Full Home Renovations

Reimagining Every Room

A full home renovation is more than a collection of separate projects—it's an opportunity to rethink how your entire home lives, functions, and feels. Our architect-led team approaches your home holistically, creating a cohesive design language that flows from room to room while honoring the character of your existing structure.

From the first sketch to final walkthrough, we focus on how each space connects, how light moves through the home, and how your family actually lives day to day.

Why Choose a Whole-Home Renovation?

When every room is considered together, you gain opportunities that piecemeal projects can't provide—better flow, improved natural light, smarter storage, and a unified aesthetic. We study circulation patterns, structural opportunities, and how your family truly uses the home to create a master plan that feels intentional and effortless.

The result is a residence that works harder for you every day: spaces that connect logically, sightlines that open up, and a design language that feels consistent and timeless from entry to primary suite.

Space Planning

From Choppy Rooms to Connected Living

Many older homes were designed for a different era—with small, compartmentalized rooms that limit natural light and make entertaining difficult. Through thoughtful space planning, we remove unnecessary barriers, reorganize circulation, and create open yet defined zones that support modern living.

Whether we're combining kitchen, dining, and living spaces, reworking bedroom layouts, or relocating a staircase, every move is grounded in structural logic and architectural intent. We balance openness with coziness to keep spaces both expansive and human-scaled.

  • Improved sightlines and natural daylight across the home.
  • Storage integrated into the architecture, not added as an afterthought.
  • Stronger connection between indoor rooms and outdoor living areas.

Systems & Structure

Thoughtful Upgrades Behind the Walls

A full renovation is the ideal time to modernize the systems that make your home comfortable and efficient. While we're redesigning your floor plan, we also look at what's hidden: structure, insulation, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC.

Our architects and construction team coordinate these upgrades so every outlet, fixture, and vent supports both the function and the aesthetics of each space.

  • Structural refinement: removing walls, adding beams, and reinforcing framing safely.
  • Comfort & efficiency: insulation improvements, HVAC zoning, and updated windows.
  • Lighting strategy: layered lighting plans that combine task, accent, and ambient light.
  • Future-ready wiring: smart home, AV, and charging integrated from the start.

Architect-Led Team

One Team from First Sketch to Final Walkthrough

Because design and construction live under one roof at TAV Remodeling, your full home renovation follows a single, architect-led roadmap. Communication is clear, details are aligned, and you always know where your project stands.

  • Architectural vision and permit-ready drawings.
  • Comprehensive budgeting and scheduling before construction.
  • Dedicated project management throughout on-site work.
  • Regular progress updates and walkthroughs with your team.
