Why professional contracting and renovation matters
Home renovation is more than cosmetic change. It involves structural considerations, systems integration, code compliance, and thoughtful sequencing to minimize disruption.

Detailed service descriptions and benefits
Kitchen Remodeling
Kitchens are central to daily life and often the highest-return renovation. We work with homeowners to improve flow, incorporate modern appliances, and include durable surfaces suited to busy household tasks. Our services include full gut renovations, cabinetry installation, custom islands, lighting design, and built-in storage solutions. We coordinate plumbing and electrical updates and recommend materials that resist coastal humidity.
Bathroom Remodeling
We design bathrooms that combine functionality with comfort—whether updating plumbing fixtures, installing tile and waterproof systems, or creating accessible layouts. Ricci Custom Renovations specializes in carefully executed wet-area construction: proper framing, moisture management, tile substrate preparation, and high-quality finish installation.
Additions
Home additions allow you to expand without relocating. We handle design coordination, structural work, foundation tie-ins, and exterior trim that matches the existing façade. Our additions focus on seamless transitions in floor level, siding, roofing, and architectural detail so the new space feels original.
Full Home Renovations
For a larger-scale modernization, we plan and execute comprehensive renovations that may include reconfiguring rooms, replacing mechanical systems, installing new insulation, and modernizing finishes. These projects improve livability, energy performance, and long-term property value.
Outdoor Living
We build durable, attractive outdoor spaces tailored to coastal conditions—pressure-treated or composite decking, cedar pergolas, built-in seating, outdoor kitchens, and custom lighting. Our designs emphasize low-maintenance materials and construction practices that withstand salt air and seasonal temperature swings.
Finish Carpentry & Millwork
High-quality carpentry is what sets a remodel apart. Our finish carpentry services include crown molding, custom built-ins, staircases, window and door casings, and kitchen/hallway cabinetry. We ensure joints, miters, and finishes are consistent and true to design intent.
Historic Home Remodeling
Detailed knowledge of period construction allows us to preserve character-defining features—such as original moldings, wide-plank floors, and sash windows—while upgrading systems for efficiency and safety. We consult preservation guidelines and can collaborate with historical commissions when approvals are necessary.
Flooring Installations
We install solid and engineered hardwood, tile, and other flooring products with attention to substrate preparation, moisture mitigation, and transition trim. Proper installation extends the life of flooring and protects subfloor assemblies from moisture or movement.
Window and Door Replacement/Repair
We replace inefficient windows with energy-rated options appropriate for coastal environments, making sure trim and flashing details are correct to prevent water intrusion. We also repair sash, frames, and hardware to retain historic integrity when possible.
