Project timelines vary depending on the size and scope of the remodel. A kitchen or bathroom renovation may take a few weeks, while a whole-home remodel can span several months. Factors like permitting, material availability, and structural modifications may also affect the timeline. Our team at Feldman Construction provides a detailed project plan, so you know exactly what to expect.

Costs depend on project size, material selections, and design complexity. Instead of a one-size-fits-all estimate, we offer personalized quotes to align with your budget and vision. Our goal is to maximize value while maintaining exceptional craftsmanship.

Yes. Most remodels require permits, especially those involving structural changes, electrical upgrades, or plumbing work. Feldman Construction takes care of the permitting process, ensuring compliance with local building codes in Palo Alto, Los Altos, San Mateo, Belmont, Redwood City, and surrounding Bay Area cities.

It depends on the extent of the renovations. For smaller projects, you may be able to stay in a different part of your home. However, for whole-home renovations or major kitchen/bath remodels, a temporary relocation may be more convenient. Our team works to minimize disruptions and keep the process smooth.

A design-build approach combines both design and construction under one contract, offering:

Faster timelines with fewer delays
A single point of accountability
Seamless communication from concept to completion
Cost-effective solutions that align with your goals

Certain upgrades can significantly boost your property value, especially in the competitive Bay Area real estate market:

Kitchen Remodels – Modernized countertops, cabinets, and appliances are among the most valuable upgrades.
Bathroom Renovations – High-end showers, vanities, and smart fixtures enhance comfort and resale appeal.
Room Additions & ADUs – Expanding living space with room additions or accessory dwelling units (ADUs) can increase property value.
Energy-Efficient Upgrades – Features like solar panels, smart thermostats, and upgraded insulation lower utility costs and attract buyers.
Curb Appeal Enhancements – New landscaping, exterior paint, and modern entryways create a lasting first impression.
At Feldman Construction, we guide homeowners in choosing the best return-on-investment renovations to enhance both functionality and property value.

In most cases, general home remodeling expenses are not tax-deductible. However, energy-efficient upgrades such as solar panels may qualify for federal tax credits. Additionally, home office renovations and ADA-compliant modifications may be eligible for tax deductions. We recommend consulting a tax professional to understand which deductions or credits may apply to your project.
