Home remodeling in Kirkland.
In Juanita, Rose Hill, and Finn Hill, 1960s–80s homes sit in neighborhoods people refuse to leave — so instead of leaving, owners remodel them whole. Go Far Construction modernizes these houses to Kirkland’s standard in one coordinated project: chef-level kitchens, spa baths, primary suites, and living spaces opened up for the lake light, from a family-owned, licensed Washington general contractor.
A whole-home remodel keeps the finishes, flow, and quality consistent from room to room — one design language, one schedule, one point of contact — instead of the mismatched result that a decade of one-off projects leaves behind. In Kirkland that usually means opening the main floor toward the light, reworking the kitchen and baths together, and giving the primary suite the attention the rest of the remodel sets up.
On budget: a full interior remodel — kitchen, bathrooms, and the main living spaces reworked together — typically lands between roughly $100 and $250 per square foot in this market, so a 2,000-square-foot home usually falls somewhere in the low-to-mid six figures. A down-to-the-studs renovation that moves walls and replaces systems runs $250 to $400+ per square foot. Our whole-home remodel cost guide breaks the ranges down, our remodel ROI guide covers which projects hold their value, and our financing guide walks through how owners fund projects this size. Every project gets an itemized written estimate before demolition.
Every remodel is permitted through the City of Kirkland; we prepare and track the application, carry fees in an itemized written estimate, and meet every inspector on site, as on all our Kirkland projects. It’s the same work we do room by room on our Kirkland kitchen remodeling and Kirkland bathroom remodeling projects — a whole-home remodel simply does it once, coherently. If the plan needs more square footage, our Kirkland home additions page covers building out or up.

Kirkland home remodeling questions
How much does a whole-home remodel cost in Kirkland?
A full interior remodel — kitchen, bathrooms, and main living spaces reworked together — typically runs roughly $100 to $250 per square foot in this market, so a 2,000-square-foot home usually lands in the low-to-mid six figures. A down-to-the-studs renovation that moves walls and replaces systems runs $250 to $400+ per square foot. Every project gets an itemized written estimate before any work begins.
Can we live in the house during a Kirkland remodel?
It depends on scope. Owners often stay through phased work that tackles the house one zone at a time; a full down-to-the-studs renovation usually means moving out for the heaviest months, because the kitchen, baths, and systems are all open at once. We sequence the schedule around your situation and tell you honestly, before work begins, which stretches are livable and which are not.
Do I need permits for a remodel in Kirkland?
Yes — remodels that move walls, add circuits, or relocate plumbing need permits through the City of Kirkland. We prepare and track the application, include fees in your itemized written estimate, and meet every inspector on site.
Can a 1970s Kirkland house really be brought up to today’s standard?
Yes — 1960s–80s homes in Juanita, Rose Hill, and Finn Hill are structurally straightforward to rework, and they respond dramatically when the main floor opens up and the kitchen and baths are rebuilt to a current standard. The bones are rarely the problem; the plan and the finishes are, and a whole-home remodel addresses both at once.
