What You Get When We're Done

Your home works better. That’s what matters when the dust settles and we pack up our tools.

You get rooms that actually function the way you need them to. Kitchens where you can cook without fighting cabinet doors that won’t close. Bathrooms where the shower pressure doesn’t drop to a trickle when someone flushes the toilet. Basements that stay dry when it rains.

The repairs stick. The additions look like they’ve always been part of your house. And you’re not calling us back in six months because something we did fell apart. When you hire a general contractor in Village of the Branch who knows what they’re doing, your home improvement project becomes an investment that pays you back in comfort and value for years.

What's Included in Your Project

You get comprehensive general contractor services from planning through cleanup. We handle kitchen and bathroom renovations, room additions, basement finishing, roofing repairs, siding replacement, and structural work.

Each project includes proper permits, quality materials from local suppliers, and skilled tradespeople who know their craft. We coordinate plumbing, electrical, and HVAC work so you’re not juggling multiple contractors and trying to figure out who’s responsible when something doesn’t line up right.

Village of the Branch homes often need updates to electrical systems, plumbing, or insulation when we’re doing renovation work. We spot these issues early and give you options for addressing them while we’re already working on your house. It’s more efficient and less disruptive than having multiple projects spread out over months.

How long do most home renovation projects take to complete?

Timeline depends on the scope of work and permit approval process in Village of the Branch. A bathroom renovation typically takes 2-3 weeks once we start. Kitchen remodels run 4-6 weeks depending on cabinet delivery and appliance installation. Room additions or major structural work can take 2-3 months. We give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. Weather, permit delays, or unexpected issues like outdated wiring can add time, but we’ll explain what’s happening and adjust the schedule accordingly.
Yes, we pull all necessary permits and schedule required inspections with Village of the Branch building department. This includes structural, electrical, plumbing, and final inspections depending on your project scope. We know local building codes and what inspectors look for, so work passes inspection the first time. You don’t need to figure out permit requirements or take time off work for inspection appointments. We handle the paperwork and coordinate with town officials so your project stays on schedule and meets all local regulations.
Our estimates break down materials, labor, permits, and timeline so you know exactly what you’re paying for. We list specific materials we’ll use, not generic descriptions like “quality fixtures.” You’ll see costs for demolition, construction, electrical and plumbing work, and cleanup. We include a realistic completion date and explain what could affect the timeline. If we discover issues like outdated wiring or structural problems during the project, we discuss options and costs before proceeding. No surprise charges or vague line items that leave you guessing what you actually bought.
Yes, we’re fully licensed as a general contractor in New York State and carry comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. This protects you if someone gets injured on your property or if our work causes damage to your home. We can provide proof of insurance and licensing before starting any project. Many contractors skip proper licensing and insurance to keep costs down, but that leaves homeowners exposed to serious financial risk. Our insurance and licensing costs are built into our pricing so you get protection without surprises.
We discuss potential issues during the initial assessment and build reasonable contingencies into project timelines. When we find unexpected problems like water damage, outdated electrical systems, or structural issues, we stop work and explain your options with associated costs before proceeding. You approve any additional work in writing before we continue. Most cost overruns happen because contractors don’t properly assess projects upfront or don’t communicate when issues arise. We’d rather spend extra time planning and explaining potential problems than surprise you with bills after work is done.
