When’s the Best Time to Renovate?

When homeowners think about starting a remodeling project, they often focus on budgets, design choices, or contractor selection — but timing can be just as important.

In Colorado Springs, the seasons dramatically affect construction schedules, material availability, and even the comfort of living through a renovation. Choosing the right season can save money, reduce stress, and help your remodel finish faster.

At Fortune Homes, LLC, we’ve guided countless homeowners through remodeling projects all year long. With insights from owner Scott Fortune and years of local experience, here’s our take on how each season affects remodeling—and which might be best for your project.

Spring: The Season of Fresh Starts

Spring in Colorado Springs signals the end of winter’s chill and the start of longer days, making it one of the most popular times to begin remodeling. The weather is generally mild, which allows work to progress without weather-related delays.

This season is especially great for revitalizing the heart of your home after months indoors. Many homeowners use spring to begin planning a complete culinary space overhaul so they can enjoy their upgraded kitchen by summer. Ordering cabinetry, countertops, and flooring before the busy season hits can help keep your project on track and within budget.

The main downside of spring is that contractor schedules fill quickly. If you’re thinking about a spring remodel, it’s smart to book your consultation as early as possible.

Summer: Peak Season for Major Projects

Summer is the busiest season for remodeling in Colorado Springs—and for good reason. The weather is dry, warm, and predictable, allowing for bigger structural projects like home additions, full basement transformations, and major layout changes.

If you’re dreaming of turning that unused basement into a home theater, gym, or guest suite, summer can be ideal. With longer daylight hours and fewer weather interruptions, crews can work more efficiently. This makes summer an excellent time to schedule a complete lower-level renovation that might require electrical, plumbing, and framing work all at once.

The biggest challenge in summer is competition. Because everyone wants work done during this season, prices on labor and materials can rise. Planning early and locking in your schedule with a trusted contractor like Fortune Homes, LLC can help you avoid delays and cost increases.

Fall: The Budget-Friendly Window

Once school starts and the summer rush fades, fall can become a sweet spot for homeowners looking to remodel. Demand typically slows down, which means contractors may be more flexible with scheduling and pricing. Cooler temperatures also make indoor work more comfortable.

Fall is perfect for projects you want completed before the holidays, especially upgrades that make your home more welcoming for guests. This might include updating your bathroom for visiting family or refreshing your kitchen in time for holiday cooking. If you’re considering one of these projects, now might be the perfect time to start planning your spa-worthy bathroom retreat or revisiting that dream kitchen design you’ve been saving.

Another perk? Since demand for materials slows after summer, you may find discounts on fixtures, appliances, and finish materials that help stretch your budget further.

Winter: The Planning Powerhouse

Winter might not seem like an obvious choice for remodeling, but it can actually be a smart strategic move. Contractors often experience slower schedules during the cold months, which can mean quicker start dates and more personalized attention to your project.

Indoor-only renovations—like basement finishing, bathroom makeovers, or kitchen cabinetry upgrades—can be done comfortably during winter without worrying about snow or freezing temps halting progress. Plus, if you plan and design your project over the winter, you can be first in line when spring schedules open, beating the seasonal rush entirely.

The main drawback is the weather: snowstorms and icy roads can occasionally delay deliveries or crew travel. Still, if you have a flexible timeline and want a head start, winter planning can set your project up for a smooth spring execution.

Choosing the Right Season for Your Remodel

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to the “best” time to remodel. Instead, it depends on your goals, your lifestyle, and your budget.

If speed and ideal weather matter most: aim for summer.
If budget-friendliness is your top priority: consider fall or winter.
If you want your project ready to enjoy by summer: spring is your best launchpad.

Working with a local contractor who understands Colorado Springs’ seasonal rhythms—like Scott Fortune and the team at Fortune Homes, LLC—can help you navigate these factors with confidence. We help our clients build schedules that make sense for their timelines, homes, and families.
