Does your home feel outdated, cramped, or just not quite right anymore? A whole home remodel could be the solution.
A whole home remodel or complete renovation is your chance to rethink how your space looks, feels, and functions. From improving outdated layouts to upgrading finishes, increasing energy efficiency, or making your home more accessible, remodeling your entire home gives you the flexibility to create something truly personalized to your lifestyle.
Whereas individual room updates limit your creativity to a single space, a whole home renovation allows for cohesive design themes to be carried across the home. Homeowners get the opportunity to maximize their space and, in some instances, may increase the home’s value. In this post, we’ll walk through what the whole home remodel process involves, the benefits large-scale remodels can bring, and key considerations to keep in mind as you begin to plan your project.
A whole home remodel is the process of making comprehensive aesthetic and structural changes to multiple areas of a home at the same time. Where a home renovations project might involve upgrading fixtures and hardware, home remodeling includes more extensive layout changes such as removing walls to create or open certain spaces, moving major systems to accommodate new layouts, and building additions or expansions. Unlike a single-room renovation, a whole home remodel is intended to transform the entire living space to better suit your lifestyle, functionality needs, and long-term goals.
In addition to improving multiple spaces at once, whole home remodels may require both cosmetic and structural changes to achieve your desired end goals. Examples of these mixed improvement projects can include:
These improvements are ideal for homeowners who want to make meaningful, long-term upgrades that reflect how they live now—and how they plan to live in the future.
A whole home remodel is a smart investment for homeowners who want to create new spaces and improve the functionality of their home to better suit their lifestyle. Whether you're welcoming a growing family, planning to age in place, or creating your forever home, whole home remodels give you the freedom to achieve your long-term design goals while creating a functional space tailored to your needs. Working with a design-build firm can be particularly helpful when identifying your long-term goals - these experts bring valuable industry knowledge and networks that can break down what projects and requirements are necessary to achieve your perfect home layout and aesthetic.
Remodeling your entire home at once ensures a cohesive design from room to room—consistent finishes, coordinated color palettes, and a layout that flows naturally. It creates a polished, intentional look that piecemeal updates often can’t achieve.
From reworking layout to adding custom storage and tech upgrades, a whole home remodel allows you to tailor every space to how you actually live.
Homes that are thoughtfully renovated throughout tend to hold (and increase) their value better over time. Buyers recognize the convenience and quality of a fully updated property.
Tackling one big remodel means fewer disruptions over time. Rather than living through repeated smaller renovations, you’ll experience one streamlined process—and enjoy the results sooner.
Updating windows, insulation, HVAC systems, and appliances as part of a full remodel can significantly reduce energy use and improve year-round comfort.
A whole home remodel gives you the opportunity to rethink underused areas—turning wasted square footage into functional, beautiful living space that fits your needs today and tomorrow.

The timeline of full home remodels varies based on the project’s size and complexity. At House to Home Solutions, we approach each project with our VisionBuilder™ Process, consisting of three stages to ensure optimal results.
Costs depend on the home’s size, scope of changes, and materials chosen. In general, a full remodel can range from $100,000 to $500,000+, depending on customization and structural work.
If your budget and living situation allow, remodeling all at once offers a more cohesive design, saves time in the long run, and can be more cost-effective than doing separate projects over time. While the idea of remodeling your entire home at once can seem overwhelming, at House to Home Solutions, we take careful steps to minimzie disruptions.
We establish clear schedules and communication channels to provide ongoing updates through the course of the project. In addition to working with our team members, you will have 24/7 access to our project management software, where you can see your project details, product calendar, and daily logs (progress updates) to maintain clear communication.
It depends on the scope. Some homeowners choose temporary housing, especially if key spaces like kitchens and bathrooms are unusable during construction.
Design-build firms streamline the process by handling both design and construction in-house, which reduces delays, improves communication, and results in a more unified vision for your remodel.
Our Design-build process consists of three stages: Discovery, Design, and Construction. Home Remodels begin with the discovery phase where we facilitate a consultation to understand your goals, build out a concept, define a budget, and prepare for the home transformation. After this, our award-winning design team learns more about your design vision, refine tastes and preferences, as well as begin selecting layouts, materials, and finishes. In this stage, a detailed plan complete with a 3D rendering, material/fixture selection, and budget are determined. Finally, we begin the Construction Stage where our experienced craftsmen transform your space and bring your design vision to life. With the entire project being Project Managed for efficiency, shorter build time and peace of mind.
Whether you're dreaming, planning, or ready to start, we're here to help. The design-build team at House to Home is here to walk you through the possibilities for your whole home—on your timeline, with your goals in mind.
