Renaissance Builders is a full service general contracting company located in Franklin County. We perform all phases of construction for residential, commercial and industrial projects. We've been in business since 1976. Over the years we've built a reputation for quality work and good problem solving abilities.
We provide design/build services for large and small residential projects, or we work with your plans or architect to provide complete turnkey service. We also do commercial and light industrial work.
If you like your neighborhood and there's room to make changes to your home, staying put and renovating may be your best option. When you purchase a new home you often end up renovating it anyway. If you've lived in your home for a while you already know what does and doesn't work, so you know what needs to be fixed. Building new may give you exactly what you want, but it is usually more expensive than fixing what you already own.
The top two are kitchen and bath renovations, and energy improvements. Both can improve the performance and therefore the value of your home.
We think the best time to renovate your home is when you realize that it doesn't work for you the way it is. Material prices and interest rates will always fluctuate. Right now some material prices are on the rise, and interest rates are fairly favorable. If you wait for the perfect combination before you renovate, you may look back in 5 or 10 years and find you're still living in a house that doesn't suit your needs. Figure out what you can afford to spend, find a good contractor to work with, and makes the changes to your home now that will improve the quality of your life for years to come.
We have found that the best energy efficiency improvements to reduce energy costs are insulation and air sealing; and updating an inefficient HVAC system. Make sure you work with a contractor that understands the concept of a good building envelope and proper ventilation. You don't want to trade one problem for another one.
In the construction end of the real estate market we see more people willing to spend money to remodel their homes than we did a couple of years ago. People will always do the renovations that they have to do, such as necessary repairs and money saving improvements, but lately we've seen more people willing to do the projects that they want to do. Kitchen and bath renovations, and master suite or family room additions are on the rise again.
Interest rates are still pretty favorable.
