π Thinking about renovating your whole home? Here is the honest truth about what it takes.
A full whole-house renovation has 14 distinct phases and typically takes 10 to 12 months from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. Here is how the journey unfolds:
β
Consultation and discovery
β
Design and planning
β
Permitting
β
Demolition
β
Structural framing
β
MEP rough-in (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing)
β
Insulation and drywall
β
Flooring, tile, and millwork
β
Cabinetry, countertops, and fixtures
β
Painting and finishes
β
Final inspections and Certificate of Occupancy
β
Punch list and close-out
Every phase requires the right licensed professionals, the right timeline, and clear communication with you every step of the way.
