Whole-Home Remodeling in Spokane & the Inland Northwest
A whole-home remodel is the most effective way to make an existing house feel new without leaving a neighborhood you love. Stonegate Builders is a licensed general contractor serving Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Mead, and the surrounding Inland Northwest, and we approach full-house renovation as a single, coordinated project rather than a stack of disconnected jobs. Whether you are updating a single-level rambler or a two-story home with decades of history, we tailor the plan to your household and how you actually use each room. From reconfiguring cramped floor plans to modernizing systems and finishes, we bring strength, precision, and trust to every phase.

Every home is different, but a comprehensive renovation typically touches most of the house at once. Common scopes we handle include:
- Layout reconfiguration — opening up kitchens, relocating walls, and improving flow between living spaces
- Structural changes — removing load-bearing walls with proper beams, additions, and foundation-related work
- Kitchen and bathroom updates — cabinetry, tile, and durable surfaces such as quartz countertops
- Energy and insulation upgrades — air sealing, added insulation, and efficient windows suited to cold winters
- Finish work — flooring, trim, paint, lighting, and the masonry and stonework that are a genuine Stonegate specialty
Our Remodeling Process
A predictable process keeps a large renovation on track. We generally work through these steps:
- Consultation and assessment of your goals, budget range, and the home’s existing conditions
- Design and planning, including layout options, material selections, and a clear scope of work
- Permitting through the City of Spokane or Spokane County, with inspections scheduled at each required stage
- Construction, sequenced trade by trade with regular communication and site protection
- Final walkthrough to confirm every detail meets our standard before you move back in
Materials & Design Options
We help you choose finishes that balance appearance, budget, and longevity. That includes fiber-cement siding, energy-efficient windows, engineered and hardwood flooring, tile, and solid-surface counters, along with brick, block, and natural or manufactured stone for fireplaces, accent walls, and exterior features. We describe materials in generic, honest terms so your selections reflect real performance rather than a sales pitch.
Modernizing Older Spokane Homes
Much of Spokane’s housing stock has great bones but dated layouts and thin insulation. Whole-home remodeling lets us preserve the character you value — original woodwork, fireplaces, and proportions — while quietly upgrading what sits behind the walls. Improved insulation, air sealing, and efficient windows make a meaningful difference during cold, snowy Inland Northwest winters and warm, dry summers.
Why Choose Stonegate Builders
The biggest advantage of hiring us for a full renovation is a single point of accountability. Instead of coordinating separate contractors yourself, you have one licensed, bonded, and insured team managing design decisions, schedules, subcontractors, and inspections. You also get honest guidance on where to invest and where to save, so the finished home reflects your priorities and holds up over the long term. We build with precision and communicate clearly, so you always know what is happening and what comes next.
Local Climate & Permitting Considerations
Renovations here must respect the region’s realities. We plan for snow load on structural changes, detail assemblies for freeze-thaw durability, and prioritize energy efficiency to keep homes comfortable year-round. We pull the proper permits and work through required Spokane-area inspections so your remodel is safe, compliant, and built to last.

Whole-Home Remodeling FAQs
The first step is a consultation. We discuss your goals, priorities, and budget range, then assess your home's existing conditions. From there we develop a design and a clear scope of work before construction begins. Call us to schedule that initial conversation.
We serve Spokane and the greater Inland Northwest, including Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Mead, Cheney, Deer Park, and nearby communities. Our familiarity with the region's climate and local permitting helps us plan remodels that are durable, efficient, and well suited to how homes are lived in here.
Yes. Masonry and stonework are a genuine specialty for us, and they integrate naturally into whole-home projects. We build and refresh fireplaces, accent walls, and exterior features using brick, block, and natural or manufactured stone, adding lasting texture and strength.
You work with one accountable team. A major benefit of hiring Stonegate Builders is a single point of accountability — we coordinate design, subcontractors, schedules, and inspections so you do not have to juggle multiple contractors. That keeps the project organized and reduces stress.
Yes, and a whole-home remodel is an ideal time to do it. With walls open, we can add insulation, improve air sealing, and install efficient windows. These upgrades make a real difference through cold, snowy Inland Northwest winters and help keep energy bills more manageable.
Absolutely. Many Spokane homes have wonderful bones and details worth preserving. We work to protect original woodwork, fireplaces, and proportions while modernizing layouts, systems, insulation, and finishes behind the scenes. The result keeps its character but performs like a new build.
Yes. Opening up a floor plan often means removing a load-bearing wall, which requires engineered beams and proper support. We evaluate the structure, plan the correct solution, and build it to code. This is a core part of reconfiguring older Spokane layouts into brighter, more connected spaces.
Most whole-home remodels require permits, especially with structural, electrical, plumbing, or mechanical work. As a licensed general contractor, we handle permitting through the City of Spokane or Spokane County and coordinate required inspections so your renovation stays compliant and safe.
Timelines depend on the size of your home and the scope of work — a focused refresh moves faster than a full gut renovation with structural changes. After assessing we sequence trades and provide a realistic schedule, and we communicate clearly if anything shifts.
