Whether you’re remodeling one room or most of your house, knowing when to do so makes the next few weeks of your life much easier. Most people naturally assume warm weather is the ideal time to remodel; however, when you should call your remodeling contractor greatly depends on the type of work you are doing. Some projects are ideal during summertime while others are perfect for the winter.

Spring & Summer, or “Peak” Seasons

Spring and summer are the peak home improvement seasons and the best time for indoor projects, such as bathroom or kitchen remodeling. Summer is also an excellent time because many people go on vacation, meaning you probably will not be disrupting your neighbors with loud remodeling work as much. If you and your family plan on vacationing in the late spring or summer, you may want to schedule work with your remodeling contractor, so you do not have to live in a house undergoing renovations. However, you will still be remodeling during peak season, which often results in higher supply and labor demand—and, therefore, a more expensive project.

Fall, or “Off” Season

The offseason, or the fall, is another excellent time to remodel. This is especially true if you start just as peak season ends, such as early September. Material and service costs are usually quite low at this time. Offseason projects are also ideal if you plan to host many parties or events during the holidays—your new kitchen or living room will be the talk of each get-together.

Winter, or “Low” Season

While not all indoor remodels are suitable for winter due to the combination of paint fumes and lack of ventilation, it is possible to install new appliances and anything else that does not involve gaseous chemicals. Winter is also a surprisingly suitable time for outdoor projects because the dry air and cold ground make it easy to dig foundations and pour concrete. Humid conditions and damp or muddy ground in the spring and summer do not help such tasks.
