Full Home Remodeling in Atlanta, GA

Phase planning upfront. We sequence room by room to minimize trade conflicts — rough work before drywall, flooring before cabinets, cabinets before countertops. Weekly homeowner check-ins, written change orders for anything outside original scope, and one project manager throughout. Multi-trade projects fail when communication breaks down between contractors. Ours doesn't because there's one team accountable for all of it.

A multi-room renovation covering kitchen, two bathrooms, and flooring typically runs 10–16 weeks. A true whole-home gut renovation can take 4–6 months. Key variables: permit timing (Cobb County runs 4–6 weeks for full permits), cabinet lead times, and hidden conditions discovered during demolition. We build these variables into the schedule upfront rather than presenting an optimistic timeline we can't hit.

Both. Our core crew handles demolition, carpentry, tile, and finish work. Licensed subcontractors handle plumbing, electrical, and HVAC — the same subs we've worked with for years. You have one point of contact throughout the project, and we're responsible for all of it. If a sub causes a problem, we solve it — you don't navigate that conversation.

We stop, document with photos, and contact you before proceeding. We present options and costs, get written approval, and continue. We recommend clients budget a 10–15% contingency for this reason — hidden water damage, outdated wiring, and subfloor issues are common in Georgia homes from the 1970s–1990s. Surprises happen; how they're handled is what separates good contractors from bad ones.

It depends on scope. Multi-room renovations where we work room by room often allow living in unaffected areas. Full gut renovations — especially those affecting the only kitchen or only bathroom — are very difficult to live through. We give an honest assessment during the estimate, not an optimistic one. Some clients rent nearby for the core construction phase; it's often the right call.

We work both ways. For most projects, we walk through material selections together — cabinets, countertops, tile, flooring, hardware — using our supplier relationships and experience. For larger projects where a homeowner wants a complete design package before construction starts, we can refer designers we work well with. The distinction is: we're builders first, not designers, and we're honest about that.

We pull all required permits — typically a combination of building, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical permits depending on scope. Individual trade permits are pulled by each licensed subcontractor under their own license. We attend all required inspections — rough-in, framing, and final — so you don't coordinate anything permitting-related. In Cobb County, plan review for larger scopes can run 4–6 weeks.

One year on workmanship from project completion. Manufacturer warranties on all materials pass through to you. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance — certificates available on request. For anything that fails within the warranty period due to our work, we come back and make it right, no argument. That's not a policy statement; it's how we've built our reputation in this market.
