Frequently Asked Questions
Home additions serve various purposes including master suites, guest rooms, home offices, playrooms, or rental units for additional income. Creative options include sunrooms, art studios, fitness rooms, or multi-generational living spaces. A & R Remodeling designs custom additions that maximize functionality while complementing your existing home architecture.
Stay on budget by setting realistic expectations, prioritizing must-have features, obtaining multiple contractor bids, and preparing for unexpected costs with 10-15% contingency funds. Make material selections early, avoid scope changes mid-project, and maintain clear communication with contractors about budget constraints and priorities.
Improve kitchen lighting with layered ambient, task, and accent lighting including under-cabinet LED strips, pendant lights over islands, and dimmer switches. Install recessed ceiling lights for general illumination and focused task lighting for work areas. Proper lighting design enhances functionality, safety, and ambiance in kitchen spaces.
Maximize kitchen storage with pull-out drawers, pantry organizers, corner cabinet solutions, and vertical storage systems. Install deep drawers instead of cabinets, add toe-kick drawers, and utilize ceiling-height cabinetry. Smart design choices can increase storage capacity by 40-60% through efficient space utilization and custom organization systems.
Permits are required for bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes in North Carolina. Licensed contractors handle all permit applications and ensure compliance with local building codes. Contact your local building department or experienced remodeling contractor to determine specific permit requirements for your bathroom renovation project.
A typical bathroom remodel takes 3-5 weeks for minor updates like vanity replacement, while full bathroom renovations require 8-12 weeks. Timeline depends on permit approval, plumbing complexity, custom tile work, and fixture availability. Most bathroom remodeling projects in Cary, Durham, and Raleigh complete within 6-8 weeks with proper planning.
