Full Home Renovation Contractor

One Contract. One Team. Every Room Done Right.

Most Northwest Suburbs homeowners who want to update their kitchen, bathrooms, and basement plan to do it over several years — one project at a time. What they do not account for is the cost of doing it that way. Three separate mobilizations. Three separate permit processes. Three separate rounds of living through construction. And no coordination between the trades, so the flooring installed after the kitchen remodel does not match the floors that will go in after the bathroom, and the wall color chosen for the kitchen does not account for what the adjacent living room will look like after it is painted.

Doing it under one contract changes all of that. Permits are coordinated across all scopes simultaneously. Trades are sequenced efficiently. The flooring, paint colors, tile, and cabinet finishes are planned together so the finished home reads as one cohesive project. And the cost savings are real — typically 15–20% versus doing the same work separately over multiple years.

Every full home renovation starts with a free on-site walkthrough of every room. We document what exists, discuss what you want to accomplish, and deliver a fully itemized written estimate covering every room before work begins.

What Affects the Final Cost

Number of BathroomsAdding a second or third bathroom to the scope adds $18,000–$35,000 per bath depending on size and finish level. Doing all baths at once saves versus doing them separately.
Basement ScopeA basic basement finish adds $25,000–$45,000. Adding a bathroom, wet bar, or egress windows increases that range. Full suite basements run $75,000–$120,000+.
Flooring and FinishesReplacing flooring throughout the main floor and basement at once saves on labor. Hardwood adds cost vs. LVP. Wide-plank and custom stain options add to material cost.
Electrical and PlumbingHomes built before 1990 often need panel updates, galvanized water line replacement, or GFCI upgrades. We assess these during the estimate and include any needed updates as line items.

Frequently Asked Questions About Full Home Renovation Cost

All our pricing includes both labor and mid-range finish materials across every scope. Cabinet grade, countertop material, tile selection, flooring type, and fixture brand all affect the final number. Your written estimate lists every line item for every room before work begins.
When kitchen, bathrooms, and basement are done under one contract, mobilization, permit coordination, and supervision costs are shared across all three instead of paid separately. Trades can also cover all spaces in one visit rather than returning for each project separately. That efficiency translates directly to savings of 15–20% on your total project cost.
In most cases yes, with planning. We sequence rooms so the kitchen and at least one bathroom remain usable when possible. Dust barriers, floor protection, and daily cleanup are standard throughout. If there are phases where that is not practical, we discuss it before work begins so you can plan accordingly.
For a full home renovation, we coordinate electrical, plumbing, structural, and mechanical permits simultaneously. All are submitted to your municipality at the same time and inspected as each phase completes. Permit costs are included in your written estimate from day one. You do not manage any part of it.
