Process
Our Process
How a Typical Project Runs
Remodeling work disrupts your daily life, but clear organization keeps stress down. We follow four practical steps from start to finish.

Initial Walkthrough
We come out to your house, look at the existing setup, talk about what you want to change, take hard measurements, and look for potential framing or utility obstacles.

Planning & Materials
We draft a detailed scope of work, help you choose tile, flooring, fixtures, and cabinetry, and provide an honest estimate with line-item pricing.

Framing & Installation
Our crew arrives on schedule, sets up dust containment curtains, tears out old work safely, and constructs your new space according to code.

Final Punch List Walkthrough
Before packing up our tools for good, we walk every square foot with you to check paint edges, hardware alignment, and light switches.

Common Questions
How long does a renovation usually take?
It depends entirely on what we are touching. A single bathroom update or kitchen tear-out usually takes about three to six weeks once materials arrive on site. Larger jobs—like adding a full primary suite, pouring a garage pad, or doing a full main-floor overhaul—can run anywhere from two to four months. Weather delays and material lead times can occasionally shift schedules, but we give you a clear project calendar up front and update you weekly on progress.
What goes into your estimates?
We write detailed, line-item proposals so you can see exactly where your money goes. The estimate covers demo work, dumpster fees, framing materials, plumbing and electrical sub-trades, finish items, and permit costs. We avoid broad lump-sum numbers that hide details. If we tear open a wall and find dry rot or outdated knob-and-tube wiring, we pause, show you the issue in person, and agree on a cost fix before moving forward.
Do you work right here in Felton?
We work in town and across neighboring communities in Kent County every day. Working locally means we know the inspectors, understand local setback rules, and can get out to your house quickly if you have a question during construction.
What options do I have for custom tile or layout choices?
You have full control over fixture selection and finish details. We guide you through choices like quartz versus granite, porcelain tile options, custom cabinet configurations, layout flow, and trim packages. We help you pick materials that match your taste while making sure they fit your house structure and long-term durability needs.
What happens after the crew leaves?
When construction finishes and the final walkthrough is complete, we leave you with care instructions for new surface finishes like natural stone, hardwoods, or grout lines. If a cabinet hinge loosens up or a trim seam needs a touch-up after the wood settles over the first season, give us a call and we will swing by to take care of it.
Will my project need county permits?
Any structural modification, electrical panel change, main plumbing rerun, or exterior addition requires official building permits from Kent County or municipal authorities. We take care of drawing plans, submitting paperwork, paying initial permit fees, and hosting the building inspector at critical milestones like rough-in framing and final electric.
Can we stay in the house while work is happening?
For targeted updates like a single bath, a basement finish, or a back deck build, most families stay right at home. We set up plastic dust walls, protect your existing floors with runner boards, and clean up workspace trash daily. If you are doing a whole-house overhaul where water lines or main electric panels are shut off for days at a time, staying off-site for a week or two is usually much more comfortable.
Is it better to hire a general contractor or sub things out myself?
Managing separate plumbers, framers, electricians, dry wallers, and tile setters on your own is practically a full-time job. Missed handoffs can leave trade crews waiting around, driving up costs fast. As your general contractor, K&R Construction takes full responsibility for scheduling trade order, pulling permits, inspecting quality at every step, and keeping the job moving without delays.
