Home Remodeling in Tempe AZ, Kitchen, Bathrooms, and Living Spaces Redesigned Under One Roof

Tempe homes from the 1970s through the 1990s often have closed-off layouts and rooms that no longer fit the way families live. We plan every room in 3D, align the full scope and pricing before demolition, and assign one project manager who stays through completion.

  • Design, materials, and pricing finalized in 3D before a single wall opens
  • Dedicated project manager assigned from day one through final walkthrough
  • Room-by-room sequencing planned before construction starts, not figured out as you go
  • Slab foundation plumbing scoped and priced upfront, no mid-project adds
  • All trades coordinated in-house, one team, one contract

Whole Home Remodeling in Tempe

A whole home remodel in Tempe typically covers the kitchen, one or two bathrooms, and common areas like an entertainment wall or laundry room. We run a single design-build process across all rooms, one in-house designer, one 3D design approval covering every space, and one fixed construction price before demolition begins.

On slab-foundation homes common throughout Tempe, any plumbing relocation requires cutting through the concrete slab. We scope that work during planning, not after walls are opened. That keeps the project on schedule and the final price aligned with what was approved.

The scope typically covers room-by-room sequencing across kitchen, bathrooms, and living spaces, with a cohesive material palette selected during the design phase. To learn more about how we plan and build whole home projects, visit our whole home remodeling page .

Dedicated project management coordinates all trades and provides structured communication from start to completion.

How Much Does a Whole Home Remodel Cost in Tempe?

Whole home remodeling in Tempe ranges from $150,000 to $300,000 depending on the number of rooms in scope and what each room requires.

The largest cost driver is scope: a project covering the kitchen, two bathrooms, and an entertainment wall will be priced differently than a project that adds flooring throughout and a laundry room.

Within that range, the kitchen carries the most weight because cabinetry alone can represent 60 percent of the kitchen budget.

Slab foundation homes require concrete cutting any time drain lines move, which adds cost to bathroom scopes. A cohesive material palette selected across all rooms during the planning phase helps control costs by avoiding mid-project changes.

We publish fixed construction pricing only after the full design, material selections, and scope of work are finalized. For more context on what drives remodeling costs, see our remodeling cost concerns page .

Remodeling Tempe Homes: What We See On the Job

Tempe's 1970s and 1980s ranch homes and two-story builds share a common structural condition: slab-on-grade foundations throughout most of the city.

When a homeowner wants to reconfigure the kitchen layout or move the master bath plumbing, that work involves cutting the concrete slab to reroute drain lines.

 We scope and price that work during the planning phase so there are no discoveries once demolition starts.

Hard water from Tempe's municipal supply leaves mineral buildup on fixtures and inside supply lines over time. On older homes in areas like the Kyrene Corridor and Warner Ranch, we regularly replace original galley kitchen layouts with open floor plans and refresh plumbing fixtures that show years of hard water wear.

The closed kitchen layout and original carpet that were standard in 1970s and 1980s builds are the starting point for most of the whole home remodels we complete in Tempe.

Why Tempe Homeowners Choose PHR for Whole Home Remodeling

The three things that matter most on a multi-room project: a single point of contact who knows every room, a fixed price you approved before demolition, and a design process that resolves every material and layout decision before work begins.

PHR assigns one dedicated project manager to each whole home project. That person coordinates all trades, tracks the room-by-room sequencing, and communicates progress throughout. You do not manage the schedule or chase subcontractors.

Every finish, fixture, and layout decision is made during the Planning and Design phase and reflected in the construction agreement before the first wall opens. The BuilderTrend client portal gives you real-time project updates throughout construction.


Frequently Asked Questions About Home Remodeling in Tempe

How Much Does Home Remodeling Cost In Tempe?

Home remodeling in Tempe typically starts at $150K-$300K for whole-home projects with Phoenix Home Remodeling. Kitchen remodels are $50K-$100K, primary bathrooms are $40K-$75K, guest bathrooms are $18K-$25K, and shower remodels are $15K-$40K. The final price depends on the rooms involved, layout changes, selections, and the level of finish you want. PHR uses a planning-first design-build process, so your final price is provided only after design and selections are complete. That defined scope helps Tempe homeowners understand what is included before construction begins, whether the home is near ASU, South Tempe, or along Rural Road.

