Decoding Remodeling Costs in the South Metro

Understanding the financial aspect of your renovation is paramount. Costs in areas like Greenwood Village and Englewood are influenced by several factors, reflecting the dynamic Denver Metro market.

Key Factors Influencing Your Budget

• Project Scope & Size: Naturally, a larger project or one involving complex structural changes will cost more than a simple cosmetic update. The sheer volume of materials and labor hours increases with size.
• Quality of Materials: Your material choices significantly impact the bottom line, from budget-friendly laminate countertops to luxurious marble slabs or standard fixtures versus designer pieces. High-end finishes invariably mean higher costs.
• Labor Rates: Skilled labor is a substantial portion of any remodeling budget, often accounting for 20% to 45% of the total cost, depending on the trade and complexity. Denver’s competitive market means quality craftsmanship comes at a premium, but it’s an investment in longevity and a job done right.
• Layout Changes: Moving plumbing fixtures (toilets, sinks, showers) or electrical wiring, and especially relocating walls, adds considerable expense due to the increased labor and potential need for specialized trades (plumbers, electricians) and structural engineers.
• Permits & Local Regulations: Don’t underestimate the cost and time required to obtain the permits. This is crucial for ensuring work is safe and up to code and avoiding potential penalties.

Navigating Permits in Arapahoe County (Greenwood Village) & Denver/Englewood

Colorado has a unique approach to building codes – it’s mainly decentralized, meaning local counties and municipalities adopt and enforce specific codes and permit processes. This makes understanding local requirements critical. Greenwood Village resides entirely within Arapahoe County, while Englewood spans parts of Arapahoe and Denver Counties.

Why Permits Matter:

1. Legality: Ensures your project complies with local zoning, building, and safety codes.
2. Safety: Verifies that structural, electrical, and plumbing work is done correctly.
3. Resale Value: Unpermitted work can create significant issues when selling your Home.
4. Avoiding Penalties: Working without required permits can lead to stop-work orders, hefty fines (potentially $1,000/day in Adams County, for example), and the costly removal of unpermitted work. Some counties, like Weld, may add a 50% investigation Fee to the cost of unpermitted work.

Here’s a snapshot of what to expect in the relevant counties:

Table: Arapahoe County (Greenwood Village & parts of Englewood) Permit Highlights (as of 2024/2025)

Feature	Detail
Code Adoption	Adopted the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) effective July 9, 2024. Implemented new Solar Ready & EV Charging codes for new builds/major remodels.
Plan Review Fee	Typically, 50% of the building permit Fee (based on pre-increase data).
Fee Structure Basis	Based on the declared project value. Note: A 30% Fee increase was proposed in 2024, potentially raising costs significantly.
Potential Changes	The proposal eliminated “repeat master permit” discounts for model homes. The Fee structure compared favorably to Aurora/Adams previously.
State Compliance	NEC adoption aligns with state mandates.

Table: Denver County (Parts of Englewood) Permit Highlights (as of 2024/2025)

Feature	Detail
Code Adoption	Preparing to adopt 2024 I-Codes (Spring 2025 target), with a 6-month transition from the 2022 Denver Code. Continues using 2021 IECC (Energy).
Permit Fee Basis	The tiered system is based on higher ICC valuation data or declared project value. Plan review often accounts for 50% of the permit Fee.
Example Fees	$1-$500 value: $20 permit. $50k-$100k value: $420 base + $7 per $1k increment. Phased permit payment option available.
Other Fees	Contractor Licenses ($250/3 yrs), Appeals ($125/hr), Sewer Inspections ($150/connection).
Code Philosophy	Aiming to reduce local amendments and align more closely with standard I-Codes.

Apollo Renovation handles the entire permitting process for our clients, ensuring everything complies. It’s a crucial part of our comprehensive Remodeling Services.

The Heart of the Home: Greenwood Village Kitchen Transformations

A kitchen remodel is often the most impactful renovation, transforming daily routines into a central gathering space. The possibilities are endless, whether you envision a sleek, modern culinary workspace or a warm, traditional hub.

