"Well , I would give it a zero star if I could. We scheduled an appointment after we spoke with one of the representatives at our local fall festival. He seemed great and we are in the market for replacing our windows and siding. We scheduled the appointment for Saturday at one PM. They called on Friday and verified the appointment for the following day. One o'clock came and went and at one thirty I called the business and was transferred to an answering service. The third party answering service was great and she took down our name and information verified our contact number, email, and address and said they would forward it onto the company and someone would be in touch. Two days later and no contact. The company was a no call no show for the appointment that they had verified the day before! Zero professionalism, respect, or regard for potential clients with a decent sized job! Grateful we dodged that nightmare before it started!"

Kodiak improvements inc. est. 1999 has an A+ BBB rating. we are your local source for quality home improvements & maintenance. Thank you for considering Kodiak Improvements Inc. for any and all home improvements and maintenance projects. Michael E. Durst President Kodiak Improvements Inc.
"We can't say enough about how delighted we were with not only the results of our total kitchen remodel, but the experience of working with Mike, Ryan and Jared. From our very first contact, they were reliable and responsive, answering all texts and calls promptly and keeping appointments punctually. They offered ideas but were also highly respectful and responsive to ideas we presented, always saying "We can make that happen!", even when we had some really out-there requests like cutting a whole section of cabinets out around our 100 year old laundry chute and installing a stained glass window! Ryan and Jared are superb carpenters; their work is beautiful and they pay careful attention to detail. Best of all they are both extremely polite and pleasant, which really matters when someone is in your home every day for several weeks. They had our kitchen completely demolished down to the plaster and back to being a functioning kitchen in just 4 weeks , including significant plumbing and electrical repairs and upgrades , as well as delays in shipping of a replacement for a damaged cabinet (not their fault!) and our new window. They have well-established relationships with a number of local subcontractors and vendors who are equally reliable and skilled, so the project moved along without any other delays. We would hire them without question to do other work on our home!"

Luxury renovations require anywhere from several months to over a year for completion, depending on project complexity and material availability. Comprehensive transformations involving structural changes, extensive system upgrades, or specialized finishes demand longer timelines due to the sequential nature of construction phases. Custom elements, such as handcrafted cabinetry, imported stone, or specialized architectural features, often have extended production and delivery schedules, sometimes adding months to the overall timeline compared to standard renovations.
Comprehensive home automation represents the cornerstone of contemporary luxury renovations, encompassing integrated systems for lighting, climate, security, and entertainment. Spacious, multifunctional layouts continue to dominate, with emphasis on creating seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor living spaces. Wellness-focused features, such as home spas, advanced air filtration, and specialized lighting systems, are gaining prominence. Universal design elements that accommodate aging in place without sacrificing aesthetics have become increasingly important, incorporating features like zero-threshold showers and elegant grab bars that blend seamlessly with luxury design schemes.
Consider temporary relocation when your renovation involves multiple rooms or impacts essential systems, such as water or heating. Living through major construction creates significant challenges, including dust contamination, noise disruption, privacy concerns, and limited access to basic facilities. If staying during the renovation, plan to establish functional living zones isolated from the construction areas, potentially including temporary kitchen arrangements or alternative bathroom facilities. For targeted renovations affecting limited areas, remaining in your home may be feasible with proper containment measures and clear communication with your construction team regarding your living requirements.
Begin your search by consulting friends and colleagues who have completed similar high-end projects in your area. Examine potential contractors specifically for luxury work similar to your vision, noting the quality of finishes and attention to detail. Request comprehensive proposals that delineate materials, labor, timelines, and payment schedules. Verify credentials, including licensing, insurance coverage, and specialized certifications relevant to luxury construction. Schedule in-depth consultations to assess communication styles and design sensibilities, ensuring the contractor fully appreciates your aesthetic goals and quality expectations.
Anticipate potential expenses for addressing concealed structural issues that only become apparent during demolition, such as inadequate support systems or outdated wiring requiring comprehensive updates. Budget for possible permit complications, including special reviews for historical properties or engineering assessments for complex structural modifications. Infrastructure upgrades often become necessary when adding luxury features, including electrical capacity enhancements for new systems or plumbing modifications for specialty fixtures. Environmental remediation for discovered hazards, such as lead paint or asbestos, can incur significant unplanned costs. Establishing a contingency fund of 15 to 20% helps manage these unexpected developments without compromising your renovation vision.
