What Your Space Could Actually Become

You know that feeling when you walk into a friend’s newly renovated kitchen and think “I want this”? That’s what happens when construction is done right. Not just functional, but the kind of space that makes you want to spend time there.

Your bathroom becomes the retreat you actually look forward to using instead of the cramped space you rush through. Your kitchen transforms into the heart of your home where family naturally gathers. Your deck becomes the outdoor living space you’ve been talking about for years.

The difference isn’t just in how it looks. It’s in how it works for your daily life, how it holds up over time, and how it adds real value to your home. When you work with a licensed general contractor who knows what they’re doing, you get spaces that function better and last longer.

Residential Construction Process

Here's How We Actually Get Things Done

First, you’ll get a consultation where we look at your space and listen to what you want to accomplish. No pressure, no immediate sales pitch – just an honest assessment of what’s possible and what it takes to get there.

Once you decide to move forward, we create a clear plan with realistic timelines. You’ll know what happens when, what to expect during construction, and how long each phase takes. No surprises, no vague “it’ll be done soon” updates.

During construction, we focus on quality work and keeping you informed. You’re not left wondering what’s happening or when you’ll have your space back. We clean up after ourselves, respect your home, and handle problems before they become bigger issues.

When the project’s complete, you get a warranty on the work. If something isn’t right, we come back and fix it. That’s what being accountable looks like.

What You Get With Every Project

Every general construction project includes proper permits, licensed work, and full insurance coverage. You’re not taking risks with unlicensed contractors or wondering if you’re covered if something goes wrong.

In Ravenna and the greater Seattle area, many homes were built 20-40 years ago and need updates that go beyond cosmetic changes. Kitchen renovations often require electrical updates, plumbing modifications, and structural considerations. Bathroom remodels frequently involve addressing old plumbing, improving ventilation, and updating electrical to current codes.

Deck construction requires understanding Seattle’s weather patterns, proper drainage, and materials that hold up to Pacific Northwest conditions. We know which materials work best in this climate and how to build structures that last.

You also get clear communication throughout the project. No disappearing for days, no vague explanations about delays, no surprise costs that weren’t discussed upfront.

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

In Washington state, general contractors must have a valid contractor’s license through the Department of Labor & Industries. You can verify any contractor’s license status, bond, and insurance on the L&I website using their registration number or business name. Licensed contractors are required to carry liability insurance and a surety bond that protects you if something goes wrong. Never work with unlicensed contractors – you have no legal protection if they damage your property, get injured, or don’t complete the work. Sea Renovation maintains all required licensing, bonding, and insurance because protecting your investment isn’t negotiable.
Most kitchen renovations take 3-6 weeks depending on the scope of work, while bathroom remodels typically take 2-4 weeks. The timeline depends on whether you’re doing cosmetic updates or full renovations involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes. Permit approval can add 1-2 weeks to the front end of the project. Custom orders for cabinets, countertops, or specialty fixtures often have longer lead times, especially in the Seattle area where demand is high. During your consultation, you’ll get a realistic timeline based on your specific project scope, current material availability, and permit requirements.
Yes, most deck construction in Ravenna requires building permits through King County. Decks attached to your home, decks over 30 inches high, or decks larger than 200 square feet typically need permits. The permit process ensures your deck meets structural requirements, setback rules, and safety codes. Skipping permits can cause problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. A licensed general contractor handles the permit application, knows current building codes, and ensures inspections are scheduled at the right times. The permit process usually takes 2-3 weeks, but it protects you from costly problems later.
Construction costs in the Seattle area are higher than national averages due to local labor costs, permit fees, and material prices. Kitchen renovations typically range from $25,000-$75,000 depending on size and finishes. Bathroom remodels usually cost $15,000-$40,000. Deck construction runs $25-$50 per square foot for quality materials and proper installation. These ranges vary significantly based on your specific choices, existing conditions, and project complexity. During your consultation, you’ll get pricing based on your actual space and goals, not generic estimates. Quality work costs more upfront but saves money long-term through fewer repairs and higher home value.
Start with licensing and insurance – never consider unlicensed contractors regardless of price. Check references from recent projects and look at actual work quality, not just online reviews. Ask about their experience with your specific type of project and whether they handle permits and inspections. Get detailed written estimates that break down materials, labor, and timelines. Pay attention to communication during the estimate process – contractors who are hard to reach or vague about details will likely be the same during your project. Choose based on competence, reliability, and clear communication rather than just the lowest price.
Reputable general contractors provide warranties on their workmanship, typically 1-2 years depending on the type of work. This covers installation issues, structural problems, or defects in the construction work itself. Material warranties are separate and come from manufacturers – things like cabinet hardware, fixtures, or roofing materials. Your warranty should be clearly explained before work begins and provided in writing when the project is complete. Licensed contractors are also bonded, which provides additional protection if they don’t honor their warranty obligations. Always understand what’s covered, for how long, and how to get warranty service before signing any contract.
