Why remodel your Kenmore home?

Kenmore sits on the northern shore of Lake Washington, and most homes here were built between the 1960s and 1990s. That means galvanized pipes, outdated electrical panels and layouts that no longer fit modern family life — challenges that show up early in any serious renovation.

A professional home renovation in Kenmore addresses these issues at the root. In neighborhoods like Inglewood, Kenlake Vista and Downtown Kenmore, homeowners are opening layouts, adding functional square footage and upgrading kitchens and bathrooms with finishes suited to the local climate.

Beyond daily comfort, remodeling supports long-term property value in a market where Northshore School District continues to attract families. Maksymov Brownstone LLC understands the character of Kenmore homes and brings that knowledge to every kitchen, bathroom, addition and full renovation project we take on.

Our home remodeling and renovation services in Kenmore

Maksymov Brownstone LLC offers full-service home remodeling and renovation in Kenmore — from custom kitchen and bathroom upgrades to whole-house renovations, home additions and ADU construction. We manage every stage in-house: design, local permitting, construction and final walkthrough.

Each project is tailored to the home. Older Kenmore builds often need updated plumbing and electrical alongside cosmetic work — we account for that from the start so there are no surprises mid-project.

Why choose us for home remodeling and renovation in Kenmore

  • All-in-one services

    10+ years working on Kenmore homes

    Founder Ihor Maksymov has spent over a decade remodeling homes across the Greater Seattle Area, including older builds typical of Downtown Kenmore and Moorlands. We understand what aging construction looks like from the inside — outdated wiring, galvanized pipes, compromised subfloors — and we plan for it before work begins, not after.

  • High craftsmanship

    Family-owned, locally operated

    We serve Kenmore homeowners directly — no subcontracting surprises, no rotating project managers. Ihor and the core team stay involved from the first site visit through final walkthrough. We handle local permitting in-house and keep you informed at every stage. A significant share of our projects come through repeat work and client referrals, which reflects the relationships we build on every job.

  • Design development

    Full-service licensed contractors

    Maksymov Brownstone LLC is fully licensed, bonded and insured in Washington State. We cover the full scope of residential remodeling: custom kitchens and bathrooms, whole-house renovations, home additions and ADU construction. That includes design, structural work, plumbing, HVAC and custom cabinetry: all coordinated under one contract, one timeline and one point of contact.

Our home remodeling roadmap

Every remodeling and renovation project in Kenmore follows a structured process. We handle design, local permitting and construction under one roof — so you have a single point of contact from first call to final walkthrough.

Schedule consultation
  • 01

    Initial consultation

    We start with a straightforward conversation about your goals, budget and timeline. For Kenmore homes, we also ask about the age of the house and any known issues — plumbing, electrical, structural — so we can flag potential scope additions before work begins rather than mid-project.

  • 02

    Site inspection

    We visit your home to assess the space in detail. In older Kenmore builds this often means checking subfloor condition, evaluating existing plumbing and electrical systems, and identifying any structural factors before finalizing scope. What we find here shapes the proposal.

  • 03

    Detailed proposal

    You receive a clear written proposal with full scope of work, timeline and itemized pricing. No hidden line items. If the site inspection flagged any structural or infrastructure-related work, it is included here — not added later as a change order.

  • 04

    Design refinement & permits

    We prepare construction documents and submit permits to the City of Kenmore on your behalf. At the same time, our team works with you to refine layouts, materials and finishes. For kitchens and bathrooms near Lake Washington we recommend moisture-resistant materials suited to the local climate — a detail that matters long-term.

  • 05

    Construction

    Our crew executes the approved plan with attention to detail and respect for your home. We coordinate subcontractors, manage the schedule and keep you updated throughout. Work is done to Washington State code with all required inspections passed before we move to the next phase.

  • 06

    Final walkthrough

    When construction is complete we walk through every detail with you. We review finishes, test all systems and address anything that needs adjustment. The project closes only when you are fully satisfied and all inspections are signed off.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about home remodeling and renovation services in Kenmore. For a precise estimate tailored to your project — contact our team directly.

What are the permitting requirements for remodeling in Kenmore?

Most structural, plumbing, electrical and mechanical work in Kenmore requires a permit from the City of Kenmore. The scope determines the permit type — smaller cosmetic updates may not require one, while kitchen renovations, bathroom remodels, additions and ADU construction always do. Maksymov Brownstone LLC handles the full permitting process on your behalf, including plan submission and coordination with city inspectors.

How much does home remodeling or renovation cost in Kenmore?

Project costs vary significantly depending on scope, existing conditions and materials. As a general reference: kitchen and bathroom remodels typically range from $40,000 to $120,000 — see our completed kitchen and bathroom projects; whole-house renovations from $200,000 to $500,000+ — see whole-house renovation examples. Older Kenmore homes sometimes require additional work — updated plumbing, electrical or structural repairs — that affects the final number. The most accurate way to understand your project cost is through a site visit and detailed proposal. Contact us for a free estimate.

How long does a home remodeling project in Kenmore take?

Timelines depend on project size. Kitchen and bathroom remodels typically take 6–12 weeks. Whole-house renovations run 4–6 months. Home additions and ADU construction range from 6 to 12 months depending on permitting and scope. Timelines assume permits are approved and materials are ordered in advance — we outline exact milestones in the written project proposal.

How do I choose a home remodeling contractor near me in Kenmore?

Look for a contractor who is licensed and insured in Washington State, has verifiable local experience and handles permitting in-house. Ask to see completed projects similar to yours and check that they provide a written proposal with full scope and pricing before any work begins. A contractor with direct Kenmore experience will understand the local permitting process, the age of the housing stock and the infrastructure considerations that come with it — details that matter for a smooth project.

Do you handle both remodeling and home renovation projects in Kenmore?

Yes. We use both terms because homeowners search for them differently, but our scope covers both. Whether you are remodeling a specific room, renovating the full house or adding new square footage, Maksymov Brownstone LLC manages the entire process — design, permitting, construction and final inspection — under one contract and one timeline.
