Waiting is what makes it expensive
Small problems spread behind finished walls while the room still looks fine. Send four details, we call today.
Chosen by 100+ homeowners across Seattle, from Ballard to West Seattle.
We did the basement, the hall bath and the laundry in one go. One contract, one schedule, and the same foreman the whole way through. Three separate contractors would have taken a year. They did it in nine weeks.

Most Seattle home remodels stall between trades. The tile setter waits on the plumber, the plumber waits on the electrician, and the homeowner ends up managing the gaps.
We run whole-home and multi-room projects differently. As Seattle bath remodeling specialists, we bring the model we built in bathrooms to the whole house: one in-house crew, one written fixed price before demo, and permits handled for you.
Basements, laundry rooms, aging-in-place updates or several rooms in one pass, priced and scheduled as a single job.
From first call to final walkthrough, the process is built so you know the price, the schedule and who is in your house at every step.
STEP 1
Send the form with what you want changed: an unfinished basement, a layout that stopped working, several rooms that need doing at once. We talk through scope and give you an honest budget range in that first conversation.
STEP 2
We walk the whole scope, check what is behind the walls involved, and sequence the rooms so you are never without a working kitchen and bathroom. You get one written fixed price and a week-by-week schedule for the entire project.
STEP 3
One in-house crew carries the project room by room: demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, finishes. The house stays livable, the site is cleaned daily, and you sign off at a final walkthrough before we call it done.
Send four details through the form and a project manager calls you back today. The in-home measure gets you one written fixed price for the whole scope.
Most quotes are booked within two days of the first call.
A whole-home remodel in Seattle is really a negotiation with the house’s era. Craftsman homes in Ballard and Wallingford hide knob-and-tube wiring and plaster that cracks if you rush it. Mid-century ramblers in West Seattle and Maple Leaf carry undersized panels and settled framing. Basements across the city need moisture handled before any finish goes in.
After a decade inside these houses, our quotes already account for what your era tends to hide. The crew that opens the first wall is the crew that hands you the keys back.
Real projects across the city: different homes, different budgets, same crew.
Costs, sequencing, permits and living through a bigger remodel: what Seattle homeowners ask before committing.
Seattle home remodels run $100 to $300 per square foot depending on scope. A basement finish typically costs $60,000 to $120,000, a multi-room interior remodel $75,000 to $200,000, and a whole-home remodel of an average Seattle house $200,000 to $450,000.
The biggest cost movers are kitchens and bathrooms in the scope, structural changes and the era of the house. You get one written fixed price for the entire scope at the in-home measure.
Several at once, usually by 15 to 25 percent. Mobilisation, permits, dust protection and trade sequencing are paid once instead of per project, and one crew moving room to room wastes no gaps between trades.
The trade-off is a longer continuous disruption. That is why we sequence the work so a working kitchen and at least one bathroom stay available throughout.
A multi-room remodel typically runs 8 to 14 weeks on site, and a full whole-home remodel 3 to 6 months. Permits add 2 to 8 weeks before work starts depending on whether structural changes are involved.
You get a week-by-week schedule with the quote. Material lead times are confirmed before demolition, so the house is never opened up waiting on a delivery.
Cosmetic work in place needs none. Anything touching plumbing, wiring, walls or the building envelope requires permits from the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections, and removing load-bearing walls adds engineering. Basement bedrooms need egress windows to be legal.
We pull every permit and meet the inspectors, and the schedule already includes inspection days.
Usually yes, if the work is sequenced for it. We keep a working kitchen and one bathroom available at all times, seal active work zones with dust barriers, and move room by room rather than opening the whole house at once.
For full gut remodels touching every room, moving out for the heaviest 4 to 6 weeks is honestly cheaper than the friction of living inside it. We will tell you which kind of project yours is before you commit.
Order follows the systems, not the rooms. Anything structural comes first, then rough plumbing and electrical, then rooms finish in the order that keeps the house livable: usually bathrooms before kitchen, bedrooms last.
Remodeling one room at a time over several years reverses this logic and costs more, because walls get opened twice. If the budget only covers one room now, we scope it so the next phase does not undo finished work.
Yes, and more than most projects. Finished lower-level space in Seattle typically appraises at $300 to $500 per square foot while costing $150 to $250 to build, provided the moisture is handled and any bedroom has legal egress.
A basement finished without permits or with moisture shortcuts does the opposite, since it becomes an inspection problem at sale. Done right, it is the cheapest square footage you can add to a Seattle house.
The same three we find in kitchens and bathrooms, at larger scale: knob-and-tube wiring that must be replaced in any opened wall, galvanized plumbing at the end of its life, and framing that settled out of level decades ago.
A whole-home scope actually softens the blow, because these are fixed once for the whole house instead of re-discovered project by project. Anything found is photographed, priced and approved by you before we touch it.