Planning Your Dream Kitchen

Success starts with planning. Consider how you use your kitchen: Are you an avid cook needing professional-grade appliances? Do you entertain frequently and require an open layout? Or is storage and efficiency your primary goal?

Defining Scope: From Refresh to Full Gut

• Cosmetic Refresh: This involves updating surfaces like countertops, backsplashes, paint, and hardware. The layout remains the same.
• Pull-and-Replace: Replacing cabinets, countertops, appliances, and fixtures within the existing footprint.
• Complete Gut/Remodel: This involves tearing everything out to the studs, potentially reconfiguring the layout, moving plumbing/electrical, and installing all new components. It offers the most design freedom but comes with the highest cost.

Budgeting for Your Kitchen Remodel

Kitchen remodel costs vary widely. Here are general tiers for the Denver Metro area, including Greenwood Village:

Table: Estimated Kitchen Remodel Cost Tiers (Denver Metro/Greenwood Village)

Tier	Estimated Cost Range	Typical Features & Materials	Appliance Level Examples
Basic	$25,000 – $50,000	Stock cabinets, laminate or basic granite countertops, basic ceramic tile backsplash, standard fixtures, paint, and keep the existing layout.	Budget brands like Frigidaire and Whirlpool (basic models).
Mid-Range	$50,000 – $90,000	Semi-custom cabinets, quartz or mid-grade granite countertops, porcelain or glass tile backsplash, upgraded fixtures, new lighting, and minor layout tweaks are possible.	Mid-range lines like GE Profile, Bosch, LG, Samsung.
Luxury	$90,000+	Custom cabinetry, high-end stone (marble, quartzite) or porcelain slab countertops/backsplash, designer fixtures, significant layout changes, smart home integration, and high-end flooring.	Luxury brands like Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Miele, JennAir.

(Note: These are estimates for full remodels including materials, labor, and project management. Costs can fluctuate based on specific selections and unforeseen conditions.)

Material Deep Dive: Countertops & Backsplashes

Your countertop and backsplash choices define the kitchen’s aesthetic and functionality.

Countertop Choices & Costs

Material selection impacts durability, maintenance, and price.

Table: Popular Countertop Materials & Estimated Installed Costs (USA Averages, Regional Variations Apply)

Material	Estimated Cost/Sq. Ft (Installed)	Key Features
Laminate	$15 – $100	Most affordable, wide variety of looks, less durable (scratches/heat).
Granite	$35 – $200	Natural stone is heat-resistant and durable, requires sealing, and is a popular mid-tier choice.
Quartz	$50 – $155	Engineered stone is non-porous, low-maintenance, has consistent patterns, and has a wide color range.

Costs are national averages; expect potential variations in the Denver market. Installation factors like edge treatments ($15-$35/linear foot for upgrades) and complex cuts add cost.

Backsplash Options & Costs

The backsplash protects your walls and adds a significant design element.

Table: Common Backsplash Materials & Estimated Installed Costs (USA Averages)

Material	Estimated Cost/Sq. Ft (Installed)	Key Features
Ceramic Tile	$6 – $32	Budget-friendly, has vast styles/colors, and is easy to clean.
Porcelain Tile	$7 – $30	Denser than ceramic, water-resistant, and durable.
Glass Tile	$18 – $42	Reflective, modern look, can be harder to install.
Natural Stone	$20 – $68	Matches countertops (granite, marble, etc.) are porous.
Subway Tile	$7 – $35	Classic, versatile, affordable ceramic/porcelain.
Stainless Steel	$25 – $75	Modern/industrial, durable, shows fingerprints.
Peel-and-Stick	$4 – $30 (DIY)	Very affordable, easy DIY, less durable/permanent.
Slab Backsplash	Varies (Matches Countertop Cost)	Seamless look, high-end, easier to clean (no grout).

Complex patterns (like herringbone) or extensive prep work increase installation costs.

Appliance Selection: Functionality Meets Style

Appliances are the workhorses of the kitchen. Balancing budget, features, reliability, and aesthetics is key.

