Whole-Home Renovation in Wentzville, Missouri

Wentzville homes and this kind of project

A whole-home renovation in Wentzville means working in the two-stories and ranches built here since 2000, so on our first visit we look at structure, wiring, plumbing, HVAC and the building envelope, before any finishes are discussed.

The housing stock here: predominantly two-story and ranch production homes from 2000 onward, with 1980s and 1990s subdivisions closer to the center and a pocket of early-twentieth-century houses downtown.

In a newer house this is personalization on a large scale, often phased.

What we find inside Wentzville homes

Kitchens from the 2000s boom share a pattern: builder oak or maple cabinets, laminate or early granite, a small island and a soffit. Primary baths have the corner tub and small shower. Both are well suited to reworking within the existing footprint, which keeps budgets reasonable.

Whole-home projects in newer Wentzville houses are about personalization: consistent flooring, upgraded kitchens and baths, finished lower levels and outdoor living, often planned together and built in phases.

What is included

A Wentzville 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 Wentzville, from Carlton Glen to Stone Meadows and historic downtown Wentzville.

What we watch for

Opening up floor plans in Wentzville 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.

Wentzville properties tend to be open subdivision lots with young trees and rear common ground, and that affects how we stage materials, where every trade, sequenced by one project lead park and how debris leaves the site.

Permits and approvals in Wentzville

In Wentzville, a whole-home renovation is reviewed by the City of Wentzville building division. What follows is full plan review and staged inspections.

Since this work shows from outside, also plan on a subdivision HOA in most newer neighborhoods. We prepare that submittal alongside the permit.

Schedule and getting to you

Most Wentzville clients see three to eight months of construction for a whole-home renovation.

We are based in Wentzville, so this is a local job for us. Site visits, material drops and mid-project questions get handled the same day.

What moves the price in Wentzville

We price whole-home renovation in Wentzville from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

• Finish level and the amount of custom millwork.
• Extent of system upgrades to electrical, plumbing and HVAC.
