We’ve got one word to describe 2025 - Renew. Okay, we’re pretty partial to that word, but we do actually think 2025 will be all about renewing your life. There’s a reason why we say, “Renew Your Life, Renew Your Home.” To us, they go hand in hand over the last 20 years serving our community. When you renew your home, you renew your life!
In the spirit of renewing your home, we’d like to share the 10 Home Remodeling Trends that we predict for 2025. Let’s dive in!
Featured Remodel #2318 by Project Manager, Chase Babcock
And we’re back! This time we’re focusing on a recent home remodel in Ken Caryl, Colorado that proved to be quite colorful in regards to the challenges we faced after opening up walls. As we’ve said before, you never really know what obstacles may arise and What lurks behind the wall can be either a great surprise or a challenging opportunity. In this case, it was both! We love a good challenge and are always pleased by how proactive our team is in solving surprises. So let’s dive in, shall we?
Fall Into Fun
We absolutely LOVE experiencing fall in Colorado. And, we aren’t alone - folks from all over the world flock to Colorado during the fall to experience all our beautiful state has to offer. From the autumn colors that blanket the majestic rocky mountains to the crisp air and fall smells, you can pack the next few months with fantastic road trips, scenic hikes, exceptional camping, and mountain town adventures.
COLORado - you see what we did there? While there are several other states in the union that boast their very own gorgeous fall spectacular, to us, there is nothing like Colorado. Perhaps it’s our altitude, or maybe it’s the simple fact that in the US there is nothing like the Rocky Mountains. Whatever you think, the Aspen’s that blanket our mountains and display the most beautiful shades of gold cannot be beat.
A few years back we shared a few of our favorite road trips around Colorado. And while these can be done at any time, we like them best during our autumn months. We’re sharing them again!

Invest in the Home You Have
“Should I Stay or Should I Go?” **enter song by English punk rock band, The Clash**
Apologies for the earworm to those who know that song!
When the idea of purchasing a new home comes to mind, investing in your current home is not always the first thought. People typically start thinking about what it would be like living in a new home, what a new neighborhood could feel like, and what features the new home may have that they’ve spent years hoping to have in their current home.
So, what’s best? Do you buy or renovate? We say, renovate!
Investing in your current home, rather than buying a new home, has incredible benefits. First and foremost, research has shown that the act of moving is more stressful than a breakup or divorce. And moving is quite likely the most stressful of all life events. For anyone who has moved, they can attest to this. So, moving to a new home is not for the faint of heart.
20 Years of Love
New Year, New Home, New You!
For most, the new year is a time to change life for the better. To focus on things like a new diet to lose weight or purchase a gym membership that never actually gets used and eventually becomes a pain to get rid of. Make plans to travel to exotic destinations or focus on major upcoming life events like a wedding or graduation. But oftentimes, many skip what is most obvious for a change… one’s own home.
Home Renovations That Even Santa Would Approve Of
HO HO HO & Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! It’s that time of year again when Santa Claus reigns and we overload our bellies with sweet treats. Suffice to say, it’s our favorite time of year. And, if you grew up like most children throughout the world, then you’re familiar with Santa’s naughty and nice list. Depending on your behavior, you either land on the naughty side or nice side of the list. This year we want to make sure, when it comes to your home renovations, that you land on Santa’s nice list! You wouldn’t want a stocking full of coal for Christmas. So, what are some home renovations that Santa would approve of? Well, let’s dive into some HO HO HOME IMPROVEMENT, shall we?
We’re going to break down Santa’s favorite home renovations by focusing on the main areas that affect that jolly guy in the red suit… The fireplace, living / great room, kitchen and bathroom. Let’s start with Santa’s entry into your home.

Fall In Love With Custom Built-ins
Imagine this. It’s a fall day, 45 degrees outside, late afternoon, with a slight mist in the air. Now that the scene is set, let’s continue on. Now, imagine lighting a fall scented candle, pouring yourself a warm cup of coffee (or perhaps a cup of warm apple cider), grabbing a blanket, snagging your favorite romance novel (or Steven King novel, if you’re into that), and snuggling up to the pillows that live in your window reading nook as part of the gorgeous custom built-ins you just had installed in your home. You’re welcome for that incredible experience! Oh, you don’t have custom built-ins? You’re missing out! But don’t fret, we’re here to help inspire you.
When you hear custom built-ins, also known as built-in cabinets or built-in furniture, you might think to yourself, “Do people have these in newer modern homes, or are they strictly for the older homes around Denver proper.” We’re here to tell you, custom built-ins are for ALL homes of ALL ages and ALL styles. So, here’s the story...
2024 Remodeling Trends You’ll Want To Incorporate In Your Home

Gleam your eyes below for a first look at a few of the trends that will shape home design and remodeling in 2024. Let’s dive in, shall we?
Talk Tile To Me!
Earlier this year we crafted the ultimate Beginners Guide To Flooring, which included material choices like ceramic tile, among others. But ceramic tile, as you likely know, is not only for your floors. In fact, you can get super funky, fresh, and stylish with both ceramic and porcelain tile throughout your home. And, your opportunities are endless. Tile is often seen in kitchens, bathrooms - really, any room with running water. This is due to their water resistance and incredible versatility. Most folks remain fairly traditional in their ceramic tile flooring styles, some extravagant, we like a happy medium - but we also love how creative tile has become - particularly in color, pattern, and design!

Remodel #2130 Part II: The Progress Report by Project Manager, Paul Moore
You know we love sharing projects that INSPIRE! So we’re back with an update and completion of last month's blog, Featured In-Progress Remodel #2130.
The scope for this Littleton, Colorado project consists of a complete kitchen remodel, family room upgrade, new powder room, new large pantry, and a dream mudroom with two entrances - one from the garage and the other from the front door. After completing this project, this home is not only a new wonderful living space but now the perfect home for entertaining! So let’s do a tour…
The original plan was to open up the kitchen area as much as possible by removing a wall and allowing the existing 10-foot high ceiling to create a clear view of the family room. However, once we discovered the kitchen had a scissor truss ceiling, our opportunity for this remodel really opened up!
Scissor trusses meant none of the interior kitchen walls were load-bearing and could be removed. We adapted our initial plans, removed the existing kitchen walls and ceiling, and opened up the room.
The result is a true open concept for the entire main level, complete with 24-foot vaulted ceilings - instead of the initially planned 10 ft ones. See for yourself!

Here's our list of the best bathroom trends of 2023. Use them to take yours from overlooked to outstanding!
