Typical whole-space remodels in the Triangle fall in the $60,000 to $150,000 range, scope-driven from there. You get one accountable team and a documented plan, not a rotating cast of subs.
We walk the space, verify what is structural, and price the scope honestly — options and allowances in writing before you commit.
Materials and fixtures get chosen and scheduled up front, so the build never stalls waiting on a faucet.
Demolition through punch list runs on a written schedule with county inspections — and communication that does not make you chase it.
- Kitchens redesigned around how your household actually cooks and gathers
- Primary suites and baths rebuilt to current comfort, storage, and code
- Load-bearing walls evaluated and engineered before anything is opened
- Whole-level layout reworks that fix flow instead of decorating around it
- Electrical, plumbing, and mechanical brought to code as walls open
- Fixed-scope contract pricing with allowances itemized line by line
- Dust control and living-through-it planning treated as part of the job
- Durham, Wake & Orange permits and inspections handled start to finish

Typical whole-space remodels fall in the $60,000 to $150,000 range — a major kitchen at the heart of it, primary suites similar, and multi-space or whole-level reworks scope-driven above. The walkthrough turns the range into a fixed, itemized number.
Usually yes for single-space projects — we contain dust, protect paths, and keep water and power planned around your evenings. Whole-level reworks sometimes make a short move-out the saner choice; you will know from the written schedule before work starts.
Any project touching structure, electrical, plumbing, or mechanical does — which is most real remodels. We run permits and inspections through Durham, Wake, or Orange county as part of the scope; inspection sign-offs are your proof the work is right.
Selections happen before demolition, the schedule is written into the contract, and one accountable team runs the sequence. Changes get priced and approved in writing before they happen — the drift that sinks remodels is exactly what the fixed-scope process exists to prevent.
