We called to arrange a meeting and were asking for a bid from this remodeler for a total master bathroom remodel with a tentative budget of 45K. We explained we had 2 other contractors bidding on project. Our impression was that contractor was somewhat off put to have to be taking time to compete for a project. He was certainly not as friendly as others we had dealt with. Perhaps this remodeler is already very busy and our project was not large enough to warrant a lot of attention, but they did agree to come out. We did not use a designer but already had selected and provided all of the finishes for the bathroom and had design. Surpass did come to our home and we walked through our project. After about 2 weeks we did get an email but unlike our other contractors who provided a detailed estimate all we got was a number in our email from surpass. They were higher than the other contractors but we did expect that going in. The problem was it took several days to get a response to any attempt at communication, whether text message, email or call. I always got voicemail. I asked to meet by both text and voicemail to discuss the estimate in more detail as I was told they had 9 page cost study prepared, but I never heard back and never received this cost study. After I called and texted to ask to meet and waited two weeks without response we really just decided that for whatever reason we were not really a priority for this remodeler and moved along.

FAQs for residential design projects in Cascade, MI
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
