Renovations Apartments are generally repaired, maintained, and renovated by landlords and owners between tenants, for the general upkeep of the building and to improve the value of the homes available for rent. But tenants, upon moving in, may decide that they want to make changes of their own. How should you go about making changes? What do you need to know? What decisions do you need to make? It is important, above all, to know what you’re getting yourself into. Renovation is a risky venture. Doing your homework is a necessary first step in undertaking any major project. Know your building: speak with your landlord, co-op board, or other controlling entity to make sure you are allowed to make changes, especially if your plan involves altering the structure of your apartment. Know your contractor: construction involves taking a lot on faith, so you should make sure that you have faith in those doing the work; check references, get multiple cost estimates, and make sure your contractor has a good record with the Department of Consumer Affairs, the Department of Buildings, and the Better Business Bureau.
