Fast, Reliable Home Remodeling Across Las Vegas
Home remodeling in Las Vegas comes with a set of challenges you won’t find in other markets. Slab-on-grade foundations hide galvanized supply lines and aluminum branch wiring that only surface once walls come down. Caliche sits just below grade, so even modest relocations require jackhammering. The discovery phase, not the finish work, is where budgets actually move. That’s why we run every Las Vegas remodel inspection-first, with written allowances already in the contract. Call (888) 445-6077 to schedule your free estimate, and we’ll walk the property with you before anyone swings a hammer.
Why Ellsworth Contractors Is Las Vegas’s Preferred Home Remodeling Company
We have spent years opening up homes across the central valley, from mid-century ranches in 89101 to stucco-and-tile subdivisions in 89139 and 89140. Homeowners here tell us the same thing: they want one contractor who can handle the full scope without juggling three subs and a material supplier. That is exactly how we operate. Reed Calloway, our owner, built Ellsworth Contractors around a single point of accountability, and he holds every project to that standard. From roofline to paver, one contractor, every system.
Our Home Remodeling team carries authorized relationships with 50+ named manufacturers across cabinetry, countertops, plumbing, roofing, windows, doors, fencing, hardscaping, and prefab structures. That means when you choose KraftMaid cabinetry or a Cambria countertop, you get the real product, not a substitute. Las Vegas homeowners deserve that level of material certainty.
We know the neighborhoods. We know which ranch tracts run aluminum branch wiring, which subdivisions sit on the worst caliche, and which east-side lots flood when a monsoon gully-washer hits. That local knowledge is what keeps your quote honest from day one.
Styles & brands we work with







Whole House Remodel in Las Vegas
A Whole House Remodel in Las Vegas means taking an older valley home down to the studs in stages, or all at once, and rebuilding it to current code. The price depends heavily on what we find behind the drywall. A typical full-home renovation runs $45,000 – $130,000 for a home addition and $14,000 – $45,000 for a kitchen remodel within the larger project. But the budget moves at demolition, not at cabinet selection.
Here is what we actually do in a Las Vegas whole house remodel. We start with an inspection of the framing, the electrical panel, the supply lines, and the slab. We write allowances into the contract for wiring upgrades, plumbing replacements, and caliche excavation. When we find something, it becomes a written change order with a price you approve before we touch it. No verbal pricing. No surprises at the end.
Older Central Valley Homes
In ZIPs like 89101 and 89102, many homes were built between 1950 and 1975. Those houses almost always have original galvanized plumbing and aluminum branch wiring hidden inside the walls. We open them up, document what we find, and bring the mechanical systems up to code before any finish work begins. Skipping this step is how a $45,000 remodel turns into a $90,000 one. We keep it sequential and documented.
Slab-On-Grade Foundation Work
Las Vegas homes sit on concrete slabs poured over desert soil. When your remodel requires moving a kitchen island, adding a bathroom, or relocating a drain line, we have to cut into that slab. Caliche, a rock-hard cemented soil layer, often sits just below grade. That means jackhammering, not a quick saw cut. We price this work as a line item with an allowance so the foundation portion of your contract reflects reality.
Luxury Home Remodeling in Las Vegas
Luxury Home Remodeling in Las Vegas is a different discipline than standard renovation. It involves higher-end materials, custom layouts, and often the same hidden conditions found in older central-valley homes. A luxury kitchen remodel typically falls between $14,000 and $45,000, while a full luxury bathroom remodel runs $9,000 – $28,000. The finish level is elevated, but the mechanical realities under the slab do not change.
We specify brands like Silestone and Cambria for countertops, and Wellborn or KraftMaid for cabinetry. These are not commodity products pulled from a distributor’s clearance rack. They are ordered per project, fabricated to specification, and installed by crews who work with these materials regularly. Built to last, specified to fit.
High-End Kitchens and Baths
A luxury kitchen in a Las Vegas custom home often includes a large island, a built-in appliance package, and stone surfaces throughout. We coordinate cabinet lead times, countertop templating, and plumbing fixture rough-ins so the project does not stall waiting on a single material.
Prefab and ADU Structures
Luxury clients increasingly want a separate ADU or prefab structure on the property. We partner with brands including Abodu, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, and Plant Prefab. That expands what your Las Vegas property can do without the coordination gaps of hiring a separate modular contractor.
Trusted Brands We Service in Las Vegas
We install and service the brands Las Vegas homeowners actually ask for. In cabinetry, we work with KraftMaid and Wellborn. In countertops, we carry Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone. That means when you spec a Cambria quartz island, you get exactly that slab, fabricated and installed by our team. We do not substitute. We do not down-sell. We maintain direct relationships with these manufacturers so lead times and warranty claims stay clean, even during summer construction season when demand spikes across the valley. For Las Vegas customers, that shortens procurement and keeps the remodel schedule moving.

