Home Remodel Process

At Vella Custom Homes, we take pride in delivering exceptional home remodels that enhance both the functionality and beauty of your existing space. Whether you’re looking to remodel a single room or undertake a full home renovation, we ensure that every aspect of your remodeling project is handled with care and precision. From the initial consultation to the finishing touches, our goal is to maximize your investment and deliver a remodeled home that fits your lifestyle perfectly. If you are currently working with an architect or designer on your bathroom remodel, we would be happy to provide an estimate for you.

Initial Consultation

The first step in any home remodel is a detailed consultation. We meet with homeowners to discuss the scope of the remodeling projects, whether decide to reconfigure your bedroom floorplan, upgrading bathrooms, or a complete home renovation. During this phase, we listen to your ideas, understand your needs, and identify the best way to transform your existing space into one that better serves your family. We also assess how your home remodeling project can increase energy efficiency, improve resale value, and offer long-term benefits.

For example, if you’re focused on a kitchen remodel, we discuss upgrading kitchen cabinets, countertops, and appliances, while keeping an eye on both aesthetics and practicality. Similarly, for a bathroom remodel, we explore options like installing new light fixtures, upgrading sinks and bathtubs, and optimizing the bathroom layout to ensure that the space is functional, cost-effective, and stylish.

Estimating Process

After the consultation and walk-through, we provide a detailed estimate for the entire home remodeling project. Unlike a simple per square foot estimate, our approach considers every aspect of the project, including the materials, fixtures, labor, and time involved. This gives you a more accurate understanding of the home remodeling costs, ensuring there are no surprises along the way.

Have an idea for a steeper roof pitch or moving a wall as part of your renovation project? These can be great ideas but need to be factored into the overall cost. By planning carefully and understanding your budget, we help homeowners make informed decisions that align with both their financial goals and design preferences.

Design and Planning

Once the estimate is approved, we move on to the design and planning stage. Our design team works closely with you to create a layout that maximizes your room while incorporating modern touches that enhance both functionality and style. Whether it’s designing custom kitchen cabinets, planning the perfect bathroom, or adding extra storage and energy-efficient features, we focus on creating a renovation that not only looks great but also serves your everyday needs.

This phase also includes selecting materials such as flooring, doors, countertops, and paint colors. Our goal is to help you choose finish materials that not only fit your budget but also stand the test of time, ensuring you won’t have to spend extra money on repairs or replacements in the long run.

Permits and Approvals

Securing the proper permits is a key aspect of any home remodeling project. Whether you’re removing walls, expanding rooms, or upgrading fixtures, we ensure that all necessary permits are in place and that the project complies with local building codes. We handle this process to avoid any costly delays or issues, giving you peace of mind that your home remodel is on track and up to code.

Site Preparation

Before beginning construction, we carefully prepare the site to protect your home and minimize disruption to your daily life. This may involve setting up dust barriers, relocating furniture, and safeguarding areas around your house. Our team works efficiently to ensure that the remodeling project causes as little inconvenience as possible to your family.

Construction Process

The construction phase is where your home remodel truly begins to take shape. Depending on the scope of the project, this can involve anything from removing and replacing walls, installing new doors and windows, upgrading an appliance, or reconfiguring entire rooms. We take pride in using high-quality materials and craftsmanship to ensure that your home remodeling project is completed to the highest standards.

For example, during a kitchen renovation, we may install quartz countertops, upgrade cabinetry, and add new appliances to create a modern, efficient kitchen. In a bathroom remodel, we might update the sink, bathtub, and light fixtures, while improving the overall layout to create a more functional space.

We also focus on adding features that boost energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness over time. New windows, better insulation, and updated heating and cooling systems can make a significant difference in your utility bills while increasing the overall comfort of your home.

Finishing Touches

As we near the end of the construction phase, we shift our attention to the finishing touches. This includes installing final fixtures, painting walls, and adding any custom design elements that make your home feel complete. Whether it’s choosing the perfect paint color or selecting high-quality cabinet hardware, we make sure every detail is polished and aligned with your vision.

These finishing touches can make a dramatic difference in the remodeled space, giving it that professional and high-end feel that homeowners expect from Vella Custom Homes.

Final Walkthrough and Handover

Once the remodel is complete, we conduct a final walkthrough to ensure that everything is up to your standards. During this walkthrough, we review all the work completed, from light fixtures and appliances to paint and countertops. We ensure that each detail has been executed flawlessly and that you’re completely satisfied with the result.

We also provide you with tips on maintaining your newly remodeled space so that it stays in great condition for years to come. We only consider the project complete once you are fully satisfied and ready to enjoy your beautifully remodeled home.
