Past builder-grade
Replacing standard kitchens, baths and finishes with selections and layouts chosen for how you actually live.

New Castle County / Since 2006
Newer houses in fast-growing developments, where the structure is sound and the finishes were chosen by a builder rather than by you.
Working in Middletown
Middletown and the surrounding southern New Castle County communities have grown quickly, and a large share of the housing stock is relatively new.
The work here is rarely about failure. It is about upgrade: replacing the standard-issue kitchen, finishing the basement the builder left open, and adding the outdoor space that turns a large lot into somewhere you actually spend time.
The housing stock
Common requests are kitchen and bath upgrades, finished basements, composite decks, screened porches and paver patios.
Because the houses are newer, projects here tend to move predictably — fewer surprises behind the drywall, cleaner structure to work with. That makes it easier to hold a schedule, which matters when a family is planning around it.

Composite decks, screened porches, paver patios and pergolas that connect properly to the house and drain correctly.

Local questions
Yes. Middletown and the surrounding southern New Castle County communities are within the regular service area. Call (302) 731-7302 to confirm a specific address.
Yes — finished basements are regular work, including egress requirements, drainage and the mechanical and electrical work that comes with converting the space.
Both, along with screened porches and pergolas. Drainage and grading are scoped as part of the work rather than treated as an afterthought, which matters more than most homeowners expect.
Often yes, because the structure is sound and the constraint is purely the original specification. That usually means a cleaner, more predictable project than the same work in an older home.