AfterCommon Home Remodeling Problems We See in Las Vegas Homes
- Aluminum branch wiring. Homes built in the 1960s and early 1970s across the central valley often used aluminum wiring for branch circuits. It surfaces only after drywall comes down, and it needs to be upgraded or properly terminated to meet current electrical code. We identify it during the inspection phase, not after the walls are closed.
- Galvanized supply lines. Original galvanized plumbing corrodes from the inside. By the time a Las Vegas homeowner notices low water pressure or rust-colored water, the lines are already failing. Opening a wall for a remodel is often the first time anyone sees their true condition. We replace them with PEX or copper while the wall is open.
- Caliche and blow sand. Las Vegas soil is not uniform. Caliche can stop a footing excavation dead. Blow sand can shift under a slab. Any remodel that touches the foundation, moves a drain, or adds a room needs soil-specific engineering. We write that into the contract because we know it is coming.
- Monsoon flooding on open work. From July through September, the valley gets sudden, intense storms. An open trench or fresh slab pour can flood in minutes. We schedule excavation and concrete work around monsoon forecasts and use barriers and pumps on active sites. Your schedule needs weather allowances, or the punch list never ends.
Pricing for Home Remodeling in Las Vegas, NV
Here are the line-item ranges we see most often in the Las Vegas market. These are real numbers from recent projects, not national averages.
| Project | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Home Addition | $45,000 – $130,000 |
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
| Garage Conversion | $30,000 – $80,000 |
What moves a project within these ranges comes down to three things: the condition of the wiring and plumbing we find behind the walls, the amount of slab cutting required, and the material level you choose. A KraftMaid kitchen with Silestone counters costs more than builder-grade, and it should. The estimate is free. Call (888) 445-6077, and we will give you a written line-item quote before you commit to anything.

FAQs About Home Remodeling in Las Vegas
Because Las Vegas homes hide problems behind drywall that no pre-remodel inspection can fully see. Aluminum branch wiring, galvanized supply lines, and compromised framing do not show up on a walkthrough. We write allowances into every quote so a discovered condition becomes a written change order with a price you approve before work continues. Call (888) 445-6077 and we will show you how our contract structure works.
Opening a wall in Las Vegas triggers code compliance on any exposed system: electrical, plumbing, structural framing, and sometimes insulation and fire blocking. The City of Las Vegas and Clark County inspect rough-in work before drywall goes back on. We handle every permit, every inspection sign-off, and every correction. That is our job, not yours.
Yes. Caliche is a cemented soil layer found across much of the valley. When your remodel moves a drain line, adds a footing, or cuts into the slab, we often hit caliche. Jackhammering and spoil removal become necessary. We include a soil allowance in our foundation line items so you are not surprised mid-project. For an exact figure on your property, call (888) 445-6077.
We schedule concrete pours at dawn when summer highs push past 110°F. We shade fresh pours, use evaporation retarders, and adjust curing schedules. During monsoon season, we trench with barriers and have pumps staged on east-side job sites where gully-washers hit hardest. A Las Vegas remodel schedule needs weather allowances built in, and ours has them.
Yes, and we do it regularly. Older central-valley homes often have irregular walls and floors, so we shim and scribe the cabinetry to fit instead of forcing it. KraftMaid cabinets go in level and plumb. Cambria and Silestone counters get templated after the cabinets are set, so the overhangs and seams are correct. The result is a new kitchen that fits an older home properly. Call (888) 445-6077 to schedule your free estimate.
