Home Remodeling in Denver
Faros handles home remodeling in Denver with something most remodeling companies cannot offer: we are builders. Moving a load bearing wall, adding an engineered beam, or opening a floor plan is ordinary work for our team rather than a reason to talk you out of the design you wanted. Ricardo has more than 30 years of Front Range construction experience and oversees every remodel personally.
Denver home remodeling also means older houses, and older houses hide things. Outdated wiring, cast iron waste lines, undersized framing, materials that require testing before anyone disturbs them. We investigate before we quote instead of discovering it after demolition and handing you a change order.
Builders Who Remodel, Not Finishers Who Try
Denver Remodeling Contractors With Real Structural Capability
There is a meaningful difference between a company that installs cabinets and a company that can safely remove the wall those cabinets hang on. Plenty of home remodeling work in Denver gets quietly limited by what the contractor is comfortable doing structurally. Walls that could open stay closed, ceilings that could be vaulted stay flat, and homeowners scale down their plans without ever being told that is what happened. Because we build homes from the ground up, structural modification is regular work here: engineered beams, new headers, post and footing changes, foundation modification for additions, and floor system alterations. If your remodel needs the wall gone, the wall can go.
Every project gets permitted. That sounds obvious and it is not standard practice in this industry. A great deal of Denver home remodeling happens without permits, and homeowners usually find out what that means when they try to sell and an inspection turns up unpermitted work. It can affect financing, insurance claims, and resale value. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and hand you documentation showing the work was approved.
Older homes get the care they require. Denver has a large stock of houses built well before current material standards, and disturbing certain materials carries regulatory requirements as well as health considerations. We follow proper testing and handling protocols rather than treating demolition day as a race.
We Find the Surprises Before You Pay for Them
The biggest source of remodeling disputes is the mid project change order for a condition nobody knew about. Our answer is to find it sooner. We price with a contingency we explain rather than a number chosen to win the bid. That makes our estimates less flattering than some competitors and much closer to the final invoice. A low bid on an old house is a prediction, and the prediction is rarely generous to the homeowner.
We also plan around the fact that you still live there. Sequencing preserves function: a bathroom kept operable while another is rebuilt, a temporary kitchen so your family is not eating takeout for two months, bedrooms staged to stay usable, and utilities phased so you are never without water or power longer than necessary. Dust containment and daily cleanup are the baseline, not the whole plan. Because Faros self performs exterior and site work, a home renovation in Denver can extend outside without a second company. Interior work, new windows and siding, patios, drainage, and outdoor living all run on one schedule with one team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about kitchen remodeling? Our FAQ section helps homeowners better understand the renovation process, timelines, budgeting considerations, and what to expect throughout construction.
We build houses, so structural remodeling is normal work rather than something we avoid. We permit and inspect everything, which protects resale and insurance. We investigate before pricing so surprises land in the estimate. And we sequence work so you can keep living in your home.
In Colorado, whether you need a permit depends on your specific city or county, but any work changing your home’s structure, plumbing, or electrical systems requires one.
Handling older Denver homes—whether you are buying, selling, or renovating—requires balancing architectural preservation with the realities of Colorado’s unique environmental conditions and local zoning codes. Because Denver features a high volume of late-1800s and early-1900s Victorians, Foursquares, Bungalows, and Tudors, standard modern approaches rarely apply.
Some kitchen remodeling projects require permits, especially when electrical, plumbing, structural, or layout changes are involved. Our team helps determine permit requirements and manages the process when needed.
