Frequently Asked Questions
1. What areas do you serve?
Prestige Home Remodeling serves homeowners throughout Baltimore County, Harford County, Howard County, Carroll County, and Anne Arundel County in Maryland. We’re based locally and specialize in projects tailored to the needs of families and property types in these communities.
2. What types of remodeling projects do you specialize in?
We specialize in home additions, kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, and basement remodeling. We also offer full design-build services, custom layouts, and finish planning to take your project from concept to completion.
3. Do you offer design services?
Yes. Prestige Home Remodeling provides in-house custom design services for all projects. Whether you’re reimagining a kitchen layout or planning a full home addition, our designers help you make confident, functional, and beautiful choices.
4. Do you offer free consultations?
Yes. We offer free in-home consultations where we listen to your ideas, assess your space, and provide a clear path forward with no obligation.
5. Do you provide project estimates?
Absolutely. After your consultation, we provide a detailed, transparent estimate—including materials, labor, design, permitting, and inspection fees.
Bonus: we offer materials at cost, so you never pay inflated contractor markups.
6. Do you upcharge on materials?
No. This is one of the things that sets us apart. We do not add any markup to materials. You get direct access to our contractor pricing from suppliers—meaning more of your budget goes into the project itself.
7. Can I choose my own materials or finishes?
Yes. You can bring your own selections or work with our team to choose cabinetry, tile, flooring, fixtures, and more from trusted vendors. Either way, we’ll ensure they’re integrated into the project at actual cost—with no markup.
8. Do I need permits for my remodel?
In most cases, yes. Projects involving plumbing, electrical, structural changes, or added square footage will require permits. But don’t worry—Prestige handles all permitting for you, including drawings, submissions, revisions, and inspection scheduling.
9. How long does a typical remodel take?
Project timelines vary by scope:
Kitchens: 4–8 weeks
Bathrooms: 3–6 weeks
Basements: 6–10 weeks
Additions: 3–6 months
We’ll provide a custom timeline during your consultation and keep you updated throughout the process.
10. Can I live in my home during the remodel?
Usually, yes. We take care to minimize disruption, seal off construction zones, and maintain a clean site. For larger projects or full additions, temporary relocation may be more comfortable.
11. Do you offer financing options?
Yes. We work with local and national lending partners to offer financing solutions that make it easier to budget for your remodel. We’ll guide you through the application process if needed.

14. Can you work with my architect or designer?
Yes. If you already have plans from an architect or interior designer, we’re happy to collaborate and bring their vision to life while coordinating all permits and build execution.
16. How do you keep projects on budget?
We use detailed upfront estimates, clear scope definitions, and real-time cost tracking. Because we don’t mark up materials, you avoid inflated pricing and can better control your budget.
