Most renovators keep their pricing behind a consultation. We'd rather show you where our projects start and what moves the number, so you can decide whether we're the right fit before we ever meet. Your own price comes out of the design phase, built from your exact scope and finishes. It goes in writing before anything starts.
Think of these as the floor for each type of project: where the number begins, and where most of ours actually land. Your precise figure is built during design, not guessed over the phone.
Kitchens and baths are most of what we do. We also take on a select few built-ins, additions, and custom decks each year for people who specifically want our process. Those start with a design agreement, like everything else we build.
Two kitchens the same size can price thousands apart. These are the usual reasons, and every one of them gets talked through and priced before you sign.
If a change is worth making, we'll price it. If it means tearing the house apart for a few inches of payoff, we'll say so, and we'll show you the simpler way to get most of the same look.
Older homes hide their problems behind the walls. We'd rather talk about that now than surprise you later.
We'll talk through a sensible cushion up front, so if something turns up behind a wall, you're ready for it.
For older homes, especially anything built before 1960, we usually suggest planning a 10 to 15 percent cushion alongside your project budget.
Here's how it works. If we open a wall and find something, you see it the same day, with photos and a price, not a mystery line on an invoice. The common older-home fixes are priced into your contract before demo starts, so most surprises are already decided and the job keeps moving.
Anything bigger gets a written price from Karl, ready to approve right from your phone. Often the cushion goes unspent. But it's there if the house needs it.
Every proposal we write spells the whole job out in plain language. This is the shape of one, so you know what to expect before you ever ask.
Send us a few details and Karl will get back to you, usually the same day. The first conversation costs nothing, and you'll come away knowing roughly where your numbers land and whether we're the right fit.
Client Care is a reserved service for our past clients and their neighbors: a repair, a short punch list, a day of careful carpentry from someone already trusted in the house. We keep a small calendar for it alongside the renovation work, at the rates below. If we've built for you before, this is yours to use.
One focused fix, or a careful look at something that's been bothering you. This is the smallest visit we make.
A short list knocked out in one trip: a few repairs, some small carpentry, or punch-list items.
Your whole list, worked in priority order. The most we get done in a single visit, and the best value of the three.
Materials are billed separately, at cost plus a small handling fee. A longer list can book more than one day; just ask. When the work becomes a true renovation, gutting a room or moving plumbing, it's priced as a project instead, starting at the minimums above. If you're a past client with a list, reach out and we'll see what the calendar allows.
