Renovating Your Home in Lakeland

Popular Renovation Projects in Lakeland
The most requested projects among Lakeland homeowners include kitchen remodeling (the single highest-ROI renovation), bathroom renovations (particularly master bath overhauls with walk-in showers), flooring replacement (LVP and tile are especially popular in Florida), and outdoor living spaces. Home additions and whole-home renovations are in strong demand as homeowners improve their current properties rather than navigating a competitive real estate market.
Choosing a Contractor in Lakeland
When evaluating contractors in Lakeland, verify proper state licensing (Florida requires licensing through the state Construction Industry Licensing Board), adequate insurance and workers’ comp coverage, a strong local portfolio, detailed written estimates, and proper permitting. Check references and online reviews on Google and the Better Business Bureau.
