The start of a new year is the perfect time to set goals, make plans, and take the first steps toward transforming your home. Whether you’re considering a custom home build or a major renovation, early planning is key to ensuring a smooth and successful project. At Keith Construction, we’re here to guide you through the process and help you bring your vision to life.
Why Start Planning Now?
Home construction and renovation projects take time. Between design, permits, material selection, and scheduling, a well-thought-out plan ensures that your project stays on track and within budget. Here’s why January is the ideal time to get started:
- Contractor Availability – Builders’ schedules fill up quickly, so securing a spot early is crucial.
- Material Lead Times – Many building materials have extended delivery times. Planning ahead helps avoid delays.
- Budgeting & Financing – Understanding your costs early allows you to explore financing options and set realistic expectations.
- Design & Permitting – The design phase takes time, and permits can take weeks or months to process, depending on the project scope.
