Tim P Jones
How easily can you imagine a guidebook that will prepare you for what is about to occur during your home remodeling project? Well that’s exactly what has been done for you in “CUT THE CHAOS – The Ultimate Guide to Residential Remodeling”. From preliminary design to construction documents, Tim shares with you many of his experiences over 35 years of designing homes. From permit processing to final inspection, he shares some stories of success, and failure, on home remodeling projects that he has designed. He outlines specific actions for you to take, and some actions NOT to take, in order to stay in control of your home remodeling project. You will learn how he thinks, how he gets his vision for a design, and how he takes that vision into your project. You will learn how he creates a reality, that up to this point in time, you've only imagined in your mind. When you think of remodeling your home, all sorts of images may appear in your mind. You undoubtedly know of friends and neighbors who have done remodeling projects, and you've heard their war stories too. Architects that cost too much, a draftsman that didn’t know enough, contractors who were unlicensed or uninsured, or who started, then disappeared with the money half way through the project! All of these things can happen, they have happened, and unfortunately, they will continue to happen. Tim’s goal in writing “CUT THE CHOAS” is to make sure that none of these things ever happen to you… the unsuspecting homeowner. Together we will explore such topics as “Interior Design”, “Aging in Place”, and the ever present question “Where Do I Start?”. You will learn about the value of having a valid building permit, and the scope of work that can be undertaken, legally, without a permit. You will learn about the Foundation, Plumbing, Electrical, and Framing. You'll learn about Painting, Flooring, Cabinets, and all the contractors you’ll need to perform that work. Ultimately you’ll learn a whole lot about you, and the work you’re about to accomplish. You’ll be astonished when Tim describes some of the circumstances that you will eventually face during your home remodeling project. You are going to make decisions that you never imagined you could make. You're going to dream, yes dream, of what your life could look like.
