October 12, 2007 // Franchising.com // Waco, Texas – To kick off National Kitchen and Bath Month, celebrated throughout October, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen is providing homeowners with the following educational information to help them find the right remodeling professional for their individual needs.

"Going into a person's home is a very intimate experience for the homeowner," says Doug Dwyer, president and CSO of DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen. "DreamMaker realizes this and is offering solutions on how to choose a professional that meets homeowners' specific needs and fits their personalities."

In today's ever-changing market, increasing the value of a home is a top priority for homeowners. Many are finding that remodeling their baths and kitchens adds value and appeal to the enjoyment of their home and potential payback for the future.

DreamMaker offers the following checklist of things to consider before hiring a bath or kitchen remodeler:

Research

* Consult friends and neighbors on their past remodeling experiences.
* Ask to see a copy of the remodeler's certificate of insurance. Most states require they carry worker's compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance.
* Check out the remodeler's credentials. Contact the Better Business Bureau or the Consumer Affairs Office for detailed background information.
* Ask for references and make the calls.

Planning

* Envision your dream home and what you want the end result to look and feel like.
* Create a detailed plan and budget for the entire project.
* Understand what is going to take place before, during, and after the entire remodel.

Other Suggestions

* Get an agreement in writing before beginning any remodeling project.
