Our business specializes in bathroom and kitchen remodeling since 2000. We offer a range of products where the customer is in charge of the design process. For our bathrooms we offer our beautiful Bella stone acrylic walls, walk-in tubs with no cutting of doorways (faster installation), and tile. For Kitchens we offer a range of options for cabinets, countertops, and backsplashes. Our business is family owned and operated. We have been in business for 21 years in the Raleigh and surrounding areas. Our father and son team have over 30 years experience in the renovations business. We strive to provide great customer service and love helping our customers visions become a reality.

"This company has some of the rudest and most disrespectful people working there. Veronica and Jessica should not be in customer facing positions. The bathroom remodel was done well, but the tile installer needs a bit more attention to details. We still do not have glass and had to call the glass company last week directly for an update as they were not being provided by New York Renovations. NY Reno kept stating there’s a delay and timing is estimated. However, Glass Depot told us the deposit was never paid and that was 7 weeks after they came out for a template. Just called the glass company again for the first time since early last week after continued vague updates from NY Reno. One very helpful person told me that NY Reno just paid the deposit via ACH earlier this week and that they’d call back after asking around for a timing update. Never heard back, so I called again but was told that NY Reno had instructed Glass Depot to not speak with me. The woman at Glass Depot specifically said she was told by NY Reno to not discuss any financial information but could confirm that “the glass has been ordered”. However, when I called last week, that same person at Glass Depot said the deposit was not made and glass had not been ordered. Meanwhile, for weeks, NY Reno was providing random updates about our glass saying they haven’t heard from the glass company, or that it’s just one more panel to come in. Those seem to be false as well as the “receipt” they emailed which was a text only document on Microsoft Word (not images). I’m sure NY Reno will reply to this and say they have gone above and beyond to make us happy. Or, try to put the blame on us and call us rude for following up directly with their vendor, but we have plenty of emails and an outrageous to show this. Plus, a bizarre phone call from Veronica where she berated me by saying that I picked the wrong person to mess with, calling me insane, etc. Update: After I left a review on Google, Veronica from NY Reno emailed stating that they will no longer be in contact or respond to any form of communication until there is a glass install date. She also continued the false line of allegations regarding harassment. Their response to this review, negative criticism, and a customer pushing for concrete updates speaks volumes."

In Business Since 2020 Sean Bahr is your home design expert and remodeler in the Raleigh-Durham-Cary area. We pride ourselves on our extreme professionalism and attention to detail. Our customer satisfaction guarantee will assure you we will not leave your property until you are completely satisfied with our work. As a family owned and operated business, you can trust that we will treat your home as we would treat our own. Give us a call today! We look forward to working with you!

"My husband and I had such a pleasant experience with Rapt Homes, so we just wanted to share a bit here. We recently experienced a broken garbage disposal under our kitchen sink. We did not find the leak right away, so significant damage was done to the cabinetry. The bottom collapsed from the water damage, and we were left with a completely non-functioning space. Rapt Homes was able to rebuild the foundation of the cabinet, prime, paint, and install sliding drawers for ease of use. The work was completed in just a few hours, and the kitchen was left just as clean as when the work began. We love our new cabinet space. Our only wish is that we had opted to do the work sooner, as we thought that it would be a bigger undertaking than it was. We also opted to have renderings done for both our kitchen and basement. They are two spaces that we have always wanted to improve, but have been apprehensive to take on such big projects. The plans are simply beautiful, and we are sure that the new rooms will bring us such peace in our home. Firstly, we are looking at completely remodeling our kitchen, as it lacks functionality, and is outdated by any standard. We discussed our every wish with Sean at Rapt Homes, and not a single detail was missed. My husband is a chef, and the kitchen will be worthy of his talents, and we anticipate entertaining more than we ever have before in a space that we can be so proud of. The designs took our breath away, seeing our dreams come to light. We both saved each picture to our phones as a reminder of what the future holds. We also had Sean design a full basement remodel for us, taking advantage of the space that merely serves as storage and laundry. It will be a beautiful space for ourselves and for guests, including an additional bathroom. The juxtaposition between our upstairs and our basement in the summertime is one of our biggest motivators, as the basement is so comfortably cool, and completely unutilized. Once again, we gave our input on exactly what we are hoping to do with the space, and the designs did not disappoint. We are elated to know that one day soon, we'll have an entire second living space, something that we've been wanting since we purchased our home ten years ago. 2026 will be a year of vast improvements, and bringing our home up to the standards that we have always wished for. We are more than ready to work with Sean and Rapt Homes to make our dreams a reality."

Commercial and Residential framing services in both wood and metal; drywall finishing, painting, insulation services, siding installation renovation & additions, roofing installation, carpentry, deck installation, and interior trimming. Quality is the main goal for each project performed. We are professionals at everything we do. I am a small business owner and have been in this line of work for over 20 years and in business for over 5 years

"Unfortunately I cannot rate their service, the quality of the work or price because they never sent over the estimate. They sent me an email after the walk-through letting me know that several jobs had came up and they were very busy. Apparently too busy to do an estimate and win our business. A little frustrating because we took the time out of our day to go over ideas and discuss options for our kitchen, bathrooms, etc. They even suggested that we go with another contractor if we couldn’t wait. That was over a month ago and we still haven’t heard back."

Remodel Design questions, answered by experts

A room makeover can take anywhere from a weekend to several weeks, depending on the scope. Simple projects like painting, rearranging furniture, or adding new decor may take a few days, while more extensive makeovers involving new flooring, lighting, or built-in features could take two to four weeks.

When deciding what to renovate first when remodeling a house on a budget, think about your home’s most pressing need. If you have an old kitchen that isn’t functional, you may want to start there. If you need extra living space for your growing family immediately, consider remodeling the basement first. Learning how to prioritize home improvement projects can help you stick to your budget while making improvements that give you the biggest immediate benefit.

Installing a new home theater or upgrading your current one will likely add value to your home, as many prospective buyers will consider it an exciting bonus feature. However, the value of a home theater is subjective and depends on the buyer, so there’s no guarantee that it’ll increase your home sale value. Keep in mind that home theaters typically have a return on investment rate of about 65%.

A simple cosmetic flip with minor repairs can take as little as a few weeks, while more extensive projects that involve structural changes or permit requirements can take several months. The time it takes to renovate a house ranges between three and six months, depending on factors like the extent of renovations, financing, and market conditions.

Yes, open floor plans can be more expensive to build than non-open floor plans. The primary reason is the need for additional structural support to ensure stability, which can increase construction costs. Additionally, open floor plans need powerful HVAC systems to maintain temperature in a wider space. Finally, open floor plans need more flooring to cover a large area. If you are buying a home with an open floor plan, you won’t see dramatic price differences compared to a home with more rooms.
