Who’s ready to get their home shopping on?
The Denver Home Show returns this year and will be held March 24-26 at the National Western Complex. This will be our 7th year in a row attending–and we’d love to see you there! Christie’s will be offering a special 30% discount on any in-house cabinet orders placed during the event, so you won’t want to miss out.
A home show is a great opportunity to get excited about your next remodeling project and spark your imagination. It’s your chance to meet with industry professionals (including us) who are ready to help you take on your next challenge.
What Is A Home Show?
A home show is a marketplace where contractors, architects, landscapers, and designers gather to showcase their services and meet with homeowners. It’s an excellent opportunity to find inspiration and connect with local industry experts ready to give great advice.
The Denver Home Show is one of the largest home shows in Colorado, with more than 400 exhibitions to explore, featuring landscaping companies, remodeling contractors, interior design companies, etc., special sweepstakes, and the Annual Sogetsu Colorado Ikebana Show.
Not sure if a home show is for you? Take a look at this refresher. We’ve rounded up some of the best reasons to attend to help you decide.
Why Should You Attend a Home Show?
1. You’re overwhelmed with your home projects
Completely understandable. We all have those moments where we don’t know where to start, but don’t worry! This is the time to research and look at new emerging trends in remodeling to help you determine what will work best for your house, whether you plan to live there, sell it, or rent it.
Here are some ideas to keep in mind when exploring booths for inspiration:
- Search for and attend workshops to improve your skills
- Explore product samples to get a feel before you commit
- Compare different materials, aesthetics, and work methods all in one place!
- Keep an eye out for trends and establish which you like and dislike
For more ideas, take a look at our blog, 5 Things to know Before Starting A Home Remodel, before you attend the show.
2. You want to save money
Prices can run up quickly in a remodeling project if you don’t know where to source quality products at reasonable prices. This event is the ultimate destination for purchasing appliances, ordering remodeling supplies, and rendering services on a budget.
At home shows, contractors will typically bring samples so you can get a good idea of the prices for different styles of cabinets, windows, and doors. Make sure to ask contractors about tips and tricks for projects you’re working on. They may have a special discount for you or point you to someone who does. Attending the home show can only be beneficial because you’re saving time and money searching for the perfect contractor when everyone is under the same roof. On top of the many promotions from exhibitors (like ours), The Denver Home Show will also feature sweepstakes with killer prizes, including a trip to Hawaii to build houses with Habitat for Humanity and a $500 VISA gift card.
3. You want to meet with trusted professionals (like Christie’s)
When it comes to choosing the right contractor, having face-to-face time is critical. Not all contractors have a brick-and-mortar shop, so it’s great to attend a home show as a unique opportunity. All the contractors are under one roof, so you can save time narrowing down options without driving to each shop and feeling pressured to choose them then and there.
Seize your opportunity to ask questions, share your thoughts, ideas, and concerns, and get a feel for personalities. Bring a pad and pen to jot down your notes.
Contractors (like individuals) have different personalities and mindsets. Use your time at the show to find the right one to collaborate with who has your best interests (and budget) in mind. The relationship between homeowner and contractor is usually a long one; pick a contractor you enjoy interacting with. It’s not just a job but a partnership.
You might as well treat this like a dating show. Ask the right questions to find your perfect match!
Here are 10 examples of questions to ask contractors to determine if they’re the right fit for you:
- What is your remodeling process like?
- What makes your team stand out from the rest?
- What challenges do you anticipate with this kind of project?
- How do you resolve disagreements?
- How do you handle unforeseen challenges?
- What type of insurance do you carry?
- What is the estimated price for the project?
- Can you provide a list of past client referrals?
- What is your estimated timeline for completion?
- How do your designers handle the design stage of the project?
Seize your opportunity to connect with vendors, contractors, and teams before breaking ground. Use our list above to help.
