Are you tired of all the clutter and junk that's collecting in your basement? Imagine how nice it would be if, instead of an eyesore, you had beautiful finished space that could include a family room, workout room, guest bedroom, or extra bath.

The kitchen, as we all know, is where people congregate at any gathering. The importance of the kitchen, as well as the technologies available to make our lives more convenient, have evolved over the years. The kitchen has changed from a utilitarian space that was often delegated the "leftover" main floor space to a modern-day gathering place and the focal point of your home. Let our award-winning designers and craftsmen help you create the kitchen of your dreams! A makeover is a simpler form of a kitchen remodel, and normally involves saving the cabinets and updating parts of the kitchen.

Castle Building & Remodeling encourages our clients to be Eco-conscious and make smart, long-term investments in their property in many ways.

Minnesota GreenStar-Certified Green Homes and Remodeling has developed a regionally appropriate green building standard that embraces our unique climate concerns, building codes and material, energy, and natural resources. Fundamental to the program is the objective, third-party verification system that assures consumers that the new home or remodeling project performs as promised. The standard will be supported by a mandatory education program for builders and remodelers, as well as general education and promotion to consumers.

Designing a large whole house remodeling project takes significant planning. Creating an addition that works structurally, blends in seamlessly from the exterior and ties in and fits with the interior space proportionally and stylistically can be a challenge. Our team of Remodeling Designers/Interior Designers and Project Managers can help you from space planning to paint colors. Whether you decide to work with an Architect or Design/Build company we encourage you to do your research and understand the differences between the two.

Castle's Small Projects Division was created to help expedite smaller and unique projects that do not require the full design/build service model for which Castle Building & Remodeling has become known.

Please note: our typical timeline is as follows 1) 1-3 Weeks to schedule home visit 2) 1-2 Weeks to complete Budget Analysis 3) 6+ Weeks to complete Design & Planning Process 4) 4+ Weeks to schedule and start project.
