Anatomy of a project

What goes into rooms like these

The decisions, the rough work and the details that make a finish hold up. Three project types, opened up.

Large kitchen with marble island and white cabinetry Kitchen
01 · Kitchen

Kitchen remodels

A kitchen lives or dies on layout. Before demo starts we lock island size, aisle widths and appliance placement on paper, then bring plumbing and electrical up to code while the walls are open and easy to reach. Cabinets and counters get ordered early so the job never stalls waiting on a box.

  • Layout locked on paper before demo day
  • Plumbing and electrical updated while walls are open
  • Cabinets, counters and hardware ordered early
  • Inspected at every required stage

02 · Bath

Bath remodels

The part of a bath you never see decides how long it lasts. We treat the waterproofing behind the tile as the real job, size ventilation for the room instead of the minimum, and set blocking and drains before anything pretty goes in. Then the vanity, tub and glass land on surfaces that are actually flat and plumb.

  • Waterproofing detailed behind every wet wall
  • Ventilation sized for the room, not the code minimum
  • Blocking set early for glass, rails and hardware
  • Fixtures picked to fit real daily routines
Gazebo with curtains and string lights Outdoor
03 · Outdoor

Outdoor living

In Arizona the backyard is a second living room for most of the year. Shade comes first, footings get engineered instead of guessed, and gas and electrical runs are permitted and inspected like any room inside. Finishes are chosen to shrug off summer sun and monsoon dust.

  • Covered structures framed for Valley summers
  • Footings and posts engineered for the span
  • Gas and electrical runs permitted and inspected
  • Materials that stand up to sun and dust storms

FAQ

Straight answers about our work

Are these photos from your own jobs?+
Not yet. The gallery shows the finish level we hold every Kelso job to while photography from Mark's own projects is being compiled. We would rather tell you that straight than label stock photos as our work. Ask Mark during your free consultation and he will talk you through real projects.
What kinds of projects do you take on?+
Four things, done well: major remodels, home additions, ADUs and guest homes, and ground-up custom homes. Kitchens, baths, outdoor living and whole-home work all fall inside those four.
How do I find out what a project like this would cost?+
Book a free in-person consultation. Mark walks your space, talks through what you want, flags structural and permit realities, and gives you a straight read on scope and budget. No pressure and no obligation.
Can I check your license before we talk?+
Please do. Kelso Custom Builders, Inc. holds Arizona ROC licenses #318269 and #243160. Both take about a minute to verify on the Arizona Registrar of Contractors search, and we think every contractor you talk to should pass that test.
