Home Remodeling in Des Peres
Most home remodeling projects begin with a sense that the house should be working better. The layout feels dated, the kitchen no longer fits the way your family cooks or gathers, or there's a growing need for dedicated space to focus, relax, or host.
5stone approaches these projects with clear priorities and careful execution. Our design-build team manages every detail, from layout changes to finish selections to the build itself, so you can plan budget and schedule confidently, even in older or customized homes.

How We Can Help
Open Up the Kitchen
We often see Des Peres kitchens that look updated on the surface but don't handle the demands of a busy household. Our kitchen remodeling work rethinks work zones, increases storage without crowding, and introduces lighting that makes the space feel lighter and more usable.
Add Bedrooms
Growing families often outpace the number of bedrooms in older homes. We design and build upper-level home additions or dormer expansions that add the space you need while matching the home's exterior lines and finishes, keeping proportions right rather than overwhelming the original structure.
Rework the Bathroom
Older homes here often have one full bath doing too much work, or a primary bath updated once and never quite right since. Bathroom remodeling lets us add function without always expanding the footprint, handling tile, fixtures, ventilation, and waterproofing.
Rethink the Whole Floorplan
When the original layout no longer supports your daily routine, it may be time to reconsider how the home is organized. Whole-home remodeling lets us rework floorplans to improve transitions, simplify traffic flow, and create better connections between rooms, without losing structure or charm.
Finish the Basement
Unfinished or outdated basements often sit unused, even when space is at a premium. Basement finishing converts these areas into high-function zones: a home office, a media room, a guest suite, or a mix of all three. In many Des Peres homes, the lower level offers a generous footprint that just needs the right systems and finishes.
Laundry & Utility Spaces
A laundry room that works well takes pressure off the rest of the house. We often rework these spaces alongside kitchen projects, adding storage, better lighting, and surfaces that make the job easier, so the room earns its place rather than being wherever the machines happened to fit.
Our Work in Des Peres
The homes in Des Peres range from midcentury ranches to newer construction on wide lots. Some have been updated frequently, while others are close to original. We've remodeled homes in neighborhoods near Harwood Road, Bopp Road, and Manchester, where zoning rules, elevation changes, and setbacks influence what's possible. We understand how to adapt plans to suit the lot, and how to build within the rhythm of the neighborhood without compromising privacy or quality.
We're not just builders. We're the same people who design the layout, create the timeline, order the materials, and show up to install them. That keeps the quality consistent and the communication clear from start to finish. Below is a look at what that's produced in and around Des Peres.
We love what we do & we do what we say.

High-end remodels don't simply make a home look better. They improve how it feels to live in it every day. If you're making a meaningful investment in your Webster Groves home, that should be the standard.
We've worked throughout Webster Groves and know the housing stock well. If you've been considering a project, we'd love to show you what this experience looks like in action.
