Remodeling Designed Around the Home You Already Have
Many remodeling projects begin when the home still has a good location and strong potential, but the layout, storage, finishes, or connection between rooms no longer fits the way the household lives.
A kitchen may feel separated from the dining and living areas. Bathrooms may be outdated or short on storage. Flooring, lighting, cabinetry, and finishes may have been updated at different times and no longer feel connected. Rather than treating each room as a separate project, we look at how the spaces work together and identify where thoughtful changes can improve everyday comfort, functionality, and long-term use.
The goal is a home that feels more cohesive without losing the character and location that already make it worth keeping.
Our Design-Build Process
Consultation
We begin by reviewing your home, priorities, project goals, and the areas you want to improve.
Planning & Design
We develop layouts and coordinate cabinetry, flooring, tile, lighting, fixtures, materials, and other important project details.
Construction
Our project management and construction teams coordinate the renovation according to the approved design and project scope.
Final Details
As construction approaches completion, we review the finished spaces and address remaining details before the final walkthrough.
Kirkland includes a wide range of established neighborhoods and housing styles, from homes near Lake Washington to properties in Juanita, Finn Hill, Norkirk, Rose Hill, Houghton, and Bridle Trails. That variety creates different remodeling priorities. Some homes benefit from opening the kitchen and main living areas, while others need updated bathrooms, better storage, more consistent flooring and finishes, or a larger renovation that connects several spaces. Homes closer to the lake or on more complex sites may also require additional attention to views, exterior openings, drainage, slopes, landscaping, and how interior changes relate to the surrounding property. Our approach starts with the existing architecture, layout, natural light, and site conditions before major design decisions are made.
Structural Remodeling & Permit Planning Larger renovations can involve structural changes, additions, plumbing, mechanical systems, electrical work, or site conditions that should be understood before construction begins.
Structural Changes
Removing or relocating walls, creating larger openings, changing room layouts, modifying roof structures, or expanding the home can affect framing and other structural systems.
Reviewing these conditions during planning helps coordinate design decisions, engineering requirements, and construction scope before major work begins.
Permits & Inspections
The City of Kirkland requires permits for many residential remodeling activities, including interior remodels, adding or relocating walls, new exterior openings, structural roof work, electrical alterations, plumbing, mechanical systems, and additions.
Properties near regulated slopes, wetlands, streams, shoreline areas, or other critical areas may require additional review, so site conditions should be checked early in the planning process.

Depending on the existing structure and project scope, remodeling can include wall removal, larger openings, room reconfiguration, and other structural changes designed to improve flow and functionality.
Many do. The City of Kirkland lists interior remodels, wall changes, new exterior openings, structural work, electrical alterations, plumbing, mechanical work, and additions among projects that may require permits.
Yes. Additions can create expanded kitchens and living areas, primary suites, bedrooms, offices, guest spaces, or other living areas while connecting the new construction with the existing home.
