Best Deals for Springtime Home Improvements

Can we really consider Janurary and February Springtime? Sure we can! In all reality, this is the BEST time for contracting for your new home improvement projects. Why you ask?

I have three GREAT reasons.

  1. It's the slow season for most home improvement contractors, therefore this is the time when you will get the most bang for your buck! In order to keep the businesses flowing, deeper discounts are given during the slow seasons!
  2. Price increases from material suppliers begin on March 1 of each year and continue throughout the year. Signing a contract now for a home improvement locks in your pricing PRIOR to any price increases the contractor must do to cover for their supplier increases!
  3. Buy now, Pay later. Most contractors will sign contracts in January and February with a small deposit and schedule the work when YOU are ready.

Home Improvements can be intimidating if you don't know where to begin. Begin by finding your contractor. Local contractors like Innovative Home Concepts in Crystal Lake, IL can make the process much more bareable by making you feel at ease with your decisions and because they truely care about what YOU want rather than what THEY need to sell. Below are some tips on what to look for in choosing a contractor.

Tips for choosing a home improvement contractor:

  • Insist that contractors provide written estimates on company letterhead.
  • Ask contractors to provide written guarantees. 
  • Find someone else if a contractor insists on cash payment. 
  • Are the contractor's licenses and registrations valid?  
  • Did the contractor offer you a legitimate business card?  
  • Check to see if the contractor is registered with the Better Business Bureau.  
  • Ask for proof of membership in local chambers of Commerce.  
  • How long has the contractor been in business and can he/she provide references from previous customers?

 So are we ready to get started? March is right around the corner, so if you are serious about remodeling your home, NOW is the time to proceed. Home Improvements are meant to be exciting and fun not worrysome!  Lower pricing, personal service, and great warranties will take away all that worry! Let's Begin!
