Whole-Home & New Builds

A whole-home remodel is really several projects running at once — structure, services, envelope and finishes — with one schedule holding them together. The difference between a good one and a painful one is almost never craftsmanship. It is sequencing.

We run the programme: what happens in which order, which trade is on site which week, and which decisions you need to have made before a given date so nothing stalls. You get one point of contact for all of it.

What a whole-home project can involve

  • Full strip-out and structural assessment
  • Levelling floors and correcting settlement in older buildings
  • Removing walls and installing the beams that replace them
  • Rewiring, re-plumbing and HVAC replacement
  • Windows, doors, insulation and roofing
  • New floors throughout, with level transitions between rooms
  • Kitchens and bathrooms as part of the wider programme
  • Ground-up custom homes and multilevel buildings

Old houses tell you things late

On a down-to-studs job you will find something. Settlement, a previous owner's undocumented alteration, wiring that predates the current code, a beam that was never sized properly. Our approach is simple: you hear about it the day we find it, with options and what each one costs. Nothing gets quietly absorbed, and nothing gets quietly billed.

Common questions

Answers before you ask.

Yes. We complete projects of all scope and variety, from a simple bathroom remodel through to brand new multilevel buildings.
Yes. Levelling a first floor is a job we have done as part of full remodels, and it usually has to happen before new flooring goes anywhere.
For a genuine down-to-studs project, almost always. We will be straight with you about which phases are simply not liveable.
In writing, before the work happens. You see what it costs and what it does to the schedule, and you decide.
Yes, and we will flag anything in a set that we think will cause a problem on site before it becomes one.
One person, throughout. You are not handed between a salesperson, an estimator and a project manager who have never spoken to each other.

Jeff and his crew are amazing! He knows all the right people to get the job done no matter what I asked for. They are all very professional, trustworthy and considerate while working in my home. He was able to make several changes along the way and was patient when I was indecisive. High quality service and materials.

Jeff was a pleasure to work with! I'm an interior designer and he beautifully executed my design of a full remodel in Oak View including a new kitchen with revised layout, 3 updated bathrooms, as well as new floors throughout (which also involved leveling the first floor). He was super communicative and easy to work with from start to finish and the property looks fantastic now! I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to remodel or build a new home.

Jeff Thatcher (Thatcher Construction) is Top Notch! He managed our project to build a new ADU, replace a garage, and add a new pantry and laundry room. We couldn't be more pleased with the final outcome! He has a sharp attention to detail, and a keen eye for design (his recommendations were invaluable and really enhanced the design). He was very organized in his planning, creative in resolving issues, and kept the construction moving smoothly.

We didn't know where to start when we needed work done on our new home, thank goodness we found Jeff at Thatcher Construction!! He was very transparent and helped us make all the renovations we wanted for our house. Thank you, Thatcher Construction!
