To design your dream house, you have to share your unique vision with several contractors and repairmen. But who do you call to help you create the prefect living space for you and your family? Here are five home improvement professions that you can trust to make your vision a reality.

 

General Contractor

Knowing where to start a home improvement project can be a challenge. The first person to call would be a contractor that can help you plan and budget your project. A contractor helps you estimate the costs of labor and materials, plan and schedule repairs and even do some hands-on work as necessary. Once they plan a project, contractors will direct you to other qualified home improvement professionals.

 

Window Installers

Quality window installation can drastically improve your home and slash your energy bills. Window installation projects can run the gamut from the installation of custom window shutters to replacing all the windows in your home. Window installers remove and dispose of your old windows and debris, service and repair any future damages to your new windows or doors, and you can expect them in your home 2-3 days depending on project size.

 

Carpet and Floor Installers

Flooring can make or break a room. Carpet and floor installers fix any irregularities in your flooring and carpets, as well as remove and lay down new carpet, tile or hardwood flooring. While a stylish floor makes your home look nice, a carpet or floor installer helps you choose an appropriate floor based on budget, a room’s foot traffic, and the right quality flooring for your home.

 

Residential Electricians

Properly working electricity and lighting are staples of the modern home. Residential electricians work with you during your home improvement project to ensure safety and create the right ambiance for your home. They’re also on-call for any electrical emergencies that may need attention. Besides home repairs, residential electricians also install new electrical systems and replace faulty and outdated ones, as well as improve your current system for energy efficiency and safety.

 

Interior Designer

When it comes to home improvement, interior designers are perhaps the most notable helpers to enlist. They are responsible for choosing the right colors, furniture and accessories to make your home comfortable and visually enjoyable. Interior designers cater to a wide range of specialties, taking into account the space’s purpose, your preferences and personal needs, such as accessibility and lighting. Their insight is the perfect finishing touch.
