How To
Do you renovate interior or exterior first?
Which one should I first do?
When choosing which project to begin with, there are many things to take into consideration. The most important factor to consider is whether the building has been around for a while. If the building is old, then there are many things to take into consideration such as the condition of the roof, windows, doors, flooring, electrical system, etc. When the building is new, there are many things to consider such as its location, size, number, style, and so forth.
If your building is very old, you should first look at its roof. You should start the renovation if you feel the roof is at risk of falling apart. If the roof is fine, then you can move onto the next step. Next, look at the windows. The windows should be inspected for damage or dirt before you do anything else. Next, check the doors for debris and clean them up. Once everything is clean, you can then begin to put the floors together. It is important that your flooring is strong and stable so that it will not give way no matter what you do. The next step is to check the walls. Examine the walls carefully to determine if there are any cracks or other damage. If the wall is fine, then you should proceed to the next step. Once the walls have been checked, you can begin to work on the ceiling. Check the ceiling and make sure that it is strong enough to hold up whatever weight you decide to put on it. Then you can start your renovations if all goes well.
You would want to begin with the exterior if the building was recently built. First, examine the outside of the house. Is it clean? Is there any cracks? Does the exterior look great? If your exterior isn't looking great, you should make some changes. You don’t want to make your home look bad. Next, examine the foundation. The foundation should be inspected for weakness and repaired. You should also inspect the driveway. You want it to be smooth and flat. If it's not, then you should fix it. When checking the driveway, also check the sidewalk. If the sidewalk is uneven, it should be replaced.
Once you've checked all these areas, it is time to move on the inside. Start by looking at the kitchen. Is it clean and well-maintained? If it is dirty or messy, you need to clean it up. Next, you should inspect the appliances. These appliances should be in top shape and functioning properly. If they aren’t in great shape, then either you buy new ones or replace them. Next, inspect the cabinets. If the cabinets are stained, or have been scratched, you can probably paint them. If they're in good condition, you can move on to the bathrooms. The toilet should be inspected here. If the toilet is leaking, you will need to replace it. It's best to wash it if it's only dirty. Next, check out all the fixtures. Check that the fixtures are clean. If they are filthy, clean them immediately. Finally, make sure to inspect the countertops. If they are chipped or cracked, then you should probably repaint them. If they are smooth and shiny, then you should probably use some kind of sealant.
Check the furniture last. Verify that the furniture is not damaged or missing. If something is missing, then you should probably find it. You should repair anything that is damaged. Once you have checked everything, you can return outside to complete the job.