How Long Does A Home Remodel Take In Tempe?

A whole-home remodel typically takes 1.5-3 months for construction after the planning and design phase is complete. The design phase usually takes about 6-10 weeks because PHR works through layout, selections, 3D renderings, scope, and planned pricing before construction starts. Individual project timelines vary by space, with kitchens usually taking 4-7 weeks, primary bathrooms 5-7 weeks, guest bathrooms 3-5 weeks, and shower remodels 1-3 weeks. The goal is to make construction more predictable by resolving key decisions before work begins in your Tempe home.

What Is Included In A Whole-Home Remodel?

A whole-home remodel can include kitchens, bathrooms, living spaces, laundry rooms, flooring, interior layouts, cabinetry, countertops, lighting, tile, plumbing fixtures, and finish selections. PHR focuses on interior remodeling and coordinates design and construction under one design-build team. During Feasibility, Planning, and Design, the team helps define which areas should be included, how the rooms should function together, and how selections support the final design. This is especially helpful for Tempe homes with older layouts near Maple-Ash, Broadmor, or neighborhoods close to Kiwanis Park where homeowners want a more cohesive interior plan.

How Does Phoenix Home Remodeling Plan A Tempe Remodel?

Phoenix Home Remodeling plans a Tempe remodel through a Feasibility, Planning, and Design phase before construction begins. This phase usually takes about 6-10 weeks and includes discovery, measuring, layout planning, selections, 3D renderings, and a defined scope. Design first. Build second. That process helps you see the proposed result and understand the final price before construction begins. Instead of separating designer and contractor responsibilities, PHR uses one team from concept to completion, which helps reduce communication gaps for homeowners remodeling near Tempe Town Lake, Mill Avenue, or South Tempe.

Do I See 3D Renderings Before Construction Starts?

Yes, PHR provides 3D renderings before construction begins so you can see your space before a single wall is touched. The renderings help you review cabinetry, tile, fixtures, layout changes, and design details during the planning phase. They are especially helpful when remodeling several rooms at once because you can see how the kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room, and living areas relate to one another. For Tempe homeowners, this makes it easier to make confident decisions before construction, whether the project is a focused kitchen remodel or a larger interior transformation.

When Is The Final Price Set For My Remodel?

The final price is set after design and selections are complete. Phoenix Home Remodeling does not ask clients to move into construction with vague allowances or an unfinished scope. The team first develops the design, confirms product selections, reviews the construction details, and then provides fixed pricing based on the completed plan. This planning-first approach is why PHR has a 2.1% change order rate. Changes can still happen if a homeowner requests them during the project, but the process is built to reduce avoidable surprises before work begins in the home.

What Makes A Design-Build Remodel Different?

A design-build remodel uses one coordinated team for both design and construction. With PHR, the same company guides concept development, selections, scope, pricing, project management, and construction. This differs from a separated process where homeowners coordinate designers, vendors, and builders independently. One team from concept to completion helps reduce confusion, especially on multi-room remodels where kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and living space decisions affect each other. Tempe homeowners often choose this process when they want a remodel that is planned in detail before construction begins rather than pieced together as the project moves forward.

Who Manages My Remodeling Project?

A dedicated project manager manages your remodeling project during construction. This person coordinates schedules, communicates updates, answers project questions, and helps keep the work aligned with the approved design and scope. PHR also gives homeowners access to a homeowner portal where project information, communication, and updates can be organized in one place. For Tempe residents balancing work, family, ASU-area commuting, or travel around Loop 101 and US 60, having a central point of contact can make the remodeling experience feel more organized from start to finish.

Can You Remodel Kitchens And Bathrooms Together?

