Taking your home down to the studs is a big move. We’d want a plan first too. So we come to you. We walk the house, listen to what you want, and write it all down.
Let’s Get Your Plan Done While You Wait
We know permits in DC can take 3 to 6 months or more. Nobody likes the wait. So we start now. We walk your home, listen to what you want, and put your plan on paper. When the permit comes through, you’re ready to build.
What A Gut Renovation Can Include
Every home is different. A gut renovation can include:
- ✓ Demolition down to the framing
- ✓ Layout and structural changes
- ✓ New plumbing and electrical
- ✓ Insulation, drywall and finishes
- ✓ Permits and inspections handled for you

Is This Right For Your Project?
This is for you if:
- ✓ You’re planning a full gut renovation of a DC home or rowhouse
- ✓ You just bought a home that needs everything redone

This is not for you if you want:

We take on big projects, the kind that need permits and a full plan first. If yours is a smaller job, we’ll tell you straight and point you somewhere better.
