Our Services
Remodeling Services Available in Stratford
Kitchen Remodeling
Your kitchen should make everyday life easier, not work against you. If you're planning a kitchen remodel Stratford homeowners can use to improve storage, workspace, lighting, appearance, or overall flow, we can coordinate the different parts of your renovation. Kitchen projects can include cabinetry, countertops, tile, flooring, plumbing, electrical work, lighting, finish work, and layout changes.
Bathroom Remodeling
A bathroom renovation can address much more than outdated finishes. We can update showers, tubs, vanities, tile, flooring, lighting, plumbing, electrical work, storage, and other parts of the room. With bathroom remodeling Stratford homeowners can rethink how the space looks and how well it functions every day.
Basement Remodeling
An unfinished or underused basement can become valuable living space. We handle basement finishing, renovations, waterproofing needs, flooring, framing, electrical and plumbing work, bathrooms, and finish work. Depending on your goals, your basement could become a family room, office, gym, guest area, finished storage space, or a combination of uses.
Whole Home Renovations
If several areas of your home need attention, we can bring them together under one coordinated renovation. We handle projects involving kitchens, bathrooms, basements, flooring, finish carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, layout changes, and updates across multiple rooms.
Window & Door Installation
If your windows or doors are outdated, difficult to operate, or simply ready for replacement, we can help. We specialize in vinyl windows but work with all types. We also install front and entry doors, interior doors, sliding glass doors, metal doors, and other residential doors.
Siding
Whether you're closer to the Housatonic River or down toward Stratford's Long Island Sound shoreline, siding plays an important role in the exterior of your home. We work with vinyl, wood, fiber cement, composite siding, and James Hardie products. Most of our work involves siding replacement, but we also take on select repairs and new-home installations.
Decks
A deck can give you a comfortable way to enjoy more of your property during Connecticut's warmer months. We build new wood and composite decks, complete deck additions and expansions, perform repairs, and work with deck railings.

A Better Way to Manage Your Renovation
Hiring a renovation contractor Stratford homeowners can trust means finding someone to manage more than construction.
Remodeling can involve material decisions, schedules, specialized trades, permits, inspections, and different phases of work that need to happen in the right order. You shouldn’t be responsible for figuring all of that out yourself.
We start with a consultation to learn what you’d like to accomplish, your budget, timeline, and scope of work. From there, we prepare a detailed proposal so you understand what is included before construction begins.
When specialized trades are required, we coordinate with qualified professionals and remain your primary point of contact. If permits are needed, we can also help coordinate the process with the appropriate local authorities and professionals.