Yes, PHR can remodel kitchens and bathrooms together as part of a larger home remodeling plan. Combining rooms during one planning process helps the design team coordinate finishes, storage, lighting, tile, cabinetry, and traffic flow across the home. Kitchen remodels are $50K-$100K, primary bathrooms are $40K-$75K, and guest bathrooms are $18K-$25K. When multiple rooms are included, the schedule and pricing are based on the full defined scope. This approach works well for Tempe homes where owners want the kitchen, baths, and living spaces to feel intentionally connected.

Can You Update Older Homes Near ASU Or Downtown Tempe?

Yes, PHR can update older Tempe homes with interior remodeling that improves function, layout, storage, and finish quality. Many homes near ASU, downtown Tempe, and the Maple-Ash area have layouts that can benefit from better kitchen flow, improved bathroom layouts, more useful laundry spaces, and coordinated interior finishes. During the design phase, the team studies how the home is used today and how the new design should support daily life. The result is a remodel planned around the homeowner’s priorities, not a one-size-fits-all package.

What Remodeling Services Are Available For South Tempe Homes?

South Tempe homeowners can work with PHR on interior remodeling services such as kitchens, bathrooms, showers, laundry rooms, living spaces, entertainment walls, and whole-home remodels. Projects may include cabinetry, countertops, tile, flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, storage improvements, and layout planning. Homes near Warner Road, McClintock Drive, Elliot Road, and Kiwanis Park often have strong neighborhood character, so the design phase focuses on improving daily function while respecting the way each home is used. PHR’s project minimum is $15,000, and whole-home remodels are typically $150K-$300K.

How Do Change Orders Work During A Remodel?

Change orders are handled as documented adjustments when the homeowner requests a change to the approved scope. PHR’s planning-first process is designed to reduce avoidable changes by completing design, selections, and pricing before construction starts. That is one reason PHR has a 2.1% change order rate. If you decide to add work, change a selection, or revise a design detail after approval, the team documents the request and reviews the impact before moving forward. This gives Tempe homeowners a clear process for decisions during construction without disrupting the overall project structure.

Is Phoenix Home Remodeling Licensed For Remodeling Work?

Yes, Phoenix Home Remodeling is licensed under ROC 313636. The company is a Chandler-based design-build remodeler serving homeowners in Tempe and nearby East Valley communities. PHR was founded in 2017 and focuses on interior remodeling projects such as kitchens, bathrooms, showers, laundry rooms, entertainment walls, and whole-home remodels. The company also has 200+ reviews, giving prospective clients a broad view of past homeowner experiences. For Tempe homeowners, licensing, process, reviews, and a dedicated remodeling team can all be part of deciding whether PHR is a fit for the project.

What Warranty Comes With A Phoenix Home Remodeling Project?

Phoenix Home Remodeling provides a 2-year warranty on remodeling work. The warranty is part of the company’s broader process, which also includes detailed planning, 3D renderings, fixed pricing after selections, dedicated project management, and homeowner portal communication. Because the team designs first and builds second, many product and scope decisions are addressed before construction begins. The warranty gives homeowners an added layer of support after the project is complete. If you are remodeling a Tempe kitchen, bathroom, shower, or larger interior space, the warranty is one part of the overall client experience.

Can I View Past Remodeling Projects Before Scheduling?

Yes, you can view past remodeling projects before scheduling a consultation. PHR shares completed project photos so homeowners can see examples of kitchens, bathrooms, showers, living spaces, and other interior remodels. Reviewing the portfolio can help you identify design preferences, material ideas, storage needs, and layout possibilities before your first conversation. You can view examples at PHR’s before-and-after remodeling gallery. For Tempe homeowners, this is a useful way to begin thinking through the style and function you want before entering the 6-10 week planning and design phase.

How Do I Start A Home Remodeling Project In Tempe?

You start a home remodeling project in Tempe by scheduling a consultation with Phoenix Home Remodeling. The first step is to discuss the rooms involved, your goals, timeline expectations, and whether the project aligns with PHR’s design-build process and $15,000 project minimum. From there, qualified projects move into Feasibility, Planning, and Design, where layout, selections, 3D renderings, and final pricing are developed before construction begins. You can begin at PHR’s schedule consultation page and share details about your Tempe home and the spaces you want to remodel.
