5 Major Home Repairs to Leave to the Pros

Undertaking major home repairs can be daunting, especially for first-time homeowners. Many projects are complex and costly, increasing the risk of costly mistakes if attempted without professional help. You should always leave higher level renovation tasks to the experts.


Before starting any major home repair, carefully assess your skills and consider whether its something you should leave to the professionals. Some projects are best left to licensed professionals, like an electrician or professional plumber.

Home Style Renovations can assist with design and installation for many home improvement projects, including updating your flooring.


Before starting any major home repair. Always consider the timeline for your renovation. Some projects may take longer than expected, so having a clear understanding of the schedule can help you plan accordingly. Their team will work diligently to complete the project in a timely manner (to save you money) while maintaining high-quality standards and ensuring all necessary permits are obtained.


It's also essential to establish a realistic budget before embarking on any renovation. Home Style Renovations can help you navigate the costs associated with materials, labor, and any unforeseen expenses that may arise during the project.


Finally, remember that renovations can be disruptive to your daily routine, so always leave time for adjustments. Planning for temporary living arrangements or adjusting your schedule can alleviate stress and make the process of renovation smoother, particularly when tackling a significant project. With the right support and preparation, we can transform your home into a space that reflects your style and meets your needs. 


1. Home Roofing Installation:

Roofing repairs can be extremely dangerous for the inexperienced. Working at heights carries significant risks, and even death. During shingle installation minor errors can lead to leaks and mold. It's also crucial to maintain the structural integrity of your home during this process, especially if you are making any structural repair changes. Improper installation can result in a bigger mess than you started with. 


  • Why Professionals are Best: They have the expertise to navigate complex projects, including those involving wiring and permits. They have the skills and experience to handle structural issues that may arise during home renovation, including those related to the gas line.. Roofers are trained and equipped for safe work at tall heights. They ensure proper installation, preventing costly future repairs and helping you save money in the long run.


  • We Can Help: While we don't install roofs, we provide shingles and lumber for your roofing needs and contractor connections.


2. Kitchen Remodeling:

Kitchen remodeling involves intricate planning and execution.


  • Why Professionals are Best: Kitchen remodeling experts have the experience and efficiency to complete the project quickly and effectively. They can handle electrical work, plumbing, and other complex tasks, so it's wise to hire a professional for home renovation projects that tackle structural changes.


  • Benefits: Hiring professionals frees up your time, allowing you to focus on other priorities. Homestyle Renovations have completed hundreds of successful kitchen remodeling projects across the Windsor Essex-County area. 

3. Bathroom Renovation: 

A successful project can enhance the integrity of your home and increase its value. However if it goes bad, its the opposite. Bathrooms contain a mix of plumbing, electrical, and delicate fixtures, making them challenging to renovate. Professional installers have the experience to handle certain projects with ease. 


  • Why Professionals are Best: Professionals can handle complex tasks like tiling, installing ventilation, and addressing water damage. They ensure compliance with building codes and safety regulations.


4. Installing AC or Furnaces:

Improper HVAC installation can lead to serious safety hazards, including electrical fires and gas leaks; always hire a professional to ensure safety. Also please consider that all repairs involving high voltage equipment and wiring should be left to the professionals.


  • Why Professionals are Best: HVAC installation requires specialized tools, training, and precise calculations to ensure everything operates safely and efficiently, especially when working with gas lines.


  • Legal Considerations: In Ontario, it's illegal to install your own furnace. Hiring a licensed professional ensures safety and compliance, which is essential for any home renovation project.


5. Window & Door Installation: 

While DIY window and door replacements may seem cost-effective, they can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Proper installation is vital to maintain the integrity of your home. Not to mention the energy loss if your windows and doors are installed incorrectly. 


  • Why Professionals are Best: Professionals complete installations quickly and efficiently, ensuring proper fit and energy efficiency, which can be straightforward when done correctly.


  • We Can Help: We offer quality windows and doors with the knowledge of how to install these items into your home without leaks, or loss of energy. Safety is also a big concern here, as you are dealing with heavy items, with glass panes.
