Whole-house projects in Severn usually take one of two forms: modernizing a dated 1970s-90s bi-level or split-level around Meade Village or Reece Road, or customizing a builder-basic new-construction home in the Fort Meade-area D.R. Horton and Ryan Homes communities. Both come with compartmentalized layouts, stock finishes, and worn or generic systems that a coordinated renovation can transform. PRG manages every trade and permit so Severn homeowners get a cohesive, move-in-ready home without juggling separate contractors.

How Much Does Whole-House Remodeling Cost in Severn, MD?

Whole-house renovation cost in Severn varies widely with home size and scope, so ranges are broad. A targeted multi-room update — refreshing the kitchen, a bathroom or two, flooring, paint, and trim throughout — often runs $75,000-$150,000. A comprehensive gut renovation that reconfigures the floor plan, opens up the main level with beam work, and replaces kitchens, baths, systems, and finishes commonly runs $150,000-$300,000+, with larger homes and high-end finishes above that. Key drivers are square footage, how much plumbing and electrical is relocated, structural changes like wall removal, and finish level. Severn's older bi-levels can add cost when we uncover dated wiring or plumbing. We provide a detailed, phased estimate after a full assessment. /* TODO: verify */

Our Whole-House Remodeling Process in Severn

A whole-house renovation in Severn begins with an in-depth consultation and walkthrough so we understand your goals, budget, and timeline. We produce a detailed, phased scope and written estimate, then handle design selections and pull all required Anne Arundel County permits before work starts. We sequence the trades — demo, framing and beam work, rough plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, inspections, insulation and drywall, then kitchens, baths, flooring, trim, and paint — to keep the project moving efficiently with one crew managing the site. We hold regular check-ins so you always know what's next. Timelines typically run two to six months depending on scope. We close with a full walkthrough and punch list before final sign-off.

Deck additions and kitchen counter and cabinet upgrades are the most common first projects. PRG also modernizes dated layouts in older bi-levels and split-levels throughout Severn.

Do You Need a Permit for Whole-House Remodeling in Severn, MD?

Whole-house renovations in Severn almost always require permits from the Anne Arundel County Office of Inspections and Permits, because the scope typically includes plumbing, electrical, and structural work. Cosmetic elements — paint, flooring, trim, cabinet swaps in place — are exempt, but moving plumbing, adding or relocating circuits, and removing load-bearing walls all trigger permits and inspections. Removing walls for an open-concept main level requires an engineered beam detail and structural inspection. PRG prepares the applications, pulls all permits, and coordinates rough-in, structural, and final inspections across every trade.

Whole-House Remodeling FAQ for Severn, MD

Can you renovate the whole main level of my Severn bi-level into an open concept?
Yes. Opening up the compartmentalized main level is the centerpiece of many Severn bi-level and split-level renovations. We remove the walls dividing the kitchen, dining, and living areas — installing engineered beams where they're load-bearing and pulling the Anne Arundel County structural permit — then tie the new open space together with consistent flooring, lighting, and trim throughout.
We bought new construction near Fort Meade — is a whole-house renovation worth it?
It can be. Builders in the D.R. Horton and Ryan Homes communities deliver functional but basic homes — stock kitchens and baths, plain trim, no outdoor living space. A coordinated renovation that upgrades those elements together gives you a custom home and a stronger resale position, which matters in Severn's relocation-driven market. We can phase the work to match your budget and timeline.
How do you keep a whole-house renovation in Severn organized?
