Our process comprises three phases:

 

  1. Preliminary design and budgeting
  2. Comprehensive project evaluation (including complete design, scope of work, selections, etc) and a formal proposal.
  3. Construction and warranty discussions

 

Each phase consists of multiple steps, which we’ll describe in detail in our meetings. Call us to get started with our exceptional custom remodeling services.

Yes, there are still contractors out there who promise a “free quote” or “free estimate.” They’re usually worth what you pay for them. We’ve seen “free quotes” from competitors scribbled on a yellow notepad or delivered via text message! A free quote without a full design and/or a comprehensive project evaluation means that the contractor is guessing or assuming he knows what you envision. They are usually based on far too many assumptions to be of much use. Contractors who promise a “free quote” often don’t even get back to their customers at all. 

We hear this all the time: “A guy came and looked at our kitchen and said he’d get us a quote, but we never heard back from him.” That’s usually because a comprehensive and accurate quote requires a LOT of work and expense, and those guys don’t like working for free! Those contractors who do follow through usually provide a hasty quote based on far too many assumptions. Those incorrect assumptions lead to disappointments, conflicts, expensive do-overs, delays, or even lawsuits. 

With our custom remodeling services, you can expect the utmost professionalism. We’ll generate the plans and renderings, discuss the scope of work and product selections, and lay out additional processes to ensure that we deliver a comprehensive proposal with a fixed contract amount that you can rely on.

Remodel design consists of plans, 3D renderings, interior design, and product selections. We start our design process with an initial consultation in your home. Some preliminary design concepts are presented in our office. We will show you several different versions of your project in an interactive 3D model using our state-of-the-art CAD software. At that meeting, we’ll take your suggestions and make edits to the design while you watch and give us feedback. Our customers say it’s a lot of fun!

If you like the way things are headed, we’ll ask you to approve a design agreement so that we can get started with product selections with our interior designer. From here, we’ll continue the plans until they’re just what you want and get started on the necessary work to initiate your project. Whether you’re searching for home addition contractors or a reliable kitchen remodeler, CCH Design | Remodel provides all this and more!

So glad you asked! This is what sets us apart from most remodeling contractors in the valley. Full-service means we’ll handle all of the design and construction aspects of your remodel, including the design (plans, interior design, product selections, etc), expert project management, permitting, performing the work (both in-house and with trusted subcontractors), and taking care of warranty issues. 

From start to finish, we have you covered. You won’t have to find a draftsman to design your plan, call subcontractors, clean up, round up your materials, apply for permits, etc. Let our custom remodeling services make your dream home possible!

Yes and no. We’re happy to provide some preliminary budgeting in the form of a ballpark estimate based on our history with similar projects as yours. We can give a price range over the phone, but we’ll have a better idea after being in your home during our initial consultation and getting more details. Initial consultations are complimentary, so contact us to set one up. 

To provide an accurate, comprehensive quote you can depend on, we need plans, selections, scope of work, and many more details. Don’t worry, we’ll handle all that. The costs of our custom remodeling services vary depending on the project, so we’ll present a design agreement to you when we know more about the project. Call us for more details.

Our prices are competitive with other full-service remodelers in the valley with comparable service and quality. Of course, we really think we do it a little better! Most of our major kitchen remodels fall between $75-150,000, including the overall design, as well as materials, cabinets, appliances, stone countertops, and more.

Most complete master bathroom remodels fall between $50-100,000. Additions depend a great deal on how they’re designed, so give our home addition contractors a call for additional pricing. See the annual Remodeling Magazine Cost vs. Value report for a comparison of prices in Boise and across the country.

The prices you see on HGTV, Houzz, or Google—such as $30,000 for a kitchen remodel or $15,000 for a master bathroom—are often misleading. These figures usually represent DIY projects where homeowners handle much of the labor, bargain-hunt for materials, and take on the stress of managing contractors and timelines themselves. What you don’t see are the compromises, unforeseen costs, and countless hours of work behind those “budget-friendly” transformations.

On HGTV, the beautiful before-and-after shots often rely on clever editing, sponsored materials, and unrealistic budgets. At CCH Design | Remodel, we deliver custom remodeling services tailored to your needs, ensuring high-quality materials, professional craftsmanship, and enduring value. According to Zillow, the average kitchen remodel has a 59% ROI nationally. With us, you’re investing in a home upgrade that’s designed to enhance both your lifestyle and your property value.

We specialize in larger remodeling projects and aren’t set up for small, handyman-style repairs. Simple fixes, like patching drywall or replacing a single tile, don’t align with our resources and expertise. Think of it this way: just as a handyman may not be equipped to manage a full kitchen or bathroom remodel, we’re best suited for comprehensive transformations that require detailed planning and expert execution.

That said, don’t hesitate to reach out! Some projects you think are small might involve complexities that require professional oversight. If your project isn’t a fit for us, we’re happy to provide guidance or refer you to someone who can help. When it comes to kitchens, bathrooms, home additions, or custom renovations, CCH Design | Remodel is your trusted partner for turning big ideas into reality.

Yes, changes are possible during the remodeling process, but we strongly recommend finalizing decisions during the design phase. This helps avoid delays, unexpected costs, or disruptions to the project timeline. If changes are necessary, our team will work closely with you to implement them while keeping everything on track. Open communication and flexibility are key to ensuring a successful outcome, even when adjustments arise.
