How to choose between a home renovation and a full remodel

Deciding whether to renovate or remodel your home depends on your needs, budget, and the extent of the changes you want. Here’s a simple guide to help you determine which option is best for your home

What’s the difference?

  • Home renovation: This involves updating or improving existing features like painting, new flooring, or replacing fixtures. It’s generally less expensive and doesn’t require structural changes. A renovation is perfect if you want to refresh the look of your home without altering its layout.
  • Full remodel: A remodel is more extensive. It involves changing the layout or structure of your home, such as knocking down walls, expanding rooms, or upgrading plumbing and electrical systems. A remodel is ideal when you want to completely transform your space.

When should you renovate?

A renovation is ideal if:

  • You just want cosmetic upgrades (e.g., painting, new floors).
  • You’re on a budget but want to enhance your space.
  • You don’t need more space, but just want to freshen up existing rooms.
  • You plan to sell your home and need to make it more marketable quickly.

When should you remodel?

A full remodel is the right choice if:

  • You want to change the layout of your home (e.g., open up the kitchen to the living room).
  • You need to fix structural issues like old plumbing or an outdated electrical system.
  • You need more space, like adding a new room or extending your home.
  • You need more space, like adding a new room or extending your home.

How to decide

  • Budget: Renovations are usually more cost-effective. Remodels can be pricier due to the complexity and structural work involved.
  • Time: Renovations take less time to complete. Remodels can take months, especially if structural work is required.
  • Goals: Choose a renovation for cosmetic updates and a remodel if you want to completely transform your home or address major issues.
