Whole-home remodeling in Tampa

For a single kitchen or bathroom, almost always yes. We'll set up a temporary kitchen and seal the work area. For a full-home remodel with the water off, it's usually easier to move out for part of it. We'll be straight with you about which one you're in.

Kitchen and bath remodels involving plumbing, electrical, or structural work require permits from either the City of Tampa or Hillsborough County depending on where you live. We pull them, schedule the inspections, and the cost appears as a line item in your proposal. Plan review typically takes one to three weeks.

We stop, photograph it, price it, and bring you a written change order before anyone touches it. No verbal change orders and no surprise invoices. It happens on roughly one in three older Tampa homes, and it's the main reason your final number can move.

Usually because his number is missing three lines: the permit, demolition and haul-off, and a real materials allowance instead of a placeholder. Ours shows all three separately so you can compare like with like. Sometimes the cheaper bid is genuinely the right call — but you should know what's in it before you sign.

No. We come out, measure, listen, and give you a real number. If your budget and the project don't line up, we'll tell you that in the driveway rather than after you've spent three weeks waiting on a proposal.