Major Appliance Brands & Price Ranges (Illustrative)

These ranges provide a general idea; specific models and features drive costs.

Table: Estimated Price Ranges for Key Kitchen Appliances (USA)

Appliance Type	Budget Range	Mid-Range Range	Luxury Range	Top Brands Mentioned (Across Tiers)
Refrigerators	$500 – $1,500	$1,500 – $4,000	$4,000 – $15,000+	Frigidaire, GE, LG, Samsung, Sub-Zero, Thermador, JennAir
Ranges/Ovens	$600 – $1,300	$1,300 – $5,000	$5,000 – $15,000+	Whirlpool, GE Profile, Bosch, Wolf, Gaggenau
Dishwashers	$250 – $800	$800 – $2,000	$2,000 – $5,000+	KitchenAid, Bosch, Miele, Cove

Reliability is crucial. Brands like Bosch, GE, and LG consistently rank well for lower service rates.

Smart Kitchen Integration

Technology is increasingly integrated into kitchens. Smart refrigerators (like Samsung Family Hub), app-controlled ovens (Breville Smart Oven), wireless meat thermometers (Meater, Yummly), smart dishwashers (Bosch Home Connect), and even smart rice cookers offer convenience and precision, often adding $500 – $2,000 or more per appliance.

Labor and Installation Costs

Installation is not a DIY job for most kitchen components.

• General Labor: As mentioned, a significant budget component.
• Countertops: Installation labor can be 18-45% of the countertop cost. Removal of old tops adds ~$3-$6/sq ft.
• Backsplashes: Labor increases for intricate patterns or required prep work (wall leveling: $2-$5/sq ft).
• Appliances: A refrigerator installation costs $75-$450 (more for built-ins needing cabinet mods), and a range installation costs $100-$900 (more for gas line/electrical changes).

Apollo Renovation manages all aspects of kitchen remodeling, providing seamless coordination of all trades. These complex projects highlight the value of integrated Remodeling Services.

Creating Your Oasis: Bathroom Remodeling in Greenwood Village

A bathroom remodel can range from a simple powder room refresh to creating a luxurious master suite spa. Given the frequency of use, it’s a renovation that significantly impacts daily life and home value. Costs in Denver and surrounding areas like Greenwood Village have specific trends.

Understanding Denver Metro Bathroom Costs

Data specific to the Denver area provides a clearer picture of local pricing for 2024-2025.

Key Cost Influencers (Recap):

• Size: Smaller baths cost less overall but potentially more per sq ft.
• Materials: Basic vs. luxury finishes drastically change the price.
• Layout: Moving plumbing drives up costs significantly.
• Labor: Skilled trades are essential and represent a significant portion of the cost.
• Permits: Required for plumbing, electrical, and structural changes.

Table: Denver Bathroom Remodel Cost Ranges (Full Gut Remodel) by Size & Quality Tier (2024-2025 Estimates)

Bathroom Size & Type	Budget Remodel (Basic)	Mid-Range Remodel	High-End Remodel (Luxury)
Small Bath (Powder/ ¾, ~20–40 sq ft)	$5,000 – $10,000	$10,000 – $15,000	$15,000+
Features Example	Stock vanity, basic tile, new paint/toilet.	Tiled shower, quartz top, new lighting.	Custom vanity, designer tile, premium fittings.
Medium Bath (Standard Full, ~40–60 sq ft)	$10,000 – $15,000	$15,000 – $25,000	$25,000+
Features Example	Basic tub/shower kit, porcelain tile.	Upgraded tub/shower, semi-custom vanity.	Custom tile shower, heated floor, and better fixtures.
Large Bath (Guest/Small Primary, ~60–100 sq ft)	$15,000 – $25,000	$25,000 – $40,000	$40,000+
Features Example	Replace fixtures in place, standard tile.	Soaker tub & shower, granite/quartz tops.	Expanded shower, freestanding tub, custom cabinet.
Primary / Master Bath (~100+ sq ft)	$20,000 – $30,000	$30,000 – $50,000	$50,000 – $75,000+
Features Example	Refresh with/ basic fixtures, no layout change.	Large tile shower & tub, quality vanity.	Spa-like: steam shower, heated marble, custom everything.

