Fort Worth has a lot of good old houses. The bungalows around Fairmount and the Near Southside, the brick homes in Ryan Place, the mid-century ranches in Wedgwood and Westcliff, the older farmhouses out toward Aledo and Weatherford. Folks buy these homes for the character, then realize the wiring is from another era, the layout […]
Most folks who call us about a “full renovation” don’t actually need one. And some who ask for a “quick bathroom update” are sitting on a house that really does need the whole thing pulled apart. Figuring out which camp you’re in before you spend a dime is the most useful thing you can do, […]
This is one of the first questions I get when a homeowner sits down to plan a bathroom remodel here in Fort Worth. Do you keep the tub, or do you tear it out and put in a big walk-in shower? There’s no single right answer. It depends on who lives in the house, how […]
If you are planning a bathroom remodel in Fort Worth, the contractor you pick matters more than the tile you pick. I have been remodeling homes here since 2001, and the difference between a job that goes smoothly and one that drags on for months usually comes down to whether the person running it actually […]
I get this question on almost every kitchen walkthrough in Fort Worth: “If I put money into this kitchen, am I getting it back when I sell?” It’s a fair question, and the honest answer is that it depends on what you do, what your house is worth now, and what the homes around you […]
Flooring is one of the first things people ask me about when we sit down to plan a kitchen. It makes sense. The floor takes a beating in a kitchen, it covers a lot of square footage, and once it’s down you live with it for fifteen or twenty years. Pick wrong and you’re either […]
A kitchen remodel is one of the bigger checks a homeowner writes, and who you hand it to matters as much as the cabinets you pick. I’m Chris with Salvation Home Remodeling. We’ve been working in Fort Worth since 2001, and over the years I’ve walked into a lot of kitchens to fix problems that […]
A small kitchen doesn’t mean you have to settle for a cramped, frustrating cooking space. With the right planning and a smart design approach, even the most compact kitchen can deliver on both function and style. Whether you’re working with a galley layout, an aging apartment kitchen, or a builder-grade setup that never quite worked, […]
Countertops are the one decision in a kitchen or bathroom remodel that people circle back to over and over, and for good reason. They are the surface you touch every day, they take up a big share of the budget, and they set the tone for the whole room. I have walked a lot of […]
Most people call us about a home addition for one of two reasons. Either the family outgrew the house and moving doesn’t make sense, or they love the neighborhood and don’t want to leave it. Both are good reasons to build instead of buy. But an addition is a different animal than a kitchen or […]
