"My husband and I were very impressed with AMJ Construction. Anthony and his helpers took their time with removing the old doors, replacing it with the new one. They were meticulous about the work being done. The helpers were respectful and answered any questions we may of had. By the end of the job the work area was immaculate. Anthony’s assistant Tracy at the office was patient and very pleasant to work with. We will definitely hire AMJ Construction again for another project."

"From start to finish the project ran very smooth. They handled everything in a professional manner and were very clean. I was kept up to date on the progress and schedule. Change orders were discussed during the project so there were no surprises at the end. I would without hesitation hire ASB Renovations again."

"If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and hardworking contractors, Rettle Enterprise is the best choice. They have now completed two big projects for me and my family, and both times they were professional, dependable, and went absolutely above and beyond our expectations. They first added a kitchen to the lower level of our home, and more recently, they completely redid and cleaned up the mess left behind by another contractor in our downstairs bathroom. The quality of their work, attention to detail, and professionalism really stand out. I absolutely wouldn’t trust anyone else to work on our home. If we have another project in the future, Rettle Enterprise will be the first and only contractor we call. Highly recommend!"

"We were getting ready to sell my mothers home. Mike came out and gave us a very good price to remodel the main bathroom along with laying flooring in two other rooms. Very professional. Loved that this is a Father/Son company. Did I great job and would definitely be using again in the future."

"Am very happy with my new walk-in shower. Randy F. and Joe M. did a superb job replacing my old bathtub with a safer walk-in shower. They were very courteous and professional, and finished it just one day! I also want to mention your Design Consultant, Kevin G. He explained everything about the project and emphasized the safety features I needed."

Remodel Design FAQs, answered by experts

In-law suite floor plans almost always include at least one bedroom, a bathroom, and a combination kitchen/living room area or separate spaces for the kitchen and living room. Larger in-law suites built in accessory dwelling units separate from your main structure can feature multiple bedrooms, dining rooms, and entertainment rooms in addition to the necessities.

Universal design costs can be minimal when you add them during construction; however, adding universal design principles to existing homes can sometimes increase renovation costs. For example, a mid-grade bathroom remodel is estimated to cost around $30,000, while a standard universal design remodel can cost closer to $40,000. Adding accessible design components can include widening hallways ($500 to $2,000), curbless showers ($2,000 to $8,000), and widening doors ($400 to $800). Keep in mind that these increased costs can lead to higher resale values because universal homes may appeal to a wider variety of buyers.

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

You likely need to hire an architect for your new house design and build, unless you have the design skills and experience with building regulations and standards needed to get your plans approved. If you are able to meet the design requirements, you can hire a draftsperson to create the blueprints for the builders to follow.
