Home Remodeling in University City
Home remodeling brings real improvements to how you live. Whether you're adding usable space, modernizing a dated interior, or making your home layout more practical, a good contractor helps you get the most out of your home without starting from scratch.
We work with homeowners who are ready to rethink their spaces, and we listen closely and help shape each project to match how you want to live, not just what the house currently allows. At 5stone, we offer full design and build services under one roof, so your project stays organized from start to finish.

How We Can Help
Open Up the Kitchen
A kitchen remodel should reflect how you actually use the space. For some that means a more open layout with better flow. Others need custom cabinetry, more countertop space, or updated appliances. Our kitchen remodeling work handles everything from design to final build, so there's no disconnect between your ideas and the result.
Build an Addition
When you need more space, an addition often makes more sense than a move. But it has to feel like it belongs. We design home additions that match your existing structure in both form and function, from second-story expansions to kitchen extensions and new primary suites, carefully planning how the new space connects to the rest of the home.
Rework the Bathroom
Older bathrooms often waste space and lack storage. Bathroom remodeling rethinks how the room works, whether that's replacing a tub with a walk-in shower, adding dual sinks to avoid morning traffic, or upgrading finishes. Even small changes, like a better floorplan or improved ventilation, can make a bathroom feel brand new.
Rethink the Whole Floorplan
Sometimes homes need more than piecemeal updates. A full renovation helps unify the style and layout across the entire house. We work on older homes that have been changed over time and no longer flow well from room to room. Whole-home remodeling maps out a new plan that reflects your priorities, whether that's better sight lines, more open space, or a return to original architectural details.
Finish the Basement
A basement can become one of the most useful parts of the home if it's done right. Many of the homes in University City have older basements with low ceilings and uneven floors. Basement finishing takes that into account and designs solutions that improve comfort without overbuilding, addressing moisture, insulation, soundproofing, and layout.
Restore an Older Home
Many University City homes have been changed over time, with layouts that no longer flow well from room to room. Our work on historic and older homes brings them back together without stripping out the details worth keeping. We plan around uneven floors, original trim, and the quirks that come with age rather than treating them as problems to remove.
Our Work in University City
Many of the homes in University City are older, with basements that have low ceilings and uneven floors, and layouts that have been changed over time. We know what to look for and how to plan around it. We're also the same people who design the layout, order the materials, and show up to install them, which keeps the quality consistent and the communication clear from start to finish. Below is a look at what that's produced in and around University City.