(Note: ‘+’ indicates costs can exceed the upper range for ultra-luxury or complex projects. Some high-end Denver master bath remodels can approach or exceed $85K+, especially with layout changes or expansion.)

Table: Estimated Cost per Square Foot (Denver Full Bathroom Remodel)

Quality Tier	Estimated Cost per Sq. Ft	Example Calculation
Budget	$100 – $200	40 sq ft bath @ $8,000 = $200/sq ft
Mid-Range	$200 – $300	50 sq ft bath @ $15,000 = $300/sq ft
High-End	$300 – $450+	120 sq ft bath @ $60,000 = $500/sq ft

Smaller bathrooms often cost more per square foot because fixed costs are spread over less area.

Material Choices for Bathrooms

Bathrooms require moisture-resistant and durable materials.

• Flooring: Porcelain and ceramic tile are king due to water resistance. Natural stone offers luxury but needs sealing. Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is a budget-friendly, waterproof option.
• Vanities: Options range from budget-friendly stock units (big box stores) to semi-custom (more size/finish options) and fully custom (tailored design and high-end materials).
• Countertops: Quartz is highly popular for its durability and low maintenance. Granite and marble are also used, especially in higher-end designs.
• Showers & Tubs: Options include acrylic/fiberglass tub/shower units (budget), tiled showers (mid-range to luxury, endless design potential), freestanding tubs (luxury statement piece), and frameless glass enclosures (sleek, modern look).
• Fixtures: Faucets, showerheads, and hardware come in various finishes (chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, brass) and styles, impacting the overall look and cost.

Luxury Features

Elevate your bathroom into a personal spa:

• Heated Floors: A welcome comfort during cold Colorado mornings.
• Steam Showers: Create a home spa experience.
• Smart Toilets: Features like heated seats, bidet functions, and automatic lids.
• Custom Cabinetry & Storage: Maximize space and achieve a high-end look.
• Premium Tilework: Intricate patterns, large-format tiles, or natural stone like marble.

Expanding Your Horizons: Home Additions in Greenwood Village

When you love your location but need more space, a home addition is often the perfect solution. Additions are complex projects requiring careful planning, design, and execution.

Types of Home Additions

1. Room Addition: Adding a bedroom, bathroom, family room, or dining room onto the existing structure.
2. Bump-Out: A smaller extension to enlarge an existing room, perhaps adding a bay window or expanding a kitchen nook.
3. Second-Story Addition: Adding a new level to a single-story home – a significant undertaking.
4. Sunroom/Four-Season Room: Adding a light-filled space, often with extensive windows.
5. Garage Conversion/Addition: Converting existing garage space or building a new attached/detached garage with potential living space above (ADU – Accessory Dwelling Unit).

The Addition Process & Costs

Home additions involve multiple stages and trades:

1. Design & Planning: Working with an architect or designer to create plans that meet your needs and comply with local zoning/codes (setbacks, height limits, lot coverage in Greenwood Village/Arapahoe County).
2. Permitting: Due to structural and zoning implications, obtaining permits from Arapahoe County or Denver is crucial and often more complex than interior remodels.
3. Foundation: Pouring a new foundation or extending the existing one.
4. Framing: Building the walls, roof, and floor structures. (Apollo offers expert framing services.)
5. Exterior Envelope: Installing roofing, siding, windows, and doors to match or complement the existing Home. (Apollo offers roofing services.)
6. MEP Systems: Integrating Mechanical (HVAC), Electrical, and Plumbing systems, tying into existing services or upgrading as needed.
7. Insulation & Drywall: Insulating for energy efficiency (meeting IECC codes adopted locally) and installing drywall. (Apollo provides drywall services.)
8. Interior Finishes: Flooring, painting, trim work, fixtures. (Apollo provides painting services.)

Cost Estimation for Additions

Estimating additional costs per square foot is challenging due to high variability. Factors like the type of space (a bathroom addition costs more per sq ft than a simple bedroom), level of finishes, structural complexity, and site conditions play huge roles.

