Frequently Asked Questions About Whole Home Renovations in Myrtle Beach
Whole home renovation costs in the Myrtle Beach area typically range from $100,000 for a basic refresh and more for a comprehensive gut renovation. The final cost depends on the size of your home, the condition of existing systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), the scope of structural changes, and the level of finishes selected. We provide a detailed, itemized estimate after an in-home consultation so there are no surprises once work begins.
A full home renovation typically takes 3–6 months depending on the size of the home and scope of work. Homes requiring structural changes, full kitchen and bathroom remodels, new flooring throughout, and updated mechanical systems will naturally take longer than a cosmetic refresh. Permitting in Horry County can add 3–6 weeks before construction begins, so it’s important to plan ahead and start the process early.
Start by identifying your priorities — which areas of the home are most critical to your daily life and which will have the greatest impact on your comfort and property value. From there, establish a realistic budget with a 10–15% contingency built in for unexpected findings. Consulting with a licensed contractor early in the process allows you to understand what’s feasible within your budget before you fall in love with a plan that doesn’t align with costs.
For most whole home renovations, we recommend relocating temporarily — especially during the demolition and rough-in phases when dust, noise, and the loss of functional kitchens and bathrooms make daily living difficult. Some homeowners stay in one section of the home while work is completed room by room. We’ll discuss the phasing plan with you upfront so you can make the best decision for your family.
Yes. Any renovation involving structural changes, plumbing modifications, electrical upgrades, HVAC work, or additions requires permits through Horry County or the City of Myrtle Beach. Cosmetic updates like painting, flooring, and cabinet replacement typically do not. Re-Builders handles all permit applications, plan submissions, and inspections on your behalf, ensuring your project is fully code-compliant.
