What You Get When It's Done

You wake up in a bathroom that actually works. No more avoiding that shower because the tile’s coming loose or the fixtures barely function.

Your kitchen becomes the space you actually want to cook in. Counters that don’t chip when you set down a plate. Cabinets that close properly. Lighting that makes sense.

That deck you’ve been putting off? It’s finally safe for your family and friends. No more wobbly railings or boards that flex when someone walks across them. Just solid construction that handles whatever Seattle weather throws at it.

Building Contractor Process

How Your Project Actually Happens

First, we come look at what you’re dealing with. No guessing about costs or timelines until we see the actual situation. You get a clear estimate that covers the work, not a lowball number that grows later.

Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle permits and scheduling. You shouldn’t have to become an expert in building codes just to get your bathroom fixed. That’s what licensed contractors are for.

During construction, we show up when we say we will. Materials arrive on schedule. The work gets done in the order that makes sense, not whenever it’s convenient for the crew.

When it’s finished, you get a warranty that actually means something. We stand behind our work because we plan to stay in business in this area.

What's Included in Your Project

Every general construction project starts with proper planning. That means understanding what your space needs, not just what you think you want. Sometimes those are different things.

Materials matter more than most people realize. Using the right products for Seattle’s climate means your renovation lasts longer and performs better. Cheap materials cost more in the long run when they fail early.

The work itself follows building codes and best practices. Not because it’s required, but because it’s the difference between a renovation that adds value and one that creates problems. Proper installation, attention to details, and clean workmanship aren’t extras.

You get updates on progress, not silence until something goes wrong. Communication prevents most of the horror stories you hear about construction projects.

How do I know if a general contractor is properly licensed?

Check the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries contractor database. Every licensed contractor has a registration number you can verify online. Sea Renovation is licensed, bonded, and insured, which means we’ve met state requirements for insurance coverage and business practices. Don’t work with anyone who can’t provide proof of licensing. It’s not just about legality – unlicensed contractors can’t pull permits, and you’ll be liable for any problems that arise from improper work.
Most bathroom renovations take 2-4 weeks depending on scope and complexity. Demo usually happens in the first few days, followed by any plumbing or electrical rough-in work. Tile and fixture installation comes next, with final details like trim and paint at the end. Weather, permit delays, or unexpected issues like old plumbing problems can extend timelines. A good contractor gives you realistic expectations upfront and communicates when changes happen, not after you’re already frustrated about delays.
Kitchen renovation costs vary widely based on size, materials, and how much structural work is needed. A basic refresh might run $15,000-25,000, while full remodels with new cabinets, appliances, and layout changes often cost $40,000-80,000 or more. Seattle’s higher labor costs and permit requirements affect pricing. The key is getting detailed estimates that break down materials, labor, and permits so you understand where your money goes. Avoid contractors who give rough numbers without seeing your space.
Seattle’s wet climate demands specific materials and construction methods. Proper drainage, flashing, and moisture barriers aren’t optional – they’re essential for preventing rot and structural problems. Composite decking often performs better than traditional wood in this climate, though quality installation matters more than material choice. Building codes here require specific spacing for joists and posts to handle weather loads. A contractor familiar with local conditions knows these requirements and builds accordingly, not just to minimum standards.
Yes, but compare the actual scope of work, not just final numbers. Some contractors include everything in their bid, while others add costs later for permits, cleanup, or “unexpected” issues. Look for detailed breakdowns that specify materials, labor, timeline, and what happens if changes are needed. The lowest bid often costs more when corners get cut or additional charges appear. Focus on contractors who demonstrate they understand your project and can explain their approach clearly.
Reputable contractors typically offer at least a one-year warranty on workmanship, with longer coverage on specific items like roofing or major systems. Materials often have separate manufacturer warranties. The warranty should be written, not verbal, and specify what’s covered and how issues get resolved. More important than warranty length is the contractor’s reputation for standing behind their work. A company that’s been in business locally and plans to stay will honor their commitments better than fly-by-night operations offering unrealistic guarantees.
