"Excellent! My home was outdated and then apparently had some issues with how the plumbing and electric were originally installed causing problems. I was fearful of ending up with overpriced subpar work and then being stuck! None of this with Yankee Southern.. from the beginning they were clear with what could and should be done and how to approach things from the most practical, efficient and beautiful way. Everything looks better than I had even imagined and I feel secure knowing it was done correctly and I won’t have problems in the future. I am very pleased."

"Excellent. I needed to convert a tiny bathroom with tub, and a bedroom, into a larger bathroom with walk-in shower and a laundry room. Thay engaged an engineer to move a wall, and the result will help me age-in-place in comfort and safety. Throughout the process the workers were pleasant, respectful of my space and needs, and helpful in many unexpected ways. Having heard many remodeling horror stories I was pleasantly surprised by their efforts to make the process as clean and easy as possible."

Our Home Office is based out of Farragut Tennesse (West Knoxville Area). We are a company that delivers quality for the right price. We offer all forms of Interior / Exterior residential remodeling. Licensed / Insured. EXTRA 5% OFF labor for returning Angie's List members
"Our master bathroom remodeling went extremely well. Jeff Wellman and his team of Nate and Tom started on the date promised, showed up on time every day, and completed the project as scheduled. Jeff was a big help in providing practical advise on where to locate the vanity, transom windows, shower, tub, lighting, etc. His years of experience lent itself to making sure everything looked professional and cohesive. Jeff and team aren't afraid to venture into new territory. The LVT floor we picked out was one they hadn't installed before, but they studied and followed the directions to the letter and it looks fantastic. Also the freestanding whirlpool/air bathtub we bought was one they hadn't encountered. It didn't matter as they figured it out quickly and installed it perfectly. Wellman Custom Remodeling handled our project as almost turnkey including: painting the room, installing transom windows, vanities, floor, electrical, exhaust fan, drywall repair, and tiling, Jeff handled the subcontracting of the plumbing and glass installation for the shower. The only outside contractor was Mega Granite who measured and installed the granite under Jeff's guidance. We are very proud of our new bathroom and we're enjoying it very much!"

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.
Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
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.

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.
