Home Renovation Questions, Answered
Everything Capital Region homeowners ask before starting their home renovation.
Can I supply my own materials for home renovation?
Yes, absolutely. Many Capital Region homeowners purchase flooring, paint, lighting fixtures, tile, cabinet hardware, or accessories from Home Depot, Wayfair, IKEA, or other retailers and hire Mastaba to handle professional installation. We work with customer-supplied materials regularly. Supply your own products and let our crew handle the rest.
How much does home renovation cost in the Capital Region?
Home renovation in Albany and the Capital Region typically ranges from $20,000 for targeted kitchen and bathroom surface updates to $80,000 or more for a comprehensive renovation touching every room in the home. Mastaba provides free detailed estimates for every project.
How long does a home renovation take?
Home renovation projects with Mastaba typically run 4 to 10 weeks depending on scope and material availability. Projects involving multiple rooms may be phased to allow you to continue living in your home throughout the process.
Can I live in my home during a home renovation?
In most cases, yes. Because home renovation doesn't involve major structural work or demolition, you can typically remain in your home throughout the project. We sequence the work to maintain livable conditions and clean the work area at the end of each day.
What home renovation projects add the most resale value?
In the Capital Region market, kitchen updates, bathroom renovations, and new flooring consistently deliver the highest resale ROI. Fresh interior paint and updated lighting also add significant buyer appeal at relatively low cost. Mastaba will advise you on which improvements will have the greatest impact during your free consultation.
Should I renovate before selling my home?
Strategic renovation before listing can significantly increase your sale price and reduce time on market. The key is targeting the right improvements, not over-renovating for your neighborhood. Mastaba works with Capital Region homeowners preparing to sell and can recommend the highest-ROI improvements for your specific home and price point.
Do I need permits for home renovation?
Most cosmetic home renovation work, painting, flooring, fixture replacement, and cabinet updates, does not require permits. If your renovation includes electrical panel upgrades, plumbing changes, or HVAC work, permits may be required. Mastaba will advise on any permit needs and handle the process on your behalf.
What is the best flooring for a whole-home renovation?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the most popular choice for Capital Region home renovations, waterproof, highly durable, available in beautiful wood looks, and comfortable underfoot. Engineered hardwood offers the warmth of real wood with better moisture resistance. Porcelain tile is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways. We'll walk you through options during your selections appointment.
Can you match existing finishes during a home renovation?
We do our best to match existing finishes, but exact matches can be difficult for older materials. In many cases, we recommend updating all surfaces in a space simultaneously for a cohesive look rather than attempting patchwork matches. We'll advise honestly on what's achievable during your estimate.
How do I prioritize what to renovate on a limited budget?
We recommend prioritizing in this order: functional issues first, then high-traffic surfaces (flooring, kitchen, main bath), then aesthetic updates (paint, lighting, trim). During your free consultation, Jeffrey Mason will walk through your home and give you a prioritized renovation plan based on your budget and goals.
