THE REMODEL

When times are fluid, your homes spaces should be too. Update you're home with us and give a room new purpose. Let that office become a hobby room or your back yard become an inviting entertainment venue.

RI Custom Homes breaks down your remodel with as much passion as we do our new construction. We uniquely use a similar process - Architectural Phase, Interior Design, Pre-construction, and Physical Construction.

ARCHITECTURAL PHASE

We begin with your needs and wants. Sitting down we talk about the spaces current function and focus on bringing it to a whole new level. Rooms begin to move, kitchens get bigger, and bedrooms get functional. After these discussions we thoroughly measure the home, bring it into autoCAD, and begin providing you the context you need to make key decisions before walls come down. We take many steps coordinating the current conditions and feasibility to make sure what we plan can be safely and functionally implemented during this phase. In some cases a third party engineer is brought in for things like widening opeinings with certain engineered products.

INTERIOR DESIGN

We exclusively partner with RI Studios, a multi award winning sister company. For more information on their services visit, RIStudiodallas.com. In much similar fashion to new homes, our designer will sit down with you and discuss material pairing, architectural interior elements, and present a fully designed concept. The designers focus is making sure your bigger intentions are met while we focus on your structure. Our designer will take you to exclusive showrooms and studios to find your personal touches.

PRE - CONSTRUCTION

Plans and specifications rule in remodels. Without proper planning things get missed, time gets wasted, and money gets spent. We don’t go into anything without having sketches and a budget. We enlighten you with knowledge during this phase while we compile the architectural drawings, interior design elements, and what is required to permit the project with the city. A final set of specifications is determined. During this step all selections are finalized, all decisions are computed, and all work is put in tables and delivered back to you for one last final input. The loan is started with your bank and once funded ordering for key materials begins for long lead items.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE

We strongly encourage anyone taking on a remodel to relocate either off property or to a location that will keep progress moving. During construction in some cases we will use plastic dust barriers or specific removal of dust during activities. Our remodel work almost always uses the same philosophy as new construction, we use the best techniques, best materials, and best trades to make sure we provide a better built project.
