Remodeling can look very different from one home to another. For a more focused project, the room or area involved usually points you in the right direction.
A kitchen remodel may involve changes to the layout, cabinets, countertops, surfaces, fixtures, or how the room functions day to day.
Basement remodeling focuses on improving or finishing existing basement space so it can serve a more useful purpose in the home.
An existing garage can be converted into interior living space when you want the area to serve a different purpose.
Aging-in-place remodeling focuses on changes that can make a home safer and easier to use over time.
Bathroom remodeling can include full renovations, layout changes, and other improvements focused on how the room looks and functions.
If you’re planning changes across several rooms, broader remodeling services can cover projects that extend beyond one specific space.
REMODELING
A remodel usually works with the space your home already has. You might rework a kitchen, renovate several rooms, finish a basement, change the floor plan, or give an existing area a different purpose.
A remodel can still involve substantial construction. Walls, openings, framing, and other parts of the home may need to change.
ADDITION
An addition creates new square footage.
If you’re extending the home for a larger kitchen, adding a new bathroom, building another bedroom, or creating a new living area, the project moves beyond remodeling the existing footprint.
If your plans involve expanding the home, our contractor services cover larger construction and addition projects.
Some remodels focus mostly on finishes. Others change the way the space itself is arranged.
The project can become more involved when you want to:
Changes like these can affect parts of the home that aren’t immediately visible.
A wall you want to remove, for example, may be supporting the structure above it. A larger opening or different room configuration may require new framing. Moving fixtures can also affect other parts of the project.
When structural work becomes part of a renovation, load-bearing wall removal or structural framing may become part of the overall scope.
The best place to start is with the change you want to make and the result you’re trying to achieve.
Two homeowners can both be planning a kitchen remodel and still have very different projects.
Replacing finishes while keeping the existing layout is different from moving walls, changing openings, or rearranging major fixtures. A single-room renovation is also different from a project connecting the kitchen, dining room, and living area.
Before reaching out, it helps to have a few basic details in mind:
Rooms or Areas
The rooms or areas you want to change.
Current Problems
What isn’t working well in the current space.
Finished Result
What you want the finished space to do differently.
Layout Changes
Whether you expect the layout to change.
Existing Conditions
Any existing damage or conditions you already know about.
Ideas & References
Photos, sketches, plans, or ideas you already have.
You don’t need to have every finish picked out or a full set of plans ready before reaching out. If you have a general idea of what you want to change and which parts of your home are involved, that’s a good place to start.
The amount of local planning involved depends on what you’re changing.
Some projects may involve zoning review through the City of Concord, along with building permits or inspections through Cabarrus County.
Straightforward interior updates may have different requirements from projects involving larger alterations.
Work that changes walls or affects the structure can involve different planning, permit, or inspection requirements.
Properties within one of Concord’s regulated historic districts can have additional review requirements when work changes the exterior appearance of the home.
Mike’s Home Repair has served homeowners since 2008. Our residential work includes everything from smaller repairs and remodeling to structural projects, additions, exterior work, and new-home construction.
That broader range can be helpful because some home projects grow or change as the plan comes together. A remodel might stay within the existing layout, while another project may involve structural changes or even adding more space.
What matters most is what you want the finished result to be. If you’re not sure which type of service fits, just tell us what you’d like to change and we can start from there.
Maybe you want one room to function differently. Maybe several parts of the house need to work better together. Or you may already have plans and a clear picture of the finished result.
Start with what you know.
Tell us which areas of your home are involved, what you want to change, and what you’d like the finished space to be like. If you have photos, sketches, or plans, they can help explain what you have in mind.
