How to Choose the Right Contractor and Home Renovation Service?
When deciding to renovate a house or build a new home, the first question that comes up is usually: “How do I choose a contractor
I can really trust?"
I struggled to decide among multiple construction options, from large
companies to local craftsmen to interior pros.
According to research from Gadjah Mada University (2021), homeowners who hire experienced contractors with a portfolio of previous projects are more likely to get results on time, within budget, and with minimal revisions
(Santoso, 2021).
This was evident to me when I hired the professional
team at KonstruksiTuntas.com.
What Is the Difference Between Professional Contractors and Regular Builders?
Professional contractors often include architects, interior planners, and skilled craftsmen in their teams.
Solo builders or small-scale handymen work manually without structured
management or design input.
At the start of my kitchen remodel, I depended on a local craftsman.
It turned out okay, yet some areas, such as tiling and painting, weren’t perfect.
After hiring the professional team from Ciptarancang.com,
all aspects—from design, material estimation, to finishing—were neat and matched the original plan.
According to ITB (2020), involving expert
teams in construction increases client satisfaction by 35% over traditional labor-only projects (Prasetya, 2020,
p. 45).
How to Make Home Renovation Efficient?
Following certain stages ensures a renovation is done efficiently.
Consult designers first to communicate the vision and style of
your home.
Professionals usually recommend various layouts and materials to match your style.
Material and Budget Calculation – Professional contractors make
detailed calculations to avoid waste.
Execution of Structure and Interior – Work is executed step by step:
structural, finishing, interior.
Final Inspection and Project Handover – All project details are verified before
handover.
Structured planning in construction significantly improves time efficiency, by about 20% (Diponegoro
University, 2021).
Why Interior Design Matters in Renovation?
Renovation is often mistaken as purely structural work.
The right interior design enhances comfort, aesthetics, and
functionality.
Budget Alignment – Keeping within budget is a key renovation challenge.
Use materials that optimize cost and durability.
Clear budget planning prevents overspending.
Do high-priority jobs first to manage resources efficiently.
Can Contractors Handle Small and Large Home Renovations?
Professional teams adapt to both small-scale and large-scale renovations.
A friend of mine renovated a two-story minimalist modern home.
Renovation included professional planning, material calculation, and interior
setup.
The final result combined space, comfort, and style efficiently.
