Renovations and additions, done in the right order

Built for the coast
In a flood zone, a large renovation can trigger the substantial improvement rule: if the cost of the work reaches 50 percent of the building's market value, the whole house may need to meet current flood requirements, including elevation. We look at that before you're committed, not after.
Additions on elevated homes have to match the existing floor height and tie into the existing roof and framing. Those connections are what keep an addition from leaking or settling.
We choose materials that tolerate humidity: moisture-resistant board in baths, proper vapor management, and ventilation that keeps mold from getting a start.
How the job runs
We start with what you want the space to do, then walk the house to see what's behind the walls. You get a written scope, a price and a schedule.
During the job you have one point of contact and a weekly update. Inspections, deliveries and trades are coordinated on our end.
Renovations & Additions FAQ
What is the 50% rule?
For homes in a FEMA flood zone, if the cost of improvements or repairs reaches 50 percent of the structure's market value, the building generally must be brought into compliance with current floodplain rules. Your local floodplain administrator makes the determination; we help you plan the project around it.
Can I stay in the house during a renovation?
For many kitchen, bath and addition projects, yes. Whole-home work usually goes faster and safer with the house empty. We'll talk through what living there during the job would look like.
Do you handle design?
We work from your ideas or from plans by your architect or designer, and can bring in a designer if you need one. Either way, we make sure the plan is buildable and priced before work starts.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
It depends on scope and on lead times for cabinets and materials. Once the plan is set, we give you a schedule and order the long-lead items early.
