Innsbrook homes and this kind of project
Because Innsbrook is made up of A-frame chalets and newer lake homes, the first thing we check for a whole-home renovation here is structure, wiring, plumbing, HVAC and the building envelope, before any finishes are discussed.
The housing stock here: a-frame chalets from the 1970s onward, newer custom lake homes and condominiums, nearly all on wooded lots.
Expect a long, decision-heavy project run with a decision log and weekly meetings.
What we find inside Innsbrook homes
Chalet renovations involve vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, loft stairs, compact kitchens and baths, and often under-insulated walls. We update for year-round comfort while keeping the character.
Whole-home renovations in Innsbrook are long projects with many decisions. We assign a dedicated lead, hold scheduled weekly meetings and keep a running decision log so the process stays orderly.
What is included
For Innsbrook clients who remain in the house, we build a phased plan with a protected clean zone, a temporary kitchen and a schedule showing which rooms are out of service and when.
We take on whole-home renovation work in and around lakefront chalets and homes throughout the Innsbrook resort.
What we watch for
Opening up floor plans in Innsbrook two-story homes nearly always involves a bearing wall. Engineering, beam sizing and the load path to the foundation are built into our early budget figures.
Working on steep, wooded lakefront sites with tight access, as we do in Innsbrook, we plan access for every trade, sequenced by one project lead before the first delivery arrives.
Permits and approvals in Innsbrook
In Innsbrook, a whole-home renovation is reviewed by the Village of Innsbrook and Warren County. What follows is full plan review and staged inspections.
Exterior work in Innsbrook can also involve the resort's architectural control committee, and we put that package together for you.
Schedule and getting to you
Most Innsbrook clients see three to eight months of construction for a whole-home renovation.
Innsbrook is west on I-70 to Wright City, then south, a little over twenty minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.
What our whole-home renovation looks like
Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near Innsbrook; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.
What moves the price in Innsbrook
We price whole-home renovation in Innsbrook from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

Whole-Home Renovation in Innsbrook: common questions
How long does a whole-home renovation take in Innsbrook?
Three to eight months of construction following two to four months of design and permitting. In Innsbrook, permit review by the Village of Innsbrook and Warren County and material lead times affect the start date more than our calendar does.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a whole-home renovation in Innsbrook?
Possibly. In Innsbrook you may be dealing with the resort's architectural control committee. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
How do you handle surprises in old houses?
We investigate before pricing, carry a stated contingency and document any discovery with photos and a written change order before proceeding.
