Tempe Home Remodeling: Kitchens, Bathrooms, and Whole Home Interiors

Tempe has two very different sides. Newer master-planned neighborhoods in South Tempe sit alongside 1950s to 1980s ranch homes in the Kyrene Corridor, Warner Ranch, McClintock Ranch, and Tempe Diablo. Most of our Tempe clients are families and empty nesters modernizing a primary home, not flipping rentals near ASU.

A lot of those older homes are on slab foundations, which changes what a kitchen or bathroom remodel actually costs once you start moving plumbing. We plan every detail in 3D before we pour a dollar into construction, so you see the finished space and agree on the fixed price before demo starts.

We worked with a South Tempe family to remodel a kitchen, primary bathroom, and entertainment wall in the same home, reconfiguring the main living area around how they actually use it.

Home Remodeling Services in Tempe, AZ

We handle kitchens, bathrooms, showers, and whole home interiors for Tempe homeowners. Every project runs through our full design phase first: in-home measurements, material selections, and 3D renderings before we give you a fixed construction price.

Most of our Tempe work is interior only. Ranch homes in older parts of Tempe often need layout reconfiguration, not just new finishes, and South Tempe homes usually need the builder-grade finishes replaced and the primary bath or kitchen pulled into the current decade.

Tempe Neighborhoods We Serve

We work throughout Tempe with a focus on the neighborhoods where homeowners are updating primary residences, not student rentals. That includes South Tempe, the Kyrene Corridor, Warner Ranch, Tempe Diablo, McClintock Ranch, and the Fulton Ranch area bordering Chandler.

If your home is in central Tempe near ASU or in a student-rental stretch, we are probably not the right fit. Our work is full-scope interior remodeling for homeowners staying in the home, not quick cosmetic flips.

What Makes Remodeling in Tempe Different

Most older Tempe homes sit on concrete slab foundations, which matters a lot the moment you want to move a shower drain, relocate a toilet, or shift a kitchen sink. Any plumbing change in the wet areas means cutting the slab, which adds cost and days to the schedule.

We flag this during the design phase so you can make an informed call on whether moving plumbing is worth it for your layout, or whether keeping the existing drain locations gets you 95 percent of what you want for meaningfully less money.

The other factor in Tempe is home age. A 1970s ranch in the Kyrene Corridor behaves very differently from a 2010s South Tempe build during demolition, and we plan the project accordingly.

Recent project: A Tempe homeowner converted an older primary bathroom into a modern walk-in shower layout, and the slab plumbing questions got answered during design, not after demo.

Fixed pricing after design. Your construction price is locked once you sign the agreement. We do not raise it mid-project.

Frequently Asked Questions About Remodeling in Tempe

How long does a kitchen remodel take in Tempe?

A full kitchen remodel in Tempe typically takes 8 to 12 weeks of construction time. Add 4 to 6 weeks of design before construction starts, so the total timeline from signed agreement to finished kitchen is usually 3 to 5 months. Scope changes like removing a wall or relocating plumbing add time. We lock the schedule in before construction so you know what to expect week by week.


Can you remodel an older Tempe home built in the 1970s?

Yes, a large share of our Tempe work is in 1950s through 1980s homes in areas like Tempe Diablo, McClintock Ranch, and the Kyrene Corridor. Older homes sometimes reveal surprises once demolition starts, which is why our in-home assessment happens before pricing. Most issues get caught during design, not during construction, so the fixed price actually stays fixed.


Do slab foundations affect bathroom remodel cost in Tempe?

Yes, moving plumbing fixtures in a Tempe bathroom adds cost because most homes sit on concrete slabs. Relocating a toilet, shower drain, or sink means cutting the slab, which adds time and labor. If your remodel keeps the existing drain locations, you skip that cost entirely. We flag this during design so you can weigh layout changes against budget.


Do I need HOA approval for a remodel in Tempe?

Most Tempe HOAs do not require approval for interior remodeling work. HOA rules typically cover exterior changes like windows, doors, roofing, and landscaping. Since PHR does interior-only remodeling (kitchens, bathrooms, whole home interiors), the HOA question almost never applies. If something in your scope crosses into HOA territory, we help you navigate it.