Table: General Estimated Cost Ranges per Square Foot for Home Additions (Denver Metro)

Type of Addition Space	Estimated Cost per Sq. Ft Range	Notes
Basic Living Space (Bedroom/Family Room)	$175 – $300	Standard finishes, minimal complexity.
Kitchen or Bathroom Addition	$300 – $500+	Includes complex plumbing, electrical, high-value fixtures, cabinetry, and finishes.
Second Story Addition	$250 – $450+	This includes significant structural work, roofing, stairs, and potentially reinforcing the lower level.
Sunroom (Three-Season)	$150 – $250	Less complex structure, less insulation/HVAC than full additions.
Sunroom (Four-Season)	$250 – $400	Fully insulated, integrated HVAC, similar complexity to a standard living space.

These are rough guidelines. Always get detailed quotes based on specific plans. Factor in design fees (5-15% of construction cost) and potential upgrades to existing systems (e.g., larger HVAC unit).

Home additions require extensive planning and expertise, making comprehensive Remodeling Services like ours invaluable.

Unlocking Potential Below: Basement Finishing in Englewood & Greenwood Village

An unfinished basement is a blank canvas brimming with potential. Finishing this space can nearly double your Home’s usable square footage, adding significant value and functionality – perfect for home offices, gyms, playrooms, guest suites, or entertainment areas.

Why Finish Your Basement?

• Cost-Effective Space: Generally less expensive per square foot to finish than building an addition.
• Increased Home Value: A well-finished basement is a significant selling point.
• Versatile Living Area: Create the specific type of space your family needs.

Key Considerations for Basement Projects

Basements present unique challenges that must be addressed:

• Moisture Control: Colorado soils and freeze/thaw cycles can lead to foundation moisture. Proper grading, drainage, sump pumps, and potentially interior/exterior waterproofing are essential first steps.
• Egress Windows: Building codes (like the IRC adopted by local counties) require any basement bedroom to have a direct means of escape (egress window or door) meeting specific size and accessibility requirements.
• Ceiling Height: Ensure adequate headroom after accounting for ductwork, plumbing pipes, and finished ceiling materials.
• Lighting: Basements lack natural light. A thoughtful lighting plan using recessed lights, sconces, and task lighting is crucial.
• HVAC: Extending ductwork and ensuring proper airflow are necessary for comfort. Consider supplemental heating if needed.
• Radon Mitigation: Colorado has areas with higher radon levels. Testing and potential mitigation system installation are recommended.

Basement Finishing Costs

Costs depend heavily on the level of finish, existing conditions, and features added (like bathrooms or wet bars).

• Cost per Square Foot: Expect to spend. In Denver, expect a full basement finish of $150+ per square foot. The Denver area uses a base valuation for finished basements around $45/sq ft before adding complexity factors, but market costs for full finishes are typically higher.

Table: Estimated Basement Finishing Cost Breakdown Components (Illustrative Ranges)

Component	Estimated Cost Range (Depends on Size/Complexity)	Notes
Framing	$5 – $15 per sq ft finished area	Includes walls and soffits around ductwork.
Insulation	$2 – $5 per sq ft of wall/ceiling	Code requirements vary; it is crucial for energy efficiency.
Electrical	$4,000 – $10,000+	Includes outlets, switches, lighting fixtures, and panel upgrades?
Plumbing (Basic)	$1,000 – $5,000	Tie-ins for future bath/bar, sump pump.
Plumbing (Full Bathroom)	+ $10,000 – $25,000	Includes fixtures, rough-in, finishes (similar to bath remodel).
Plumbing (Wet Bar)	+ $3,000 – $8,000	Sink, potential dishwasher/fridge hookups.
Drywall (Install & Finish)	$3 – $7 per sq ft covered	Taping, mudding, and sanding to a Level 4/5 finish.
Painting	$2 – $6 per sq ft painted	Walls, ceiling, trim.
Flooring	$5 – $20+ per sq ft installed	LVT, carpet, tile, and engineered wood options.
Egress Window Install	$3,000 – $7,000 per window	Includes cutting concrete, window well, window, and finishing.
Doors & Trim	$1,000 – $5,000+	Interior doors, baseboards, casing.

