Home Remodeling in Kensington MD

Kensington, Maryland began as a village just a few miles north of Chevy Chase Circle and the DC border. The laid back town center still features a clutch of charming Victorians with wide welcoming porches. Over time, the woodlands south of town filled up with new houses all the way down to where Rock Creek winds through the community.

Many homes in Kensington, a mix of traditional (Capes, Farmhouses, Colonials) and mid-century styles, are more likely to feature modern amenities than those in neighborhoods closer to the DC line because they were built more recently. Home  remodeling projects in Kensington typically focus on upgrades to living space rather than expansions.

A remodeling company in Kensington is frequently tasked with helping a homeowner add or restore architectural details that express the innate character of the home--and to update and customize kitchens and bathrooms. This type of home remodeling requires design acuity and finesse.

That’s why it is vitally important to hire a design-driven home remodeling company with renovation architects, kitchen designers, and bath designers on staff.

Our renovation architects and interior designers are well versed in the quirks of traditional architectural styles as well as the complexities of contemporary architecture.  They understand what makes a space feel right. They can quickly identify limitations, create a detailed plan for your home remodeling project, then lead you to the fulfillment of a shared vision of what your old house could be.

Whether your project involves kitchen remodeling, bathroom renovation, or an expansive new home addition and interior reconfiguration, a well planned renovation can give your tired old house a new start while preserving all that is good about the original home.

They’ll finalize the floor plan for your new kitchen, then guide you through the process of selecting cabinetry, appliances, countertops, flooring, lighting design–and all the little details that will take your inspiration from random thoughts, to thoughtful design, to glorious completion.

Bathroom Remodel in Kensington MD

The homes built during the suburban expansion in Kensington generally feature well proportioned bathrooms. The problems we encounter in bathroom remodeling center around style:  the original colors, finish products, and fixtures may be “builder grade” or dated--and most owners want them upgraded to custom.  

Working with one of our staff bath designers makes the decision process go smoothly for you and ensures that the bath products and finishes you choose will hold up over time and contribute to a harmonious visual design.

Our bath designers also keep an eye on the construction process. This is important because, with any bathroom renovation project, there are details that must be worked out “on the fly”. Since our designers and craftsmen are used to working together, it’s easy for them make those small but important adjustments that always come up during the construction phase.


Home Additions in Kensington MD

Unlike homeowners in the near suburbs of Washington DC,  Kensington residents have less need for more space, but a great need for stylishly designed space. The most common home addition requested in Kensington is usually a porch or sunroom addition--a luxury rather than a necessity.

More often we will redesign existing interiors to modernize a floor plan and introduce stylish architectural details to personalize interiors--most especially in kitchens and bathrooms.  Having a home remodeling plan that is backed up by design expertise and resources, is your best guarantee that your remodeling project will result in improvements that deliver the comfort, aesthetic and functional standards you expect.
