🛠️ What’s the Best Time to Remodel in Western New York? (It’s Not What You Think)
If you’ve been thinking about remodeling your kitchen, bathroom, or basement — timing can make a bigger difference than you might expect.
At Method Remodels, we work year-round transforming homes across Buffalo and the surrounding areas. And we’ve got the inside scoop on when most homeowners start — and when they should.
❄️ Winter: The Hidden Gem
Most people don’t consider winter an ideal time to renovate — but it actually has some serious perks:
Contractor schedules are wide open
You’re not competing with 10 other homeowners for a spot.Work gets done faster
Fewer active projects = more focused crews.You’re inside anyway
Why not enjoy a space you actually love?
If you're planning a kitchen, bathroom, or basement remodel — winter might be your best-kept secret.
🌸 Spring & Summer: Busy But Convenient
This is when most people book their projects, and for good reason:
You can escape the mess and hang outside while the work gets done
The weather’s better for deliveries, ventilation, and logistics
Kids are out of school — and you’re probably already in “let’s get stuff done” mode
Just keep in mind: contractor calendars fill up fast, so plan early if you're aiming for a spring or summer start.
🍁 Fall: The Sneaky Smart Choice
Fall hits the sweet spot between availability and convenience. It’s not as busy as summer, but not as booked as winter starts getting.
Cooler temps make for comfortable indoor work
You can get everything done before the holidays
Great for tackling last-minute kitchen or bathroom upgrades before guests arrive
