"Ivan and his crew completed two projects for us, and they were nothing but professionals. Ivan took meticulous notes on what we wanted such as painting, changing light fixtures, and replacing flooring. During the process, Ivan and his crew found some other problems that we had not discussed, and they addressed those issues within the timeframes they had initially quoted. Rates on both projects were extremely reasonable, and Ivan was authentic and dependable. I would highly recommend hiring Ivan and his company for any home project you may have. I know that we will continue to work with him in the future."

Managed Renovations engages with our clients using a couple different business models depending on their needs, preferences, and level of desired participation in some of the required tasks involved with most projects. Some of our clients choose to use our unique construction management services business model to build their project that is distinctive from the typical fixed-price general contractor (GC) approach to construction. For those clients we provide fee-based construction management consulting services to schedule, manage (on-site), and review all the work that our clients choose to have us handle for the project. We connect and contract our clients with our seasoned collection of licensed and insured tradesmen and subcontractors (and our own in-house carpenters) that will provide each of their fixed price costs. Alternatively, some of our clients prefer to have their project built using a typical fixed-price general contractor (GC) approach to construction.
"We recently had our kitchen remodeled by Managed Renovations. The experienceâ from start to finishâ was nothing short of amazing and the finished kitchen is spectacular, exceeding our expectations. The Managed Renovations team, Michael and Natalie, and their subcontractorsâ carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and floor installersâ displayed a level of professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that was extraordinary. They turned a small, poorly designed 1970s kitchen into a large, beautiful, functional space that is now the heart of our home. Although the project involved demolishing walls and removing the existing cabinets, appliances, and flooring (and replacing them with new cabinets, appliances, and flooring), they accomplished this with minimal disruption to our lives, always leaving our home and the work area clean at the end of the day. Managed Renovations communicated with us throughout, (we could also track every aspect of the project online), making sure we were comfortable with every decision. Their recommendations, whether about design elements or vendors, were always â spot on.â There were no surprises. They delivered what they promised when it was promised, completing our kitchen on time and without any unanticipated costs. Managed Renovations' dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly unmatched. If youâ re looking for a general contractor who will deliver outstanding results, look no further than Managed Renovations."

"Finding a capable and reliable contractor is not easy. When we decided to remodel two bathrooms, no one we asked could give a strong recommendation for any previous contractor. We had postponed these projects for years, simply because we dreaded another â bad contractorâ experience. Thatâ s why itâ s so rewarding for us for us to report that Pegasus is the contractor weâ ve been looking for. Kudos to Walter for building and leading an up and coming young company that compares favorably against more established firms. They were responsive to our requests, provided timely communication and were actually fun to work with. They were extremely respectful of our home and performed a thorough clean up at the end of every work day. Every project inevitably encounters challenges along the way and ours was no different. But we donâ t judge others by mistakes made, we judge them by how they solve problems. In every instance, Pegasus resolved stumbling blocks quickly, graciously and with professionalism. As a result, our experience was painless and the finished bathrooms are a showcase of quality work we are proud to share with others. We now have a company we can confidently recommend to others."

The 30% rule serves as a guideline suggesting that renovation costs should not exceed 30% of your home's current market value. This principle helps prevent over-investing in improvements that the market may not fully reward upon resale.
For example, if your property is valued at $200,000, keeping your renovation budget under $60,000 provides better financial returns. However, this rule should be balanced with your personal goals and how long you plan to remain in the home.
A $50,000 budget can effectively transform several spaces if carefully allocated. This amount covers a moderate kitchen refresh combined with a bathroom update, or several less complex rooms like bedrooms and living areas.
Your geographic location, material choices, and the extent of structural changes significantly impact what this budget can accomplish. Focusing on cosmetic improvements rather than major layout changes helps maximize your investment across multiple spaces.
Labor constitutes the largest expense in multi-room remodels, accounting for 40% to 70% of total costs. Kitchen and bathroom spaces demand the highest investment due to their specialized fixtures, cabinetry requirements, and necessary plumbing work.
Premium materials such as natural stone countertops, hardwood flooring, and custom cabinetry also significantly increase project costs. Strategic budgeting that balances splurges and savings helps manage these high-cost elements effectively.
Most multi-room remodeling projects require three to six months from start to completion, though complex renovations may extend longer. The process follows a necessary sequence of demolition, structural work, mechanical rough-ins, finishing, and final detailing.
Timeline variables include material availability, contractor scheduling, inspection delays, and unexpected conditions discovered during construction. Establishing clear communication with your contractor and making prompt decisions helps maintain momentum throughout the project.
Begin with foundational and structural modifications that affect multiple spaces before progressing to individual rooms. Address "wet" areas like kitchens and bathrooms next, as these involve the most complex work with plumbing and specialized installations. Complete bedrooms and living spaces last to prevent damage to newly finished areas.
This logical progression minimizes redundant work and creates at least one functional living zone throughout the renovation process. Coordinating related work across different spaces also improves efficiency and potentially reduces costs.
