Wendy W. says, "Having Francisco as our project manager was a blessing. We had been planning our home remodeling project for a long-time. A close friend of ours hired RIJI Home improvements and Handywork for their home addition and it turned out beautiful. Towards the end of their addition, they invited us to have a walk through and meet Francisco who was their project manager at the time. The meeting went really well and we knew right there and then that we would like to work with him and RIJI Home improvements and Handywork. We hired RIJI Home improvements and Handywork for the complete project, including design and architecture services. Our remodel involved some structural changes which required the assistance of Jamie the company's architect. All in all, the entire plan to permit stage was pretty straight forward and smooth. Although the city weren't easy to communicate with the team at RIJI Home improvements and Handywork were able to push things forward according to schedule. Francisco was a true asset for this project he was extremely helpful in moving things forward. He was very patient with us but very strict and assertive with vendors and the remodeling professionals. He did not cut corners and went into the nitty gritty details. He made sure that everything was done according to plan and was on top of all the project aspects. The city inspector was impressed with the project's progress and how organized and detailed the remodeling team were. He said that this was a team of professionals who knew their craft. Hiring RIJI Home improvements and Handywork is a choice that we are happy with. We felt that we were in good hands and that this is a company we could trust to take responsibility for their work. A big thanks to Francisco and the rest of the remodeling team who were respectful and extremely helpful along the way."See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much will it cost to remodel my house?

The cost to remodel a home is highly variable — size and scope of the project, quality of materials, and the number of subcontractors required to complete the job all affect the total cost. The average national cost of a home renovation project is $13,500. The national average per-square-foot cost of a remodel ranges from $25 to $100. Nationally, kitchen and bathroom remodels are the most popular types of projects, in part because they typically have the highest return on investment when the home is sold. The national average cost of a major kitchen remodel ranges from $25,000 to $62,000, while the average bathroom remodel tends to cost $6,000 to $18,000. In addition to materials and labor costs, many remodeling project costs include permit fees, which, average $900 or more, depending on your location.

Do I need a contractor for a kitchen remodel?

A kitchen remodel is one of the most important investments you can make in your home, and it’s critical to get the details right; that’s where a home renovation contractor comes in. A minor remodel usually includes new cabinet faces and hardware, replacement appliances, and paint, while an extensive job may enlarge the kitchen’s square footage, install new cabinets or an island, change the layout, and lay new tile or hardwood floors. Any renovation that includes filing permits, construction, or electrical or plumbing work is best completed by an experienced contractor who knows local codes.

Why should you hire a contractor?

Hiring a general contractor is a good idea for many remodeling projects. Home renovation contractors have a broad range of skills to manage, coordinate and complete a project. They should help make sure your project comes in on time and within your budget as they hire and supervise all the necessary subcontractors, including electricians and plumbers. They also handle procuring all the materials required for your job. Some homeowners look to save money by acting as their own contractor, but an experienced home renovation contractor is worth the cost. They should know local building codes, be able to pull all necessary permits, and work with inspectors to make sure the construction meets local codes. Also, because they get professional discounts, they can typically buy materials at a better price than you can; better prices on materials and labor save you money, and make up for at least a percentage of the cost of the contractor.

When should you hire a contractor?

A few home remodeling projects can be done by an ambitious DIY-minded homeowner or local handyman, but many are best completed by a professional home renovation contractor. You should hire a contractor when you’re planning a large project that takes time, machinery or large tools, and several workers; a kitchen remodel, new bathroom or home addition will be most successful with a licensed, expert contractor at the helm. It’s particularly important to have a professional contractor on board for construction, electrical, plumbing and HVAC projects that require inspections to meet local building codes. Of course, you can hire a contractor for smaller projects, too, if you prefer to let an expert handle things like addition or removal of a wall, small framing projects, or anything that requires a permit.  

You should hire a contractor when you’re ready to start a remodeling project and you have plans, a budget and a timeline for the work in hand, but before any remodeling work begins.
