How Long Does a Full Home Remodel Take?
A full home remodelling can take anywhere from a few months to a year, depending on the size of your home and the extent of the renovations being done. There are also a few time-consuming steps that come from the planning stages.
Factors Influencing Remodelling Duration
- The Areas Where Renovations are Being Done: Some parts of a home remodelling are more time-consuming than others; for example, kitchens tend to take the longest since there are many plumbing, gas, and electrical factors to consider. This process can be exceptionally long if you are moving the location of your ovens, dishwasher, etc.
- House Size: Naturally, the larger your home is, the longer your remodel will take, as more labour and resources are needed for the job.
- Extent of the Renovation: If your remodel includes significant structural changes to your home, it will take much longer. Adjusting framing, beams, walls, windows, and plumbing is a long process.
A Rough Home Remodelling Timeline
- Planning and Design: This is a 1 to 3-month process where you work with your home renovation contractor to plan precisely what you want done to your home. Sketches and renderings are prepared at this time.
- Demolition: Demolishing existing walls, floors, and structures can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, depending on your home.
- Actual Renovation Work: The process of building new structures, installing new electrical and plumbing fixtures, and conducting interior design work can take 1-6 months.
- Final Touches: Paint, appliance installation, and any finishing touches or cosmetic touches will take 2 to 4 weeks.
