Most Asked Home Remodeling and Construction-Based FAQs

The cost of a remodeling service will vary significantly depending on the scope of the project. When determining an estimate for your home remodel, our experts consider several key factors, such as:

• The type of renovations needed: A small closet remodel will require drastically less expenditure than a full-scale kitchen makeover.
• The complexity of your renovations: If your home has any structural restrictions or specific limitations that require additional demolition work or specialized electrical or plumbing features, the price may increase.
• The materials used: We offer an array of quality materials; however, some materials are more expensive than others. If you opt for a high-end material, such as natural stone, you will be looking at a considerable price increase.

Southwest Builders is fully insured and comprised of a team of licensed and highly trained professionals, ensuring your home is protected should the unexpected arise. Furthermore, we take great pride in ensuring our services are conducted to the highest safety standards so our clients can rest assured that they are in the best hands.

At Southwest Builders, we manage the details of your project for a hassle-free remodeling experience. However, there are several measures you may take to prepare your home for renovation work, such as:

• Clear your personal belongings from the surfaces of the area.
• Take down any picture frames or decorations on the walls.
• Clean out drawers or cabinets.

Dust is an inevitable part of the renovation process. Larger projects that involve tearing down walls or structures may produce more dust than smaller tasks such as replacing countertops. However, our professionals take pride in our work, and we will leave your home the way we found it, cleaning up any dust and debris that may arise during the remodeling process.
