Decatur Craftsmanship & Precision
Reimagining Decatur homes from the frame up
We take historic bungalows, mid-century ranches, and traditional residences down to the structural core, transforming compartmentalized layouts into cohesive, light-filled living spaces built for modern everyday life.

Load-bearing wall removal, engineered steel beams, and open-concept architectural framing that respects your home's foundational integrity.
MEP modernization
Complete electrical service upgrades, high-efficiency HVAC zone integration, and modern plumbing manifolds for silent, reliable performance.
Historic preservation detailing
Careful replication of period millwork, authentic Decatur bungalow trim profiles, and architectural masonry integration.

Planning an expansion in Decatur?
We review local zoning, setback requirements, and architectural feasibility.
Custom Craftsman Integration
Engineered to preserve original rooflines and neighborhood architectural guidelines.
Transforming lower levels into light-filled living spaces
Older Decatur foundations present unique architectural challenges—from below-grade moisture and low joist clearances to strict egress requirements. We solve each with perimeter drainage, slimline mechanical bulkheads, and custom window wells that bring genuine daylight into your lower level.
Private lower-level living with full bathrooms, walk-in closets, sound dampening, and code-compliant Decatur egress windows for natural light.
Average Decatur Added Value: +20–25% Home Equity
Finished square footage substantially lowers cost-per-foot relative to ground-up additions.

We provide comprehensive residential remodeling spanning structural reconfiguration, second-story and ground-floor home additions, finished basement conversions, and full interior overhauls. For structural reconfigurations, we remove load-bearing partitions, engineer flush LVL/steel ceiling beams, and create open-concept kitchen-living layouts that respect architectural balance. Our home additions range from bump-out primary suites and scullery expansions to full second-story additions with roofline integration. Basement scopes transform underutilized daylight or walk-out basements into legal guest suites, home offices, and media rooms complete with subfloor waterproofing, egress windows, and quiet HVAC zoning. Throughout the interior, we replace outdated millwork, install bespoke cabinetry, level settling subfloors, and replace all rough infrastructure from plumbing supply lines to 200-amp electrical panels.
