Remodeling Contractor in Carrollwood, FL

Carrollwood grew around Lake Carroll starting around 1960, then expanded into Carrollwood Village and the surrounding subdivisions over the next two decades. Many homes are single-story ranches from the 1960s through the 1980s, set on large lots shaded by live oaks, with some right on the lake.

A lot of these homes have been well cared for by long-time owners, which is exactly why so many still have their original kitchens and baths. The structure is often sound, but the rooms were designed for a different era.

Those oaks bring their own planning questions. Roots, limbs and shade affect where a dumpster can sit, where an addition can go and how much natural light reaches the kitchen. We walk the lot with you before suggesting anything that changes the footprint.

Opening up a house of this age always involves a few discoveries. We plan for them during the estimate so they show up in your proposal instead of as surprises during demolition.

The kitchen is usually first. Opening it to the family room, adding an island and replacing original cabinets turns a dark, closed room into the center of the house. Our kitchen remodeling team plans the structural, plumbing and electrical changes together.

Bathrooms follow close behind. Many long-time Carrollwood owners want to age in place, so walk-in showers, grab bars and wider doorways are common requests. On larger lots, a bedroom suite or family room home addition can give a family room to grow without leaving the neighborhood.

When the kitchen, both baths and the floors all date from the same decade, doing them as one project often makes sense. One permit, one schedule and one point of contact keep the work organized, and electrical or plumbing upgrades can be done once for the whole house.

Konstantin, one of our reviewers, had a full home renovation in Largo that included the kitchen and bathrooms. That kind of project is what our home remodeling service is built for.
