Here are the top 6 factors that drive cost:

1. LAYOUT AND AGE OF HOME

An extension of a home, the basement serves as a place for families to gather and play. Plumbing and structural elements may need to be relocated to accommodate this use. The cost could rise as a result. Budget is not the only factor to consider; there are also factors such as age, water intrusion, radon, and uneven concrete.

2. BASEMENT FEATURES

The cost of appliances, cabinets, wet bars, and backsplashes will all vary. When you have a fireplace in your basement, it will be the most cozy place in your house. Keep gas, electricity, and stone in mind when budgeting.

3. SPECIALTY ROOMS

If you decide to finish your basement later, our team can add unique rooms such as wine cellars, home gyms, and a crafting room. These rooms are designed and built just for you. Based on their materials, equipment, finishes, plumbing, and electrical systems, customized spaces may cost more or less.

4. BATHROOMS

You can make your basement more convenient, luxurious, and complete by adding a bathroom. Since a bathroom requires water and electricity, it is expensive to construct. Make sure you know how much water plumbing and access is in your basement so you can determine how much your basement will cost.

5. ELECTRICAL AND APPLIANCES

Add appliances such as a kegerator, pizza oven, and microwave to your basement to make it more convenient and impress your guests. Mechanical upgrades are often overlooked as part of the cost of new appliances. We can give you an estimate of how much these upgrades will cost.

6. EGRESS WINDOWS & CODE COMPLIANCE

In basements, it is mandatory that there be two egress points; otherwise, it will increase the cost. Egress windows are windows that can be opened in an emergency. Egress windows, in addition to providing natural light and ventilation, can also add natural light to a room to enhance its comfort.

Kitchen Remodel

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

It takes a lot of work to remodel a kitchen, but it is one of the best spaces in your home to update when it comes to ROI. Kitchen remodels can be one of the more expensive projects to complete, but they enhance the value and functionality of your home.

2. SCOPE CREEP

The scope (or amount) of work required to gut and remove a kitchen depends on many factors. If anything unexpected happens, you can be sure your FBC team is prepared. Among them are HVAC, plumbing, electrical, finishing, flooring, and paint.

3. FLOORING

You can add beauty, charm, and appeal to your design with flooring. Flooring choices should complement cabinet and countertop selections. Prices can vary depending on the type and amount of flooring chosen, and whether it flows into other areas of the home.

4. APPLIANCES

There is a wide range of price points available when purchasing appliances, so it’s important to consider your options when budgeting. Your new appliances may require hidden mechanical and code updates that can increase your costs.

5. CODE COMPLIANCE

Codes for residential properties are always changing. If you choose FBC, we will ensure that your kitchen meets all necessary code requirements. This may require updating your home’s mechanical specs, which will affect the cost of your project.

You can make your shower and floor look priceless by having tile in your shower and on the floor. Bathtubs, vanities, and faucets can all be statement pieces in your bathroom. In the remodel of your bathroom, your fixtures, tile, and finishes could have a significant impact on the final cost.

3. VANITIES

Vanities will help you stay organized in style without compromising space. Many features such as hamper pull-outs, sliding towel bars, and linen storage spaces are available to meet your needs. Each of these customization choices, such as the wood type, finish, storage, and door style, contributes to the overall cost.

4. ELECTRICAL

Especially around mirrors, good lighting is crucial in bathrooms. To accommodate adequate lighting and outlets, consider updating the electrical system. Make sure to speak with the FBC team about lighting during the planning phase, as these changes can affect the project’s cost.

$200K+ Top of Range

Here are the top 6 factors that drive cost:

1. AGE OF HOME

2. SQUARE FOOTAGE

With more square footage, you have more opportunities to improve the overall functionality of your space. Be aware that materials and labor can be expensive. Your designer will design a space that is functional no matter what its size.

Vanities help you stay organized without sacrificing style. You can customize your bathroom with features such as hamper pullouts, sliding towel bars, and linen storage. Wood type, finishes, storage, and door style are some of the customizations.

4. FINISHING DETAILS & MATERIALS

A picture-perfect look is created by adding finishing touches like custom hardware, specialty doors, and lighting. These are often more expensive than standard finishes. In addition to the flooring, countertops, appliances, fixtures, and other finishes in your home, you will have to consider their costs.

5. ELECTRICAL

Electrical systems are almost always involved in space planning. It may be necessary to update outlets, wiring, or electrical panels if the house is older. We will ensure that your house meets all building codes. Your project may cost more if you need to update your home’s mechanical systems.

6. UNFORESEEN COSTS

Adding a significant portion of your home to your remodel will give it a fresh, new feel. Despite their expertise, construction teams cannot see all the potential problems inside walls and under floors. FBC Remodel’s experience and fixed pricing allow you to plan for the unexpected.

Historic Homes

What Makes A Historic Home?

Home remodeling in a historic style can update your old home while maintaining the charm of its era. You can consider a project to be a historic home in a few ways. At FBC Remodel, a historic home is:

• Built before 1970
• In Denver, considered a historical home in need of special permitting by the historical home board.

Historic home remodels may be more expensive and take longer to complete due to their custom nature. Find out how historic home remodel prices are determined.

THE TOP 6 FACTORS THAT DRIVE COST

1. BRINGING YOUR HOME TO CODE

Due to the extremely old conditions, existing remodeling items that were not completed correctly, or sometimes both, historic homes typically increase in price throughout every aspect of the project. An old house needs to be brought up to code which is difficult and can involve extra steps that would not be necessary in a more modern home. You can add egress windows, adjust ceiling heights, rewire the house, and add insulation throughout the home.

2. SPECIALTY TRADES

For plumbers and HVAC contractors to work with historic homes in Minneapolis, special licensing is required. Due to their expertise and the complexity of working within a historic house, these trades typically come at a higher labor cost.

3. CEILING HEIGHTS

Most cities require a minimum ceiling height of 7′, especially in basements. Some cities won’t allow construction unless you can reach this ceiling height, which usually means digging down or moving pipes that are contributing to low ceilings.

4. UPGRADING MECHANICS & ELECTRICAL

Bringing a historic home up to code means updating its plumbing, electrical, and mechanical systems. You may need to rewire the house, clean up existing electrical wiring, add plumbing, and install a subpanel.

5. LEAD & ASBESTOS

All of our construction and living projects are tested for lead and asbestos to create a safe environment. Asbestos and lead are typically found in historic homes. Anything constructed before 1978 is likely to contain lead, while homes built today may contain asbestos. The homeowner may be faced with significant expenses when mitigating these issues.

6. FLOORING

Historic homes often require brand new floors that require a more involved process than simply replacing the existing floors. The floors of most historic homes need to be leveled, and waterproofing and drain tiles need to be installed, both of which can be very expensive.
