The work is scoped against what your house actually is: its framing, its wiring vintage, whether the walls you want gone are carrying load. That assessment is what turns a rough budget into a number that holds.
Freeze-thaw cycling is the governing condition. Water that gets into masonry, grout or a roof detail expands when it freezes and widens the gap it entered through.
Permits are pulled before anything is opened up. Work done without them surfaces at resale, when an inspector flags unpermitted square footage and the sale stalls.
What the job includes
- Design and layout planning
- Permit filing and inspections
- Structural and load-bearing changes
- Electrical and plumbing rough-in
- Flooring, drywall and finish carpentry
- Final walkthrough and punch list
