Lake Butler House
The porch under the master bath had failed. We repaired the structure and rebuilt the bath as a curbless room open to the lake—so the space works better and feels connected to the view.

Renovations designed around your life
Whole-home remodeling in Orlando and Central Florida
Your home should work for the way you live today. We renovate kitchens, bathrooms, and entire homes, bringing design, permitting, and construction together from the first conversation through the final walkthrough.
Project schedules depend on the scope, existing conditions, permitting, and selections. We discuss a realistic timeline after seeing your home.

Homes we have already renovated.
See how we have transformed homes in Windermere, Reunion, Winter Park, and Orlando. Every project starts with the existing home and what its owners want to change.
Reunion addition
We turned unused height above the existing house into a bedroom, bath, and living area that feels like it was always part of the home.

Winter Park whole-house
We kept the original character of the front. Behind it, the kitchen, living rooms, and primary bath were rebuilt so the whole house feels like one place.

What we do
The kitchen, the bathroom, or the whole house.
We walk the house and listen to how you use it. Then one team draws it, pulls the permit, and builds what you approved.
Whole-home remodeling
The layout, the rooms you use every day, and how the house still works years from now.

Kitchen remodeling
When the existing kitchen layout works, the schedule is shorter. We set it after we see the house.

Bathroom remodeling
Bathrooms designed for comfort and accessibility, including a roll-in when a wheelchair has to use it.

Stay in the house
A home that still works as life changes.
The shower, the doors, and the path through the house can be part of the renovation and still look like the rest of the home. We look at all of that on the visit.

Where should we start?
A kitchen, a house you want to stay in, or a house that has to work with a wheelchair. Tell us which one, and we will come look.
A kitchen or the whole house
Ready to improve your home? Whether you need a better kitchen, an updated bathroom, or a complete renovation, we can help you plan and build it.
A house you can stay in
A shower without a step, a door that is easier to use, and lighting for the walk at night. The house you already have, planned around how you live in it.
A house for a wheelchair
Need a home that is easier to live in? We design accessible bathrooms, wider doorways, and practical improvements that support independence and caregiver access.

“My bathroom remodel is a dream come true. It is exactly what I hoped for, only better. And they were so easy to work with! I'm already discussing a kitchen remodel with them to complete next.”
Jeannine Beehler
“Our house is about 20 years old and was very outdated. Karen came in and offered so many suggestions that have opened up, brightened up and modernized our home. And the process from start to finish only took a few months! We couldn't be happier.”
Nathan
“We had a really good experience with iDesignBuildFlorida. We hired them to renovate some spaces for our home including our son & daughter rooms, and from the first design meeting they actually listened to what we (and the kids) wanted. They took care of everything — design, permits, and the actual build. If you’re in Central Florida and looking for a design-build company that doesn’t turn the process into a headache, I’d recommend giving them a call.”
