Taking on a full home renovation is a big decision — and one that can completely transform the way you live. Whether you're upgrading an older house in Denver, modernizing a family home in Arvada, or expanding a space in Aurora, knowing what to expect can help make the experience smooth, exciting, and stress-free.
At DAR LLC, we’re proud to be one of the top remodeling contractors in Colorado, helping homeowners through every step of their design-build remodeling journey.
1. Initial Consultation & Walkthrough
Every great remodel starts with a conversation. We begin by learning about your goals, style, timeline, and budget. We’ll walk through your home, take notes, and answer your questions.
What to expect:
Honest advice from experienced remodelers
A clear overview of the design-build process
Realistic budgeting guidance
Timeline expectations based on your project’s scope
Pro Tip: Bring your ideas, Pinterest boards, and must-haves — we love seeing your vision!
2. Design Phase: Turning Vision Into Reality
This is where the fun begins! Our in-house designers work closely with you to create layouts, choose finishes, and make sure everything fits your lifestyle and long-term goals.
What to expect:
Custom floor plans and 3D renderings
Material and finish selections
Collaboration to match your taste and budget
Key Benefit: With our design-build remodeling approach, the design and construction teams work together from day one — avoiding delays, confusion, or surprises later.
3. Pre-Construction: Permits, Plans & Prep
Before construction begins, we’ll handle the boring-but-important stuff — like securing permits, ordering materials, and finalizing schedules.
What to expect:
Permit applications handled by our team
A clear timeline of what happens next
Communication about any prep you’ll need to do (like moving furniture)
Reminder: In Colorado, permit requirements vary by city, but DAR LLC takes care of all compliance, so you don’t have to stress.
4. Construction: Demo, Build & Transform
Now it gets real. The renovation begins! Whether it's opening walls, reworking plumbing, or installing all-new cabinetry and flooring — we keep the project moving and keep you in the loop.
What to expect:
Regular updates from your project manager
Clean, respectful job sites
Timely progress with minimal disruption
You’ll get to see your home transform day by day — and we’ll always be just a phone call or text away.
5. Final Touches & Walkthrough
Once construction is done, we’ll do a full walkthrough together. Any last adjustments or details will be taken care of before we officially call it complete.
What to expect:
Final inspection and punch list
Cleaning and finishing work
A space that’s ready to enjoy!
Bonus: We’ll take before & after photos (with your permission) to showcase your transformation.
