Whole-Home Renovation in Ellisville, MO

Ellisville homes and this kind of project

Our first visit for a whole-home renovation in Ellisville is spent on structure, wiring, plumbing, HVAC and the building envelope, before any finishes are discussed, which tells us how ranches and two-stories from the 1960s through the 1980s were put together.

The housing stock here: 1960s to 1980s ranches and two-stories with some newer construction.

A 100-amp service, aging drains and original ducts are renewed while the plan is opened up.

What we find inside Ellisville homes

Closed floor plans and original bathrooms are usual. Removing a kitchen wall typically calls for an engineered beam.

Houses of this age in Ellisville frequently have 100-amp electrical service, aging drain lines and original ductwork. A whole-home renovation lets us renew all of it at once while opening the floor plan.

What is included

A Ellisville whole-home renovation with us covers assessment, master planning, design, engineering, permits, demolition, structural changes, mechanical system upgrades, insulation, drywall, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, trim, paint and exterior work as required.

We take on whole-home renovation work across Ellisville, from the Bluebird Park area to neighborhoods near Clarkson and Manchester roads.

What we watch for

Depending on when it was built, a Ellisville home may have an undersized electrical service, aging supply piping or original ductwork that never balanced properly. We inspect all three before design begins.

Site logistics matter: Ellisville has shaded, established lots, so we agree with you where every trade, sequenced by one project lead will park, store material and carry out debris.

Permits and approvals in Ellisville

For a whole-home renovation at a Ellisville address, the paperwork goes to the City of Ellisville. Expect full plan review and staged inspections.

Exterior work in Ellisville can also involve older subdivision trustees, and we put that package together for you.

Whole-Home Renovation in Ellisville: common questions

How long does a whole-home renovation take in Ellisville?

Three to eight months of construction following two to four months of design and permitting. For Ellisville we group trade visits to keep that schedule tight despite the drive.

Do I need approval beyond a permit for a whole-home renovation in Ellisville?

Possibly. In Ellisville you may be dealing with older subdivision trustees. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.

Renovate or tear down and rebuild?

If the foundation and framing are sound and the layout can be adapted, renovation is usually less expensive and keeps your setbacks and mature lot. We give you an honest comparison.
