Whole home remodeling

Whole home remodeling in Bucks County, PA

Atlas Design & Build is a husband and wife owned design-build firm leading whole home renovations across Bucks County, Montgomery County and the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. We work with homeowners opening up floor plans they have outgrown, modernizing older homes without losing their character and rebuilding tired layouts into homes that feel current.

A whole home renovation has more moving parts than any other residential project. Multiple rooms, multiple trades, structural and systems decisions, often a family living in part of the house while construction continues. We carry the weight of planning, coordinating and communicating across every part of the project so you do not have to track it yourself.

How we work

Our process

01

Discovery call

A 20 to 30 minute conversation about your home, your goals and your timeline. We talk openly about investment so you know early whether we are the right fit. Complimentary.

02

Site consultation

We visit your home to see the space, take initial measurements and talk through your ideas and inspiration. Within two business days you receive a written budget range for your project. Complimentary.

03

Design

This is where your project takes shape. We take full measurements and develop your layout, drawings and selections, refining them with you over two rounds of revisions. The design phase ends with an exact fixed price for your project. Your design fee is credited toward construction.

04

Proposal

We present your complete proposal: scope, finishes, investment and timeline in one place. Your start date is set once the agreement is signed.

05

Construction

We protect your home, keep the site organized and send you an update every Friday covering what was completed, what comes next and any decisions we need from you. You walk through each milestone with us before it is invoiced.

06

Walkthrough and warranty

We walk every space with you and complete any final details. You receive a closeout package with your warranty, product list and care guide. We check in at 30 days and again before your one year mark.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does a whole home renovation cost in Bucks County?

Whole home renovation costs in Bucks County and Montgomery County vary widely based on scope, finishes, structural changes and the condition of the existing home. Multi room interior renovations typically start in the low six figures. Larger whole home projects with full kitchen, multiple bathrooms, basement finishing and significant structural work commonly run into the mid to high six figures. After the site consultation we share a written budget range, before any design work begins. Explore our whole home renovation cost guide.

How long does a whole home renovation take?

Most Atlas whole home renovations run four to nine months of active construction once design and permits are complete. The full timeline from first conversation to final walkthrough commonly lands between six and twelve months. Phased renovations completed in stages can take longer overall but reduce the impact on family life during construction. We build the schedule with you upfront and share it in writing.

Can we live in the house during a whole home renovation?

In many cases yes, especially when the project is phased or limited to specific rooms at a time. Full gut renovations and significant structural changes generally require temporarily relocating. We help you think through what is realistic for your project during the discovery conversation, and plan the construction sequence around your family's needs where possible.

Do you handle the design as well as the construction?

Yes. As a design-build firm, design and construction are handled under one roof. You work with a single team from layout planning through final installation. This keeps decisions consistent and avoids the gaps that appear between separate design and construction firms.
