Renovations

Cost, value added, options, and practicality are all subjects to address when considering an alteration to your home. We can answer your questions and give you an accurate estimate of the time and financial commitment of any type of renovation, addition, or special project. The Charter Custom Homes team understands the requirements from foundation to finish in such efforts, and we are well-known for our spectacular transformation of living spaces and entire homes.

Open the flow of your home's interior, extend your square footage, add another story, renovate an attic, choose an exterior facelift, make over a kitchen or bath, or convert your whole home. We can determine whether construction variances must be attained and when specialty labor is required. Then we'll build a space with the character that you choose—one that blends with the original structure or seamlessly converts the overall look of your house.

Whole House Renovations

Whole-house renovations often occur when one decides to remain in their neighborhood because of lot size, schools, or when one's home would easily adapt to expansion when families grow. Whole-house renovations generally involve every aspect of the home and include foundation changes, roofline changes, reconfiguring existing space as well as adding new space. Oftentimes doubling the size of the home is common. This type of project is a major financial investment as well as a time commitment. Our construction services combine to make whole-house renovation a seamless process to bring you a new home.

Charter Custom Homes can help you evaluate renovating a whole house or whether a new custom home would be more appropriate.

Additions

Additions is a catch all word for a lot of different types of projects. An addition can be an expansion of your kitchen off the back of your house, a new family room, or as simple as a new garage. It can also be a two-story addition with a new family room on the main floor and a new master suite above it.

Charter Custom Homes can help you evaluate the best way to add on to create your new space. There are cost differences between going up or out. Setbacks for your home may be restrictive in your neighborhood and dictate the best way of approaching your project. A variance is sometimes required for certain types of projects. Many factors play a role in decisions about additions and Charter Custom Homes can help you evaluate, navigate and guide you in this decision process.

Bathroom Remodeling

Bathrooms are often the first room chosen for remodeling in a home. As plumbing selections date themselves or wear out from daily use and space needs change from growing families, the bathroom remodel is always a big bang for your buck. Bathrooms and kitchens are the most costly areas of the home to remodel on a square-footage basis. There are several reasons for this. Expensive finishes are often chosen—tile, plumbing (behind the walls as well as in front of the walls), vanities (often more than one), countertop surfaces, showers, tubs and toilets. Specialty labor is frequently involved and coordination of the labor being required to ensure the job being completed on time and correctly. These typically small spaces require more decision making, labor, and manpower than any other room remodel, except the kitchen.
