineers, architects, material purchasers and logistics coordinators work behind the scenes to strategically plan and construct your project. Leaving the heavy lifting to a team of experts alleviates stress and confusion while allowing the client to focus on the exciting aspects of their remodeling project.

The Perfect Kitchen Remodel – Your Guide To Design

The Perfect Kitchen Remodel – Your Guide To Design

Perfect Kitchen RemodelWhen designing your kitchen, it’s important to consider who will be using the space and for what purposes. Many of our clients want to make their new kitchens kid friendly. For clients with younger children who will be active users of the kitchen we often recommend the following:

  • Most of the storage below counter height
  • Pull out drawers inside of base cabinets
  • Undercounter refrigerators and beverage centers
  • Undercounter microwave
  • Accessible pantries
  • Islands that double as places for homework or a separate island that is out of the way from cooking
  • Racks for dishes
  • Breakfast areas
  • Outlet charging stations in base cabinet drawers
  • Space to store small appliances under countertops such as toasters, blenders and other portable appliances
  • Built-in cutting boards to help prevent the possibility of damaging countertops
  • Touch open cabinets and drawers
  • Soft close drawers and cabinets
  • Seating with washable fabrics
  • Extra wide countertops because we know kids will often climb on the countertop
  • Countertops without overhangs because overhangs make it difficult for smaller children to reach the surface
  • Designated play areas in or off the kitchen (space permitting)
  • A separate dining area and table just for kids
  • Built-in shelves to store games, art supplies, books and other kid-centric items
  • Separate dishes, cutlery and cookware just for kids

Many of the recommendations we make with children in mind will work equally as well for adults. Plus, improving your kitchen provides the highest return on investment when you sell your home compared to other upgrades, according to a 2017 National Association of Realtors survey. Almost 50 percent of survey respondents said the primary reason for renovating their kitchen was improved functionality. Nine in 10 survey respondents said that their kitchen renovation made them happier in their home. That’s priceless.

Open Shelving

Kitchen decorative accents

When designing a kitchen, open shelving provides numerous options. It’s functional, providing storage and organization to a kitchen. It contributes to the look and feel of the room, allowing our clients to express their personality by showcasing works of art, pottery, collectables, cookware, chinaware, glasses, plants, flowers, herbs and objects d’art.

Living Walls

Living walls create an art piece from sustainable vertical gardens indoors and outside as well. In relation to kitchen design, you can install living walls that do not require watering, natural light, fertilizer or pruning. In addition to being exceptionally cool and visually stunning, vertical gardens help absorb sound, preventing conversations and acoustics from the kitchen from traveling to other rooms in the home.

Innovative Lighting

kitchen lighting guide

Lighting sets the mood for any space and it certainly has come a long way in the kitchen. One of the hottest kitchen trends is integrated LED lighting in, above and below cabinets and drawers. Perched above cabinets, as well as hidden inside and under them, integrated kitchen lighting adds atmosphere, functionality and style to a kitchen. They’re a brilliant way to complete the look of your kitchen and get a better look at what you’re making for dinner.

Under cabinet lighting makes tasks easier and safer by delivering directed light to a specific area. Under cabinet lighting can provide task lighting for countertop food preparation and accent lighting to highlight countertops and backsplashes. Under cabinet lighting also helps to eliminate shadows, making it easier to prepare meals. Additionally, under cabinet lighting helps to create unique looks by adding another layer of light and it’s extremely affordable.

Integrated cabinet lighting can showpiece dinnerware, collectables and objects d’art. Integrated cabinet and drawer lighting also makes organizing and finding what you are looking for much easier, not to mention the wow factor that is achieved every time you open a drawer or door and the interior of the space is illuminated.
