Quiz: Are you ready for a home remodel?
Are you attached to your neighborhood?

- Do your kids go to school nearby?
- Do you love being close to family and friends?
- Do you enjoy your neighbors, or do you hate them?

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
If you answered yes, you've made up your mind to stay in your home and update it to fit your needs. You are in the right place for you and your family and you don't need to change that, you just need to fix the space you're in. Maybe you just need to upgrade the finishes and remodel your bathrooms to make your home look and feel homier. Maybe you need to totally remodel your upstairs to reallocate bedroom space. Maybe you need to add on to your home and backyard for more livable space. Learn about the difference between remodel and renovation projects here.

If you need more space for your family and loved ones in your home, a home addition or remodel can help add and reallocate space in your home. To help our clients accommodate their current and future needs, we've built full second-story additions to add more bedrooms upstairs, patios and decks for more outdoor living space, and small additions on the back of homes to allow us to revamp the first-floor floorplan. Whatever your need for your family's future, we can help you discover the solution. Check out how we've made our clients' houses their dream homes in our home improvement before and after portfolio.
