FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Palmetto Home Remodels – Greenville & Anderson, SC
What types of remodeling projects do you handle?
We specialize in full home remodeling, kitchen & bath renovations, room additions, exterior upgrades (siding, decks, windows), and custom finishes. If you want to transform a space or refresh your home, we’re equipped to manage it.
Do you serve Greenville, Anderson, and surrounding Upstate SC?
Yes — we are proud to serve homeowners in Greenville County, Anderson County, and neighboring communities throughout the Upstate.
How do you price a remodeling project?
Every project is unique. We typically base pricing on:
- Scope of work (structural changes, demolition, finishes)
- Materials and fixtures selected
- Permits, inspections, and local compliance
- Labor and time involved
After an on-site evaluation, we provide a detailed written estimate or fixed-price proposal so you know what to expect up front.
Do I need to hire an architect or designer first?
That depends on the project. For major structural changes or additions, an architect or design professional may be needed. We can collaborate with your designer or recommend trusted professionals. For smaller remodels (kitchen, bath, finishes), we often handle design in-house.
Who handles permits and inspections?
We do. Part of our service includes managing all required permits, working with local building departments, and scheduling inspections. You won’t have to worry about red tape; we ensure your remodel meets Greenville / Anderson building codes.
How long will my remodeling project take?
- Duration depends on the scale and complexity.
- A bathroom or kitchen remodel might take 5 days to a couple of weeks.
- A full home remodel or addition can take several months
- During planning, we’ll present a project timeline and milestones to keep you informed.
Can I remain living in my home during construction?
In many cases yes, though it depends on which areas are affected (kitchen, bathrooms, structural changes). We aim to minimize disruption, stage work, and schedule tasks to maintain as much functionality as possible.
What happens if I decide to change something mid-project?
You’re allowed change orders, but they may affect cost and schedule. We’ll review your requested change, update the scope, cost, and timeline, and get your approval before proceeding.
Do you offer a warranty or guarantee on work?
Yes. We stand by the quality of our work. We provide warranties on workmanship and will address defects or issues that arise within an agreed warranty period. Ask for specifics in your contract.
What do I need to do to prepare my home before work starts?
We’ll guide you, but common helpful steps include:
- Clearing personal items, furniture, and décor from the work areas
- Moving valuables and fragile items
- Arranging alternate access routes, if needed
- Ensuring utilities (water, electricity) remain accessible or scheduled for temporary shutdowns
How do I choose the right remodeling contractor?
When evaluating contractors near Greenville & Anderson, consider:
- Local references and past project photos
- Proper licensing, bonding, and insurance
- Clear, written contracts and scope of work
- Transparent communication and project management
- Ability to handle permits, design, and site supervision
How will communication and updates be handled?
You’ll get a dedicated project manager who keeps you informed via regular check-ins, progress photos, and schedule updates. You’ll always know what’s happening and when.
How does remodeling increase the value of my home?
Well-planned upgrades (kitchen, bathrooms, energy efficiency, curb appeal) offer strong ROI. When done right, remodeling enhances livability today and resale value tomorrow.
Are estimates free?
Yes, our initial consultation and estimate are free. After assessing your home and discussing your goals, we provide a proposal that outlines costs, materials, and schedule before any work begins.
