Common Kitchen Remodeling Questions

We asked ChatGPT for some common questions and provided answers. 

What Are Potential Challenges  in a Kitchen Remodeling Project and How Can They Be Avoided?

When embarking on a kitchen remodeling project, it’s essential to be prepared for the challenges that may arise. Over the years we’ve created a detailed process to address common remodeling concerns and make sure to avoid them. 

Budget Overruns
Our design build approach minimizes budget overruns. Our initial estimates are accurate to within 10% and our final proposal is fixed price… you won’t pay more unless you make a change to the scope of work.

Project Delays
We take project management very seriously and will create a detaild project calendar during the design process. Your project manager will be on site every day to make sure things stay on time and on budget.

Design Changes
Our design process is very thorough. We want to make sure all design decisions are made in the planning phase to reduce confusion during construction.

Permits and Regulations
We take take care off all the permits and make sure things are built to code. We will start the permit process during design to make sure there will not be any issues.

Disruptions to Daily Life
Our detailed project schedules, communication and daily project management help to minimize disruptions. We also put a lot of effort into protecting your home with dust barriers, HEPA filters and other tools to make sure it stays clean and organized during the project.

What Responsibilities Might I Have as a Client During the Remodeling Process?

About 3 weeks before your project starts we will have a ‘preconstruction meeting’ at your home to go over job site set up and how to prepare for your remodel.

We will also email a remodeling guide we’ve put togehter that is full of tips from past clients. 

Preparation of the Area: We will go over how to prepare the work area at your pre-construction meeting. This involves removing personal items, disussing where we can park, where to put the porta-john, which door to use, how to lock up etc… 

Make Timely Decisions: We will create a very detailed set of plans and instructions for the construction crew. But when there are questions it’s important to respond quickly. We use a project management software that makes this easy for you. 

Read Daily Updates: Your project manager will do at least 3 daily logs each day. It’s important to review these to make sure you understand progress and note any questions you might have. 

Typical Timeline for Kitchen Remodels

We will build a detailed project calendar so you know what to expect each day of the project. You project manager will also email you daily updates.

Design
The design process for a bathroom remodel can take 4-8 weeks.

Ordering
We like to have all materials in our warehouse before the project starts. We will order everything for you.

Construction:
The construction part of a kitchen remodel can take 4-10 weeks depending on the size of the project.

Variables such as the scope of work, availability of materials, and our backlog of work can all impact these timelines. We’ll discuss project timelines in detail during the design process.

Handling Changes During the Project

Our planning proces is very thorough to avoid and changes during construction. However sometimes changes are needed either due to unforseen conditions or because the client requests a change. We handle these with a change order.

When a change is needed your project manager will discuss it with you and then create a change order document that outlines the costs and affect on the project timeline. Then we will release it to you for approval.

What should I know about the team working on my remodeling project?

When embarking on a remodeling project, understanding the composition of your project team is crucial. When you work with MKB you project team consists of our Designer, our Project Manager and our trade partners. 

Our designers and project managers are highly trained professionals so you are in good hands. We choose our trade partners very carefully and have worked with most of them for many years so we work well as a team.

Design Build Kitchen Remodeling Contractors

McManus Kitchen and Bath is a kitchen remodeling contractor with a full service showroom right here in Tallahassee, FL. We help homeowners update their kitchen with a turn key process so you can enjoy the remodeling experience as much as you’ll enjoy the result.

We have been working in Tallahassee since 2015. Our remodeling contractors license number is CRC133126, we carry general liability, workers comp and commercial auto insurance.

We start each new client relationship with a discovery call to learn more about your kitchen project and discuss how we work. After the call if you feel we are a good fit we will schedule a design and budget consult.

The consult is how we create your kitchen estimate and it has two steps: a home visit, followed by a showroom visit. at the home visit we will discuss your ideas and get accurate measurement. Then we will schedule a time for you to visit our showroom to review 3D concept drawings and a good-better-best budget for your project.

After the consult we will ask for a design retainer equal to 5% of your budget and start the kitchen design process to finalize all the details. We typically have 2-4 design meetings for each project. At the end of the design process we will present you with a fixed price proposal for your kitchen remodel.

Once design is complete we order everything for you and store it until needed. During construction your dedicated project manager is on site every day for quality control, keeping the jobsite clean and making sure the project runs on time and on budget.

When the project is complete we provide a 5 year warranty and send you an annual email to check in and make sure everything is working as expected.
