Boulder home remodeling
A remodel that fits how you actually live
Most Boulder homes have great bones and a floor plan from another era — chopped-up rooms, a closed-off kitchen, a primary suite that was never really a suite. A good remodel isn't about ripping everything out; it's about reworking the spaces you live in every day so they finally make sense for your family.
That's the work Prana Construction has been doing for Boulder homeowners since 1995. We remodel across the city — the historic bungalows of Whittier, the streets around University Hill and Chautauqua, and the established neighborhoods of Wonderland Hill, Frasier Meadows, and Martin Acres. Because we know Boulder's housing stock and its permitting process, your remodel moves forward without the surprises that stall other contractors.

A coordinated, phased renovation that brings your entire house up to date in one well-sequenced project.
Older & Historic Home Updates

Our specialty
Remodeling older Boulder homes
Renovating a home built decades ago is a different craft than building new. Surprises live behind the walls, and the right move is often to preserve what's worth keeping while quietly modernizing everything that isn't. After three decades of Boulder remodels, it's exactly the kind of work we're built for:
- Updating knob-and-tube wiring and undersized electrical panels
- Replacing aging galvanized or cast-iron plumbing
- Opening up closed-off original floor plans for modern living
- Adding insulation and energy efficiency without losing character
- Careful work around plaster, lath, and pre-1978 lead and asbestos
- Matching original trim, doors, and millwork on additions and repairs
- Navigating City of Boulder permitting and historic-district review
Questions & answers
Boulder home remodeling FAQs
How much does a home remodel cost in Boulder?
It depends on scope, square footage, and finishes. A single-room refresh is a very different project than a whole-home or multi-room remodel. Rather than quote a vague range, we walk your home, learn your priorities, and give you a clear, itemized written estimate — for free — so you know exactly where your budget stands before any work begins.
Do I need a permit to remodel my house in Boulder?
Most structural, electrical, plumbing, and layout changes require a permit from the City of Boulder (or Boulder County for unincorporated areas). We handle the permitting and inspection process for you as part of the project, so your remodel is done to code and documented correctly for resale.
How long does a whole-home remodel take?
A single room is often a few weeks; a whole-home remodel typically runs a few months depending on scope, material lead times, and permitting. We give you a realistic schedule up front and proactive updates throughout — no radio silence and no guessing when the crew will show up.
Can I stay in my home during the remodel?
Often, yes — especially for room-by-room projects where we can phase the work and seal off active areas. For larger whole-home remodels it can be easier to be out for part of the project. We'll talk through what makes sense for your household before we start.
Do you help with design and material selection?
Absolutely. David and the Prana team provide design guidance and help you choose layouts, finishes, and materials that fit both your taste and your budget. You get the benefit of three decades of Boulder County remodeling experience guiding those decisions.
