Starting a home remodel can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time. At Big O Renovations, we believe that understanding the process is just as important as the finished result. If you’re unsure what to expect during a home renovation, we’re here to walk you through the key phases and what it’s like to work with a contractor who values communication, timelines, and craftsmanship.
Step 1: Consultation and Planning
Before any work begins, we schedule a walkthrough to discuss your vision, budget, and goals. This is where we get to know your space and learn what you’re hoping to achieve. Whether you’re updating a bathroom, remodeling a kitchen, or planning a full-home renovation, we help you prioritize what matters most.
You’ll receive a clear proposal outlining scope, pricing, and timelines—so there are no surprises later.
Step 2: Design and Material Selection
Once you’ve signed off on the proposal, we move into selecting finishes and finalizing design details. We guide you through the options that suit your style and fit your budget, including:
- Cabinets and countertops
- Tile and flooring
- Fixtures and lighting
This step ensures your renovation feels custom and cohesive while staying within scope.
Step 3: Demolition and Prep
Now the physical work begins. We protect surrounding areas, set up barriers to contain dust, and begin demolition. Whether we’re removing old tile, cabinetry, or drywall, we keep things clean and organized.
For many homeowners, this is when it becomes real—things might look messy for a while, but it’s all part of the transformation.
Step 4: Construction and Installation
This is the longest phase and includes everything from framing and plumbing to electrical, drywall, tile, and finish carpentry. We’re on-site daily to manage progress, coordinate trades, and ensure everything stays on schedule.
One reason our clients appreciate Big O Renovations is that we keep you informed throughout the process, so you always know what’s happening and what’s next.
Step 5: Finishing Touches and Final Walkthrough
Once all the major work is done, we move into the final phase. We check for touch-ups, clean the job site, and walk through the completed space with you. This is your opportunity to review the work and ask questions.
We don’t consider the job complete until you’re happy with the result.
Why the Process Matters
Knowing what to expect during a home renovation helps reduce stress and keeps expectations clear. Our process is designed to minimize disruption, communicate openly, and deliver quality results—on time and on budget.
From start to finish, we’re here to make your renovation feel less like a headache and more like a partnership.
