Summer is the perfect time to embark on a home remodeling project. With the warm weather and longer days, construction can progress smoothly. But what if you could combine your remodel with a relaxing vacation? At Emerald Builders of Chicago, we believe that planning your remodel while you’re away can be a seamless and enjoyable experience. Here’s how to make it happen.
Why Plan a Remodel During Your Vacation?
- Minimize Disruption: Home renovations can be noisy and intrusive. By scheduling the work while you’re away, you can avoid the daily disturbances and return to a transformed space.
- Efficient Use of Time: Your absence allows contractors to work uninterrupted, potentially speeding up the project timeline.
- Stress Reduction: Being away from the construction zone can alleviate the stress of living amidst a remodel.

Selecting a reliable and reputable contractor is paramount.

We work closely with you to meet your budget and bring your remodeling dreams to life. - Detailed Planning and Communication
- Design and Material Selection: Before departing, finalize all design elements and material choices. This ensures that the project progresses without delays due to pending decisions.
- Clear Communication Channels: Establish regular check-ins via phone or video calls to receive updates and address any questions. Providing your contractor with multiple ways to reach you is essential for timely decisions.
- Set Up a Local Point of Contact
Designate a trusted friend or family member to act as a liaison. They can oversee daily progress, address immediate concerns, and provide you with on-the-ground insights. - Secure Your Home
- Protect Valuables: Remove or securely store personal items and valuables to prevent damage or loss.
- Safety Measures: Ensure that your home security systems are operational. Inform your contractor about any security protocols to maintain site safety.
