Whole Home Remodeling in Seattle
Transform Your Space. Improve Your Health. Build for the Future.
A whole house remodel redefines how your home works, feels, and supports your life. It’s an opportunity to align every square foot with how you live, bringing in more light, improving the flow, upgrading materials, and creating healthier air throughout. At Pathway Design + Construction, we take this transformation seriously, crafting spaces that elevate your day-to-day while honoring sustainability, wellness, and design integrity.
As one of the leading whole house remodel contractors in the Seattle area, we take a thoughtful, health-conscious approach to every project. With a focus on long-term durability, environmental responsibility, and design integrity, our team turns dated homes into livable works of art.
Why Choose a Whole House Remodel?
Homes carry the history of how we’ve lived, but they don’t always keep up with how we live now. A whole home remodel gives you the chance to reset the structure, flow, and function of your space all at once. From eliminating inefficiencies to upgrading outdated systems and improving indoor air quality, a total home renovation aligns everything. Many homeowners choose this path when:
- They’ve recently purchased an older home and want to update everything at once
- They are expanding their family, need multigenerational living solutions, or want to age in place
- They want to dramatically improve energy efficiency, functionality, and design
- They care about creating a healthier indoor environment
Our team of expert home remodel contractors works closely with you to design a space that’s beautiful, functional, and grounded in wellness.

Whole Home Remodeling Styles
Seattle’s architectural landscape is rich with variety! Some homes call for preserving historic trim and millwork; others ask for bold, clean lines and open space. We take our cues from the home’s bones, the neighborhood's character, and most importantly, your vision.
Love the textures and tones of the Pacific Northwest? We lean into natural materials that reflect the environment outside your window. Prefer a more minimalist space that feels calm and open? We’ll refine the layout and palette to match.
Tech-forward features, sustainable systems, and flexible layouts are seamlessly woven into your remodel, making it beautiful and built to support how you live for years to come.

Whole Home Remodel FAQs
1. How long does a whole house remodel take?
A typical whole house remodel can take anywhere from 6 to 12 months, depending on the size, complexity, and permitting process. The timeline can also be influenced by design revisions, product lead times, and how much structural work is involved.
At Pathway, we build in time for thoughtful decision-making and clear communication, so the process feels steady, not rushed. You'll always know where things stand and what’s coming next.
2. Do I have to move out during construction?
Not always. Many of our clients live in their homes during construction. We take special care to manage dust, noise, and workflow to protect your daily life. That includes setting up physical barriers, using air scrubbers, and maintaining clean job sites throughout the process. If a portion of the home becomes temporarily unusable, we’ll help you plan around it so disruptions are minimal.
3. How much does a total home renovation cost?
Costs can vary significantly depending on the size of the home, the complexity of the design, and the level of customization involved. At Pathway, whole home remodels typically fall into these ranges:
- Low Range: $600,000 – $650,000
- Mid-Range: $650,000 – $750,000
- High-End: $750,000 – $900,000+
We provide a detailed estimate early in the process, so you can make confident decisions that align with your goals and budget.
4. What if I care about sustainability and indoor air quality?
That’s our specialty! We’re one of the few Seattle remodeling companies with deep expertise in indoor air quality. Our green remodel practices make sure your renovation is as healthy as it is beautiful.
We carefully vet every product and material we use, prioritize ventilation and low-toxicity finishes, and design with long-term energy performance in mind.
