TOP 3 TIPS FOR GETTING THE BEST OUT OF YOUR HOME IMPROVEMENT

Check out these home improvement tips every homeowner should know

Whether you’ve just bought a new house in Auckland or considering renovating your existing home, owning your place brings out a home improvement itch in all of us.

Trust us; we were there too! Even if you’re not planning on major renovation projects, it’s wise to set aside some money for repairs and small home improvement tasks each year. It will help you keep your home in top-notch shape for many years to come.

Here are our top 3 tips for getting the best out of your home improvement NZ:

1. Concentrate on what adds the most value to your home

If you had all the money in the world, what home improvements would you do? Many Aucklanders think of renovating a bathroom or changing the hardwood floors. However, some home improvements are more likely to increase your home value than the others. For example, adding an attic bedroom or installing a brand new deck would result in a higher return on investment. As a rule of thumb, any addition to your existing home lay- out is considered to be a worthy investment in your Auckland home. Keep these things in mind, when planning your next home improvement project.

2. Find the best contractors

Choosing the right contractor for the job is about as important as finding a good family doctor. There are plenty of horror stories about disaster home renovations and DIY projects gone awry. If done wrong, your home improvement may cost you thousands of dol- lars to re-do, not to mention the money you’ve already spent. That is why it’s vital to hire the best home renovations company that will do the job right the first time. Here are some practical tips to vet possible contractors:

Get recommendations from friends and family
Inquire about licenses your contractor needs
Ask if they have an insurance
Ask for references and previous projects

We are happy to say that we offer premium home renovation services, and take enormous pride in what we do. We work closely with each of our clients to ensure that we meet your goals on time, without compromising quality. You can check out our client testimonials here.

3. Have a good plan

When it comes to home improvement NZ, the worst thing you can do is to start without having a solid plan in place. Cost, timing, design and materials are all essential elements of your home improvement project. All of those elements should be as realistic as possible to avoid any major surprises down the road. Nothing costs more than making changes to your plan midway, so make sure you are committed to your final plan.

Here at Superior Renovations, we believe that having a home improvement blueprint is a crucial step in tackling your renovation project. Our dedicated project manager will work with you to come up with the home improvement plan that is right for you. Besides, each of our contractors will be supported by a diligent team of client services, here to assist your every need — this way we make sure that your home improvement NZ is a stress-free success.

Whether you’re planning on turning your entire home upside down or making small changes, it’s important to be fully ready when it comes to home improvement NZ. I hope you found our tips useful and are ready to build your dream home! Feel free to contact us here to get a free consultation.

I have recently finished a renovation in our 1930’s bungalow, updating the original (and I do mean original) kitchen and bathroom. Plus creating a new laundry and removing three fireplaces which created two new spaces including an office. From the initial appointment with Alison who came over and then provided drawings and a quotation, to the work with Frank, our project manager and the team, this has been a wonderful renovation experience. I would have described myself as a nervous-renovator prior to doing this, as I had never done a renovation before, but Frank, Alison, Sunny and all the team have worked so tirelessly and generously to create spaces that we love. Superior’s care in managing the project has meant that we have come away with much more than we originally sought to achieve and without the stress I hear others lament about when they renovate. I would recommend Frank, Alison, Sunny and the team at Superior Renovations wholeheartedly.

We engaged with three companies to completely renovate our downstairs and ensuite bathrooms. We elected to go with Superior Renovations as they provided us with a fixed price and specific timeline to complete the project (which two other companies could not do), and we were absolutely delighted with the end result. We love everything from the floor and wall tiles to the heated towel rails and from the LCD mirrors to the underfloor heating and soft close lids. We especially loved replacing the old tub in our ensuite with a walk-in shower.The entire process went incredibly smoothly, with the project being completed on budget and ahead of schedule. From the initial design phase to the final touches, nothing was too much trouble for the team. Superior Renovations conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism, ensuring every detail was perfect.Frank (Project Manager) and the team did such an amazing job. Totally professional outfit, top notch communication, all tradies were courteous, polite and respectful. Alex (Builder) was especially knowledgeable and offered great solutions as minor issues unfolded. Each stage of the renovation was completed on the day it was scheduled. The crew were always on time and mindful of our work from home arrangements. And I was also impressed with the floor protection that was laid out on the first day.Through no fault of Superior, we did encounter a major, unforeseen setback that delayed our renovation on the downstairs bathroom. Superior were patient with us while we sourced specialists to remedy the issue. But once that was all sorted, Frank and the team picked up the baton and charged ahead to the finish line, delivering two beautifully ‘superior’ bathrooms. We also experienced a minor electrical issue post-build. And even though it was unrelated to their renovation work, Frank promptly dispatched an electrician who quickly fixed the problem. Talk about above and beyond!In summary, we highly recommend Superior Renovations for anyone looking to undertake bathroom renovations in their home. We’re already talking about renovating the kitchen next and we’re so confident in Superior Renovations that we will most certainly be engaging with them to complete the task.A huge thank you to Frank, Alex and all the wonderful team at Superior Renovations:)

Superior Renovations transformed our bathroom, and we couldn’t be happier. Cici, Jacob, Alex, and Ray were a fantastic team (Ray, our dog, is going to miss you). They tackled our old house’s quirks with creativity and attention to detail. We were especially impressed that they stayed within budget, even with a few surprises along the way. We’d definitely choose Superior Renovations again and highly recommend them.

We had the best experience using Superior Renovations. They had a good range of products available making it easy to pick the fixtures and fittings. The team were experienced and had great pride in their work, from the office to onsite we were treated like valued customers. The product we ended up with exceeded our expectations.

We have just recently completed a renovation project with Superior Renovations, complete demo and redo of x2 bathrooms, laundry, extension to existing deck, custom cabinets built & new wardrobe system installed.
We have been completely OVERWHELMED and IMPRESSED by the professionalism of the whole team from start to finish. From the initial consultation, visiting the showroom, design team, admin correspondence, project manager and sub-contractors.
We couldn’t be any happier with the final product.
The whole process was extremely well streamlined, we were given timeframes well in advance and informed of any changes.
The whole process was surprisingly stress free and we felt like a valued customer throughout.
THANK YOU 🙏🏽

We engaged Superior Renovations to transform our 30-year old, tired looking and problematic bathroom into something world class - and wow! The end result is simply stunning. The team led by Frank did an absolutely fantastic job. This was our first major renovation project and the entire process was easy and hassle free. The team delivered on schedule, within budget and the quality of their work is outstanding. If you are considering renovating - do not go past these guys.

Wish I had given more of my renovation project to Superior earlier in the process. Superior team was knowledgeable, skilled and exception to work with. Will certainly be a repeat customer if ever a need comes up.

My wife and I are absolutely delighted with the team at Superior Renovations - and the "superior" job and experience they delivered for us in renovating our ensuite and main bathroom. We are so pleased we chose them for our renovation.Everyone from Cici the designer, and Frank our wonderful and attentive project manager, down to the team of guys doing the heavy lifting were a real pleasure to deal with. We were kept informed every step of the way and everything was done to a very high standard. Nothing seems too much trouble for your crew (in fact Frank even became quite good at running after and catching our dog when the naughty little boy escaped), and they even helped me out with a couple of small extras around the house at no additional cost.Their pricing was very fair - no hidden extras, and they are such hard workers! But I think what impressed me most was that everything they promised was done exactly on the day they said it would be done, and at the time they said it would be done. They were a very respectful, friendly team who obviously take immense pride in their work.Thank you Superior team! Recommend 100%
