Renovated open-plan kitchen with white cabinetry, wood island and pendant lighting

Most of the homes we remodel were not built for the way their owners live now. Our job is to work out what the structure will actually allow, then design around it.

What remodeling with us involves

Remodeling an existing house is a different discipline from building a new one. Plumbing, electrical, framing and finishes all have to be retrofitted into something that is already standing, and the older the house, the more it tends to hide. We plan for that rather than discovering it halfway through.

Over fifteen years and more than a hundred homes, we have learned where the expensive surprises usually sit. That experience goes into the budget at the start, which is why our proposals tend to survive contact with the demolition phase.

Because our designers and our build team work together, a structural constraint becomes a design decision rather than a change order. We can tell you on day one whether that wall can come down, what it costs if it can, and what we would do instead if it cannot.

We handle whole-home renovations, single-room work, kitchens, bathrooms, basement finishing and garage conversions throughout Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Garner and the wider Triangle.

Honest structural assessment

We tell you early what the house will and will not allow, so the budget reflects the building rather than the best case.

Existing systems retrofitted

Plumbing, electrical and framing integrated into what is already there, rather than demolishing more than the project needs.

Material matching and sourcing

Long-standing supplier and craftsman relationships let us match existing finishes and source replacements quickly.

One team start to finish

Design, budgeting and construction stay under one roof, so nobody is coordinating three companies on your behalf.

The Hykal Process

Four stages, from the first call to the day the work begins, with the scope and the budget agreed before anything is signed.

STEP 01

Free Consultation Call

A short call to hear what you are planning, what it needs to do for your family, and whether we are the right fit.

STEP 02

In-Home Meeting

We walk the house with you, take measurements, and talk honestly about what the space will allow and what it will cost.

STEP 03

Proposal & Scope

We present a full project proposal, then adjust the scope together until the plan and the budget genuinely line up.

STEP 04

Your Vision Begins

Once the agreement is signed, our design and construction teams take over and keep you updated through to the final walkthrough.

Built on trust

Design included with your build, a one-year labor warranty, and a documented handover, so what you were promised is what you can point to afterwards.

Question? Answered

The questions Triangle homeowners ask us most, answered plainly.

What areas do you serve?

We are based on Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh and work throughout the Triangle, including Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Garner and Wake Forest. We also take projects further out in North Carolina where the scope justifies the travel, including work completed in Louisburg, Rocky Mount and New Bern.

Do you charge separately for design?

No. Professional design is included with your build rather than invoiced as a standalone service. Our designers and our construction team work together from the start, which is what keeps a drawing from becoming something that cannot actually be built for the budget you agreed to.

What does the Hykal process look like?

It starts with a free consultation call, followed by an in-home meeting where we measure and talk through the realities of your space. We then present a full project proposal and adjust the scope with you until the plan and the budget agree. Once you sign, construction begins and we manage it through to the final walkthrough.

Do you handle new construction and additions, or only remodels?

Both. Alongside whole-home and single-room remodels we build custom new construction homes and additions, handling pre-construction planning, budgeting, permits, inspections and structural engineering coordination as part of the same integrated process.

What happens after the project is finished?

You receive a one-year labor warranty and a project binder documenting every selection, purchase and manufacturer warranty in your home. It means that two years from now, when you need the model number of a faucet or the exact paint colour, you are not guessing.

Can you work with me if I only need design help?

Yes. We offer design on its own, covering space planning, 3D renderings, material and finish selections, lighting and appliance placement, and a detailed shopping list. Design-only consultations can be run virtually, so you do not have to be in North Carolina to work with us.
