Why remodeling your whole home with one team costs you less stress, time and money
Not every kitchen needs to be gutted. Because our own companies design, build and refinish kitchens, we can recommend the option that actually fits your kitchen — not the one we happen to sell.
| Room by room, different contractors | Whole home with The Home Authority, Inc. | |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Each room designed separately; finishes rarely match | One Studio A design for the whole house, so every room feels connected |
| Flooring & trim | Patched transitions where one project ends and the next begins | Continuous flooring, trim and lighting planned across rooms |
| Price | A new bid for every room; costs add up as you go | One fixed price for the full design, even when built in phases |
| Schedule | Years of separate projects and repeated disruption | One schedule with a start and finish date |
| Who you call | A different contractor for every room | One project lead from design to final walkthrough |
| Rework | Later projects can mean tearing out recent work | Walls, plumbing and electrical planned once for the whole house |
Your whole-home options
All at once, or in phases — one plan either way.
Not every kitchen needs to be gutted. Because our own companies design, build and refinish kitchens, we can recommend the option that actually fits your kitchen — not the one we happen to sell.
Option 1 · All at once
Whole home in one project
We build the full design in one continuous project. Fastest path to a finished house, with demo and mess happening once.
- Studio A design for the whole house
- One fixed price, one schedule
- One round of demo and dust
- A short stay elsewhere is sometimes easier
10-12 weeks
Option 2 · In phases
Whole home, built in phases
We design the whole house now, then build it in planned phases. Every phase fits the final plan, so nothing gets torn out and redone later.
- Same whole-house design up front
- Each phase priced before it starts
- Part of the home stays livable
- Spread the investment over time
Phases of 4-6 weeks each

“Calling this project The Generational Homestead warmed my heart immediately. Having The Home Authority help transform it into our home has meant the world to us.”
Brittni C., whole-home remodel client
Living through a whole-home remodel
Do you need to move out? Here's the honest answer.
Many families stay home during a whole-home remodel by working in phases, so one part of the house stays livable while we build the other. If the kitchen and main bathroom are torn out at the same time, a short stay elsewhere is usually easier. We'll plan it with you before anything starts.
A plan before demo day
We map which areas are closed when, so you know exactly what you can use each week.
Phasing to stay home
Build one zone at a time so the rest of the house stays livable.
Dust and access control
Sealed work areas, protected floors and clear paths through the house.
Updates you can check

Whole-home remodel cost
How much does a whole-home remodel cost in Fargo-Moorhead?
The cost of a kitchen remodel in Fargo-Moorhead depends mostly on three things: whether you refinish, refresh or fully remodel, whether walls, plumbing or gas lines move, and the cabinets, countertops and appliances you choose. Instead of publishing ballpark numbers that may not fit your home, we give you an honest budget range on a free 15-minute call — and one fixed price once your design is complete.
| Cost factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| How many rooms | A few connected rooms costs less than a full-house remodel. Phasing lets you choose what comes first. |
| Layout & structural changes | Opening or moving walls, beams and stairs add engineering and labor. |
| Mechanical updates | Plumbing, electrical and HVAC changes, especially in older Fargo-Moorhead homes. |
| Cabinets & built-ins | Custom cabinetry in the kitchen, baths, mudroom and living spaces. |
| Finishes throughout | Flooring, tile, countertops, fixtures and lighting multiplied across every room. |
| All at once vs. phases | Building once is usually more efficient; phases spread the cost over time. |

Whole-home remodeling FAQ
Questions Fargo-Moorhead homeowners ask before remodeling their whole home
Have one we didn't answer? Ask it at your free consult.
How much does a whole-home remodel cost in Fargo-Moorhead?
Whole-home remodel cost in Fargo-Moorhead depends on how many rooms are included, layout and structural changes, mechanical updates and finish choices. The Home Authority, Inc. gives you an honest budget range on a free 15-minute call, then one fixed price for the full design once it is complete, even if the work is built in phases.
What is included in a whole-home remodel?
A whole-home remodel can include any combination of the kitchen, bathrooms, basement, flooring, lighting, layout changes, mudroom and laundry, and custom built-ins. The Home Authority, Inc. designs every room together with Studio A so finishes and flow are consistent throughout the house.
How long does a whole-home remodel take?
Most whole-home remodels take 10-12 weeks of construction, depending on how many rooms are included and whether walls or mechanicals move. Design and selections are finished before construction starts, and you receive one schedule with start and completion dates.
Do I need to move out during a whole-home remodel?
Many families stay home by remodeling in phases, so part of the house stays livable. If the kitchen and main bathroom are remodeled at the same time, a short stay elsewhere is often easier. The Home Authority, Inc. plans this with you before construction begins.
Can I remodel my whole home in phases?
Yes. The Home Authority, Inc. designs the whole house first, then builds it in planned phases. Each phase is priced before it starts and fits the final design, so completed work is never torn out later.
Is it cheaper to remodel the whole house at once?
Remodeling multiple rooms at once is usually more efficient than separate projects because demo, permits, trades and finishes are coordinated once. Phasing costs a little more overall but spreads the investment over time.
Is interior design included?
Yes. Every whole-home remodel with The Home Authority, Inc. includes interior design from Studio A, including a whole-house layout, 3D renderings and a finish palette for every room.
