He was punctual and trustworthy. He completed several projects for me. Kitchen, bath, porch, she shed, paint, base and casing, doors, flooring. I always had him return for each project since he did such a wonderful job. He exceeded my expectations and maintained the agreed budget.

"I didn’t know where to begin when it came time to pick wall colors, lighting and other choices for my new build. I knew I needed help from a professional. Holly was exactly what I was looking for. She came out to my home and walked the space with me while asking questions about my taste and gauging my style. She did a great job listening while also encouraging me to push my comfort zone. Working with Holly enhanced my project tremendously. She is truly gifted in her ability to choose colors and make them work cohesively in the space. She also helped me pick tiles, backslash and slabs which could have easily become overwhelming without her assistance. I am very grateful that I stumbled into her quaint little shop because my project turned out beautifully. I highly recommend her and will use her again in the future."

FAQs for kitchen and bathroom remodel projects in Fernley, NV

The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small project to $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.

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.

There are a few things you can do to prepare for a home remodeling project to ensure a smooth construction process. Creating a detailed budget can help you stay on track, especially with the excitement of new construction or upgrades. It’s also beneficial to map out a remodeling timeline with your contractor to have clear expectations. In addition, you’ll want to prepare the space that will be worked on ahead of time—this could be tarping furniture or entirely removing belongings from the room.

Home renovation insurance, sometimes called “dwelling under renovation coverage” or “builder’s risk insurance,” helps financially cover any damages that occur during the home renovation process. While different from typical homeowners insurance, many homeowners insurance policies already include some sort of home renovation insurance or offer it as an additional add-on. While this insurance isn’t necessary for every home remodeling project, it’s best to contact your insurance company to verify if it’s needed and what your coverage options are.
