Home Remodeling in South Patrick Shores

Absolutely. Mid-century concrete block homes in South Patrick Shores have excellent structural integrity and generous lot sizes. A comprehensive renovation - updated kitchen, modern bathroom, new flooring, and impact windows - typically costs $50,000 to $100,000 in our experience. Whether it pays back depends on the house and the market when you sell, so ask a local agent for recent comparable sales before setting a budget.

Start with impact windows and a modern kitchen. Impact windows provide immediate hurricane protection and insurance savings while transforming the look and feel of the home. Kitchen renovations in these homes often involve opening up walls between the kitchen and living area to create the open-concept layout that today's buyers expect. Bathroom updates and flooring replacement round out a complete transformation.

Homes built before 1978 may contain asbestos in floor tiles, popcorn ceilings, or insulation, and lead-based paint on walls and trim. ELSO Contracting follows EPA guidelines for testing and safe handling of these materials during renovation. We recommend professional testing before beginning any demolition work in pre-1978 homes. Proper abatement is included in our project planning when needed.

Yes, if the remodel moves or replaces plumbing, adds circuits, or changes walls. Because South Patrick Shores is unincorporated, the permit comes from Brevard County rather than the City of Satellite Beach, even with a Satellite Beach mailing address. Cosmetic work such as paint or a new mirror usually needs no permit. ELSO Contracting pulls every required permit itself and schedules the inspections, so the homeowner never has to file anything.
