Mannis Home Enhancement is a five star Home Repair and Remodeling company located in Boulder, Colorado. We are a family owned and operated business for over 97 years. We can fix it, build it, assemble it, clean it, remodel it, paint it, improve it, landscape it, insulate it, you name it, we can do it!
"DO NOT hire Mannis for your general contract needs. We made this horrible mistake, and it ended up costing us significantly. These other positive reviews seem to be from much smaller projects. I m almost certain our renovation was one of their first attempts at a larger project. Tyler has little to no experience in this field, and Mike (his dad/owner) was of no help. We hired Mannis to finish our basement. You name it, it went wrong multiple crews in and out, creating disjointed work, chaos, and miserable outcomes. While the project was already running significantly over the original timeframe, and after we had advanced them (early!), the second deposit, Tyler took off to Thailand for 2 weeks. Upon his return, he called us immediately requesting more money, (before even the completion of the reciprocal work which should have been completed with the second deposit) and accused us of micro-managing the project, despite him not even visiting the work site, or addressing why the project had gone so off the rails. The project was eventually abandoned, and the incomplete work that WAS done was horrible: walls weren't straight, walls weren't floated properly, electrical was incomplete and dangerously unprotected, the wrong insulation was used throughout, plumbing had to be ripped out and redone, and trash was sealed up in the walls. We found out many things were not done to code, and it cost us a terrible amount of time and money to rectify. "

The 30% rule serves as a guideline suggesting that renovation costs should not exceed 30% of your home's current market value. This principle helps prevent over-investing in improvements that the market may not fully reward upon resale.
For example, if your property is valued at $200,000, keeping your renovation budget under $60,000 provides better financial returns. However, this rule should be balanced with your personal goals and how long you plan to remain in the home.
A $50,000 budget can effectively transform several spaces if carefully allocated. This amount covers a moderate kitchen refresh combined with a bathroom update, or several less complex rooms like bedrooms and living areas.
Your geographic location, material choices, and the extent of structural changes significantly impact what this budget can accomplish. Focusing on cosmetic improvements rather than major layout changes helps maximize your investment across multiple spaces.
Labor constitutes the largest expense in multi-room remodels, accounting for 40% to 70% of total costs. Kitchen and bathroom spaces demand the highest investment due to their specialized fixtures, cabinetry requirements, and necessary plumbing work.
Premium materials such as natural stone countertops, hardwood flooring, and custom cabinetry also significantly increase project costs. Strategic budgeting that balances splurges and savings helps manage these high-cost elements effectively.
Most multi-room remodeling projects require three to six months from start to completion, though complex renovations may extend longer. The process follows a necessary sequence of demolition, structural work, mechanical rough-ins, finishing, and final detailing.
Timeline variables include material availability, contractor scheduling, inspection delays, and unexpected conditions discovered during construction. Establishing clear communication with your contractor and making prompt decisions helps maintain momentum throughout the project.
Begin with foundational and structural modifications that affect multiple spaces before progressing to individual rooms. Address "wet" areas like kitchens and bathrooms next, as these involve the most complex work with plumbing and specialized installations. Complete bedrooms and living spaces last to prevent damage to newly finished areas.
This logical progression minimizes redundant work and creates at least one functional living zone throughout the renovation process. Coordinating related work across different spaces also improves efficiency and potentially reduces costs.
