DIY versus Hiring a Professional Home Renovator; How to Make the Call.

So you have been considering a home remodel for awhile. That ugly 1980's brown carpet is begging to be ripped out and you are ready for solid hickory wood floors.

But when should you tackle a home project yourself or hire a Oregon Licensed Contractor?


Here are some questions to ask yourself?


Can you afford the time and money for the materials to pay to do it twice?

Will it cost you more in tool purchases than material do?

How long are you willing to live in a construction zone?


Most of the time by answering these three key questions, it is safe to say call a home remodeling expert. Professionals bring a wealth of experience that most homeowners simply do not have. If you haven't installed bull nosed tile, do you really want to attempt that back splash? Are you confident in your back buttering abilities? If you don't even know what these terms mean, put down the tile and call Longhouse! Contractors know the best techniques and materials to restore a home to its pristine condition. Our know how ensures that the job is done right the first time, elevating the need for costly future fixes.


Time and Stress Management.

Another significant reason to hire professionals is the time and stress you'll save. Managing a home remodeling project involves scheduling, permitting, and coordinating different tasks that can become overwhelming. Professionals work efficiently and have established relationships with suppliers, which can streamline the process. This not only speeds up the project but also reduces the mental burden on you as a homeowner, allowing you to continue with your daily life without interruption.

Moreover, professionals possess access to superior materials and sophisticated tools that are typically unavailable to most homeowners. These resources guarantee that the end result is both long-lasting and visually appealing. Furthermore, professional contractors provide warranties and guarantees for their work, offering you reassurance that your investment is secure. Should any issues arise, they are accountable for resolving them, alleviating another concern from your mind.


In conclusion, while DIY home remodeling may seem like a rewarding endeavor, the benefits of hiring professionals far outweigh the potential pitfalls. With their expertise, efficiency, and quality of work, professional contractors can transform your home seamlessly and stress-free. To ensure your renovation is a success, it's best to leave it in the hands of those who do it for a living.
