Easy Steps Clear Plan
We help make dream homes
Knutson Custom Remodelers project follows three clear phases — planning and scoping, construction and execution, then final support and follow-through. Every phase has defined milestones, so you always know where the project stands and what comes next.
-
Starts with a free in-home consultation — we measure the space, photograph it, and walk through how you actually use it. From there we define the full scope of work, research permit and structural requirements, document your finish selections, and produce a detailed written estimate. By the end of planning you have a fixed contract price, a build schedule, and a clear written scope with no guesswork.
-
Demo, framing, mechanical rough-in, drywall, finish carpentry, cabinetry install, tile, paint, and final fixtures — sequenced by one project manager with a single schedule. We pull all permits, coordinate every inspection, and protect the rest of your home with daily-cleaned dust barriers and floor protection.
-
Project closes with a formal walk-through, punch list resolution, and turnover of warranty documents and product manuals. We come back at the 30-day, six-month, and one-year marks to address any seasonal-movement adjustments. The relationship continues for as long as you own the home.
Seamless Process
From planning to final details, every stage is coordinated for a smooth construction experience.
Built To Last
We focus on durable solutions, quality materials, and workmanship that stands the test of time.

Our Edge
More Care Less Stress
We help make dream homes
Most homeowners compare three or four remodeling firms before choosing one. The structural differences between firms are not always obvious in a sales meeting, but they show up in the schedule, the budget, and the day-to-day experience of the project. Here is how Knutson compares to a typical contractor on the points that matter most.

We hired Mike for an extensive remodel and addition to our house. What could have been a painful process was made enjoyable by Mike and his team. On time, in budget, and a pleasure to have around our house and family. I would recommend Knutson Custom Remodelers to anyone.

Custom kitchen remodels in the Twin Cities typically run from about $40,000 for a refresh-level project inside the existing footprint, $60,000 to $120,000 for a standard remodel with new cabinetry and countertops, and $120,000 to $250,000+ for premium kitchens with structural changes, marble, or paneled appliances. Cost is driven by size, cabinetry style, countertop material, appliance level, and whether walls are coming down. We give a written budget range at the first free consultation.
-
A standard Twin Cities kitchen remodel takes six to ten months from contract to completion — three to ten weeks of design, two to four weeks of permitting, and ten to fourteen weeks of on-site construction. A standard bathroom remodel takes three to seven months. Premium projects with structural changes or period restoration take longer. We confirm the schedule in writing at contract.
-
Custom bathroom projects in the Twin Cities typically run: powder rooms from about $12,000; standard hall baths $25,000 to $50,000; standard primary suites $55,000 to $110,000; and premium primary suites $110,000 to $225,000+ with marble, heated floors, steam shower, and custom paneled storage. These ranges sit above big-box and handyman pricing because we replace old plumbing and electrical in pre-1980 homes and install with our own team — not above premium-luxury benchmark.
-
Yes. The first in-home consultation, measurement, and initial scope conversation are free of charge. The detailed plannign phase that follows — construction drawings, structural engineering, and a fixed-price estimate — is a paid design phase that credits back to the construction contract if you proceed with us as your contractor.