These are component estimates. A full project combines permits, project management, and potentially unforeseen costs.

Apollo Renovation can transform your dark basement into a bright, functional living space, handling everything from framing and drywall to painting and final touches.

Enhancing Curb Appeal & Protection: Exterior Renovations

Your Home’s exterior is its first impression and primary defense against Colorado’s challenging climate. Investing in roofing, fencing, and painting boosts curb appeal and protects your property.

Roofing Services

A roof is one of the most critical components of your Home, especially given Colorado’s hail, snow, wind, and intense sun.

• Importance: Protects against leaks, water damage, and structural issues. Impacts energy efficiency.
• Materials:
  • Asphalt Shingles: Most common, affordable, various lifespans (20-50 years). Impact-resistant options are vital in hail-prone areas.
  • Metal Roofing: Durable, long-lasting (50+ years), energy-efficient, higher initial cost.
  • Tile (Clay/Concrete) is durable, heavy, fire-resistant, high-cost, and requires specific structural support.
  • Wood Shakes and shingles: These are natural and aesthetic, require maintenance, and are fire-risky(check local codes).
  • Composite/Synthetic: Mimics slate or wood, durable, lower maintenance, mid-to-high cost.
• Replacement vs. Repair: Depends on age, damage extent, and roofing material type.
• Cost Factors: Roof size (I include the roof in “squares” – 100 sq ft), pitch/slope complexity, material chosen, existing roof removal, labor.

Table: E and Estimated Roofing Cost Ranges (Denver Metro – Replacement)

Material	Estimated Cost per Square (100 sq ft) Installed	Lifespan (Approx.)	Notes
Asphalt Shingles (Standard)	$350 – $600	20-30 years	Most common, good value.
Asphalt Shingles (Architectural/Impact Resist)	$450 – $800+	30-50 years	Better durability, potential insurance discount.
Metal Roofing (Standing Seam)	$900 – $1,800+	50+ years	Very durable, energy efficient, and high cost.
Concrete Tile	$800 – $1,600	50+ years	Heavy, durable, fireproof.
Composite/Synthetic	$800 – $1,500	40-50 years	Mimics natural look, good durability.

(Costs include removal of old roof, materials, installation, and basic flashing. Complex roofs cost more.)

Fencing

Fences define boundaries, provide privacy and security, contain pets/children, and enhance landscape design.

• Materials:
  • Wood (Cedar, Pine): Cedar has a natural look, is moderately expensive, and requires staining/sealing. It is more rot/insect resistant.
  • Vinyl (PVC) is low maintenance, comes in various styles/colors, and is moderate-to-high cost. However, it can become brittle in extreme cold.
  • Composite: Mimics wood, has very low maintenance, is durable, and is expensive.
  • Metal (Aluminum, Steel): Durable, secure, often lower privacy, can be ornamental. Prone to rust if not properly coated (steel).
  • Chain Link: Utilitarian, has the lowest cost, and has low privacy/aesthetics.
• Styles: Privacy (solid privacy, Picket (traditional), Split-Rail (rustic), Split-Rail (semi-private) ).
• Cost Factors: Linear footage includes linear height, material chosen, style complexity, number of gates, terrain difficulty, and labor.

Table: E and Estimated Fencing Costs per Linear Foot (Installed – Denver Metro)

Material	Estimated Cost per Linear Foot	Notes
Chain Link	$15 – $30	Basic, utilitarian.
Wood (Pine)	$20 – $40	Requires maintenance, lower lifespan than cedar.
Wood (Cedar)	$30 – $55	More durable, natural resistance to decay.
Vinyl (PVC)	$35 – $60	Low maintenance, variety of styles.
Aluminum	$45 – $75	Ornamental options, low maintenance.
Composite	$50 – $85+	Very durable, low maintenance, high cost.

(Costs vary based on height, style, and gate complexity.)

