Robin Renovation believes in more than just construction. Family-owned and operated, we pride ourselves on producing a truly quality product, maintaining open and honest interactions with all customers, and empowering our employees to succeed both on and off the job site. While we specialize in bathroom and kitchen remodels, we offer full-service framing or finish carpentry, including tiling, drywall, window/door projects, cabinets, etc. overseen by formally-trained Journeyman carpenters with decades of on-the-job experience. The mission of Robin Renovation is to hire and train people of all backgrounds and to provide them with wages that will support home ownership and with the skills necessary to turn fixer uppers into dream homes. To us, community comes before profit, and we work hard to cultivate a work culture that encourages each employee to do things the right way and never to cut corners. We promise you will not find another remodeling company that cares about your home as much as we do. We’d be honored to work with you, so please reach out to us.

"We are so happy that we went with Isaiah and his team at Robin Renovation! The projects included new hardwood flooring in two rooms and on stairs, gas fireplace insert replacement, lots of tiling and drywall. All of the employees who came to our home did exceptional work along with being communicative, tidy and patient with our dogs. I received continual updates from scheduling manager Jodi who kept meticulous details about all of the simultaneous projects. The cost of the work was well worth it the quality. I highly recommended Robin Renovation for anyone needing renovations!"

We take great pride in our experience, expertise, quality and customer service, that we provide to meet the consumer's needs. It is our mission to provide excellent workmanship, and complete customer satisfaction, from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate, with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety and quality, regardless of how large, or small the job. Call us today!

"Levcor has truly surpassed our expectations with its exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to bringing our vision of a dream kitchen to life. What began as a casual conversation a few years ago has now become a reality, thanks to their deep knowledge of kitchen functionality, and their ability to see what the end result can be throughout the design process. Their meticulous attention to detail and dedication helped us make the most of our space and create a design we could never have imagined. Working alongside Mike Sawyer has been a remarkable experience. He perfectly balanced our aspirations with our budget, making the entire process seamless. Mike's guidance empowered us to explore various design options, reimagining our space while staying within our scope and budget. His foresight even saved us a significant amount on kitchen cabinet costs due to an impending 30% lumber price increase. Despite their extensive experience, Levcor maintains the warmth and attentiveness of a family-run business. Their genuine care and responsiveness echoed throughout every interaction and made us feel valued and understood at every stage of the project. Furthermore, the professionalism displayed by both the business owner and the contractors was commendable. Their commitment to delivering outstanding results while maintaining efficiency was evident in the timely completion of our project. The attention to detail was truly exceptional, blending functionality with aesthetics to create a kitchen that not only met but exceeded our expectations, taking a disjointed space and helping redefine it. What started as a small, cramped kitchen, is now an expansive space for baking or a casual meal and a conversation. We went from a glass cooktop and single electric oven to a 5-burner gas range, double oven, and even a proofing/warming drawer. In summary, Mike's exemplary work ethic, expertise, and genuine care make him an outstanding contractor. For anyone considering a significant home renovation project, like a kitchen remodel, Levcor's proficiency and personal touch promise a transformative experience, resulting in a space you'll treasure for years to come. Trust me on this, as our remodeled kitchen has provided my wife with the perfect 9-foot island to launch her small gluten-free baking business."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.

In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.

Create a checklist, reimagine the space use, set a realistic budget, choose materials and aesthetic details, and get professional support for guidelines and troubleshooting.
