RAM Construction is an owner/operator business. My customers expect to see me on the job, not a sub. I truly enjoy what I do for a living and am fortunate enough to live that dream.
"We hired Rich with RAM Construction to complete a major renovation to our property. With my husband being a contractor himself but having no time to do the work, this was a big step to take on our behalf and we needed a contractor we could trust to show up and complete this major renovation. Rich took the job on knowing full well what challenges may exist with working at another contractorâ s home. Rich was completely open to my husbandâ s suggestions as well as being able to provide his own ideas on how to complete the project. Even though we had a contract Rich has been very accommodating with allowing us to veer outside of the project specs. Rich has been great to work with and we recommend him 100% to anyone who may be looking for a great Contractor."

"Jim and crew are reliable and knowledgeable. I agree with all that Dana C in Kensington shared. We hired Jim to close in a carport for an addition by seeing the work he was completing for Dana. I then had him remodel an old garage that needed a face lift. We now have Jim building a ranch home for us from the ground up. It is going just as well. If only the prices due to the economy were not so disappointing. Materials are through the roof as a result. Here hoping for some REAL change in 2025 !!!!"

Start by asking a local contractor, architect, or interior designer for a detailed line‑item estimate. These pros can price out labor, materials, permits, and any specialty work, then flag areas where you can save. Once you have that breakdown, add 20% to the total to cover potential surprises, such as hidden water damage or code upgrades. This approach gives you a realistic budget before the first hammer swings.
In most cases, remodeling wins on price. Because you’re reusing the existing structure, you avoid foundation work, framing an entire shell, and many permit fees. Unless the home has severe structural problems, updating what you already own is the more budget‑friendly route than building an entirely new house from scratch.
Home renovation timelines hinge on scope. Cosmetic updates—such as new paint, fixtures, or flooring—can be completed in a few days or weeks. A multi-room gut renovation that involves moving walls or utilities can stretch to six months, and adding square footage can push the schedule past a year. Good planning and a clear contractor schedule help keep projects on track, so be sure to build extra time into the calendar for permit reviews and unforeseen repairs.
Before your home renovation work begins, contact your insurance agent to confirm that your current policy covers the project. Standard homeowners insurance usually protects against fire or storm damage during construction, but bigger upgrades—adding square footage, high‑end finishes, or new systems—can raise your home’s value beyond existing limits. If coverage falls short, ask about a renovation rider or a policy increase so you’re fully protected from day one to final walkthrough.
