You’re not sure whether you should remodel your current home or build a new custom home in Whangarei. Both options have their own set of advantages and disadvantages, and it can be difficult to decide which is the best option for you.
It depends
There is no simple answer to the question whether to remodel or to build brand new, as it depends on a variety of factors including budget, timeline, and personal preference. Generally speaking, remodeling a home is typically cheaper and faster than building a new one from scratch, but there are some exceptions. If your home is in bad shape and needs extensive repairs, it may be more cost effective to build a new home. However it does often negate the need for council. Which let’s face it, is a plus.
Having a renovation done means there will be a lot less work for the construction company internal walls may be moved, but structural walls will remain. And as a rule, few choose to remodel their entire house in one go.
The main advantage of remodeling is that you can keep the features of your home that you love, while updating others to better suit your needs. For example, if you love your neighborhood but need more space, you could add an addition onto your home rather than moving to a new location. Remodeling also allows you to add your own personal touches and really make the space your own.
Building a new custom home gives you the opportunity to start from scratch and design a space that perfectly suits your needs and future needs. You don’t have to just ‘play round the edges’.. You get to choose everything from the layout to the finishes, and you don’t have to work around existing features that you don’t like. The risk though is that it can be more costly and time-consuming than renovation, and that anything can go wrong during building if you work with an inexperienced builder.
The best way to decide whether remodeling or building a new custom home is right for you is to consult with a professional contractor with a great build history who can assess your needs and give you an estimate of the cost and timeline for both options. Once you have all the information, you can make an informed decision about which option is best for you. It is not always about the money however, so will remodelling be a band-aid to a bigger problem (of the house not fitting how you live).
