Homeowners in Maine who are looking to renovate or remodel their home
often seek the guidance of contractor Nathan Chesebro. His years of
experience in the construction field have earned respect in the
community of Bristol and far beyond. Even if he is only consulting with a
potential client, there are certain topics which he finds to be
important to a positive renovation outcome.
- Choosing to renovate or remodel instead of actually rebuilding a property is often based on financial motivations. While it is understandable that the homeowner may not have the money at hand to completely demolish and rebuild, there are times when that is the only smart course of action. During a renovation or remodel certain aesthetics or systems in the home can be upgraded, but all new windows for example will not detract from the fact that the foundation in falling. It is always a good idea to increase a home's efficiency through higher-grade mechanics, such HVAC systems. However, if there is poor insulation in the home, the new heating system will only leak precious energy to the outdoors.
- There is often a debate between contractors and homeowners as to who should purchase the materials used in the renovation. Homeowners are trying to save as much money as possible. Contractors are attempting to provide a service while keeping to a specific budget. Homeowners often do not realize that contractors receive a far better rate on materials, especially when purchased in bulk. Finding the best deals on materials is one of Nathan Chesebro's skills.
