How a Full Remodel Unfolds

Your project begins with a walkthrough where Don Kittle Construction evaluates your current layout, identifies structural limitations, and discusses which walls can be removed or relocated. In Athens, remodeling often involves updating HVAC ductwork, adding circuits to electrical panels, and rerouting plumbing to support new bathroom or kitchen locations. You participate in material selections and layout decisions while the team manages permits, subcontractors, and construction sequencing.

When the work is finished, you walk through rooms with open sightlines, functional storage, and updated systems that no longer trigger breakers or leak under sinks. Floors sit level, doors close properly, and lighting reaches every corner of the room instead of leaving dark zones.

Projects are phased to keep certain rooms usable while others are under construction, and temporary barriers control dust and noise. The timeline depends on how much structural work is involved, but you receive milestone updates and clear communication throughout. This remodel does not require you to pack up and leave for months.

Answers to Help You Plan Ahead

Homeowners considering a full remodel often wonder how long it takes, whether they can stay in the house, and what happens if unexpected issues come up. These answers cover the most common concerns.

How long does a whole-home remodel take?
Most whole-home remodels take three to six months depending on the size of the home and how much structural work is involved. Phased projects may extend that timeline but allow you to remain in the house during construction.
Can I live in my home during the remodel?

Yes, Don Kittle Construction phases the work to keep essential rooms like bedrooms and bathrooms functional. Temporary barriers and dust containment keep disruption manageable.

What happens if you find rotted framing or outdated wiring?

Don Kittle Construction informs you immediately and provides a revised scope and cost estimate before proceeding. Structural repairs and code upgrades are addressed as soon as they are identified.

How do you decide which walls can be removed?
The team evaluates load-bearing walls, ceiling joists, and foundation support during the walkthrough. If a wall supports the roof or second floor, temporary supports and beam installation allow the wall to be removed safely.
What does transparent budgeting mean?

You receive a detailed breakdown of labor, materials, and anticipated costs before work begins. If changes occur during construction, Don Kittle Construction discusses them with you and adjusts the budget accordingly.
