You Might Be Wondering...

Is this a smart use of our budget before retirement?

Yes — we help you weigh resale value, comfort, and long-term function to make the right call.

Is this a good return on investment before I downsize?

We help you plan remodels that maximize daily enjoyment and resale value. You don’t have to choose one over the other.

My spouse isn’t convinced we should spend this much

We work with couples every day to design options and budgets that make sense for both partners. It’s a conversation — not a pressure sale.

I don’t want a long, disruptive construction process

You won’t get one. We create realistic timelines and keep you informed every step of the way.

Do I have to move out during the remodel?

Most of the time, no. We set up clean work areas and keep daily disruption minimal.

How do I know you won’t leave a mess every day?

Our crew is small and personal. We treat your home with the respect we'd treat our own. We clean up at the end of every workday — no surprises when you walk into your kitchen.

I’m not sure I want to commit yet

Dave and his team helped us with 3 bathroom renovations and some other much needed repair work. Our master bathroom is fantastic and the work done to update the other two bathrooms was great! I would not hesitate to use them again. A really nice and professional group of individuals.

Our Process

Navigating a remodel doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With DMB Contracting, it’s a journey we take together—focused, seamless, and even fun. Here’s how we transform your vision into reality with clarity, confidence, and craftsmanship every step of the way.

1

Start with an Estimate

Every project begins with a conversation. We take the time to learn about your goals, your space, and what inspires you. From there, we provide a clear and detailed estimate to lay the foundation for everything to come. It’s your first glimpse into the process, and we’re here to answer any questions you have upfront.

2

Nail Down the Design

Once you’ve given the green light, it’s time to design. Using advanced 3D rendering software, we create a detailed plan of your space, including layouts, cabinets, lighting, and more. This is where ideas become tangible, and together, we fine-tune every detail until the design perfectly reflects your vision.

3

Choose the Perfect Materials

Your space should look as good as it feels, and the right materials make all the difference. We guide you through selecting flooring, tile, cabinetry, countertops, and more. To ensure you’re confident in your choices, we’ll even connect you with trusted showrooms so you can see and feel the products firsthand.

4

Ready, Set, Go!

With the design finalized and materials selected, our team gets to work turning your vision into reality. We handle everything—scheduling, coordination, and execution—so you can sit back and watch your dream space come to life. By the time we’re done, you’ll have a home that’s as beautiful as it is functional, and every bit as unique as you imagined.
