What affects the price
When you plan a whole-home renovation, your final budget depends on several moving parts. The biggest factor is the scope of work—are you moving walls and updating plumbing, or just refreshing surfaces? The materials you choose, from high-end custom cabinetry to standard finishes, play a massive role as well.

Frequently asked in Cary
What is the 30% rule in remodeling?
The '30% rule' isn't a standard industry term, but many homeowners consider how much of their home's value a renovation might add. Generally, major projects like kitchen or bathroom remodels can significantly boost your home's appeal and marketability in Cary. Discussing your project scope with a local pro can help you understand potential ROI.
What is the difference between renovating and remodeling?
Renovating often means restoring something to a good state, like fixing worn-out fixtures. Remodeling, on the other hand, implies changing the structure or layout of a space. For example, knocking down a wall to create an open-concept living area in your Cary home would be remodeling. Both can greatly improve your living space.
Is it cheaper to buy a house or remodel?
This is a common question for many Cary homeowners. Sometimes, remodeling an existing home can be more cost-effective than buying a new one, especially if you love your current location. It allows you to customize your space exactly to your liking. However, the cost comparison depends on market conditions and the extent of the remodel.
What is the 30% rule for renovations?
Similar to the '30% rule in remodeling,' this likely refers to a homeowner's budget relative to their home's value. While there's no strict rule, many aim for renovations that enhance livability and value without exceeding a certain percentage of their home's worth. The pros can help you align your project with your goals.
