A whole-home remodel is the most transformative — and most complex — residential project there is. Done well, it reconfigures a dated, chopped-up floor plan into the home you actually want, upgrades every system to current code, and resets the home's value for the next 30 years.
LRG Contractors Group manages whole-home remodels as a single, coordinated design–build project: design, structural engineering, every trade, permits, and finish, all under one contract and one schedule. That coordination is what keeps a project of this size on budget and on time.
From a full modernization of a mid-century block home in Seminole Heights to a top-to-bottom renovation of a waterfront property on Davis Islands, we scope the work to your goals, your timeline, and the home's resale ceiling — and harden it for Florida's climate along the way.

Financing options →Timeline
Whole-home remodels typically run 6–14 months of construction depending on size, plus design and permitting.
Permits & code
Whole-home remodels involve a full permit set — structural, electrical, plumbing, mechanical — plus Florida Building Code energy compliance and, in many jurisdictions, plan or historic review. We manage the entire process.
Key things to consider
- Live-in vs. move-out: large remodels are usually faster and cleaner if you relocate.
- Structure and systems first — finishes are the visible part but not where the value protection is.
- Hardening (impact windows, roof, exterior) during a gut is far cheaper than doing it later.
- Older homes reveal surprises at demo; a contingency keeps the project calm.
