Comprehensive Residential Renovation
Whole-House Remodel with Deck Renewal
A comprehensive two-level remodel updates the interior, exterior envelope, windows, doors, roofing, insulation, HVAC, decks, stairs, and cable-rail systems without adding heated floor area.
Project overview
Comprehensive Residential Renovation
This renovation treats the house as a coordinated system rather than a collection of separate finish projects. Existing siding and stone are retained where practical, while the roof, windows, doors, insulation, interior finishes, cabinets, plumbing fixtures, HVAC, decks, stairs, and railings are comprehensively renewed.

Design approach
How the project was organized
- First- and second-floor remodel plans coordinated with demolition.
- New and refurbished deck areas with stairs and cable railings.
- Replacement windows and exterior doors with energy-performance requirements.
- Roof replacement plus soffit, fascia, and trim renewal.
- New cabinets, countertops, backsplashes, plumbing fixtures, and interior finishes.
- Insulation upgrades tailored to existing wall and attic conditions.
Primary design challenge
A whole-house remodel must reconcile new work with materials and assemblies that remain. The drawings distinguish retained siding and stone from replaced envelope components, coordinate interior and exterior changes, and provide specific deck and cable-rail details so the renovation can be priced and reviewed as one project.
