Remodeling Company in Boulder City, NV
Home renovation in Boulder City, NV means working on homes built between 1931 and 1942, most of them inside a federally designated Historic District with design-review rules you won’t find in Henderson or Las Vegas. We remodel kitchens and bathrooms, add rooms and ADUs, replace roofs and windows, and build hardscape, all under one contract and one accountable team. Ellsworth Contractors has served Boulder City since 2014. Call (888) 445-6077 to schedule a free estimate for your project.
Why Boulder City Homes Are Different
Boulder City is not like the rest of Clark County. The federal government built it as a planned company town for Hoover Dam workers, and that origin still shapes every job we take on here. Most homes are small 1930s and 1940s single-family houses on lots 25 to 50 feet wide, with original clay-tile roofs, plaster walls, detached garages, and floor plans that predate open-concept living by decades. Remodeling usually means working within the existing footprint, not blowing out walls.
The Historic District design-review process covers anything visible from the street. That means exterior changes often require matching 1930s roof tile profiles and stucco textures by hand, and staging materials on the street because there is no side yard to speak of. The Mojave Desert climate at roughly 2,300 feet adds another layer: summer highs routinely pass 100°F with UV that punishes roofing, exterior paint, and concrete. We schedule exterior work to start at dawn and shut down by early afternoon in July and August. Permits in Boulder City can take longer than in Las Vegas because of the historic review layer, so we plan for that from day one.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Boulder City Services
Most Boulder City homeowners call us about two things: large-scale home renovation projects and full-service remodels that span kitchens, bathrooms, and exterior work. Here’s what each involves here.
General Contractor in Boulder City
When a Boulder City remodel touches structure, electrical, plumbing, or the exterior envelope, you need a general contractor who understands the city’s Historic District rules and the realities of working on tight 1930s lots. We coordinate every trade, handle the permit process including historic design review, and keep one line of accountability from demolition to final inspection. That matters when your home has plaster walls, original clay-tile roofing, and a detached garage that may need structural attention. General Contractor in Boulder City covers how we run these projects from start to finish.
Home Remodeling in Boulder City
Home remodeling in Boulder City typically means updating a small 1930s or 1940s house without losing its character. That’s a different job than remodeling a 1990s tract home in Henderson. We work with the existing rooflines, preserve original architectural details where they matter, and rework interiors to function for modern life: larger kitchens, second bathrooms, better storage, and indoor-outdoor connections that make sense in the desert. Home Remodeling in Boulder City walks through what a typical project looks like here.

Home Renovation in Boulder City
Home renovation in Boulder City means improving a 1930s or 1940s house without fighting its bones. Most homes here were built for Hoover Dam workers: small rooms, plaster walls, original clay-tile roofs, and detached garages on narrow lots. The heat and UV at 2,300 feet punish exterior materials faster than in coastal climates, so renovation decisions tend to prioritize materials that hold up under 100°F summers. Ellsworth Contractors handles the full scope, so homeowners don’t have to coordinate a roofer, a cabinet installer, and a tile crew separately. Learn more about how we run Home Renovation projects from the first walkthrough to final inspection.
Home Renovation Contractors
Signs you need it
You need home renovation contractors when the house still has its original 1930s kitchen, a single bathroom for four people, or exterior materials that have baked under Boulder City sun for 80 years.
What it costs in Boulder City
Home renovation in Boulder City runs $14,000 to $45,000 for a kitchen remodel, $9,000 to $28,000 for a bathroom remodel, and $45,000 to $130,000 for a home addition.
How we do it
We start with a walkthrough to document existing conditions against Historic District requirements, then produce a fixed-price scope with named materials, pull permits including design review, and run the job with one accountable crew from demo to cleanup.
Home Renovators
Signs you need it
You need home renovators when your Boulder City house has plaster cracks from settling, outdated wiring, a roof with missing clay tiles, or rooms that don’t work for the way you live now.
What it costs in Boulder City
Smaller-scope renovation work in Boulder City ranges from $5,000 to $12,000 for a small bathroom remodel and $9,000 to $20,000 for a small kitchen remodel.
How we do it
We sequence the project so interior work happens in cooler months and exterior work happens in the early-morning window during summer, then coordinate every trade through one schedule so you’re never waiting on a subcontractor who doesn’t answer calls.

How long does a home renovation take in Boulder City?
A full kitchen or bathroom renovation in Boulder City typically takes 6 to 10 weeks. Projects involving the Historic District review process add 2 to 4 weeks for city approval before work starts. Call (888) 445-6077 to get a realistic timeline for your specific scope.
Will a Boulder City renovation require Historic District approval?
Yes, if any exterior change is visible from the street. Interior-only work generally does not trigger design review.

What Boulder City Customers Say
"Weekly site meeting, every week, with a written summary afterward. I always knew where the money and the schedule stood."
— Dustin Brooks"Allowances in the contract were realistic rather than artificially low to make the bid look good."
— Allison Kowalski"The foundation survey came back dead on. Everything downstream of that being square is the reason the rest of the build went smoothly."
— Robert Fletcher
