Tips for comprehensive home reform in Marbella
Choose a professional company
It is obvious and surely you have already thought about it. But we are going to repeat it, because there are those who can happen to it.
Choosing a professional company is one of the keys that make the difference between a reform that ends up becoming a real ordeal and a well-done reform that does not give you more headaches than fair.
Don’t stay in the “I already knew this”, internalize it. When choosing a company, avoid being fooled. Choose who shows professionalism from the first moment; Arriving on time, giving you your budget in the correct time and form, someone who explains the details of the reform in a solvent way.
Think about the use you will give to the house
Another step that seems obvious but that many skip and ends up affecting the result of the reform.
You should not only think in a general way if the use of the house will be to rent it, sell it or live in it. Think of every detail that can help you optimize the use of space, air conditioning or the aesthetics of the home.
Choose what quality you want in the finish of the reform
Check prices of construction materials, study different options. This way you can transfer an accurate summary of your request to the construction company that will carry out the reform.
Decide if you want a low cost, medium budget or luxury reform. Think carefully about your needs and your budget.
What is not seen also matters
If your plan to reform your home includes renewing the plumbing and electrical installations, insist on the company that will carry out the reform so that it is done correctly.
As for the plumbing, it is important that we use pipes of sufficient thickness and that they also have the necessary inclination to avoid future blockages.
The installations of electricity, home automation, heating, air conditioning… must also be made with quality materials and facilitate that they can be manipulated without difficulty in the future. Of course, the use of the installation once finished must be optimal.
Know the permits you have to ask for
Even if you do not like the paperwork and leave the bureaucratic procedures in the hands of professionals, you should know the permits that the work must have, as well as the taxes and fees that you will have to pay. You will avoid surprises in the final budget, and what is more important: fines.
Sign a construction contract with the company that will carry out the reform.
This section is related to hiring a professional company. The budget that you accept must be translated into a contract that both parties must sign. This contract must specify the budgeted tasks, the price and the stipulated time to carry them out.
