A whole home remodel can come in many different forms. It can include updating all of your finishes, adding square footage, or creating an open floor plan by removing or moving walls and reworking your home's layout. A whole home remodel can also include replacing your HVAC system, updating your electrical and plumbing lines, and renovating the exterior of your home. The possibilities and options are nearly endless!
When do homeowners in the Battle Ground, Washington, area choose to remodel their entire home? Your home may be dated or the floor plan is awkward or inconvenient. Your family may be growing and space is getting tight. Perhaps you bought your home years ago and have wanted to mold it to your family's needs for quite some time.

We value collaboration and ensuring our client's needs are at the center of the process, making for the best home remodeling experience possible. To help you feel prepared, we've answered some of the most common questions from homeowners like you.
Why is home remodeling important?
Your home is a major part of your everyday life. Too little space, too few bathrooms, old finishes, poor energy efficiency, and other issues will affect your mood, overall quality of life, and the amount you spend on utilities every year. When you think about what would make your life at home more comfortable and with a style that represents your tastes, what does it look like? If it's not how your current home looks now, a whole home remodel could deliver that vision. Expand your kitchen, add outdoor living space, update your finishes, and more with a whole home remodel!
Is it better to remodel all at once?
A whole home remodel may seem like a large investment. What many homeowners don't know is that remodeling your whole home can actually bring down the price per square foot. The cost to only remodel parts of your home at a time will result in a higher overall price when it's all said and done. Undergoing one remodel rather than a few over the course of several years will also cause less disruption to your everyday life.
How much does a whole home remodel cost in Vancouver, Washington?
A whole home remodel can cost, on average, from $120,000-$180,000 in the Portland metro area and Clark County. Compare this to a kitchen remodel cost of $75,000-$120,000 and you can see how completing the project all at once is a more economically-sound decision. To learn more about how much your unique whole remodel could cost, get in touch with us and we'll learn about your goals to give you a clearer picture.
How long does a whole home remodel take?
Because whole home remodels can be incredibly varied, the answer is 'it depends.' The size of your home and the scope of work will be the most critical drivers in determining your timeline. However, to give you an average range, a whole home remodel could take from 6 to 10 months for a smaller home and 9 to 15 months for a larger home. This is a good starting point for understanding your possible timeline, but we advise contacting us to get a better understanding of where your home remodel will fall in these ranges.
