about Home Renovations
Home renovations encompass a broad range of projects aimed at improving functionality, updating systems, and modernizing living spaces throughout the house. Precision Built Construction has the experience and project-management capacity to coordinate complex, whole-house renovation projects, including structural work, system upgrades, and interior/exterior refinishing. Whether you are modernizing an older home, preparing a property for resale, or adapting living spaces to new needs, we deliver comprehensive renovation solutions.
Why home renovations matter
Whole-house or multi-room renovations address systemic issues, bring homes up to current safety and efficiency standards, and allow homeowners to tailor living environments to modern lifestyles. Renovations can correct deferred maintenance, integrate modern systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing), and ensure the home’s structure supports new uses. Done properly, home renovations improve comfort, safety, and long-term value while aligning spaces with present and future needs.
Key benefits of a professionally managed home renovation
Integrated coordination of trades to reduce risk and maintain timelines
One contractor accountable for the scope and quality of multiple project phases
Expert assessment and remediation of structural or system deficiencies
Opportunity to implement energy-saving measures and modern code upgrades
Thoughtful sequencing to minimize homeowner disruption during construction
Common home renovation types
Whole-house modernizations
Updating finishes, systems, and layout throughout the home.
Structural remediation
Addressing foundation, framing, or moisture-related issues.
System upgrades
Electrical service, HVAC replacement, plumbing repiping, insulation improvement.
Exterior renovations
Siding replacement, roof repairs, window and door upgrades.
Historic preservation
Careful updates that respect historic elements while modernizing systems.
Our renovation approach
01
Comprehensive assessment
We begin with a thorough evaluation to document existing conditions — structural elements, systems conditions, and areas of concern. This assessment informs accurate budgeting and sequencing.
02
Scope development and phasing plan
Large projects are phased for budgetary control and homeowner convenience. We outline stages, schedule impacts, and dependencies.
03
Design & engineering coordination
For structural changes or code upgrades, we coordinate with engineers and architects to produce safe, permit-ready documentation.
04
Permits and compliance
We manage permit submissions, required inspections, and any specialized testing needed for systems work.
05
Construction management
Detailed scheduling, site supervision, and quality checks ensure consistent execution across trades and phases.
06
Commissioning and documentation
We provide testing and inspection reports for systems work, final sign-offs, and maintenance documentation for the homeowner.
Energy efficiency and systems modernization
Renovations are an ideal time to improve building performance:
Insulation upgrades and air-sealing reduce heating and cooling loads.
Window replacement with energy-efficient models improves comfort and lowers bills.
Efficient HVAC systems and proper ductwork sizing boost performance and indoor air quality.
Electrical service upgrades accommodate modern loads safely.
Exterior work and weatherproofing
Exterior renovations address the first line of defense against the elements. Proper siding detail, flashing, and roof systems prevent water intrusion and extend the life of the structure. We use materials suited for the local climate and install them to manufacturer specifications.
Historic homes and sensitive renovations
When working with older or historic properties, we balance preservation with modern standards. We coordinate with historical commissions as needed and employ techniques that protect original materials while improving performance.
Budgeting and contingency management
Large renovations require prudent contingency planning for unforeseen conditions. We set clear allowances and recommend staged decisions to provide control over budget while preserving design intent.

Frequently asked questions
Can you handle structural repairs discovered during renovation?
Yes. We work with structural engineers and provide remediation plans to ensure safe and code-compliant repairs.
Will I need to move out during a whole-house renovation?
Depending on scope and homeowner preference, temporary relocation may be recommended. We plan to minimize disruption and can phase work to keep parts of the home usable.
How do you manage budget overruns?
We discuss contingencies up front, provide transparent change-order processes, and give options before proceeding with work that impacts budget.
Do you handle exterior landscaping changes or just the building?
While we focus on construction and building systems, we coordinate with landscaping professionals when exterior changes affect hardscapes or site drainage.
