What We Remodel

Full Gut Remodels

A full gut remodel takes a home down to the studs and rebuilds the interior from scratch. This is the right approach for older homes in Vancouver and Clark County that have outdated electrical panels, galvanized plumbing, deteriorated insulation, or a floor plan that no longer works. We handle demo, framing, mechanical rough-in, drywall, and all finish work.

Kitchen and Bath Renovations

Kitchen and bathroom renovations are the most common partial remodels we take on in the Vancouver area. We reframe layouts, relocate plumbing, install new electrical, and complete all finish work including cabinetry, countertops, tile, and fixtures. All work is permitted when structural or mechanical changes are involved.

Whole-House Updates

Some homes need comprehensive updates across multiple rooms without a full gut. This might include new flooring throughout, updated electrical panels and outlets, new HVAC, fresh drywall and paint, and new windows. We scope these projects room by room so you know exactly what is included in the estimate.

How We Handle Home Remodels in Clark County

We start every remodel project with an on-site walkthrough. We assess the existing structure, identify any issues that could affect scope or budget, and discuss your goals. After the walkthrough, we provide a detailed written estimate broken down by trade and task so you understand where your budget is going.

Permits are required for most remodels that involve structural changes, mechanical relocations, or the addition of any square footage. We handle the permit application and coordinate all required inspections with Clark County or the City of Vancouver. Work does not start until the permit is issued.