Painting (Exterior)

A fresh coat of paint protects your Home’s siding from moisture, UV rays, and pests while dramatically improving its appearance.

• Benefits: Protection against elements, increased curb appeal, and identification of potential siding issues.
• Process:
  1. Preparation: The most critical steps for a lasting finish are power washing, scraping loose paint, sanding, caulking gaps, and priming bare wood/stains.
  2. Painting: Applying 1-2 coats of quality exterior paint using sprayers, rollers, and brushes.
  3. Cleanup: Remove protective coverings and clean the site.
• Cost Factors include house size (square footage of siding), number of stories/height, accessibility, condition of existing siding (prep time), type/quality of paint, amount of trim/detail work, and labor.

Table: Estimated Exterior Painting Costs (Denver Metro)

Home Size/Type	Estimated Cost Range	Notes
Small Home (~1500 sq ft living)	$4,000 – $7,000	Single story, simpler trim.
Medium Home (~2500 sq ft living)	$6,000 – $10,000	Two stories, moderate trim/detail.
Large Home (~3500+ sq ft living)	$9,000 – $15,000+	Multiple stories, complex architecture, extensive trim, significant prep.

(Costs depend heavily on the amount of prep work needed.)

The Bones of Your Remodel: Foundational & Finishing Services

Behind every beautiful finished space are essential structural and finishing steps. Apollo Renovation handles these critical phases with precision and care.

Demolition

The necessary first step for most major renovations.

• Purpose: Removing existing structures, finishes, or components to make for the new design.
• Types:
  • Selective Demo: Removing specific elements (e.g., cabinets, a non-load-bearing wall).
  • Full Gut Demo: Taking a space down to the studs or subfloor.
• Process: Careful planning is needed to protect remaining structures, dust control is required, and debris is safely removed and properly disposed of.
• Cost Factors include the scope of removal (volume/type of material), complexity (avoiding utilities), accessibility, labor, and disposal fees (dumpster rental, landfill charges). Costs can range from a few hundred dollars for a minor demo to several thousand for a complete interior gut.

Framing

Creating the skeleton of your new space.

• Purpose: Building the walls, floors, roof structures, and openings for doors/windows according to architectural plans and building codes.
• Materials: Primarily wood (dimensional lumber) for residential construction; sometimes light-gauge steel.
• Importance: Structural integrity is paramount. Framing must be plumb, level, square, and comply with local codes (like the IBC/IRC adopted by Arapahoe, Denver, etc.) regarding Load paths, spans, and connections.
• Cost Factors include project size, complexity (curves, angles, high ceilings), material costs (lumber prices fluctuate), and labor rates. Framing often costs $10- $30+ per square foot of framed area, depending heavily on complexity.

Drywall (Installation & Repair)

Creating smooth surfaces for paint and finishes. Also known as gypsum board or Sheetrock.

• Process:
  1. Hanging: Attaching drywall sheets to the framing studs/joists.
  2. Taping: Applying paper or mesh tape over joints and corners.
  3. Mudding: Applying joint compound (mud) in multiple layers over tape and screw heads, feathering edges.
  4. Sanding: Sanding dried mud smooth between coats and for the final finish.
• Levels of Finish:
  • Level 0-3: Utility spaces, garages, or where appearance isn’t critical.
  • Level 4: Standard for most residential walls receiving flat/matte paint.
  • Level 5: This is the highest quality, requiring a skim coat over the entire surface; it is recommended for glossy paints or critical lighting conditions.
• Cost Factors include the total square footage of walls/ceilings, ceiling height, complexity (arches, niches, many corners), desired level of finish, and labor.

Table: Estimated Drywall Costs per Square Foot (Installed & Finished – Denver Metro)

Service	Estimated Cost per Sq Ft (Wall/Ceiling Surface)	Notes
Installation & Finish (Level 4)	$3.00 – $5.00	Standard residential finish.
Installation & Finish (Level 5)	$4.50 – $7.00+	Premium finish, requires skim coat.
Drywall Repair	Varies ($ 50- $ 150+ per patch, or hourly)	Depends on the size and complexity of the repair.
