Whole-House Remodeling Under One Schedule and One Accountable Team
Whether you have bought an older home with a layout that no longer works or want to modernize the home you already love, Level 5 Builders helps you plan the renovation as one coordinated project.
From structural changes and mechanical upgrades to kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, and finish work, we bring the pieces together under a dedicated project manager, a documented scope, and a clear budget.
Proudly serving Alpharetta, Roswell, Milton, Johns Creek, Marietta, Kennesaw, Decatur, Fayetteville, and Peachtree City. Project availability and property feasibility are confirmed during consultation.
Why Plan Your Whole Home Together?
You could remodel the kitchen now, renovate a bathroom next year, and revisit the floors later. But separate projects can mean repeated disruption, overlapping work, and paying again for some site setups and trade mobilizations.
A coordinated renovation gives us an opportunity to plan the house as a complete system. We can align structural changes, mechanical work, inspections, drywall, and finishes rather than repeatedly opening and repairing the same areas.
Bundling work may improve efficiency, but the amount depends on the scope and the home. We will explain those opportunities in your proposal rather than promise a universal savings percentage.
Great Bones Deserve Thoughtful Modernization
An older home can have a wonderful location and an appealing character while needing improvements to its layout and systems. Our goal is to preserve what works and address what does not through a coordinated plan.
Opening closed-off floor plans: We evaluate load-bearing walls and the structure above and below them, coordinating engineering and temporary support where required before creating larger openings.
Preparing floors for continuous finishes: We inspect and address uneven or damaged subfloors within the agreed scope. Joist repairs, reinforcement, and leveling methods depend on the structure and the flooring requirements.
Plumbing and electrical updates: When walls are open, we evaluate the condition and capacity of accessible systems. Pipe replacement, panel upgrades, new circuits, and surge protection are included when specified in the project scope and permitted as required.
Windows, insulation, and exterior improvements: We can coordinate window replacements, insulation upgrades, and siding work with the interior renovation. Product selection and installation details are tailored to the home; energy savings are not guaranteed.
Surface preparation and finish craftsmanship: We plan drywall repairs, ceiling work, trim, and paint as part of the overall renovation. Level 5 finishing is specified where appropriate to achieve a smooth surface under demanding lighting conditions.
What Does a Whole-House Remodel Really Cost?
“Whole-house remodeling” can describe a main-level update or a much more extensive structural and mechanical renovation. The number of rooms, size of the home, condition of existing systems, level of finish, and occupancy plan all influence the investment.
These preliminary Level 5 planning ranges were supplied by the business. They help frame an initial conversation; they are not quotations for every home.
Main-level transformation: kitchen, living areas, and flooring
Investment Range: $95,000–$155,000
Estimated Construction Window: 8–12 weeks
Scope: Kitchen renovation and specified structural openings; powder room updates; ceiling and lighting work; continuous new or refinished flooring; doors and trim; and interior paint within the defined areas.
Comprehensive multi-room overhaul: kitchen, bathrooms, and selected systems
Investment Range: $155,000–$260,000
Estimated Construction Window: 12–18 weeks
Scope: Main-level work plus a primary bathroom and specified additional bathrooms; staircase, fireplace, laundry or mudroom improvements; and electrical or other system upgrades expressly included in the proposal.
Full gut-to-studs structural renovation and exterior refresh
Investment Range: $260,000–$450,000+
Estimated Construction Window: 18–28+ weeks
Scope: Extensive interior demolition and layout changes; specified plumbing, electrical, and HVAC replacement; insulation; window and siding work; and new kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, trim, and finishes.
Construction windows begin after required approvals and material readiness. Design, procurement, permitting, inspections, concealed conditions, and the need to work around occupied rooms can affect the full project schedule.
A Defined Scope and a Clear Change Process
A large renovation should begin with a room-by-room scope, documented selections, allowances, and exclusions. We explain what the agreed price includes and how proposed changes will be handled.
Owner-requested upgrades, concealed conditions, and required corrections are addressed through the construction agreement's change process. Our commitment is clarity and documentation, not a blanket promise that an older home contains no surprises.
One Project Manager. One Coordinated Schedule.
Logical trade sequencing: Your project manager coordinates demolition, framing, rough mechanical work, inspections, drywall, and finish trades so the work follows the agreed plan.
Planning around occupancy: Before construction, we discuss whether you can remain in the home, need a temporary kitchen, or should relocate for part of the work. Safety, utilities, access, and the scope determine the recommendation.
Clear communication: We plan regular updates about completed work, upcoming decisions, scheduling changes, and any scope or budget items that need your attention.
Frequently Asked Questions About Whole-House Remodeling
We are buying an older home. When should we contact you?
An early walkthrough during due diligence or before your planned renovation can help you understand likely scope and budget considerations. It does not replace a home inspection or specialist evaluations, and concealed conditions may require further investigation. Construction start dates depend on approvals, final scope, materials, and availability.
Can we live in the house during a whole-house remodel?
Sometimes. A phased renovation may allow you to keep bedrooms, a bathroom, and essential utilities available while other rooms are being worked on. Extensive demolition, loss of safe access, or interruptions to water and power may make temporary relocation the better option. We discuss the trade-offs before scheduling work.
How much can we save by combining the kitchen, bathrooms, and floors?
Coordinating projects can reduce repeated setup, deliveries, and some trade mobilizations, and it can avoid doing the same preparation work twice. Savings vary by scope and property. We compare the practical options in your proposal rather than apply a guaranteed percentage.
Do we have to select every finish before the first conversation?
No. Start with your priorities, the spaces you want to change, and a preliminary investment range. We help identify the structural and mechanical decisions first, then coordinate selections and allowances before the construction scope is finalized.
