Our Step-by-Step 3D Rendering Process

1. Initial Consultation & Assessment

Our process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your vision, goals, and preferences. We'll discuss your desired layout, style, and any specific features you want to include in your 3D remodeling image or video. This allows us to customize the design to your unique needs.

2. Design & Conceptualization

After understanding your vision, we begin creating 2D plans that outline the scope and structure of the remodel. These plans are an essential foundation, helping us explore potential design elements and allowing for further input from you before moving to the next step.

3. 3D Rendering Creation

Once the 2D plans are approved, we use advanced software to convert them into lifelike 3D models. This stage brings your project to life, showing you how your remodeled space will look and feel. You’ll be able to see every aspect of the design, from the placement of furniture and fixtures to the texture of materials and finishes.

4. Review & Revisions

We offer you the opportunity to review the 3D rendering in detail, giving you the flexibility to make adjustments. Whether you want to change the color of the walls, reposition cabinets, or explore different flooring options, we’re here to make those revisions. We offer up to 5 small revisions and 2 large revisions for free if requested within 30 days of delivering the initial results.

5. Final Approval

Once all revisions have been made and you’re happy with the design, we’ll seek your final approval. At this stage, the 3D rendering becomes the blueprint for the construction team, ensuring that your remodel is executed exactly as planned.

We also offer this service as a standalone option for homeowners who are planning future remodels but aren't quite ready to start construction. It's a great way to visualize potential ideas and make informed decisions without committing to a full project right away.

Should You Renovate or Move?

San Antonio homeowners often face this decision: invest in renovating their current home or purchase a new one. Here's how to think through this choice:

Consider Renovating If:

  • You love your location — Your neighborhood, schools, commute, and community connections are hard to replicate
  • Your home has good bones — Solid foundation, adequate square footage, and a layout that can be improved
  • Moving costs are prohibitive — Real estate commissions, closing costs, and moving expenses add up quickly
  • You want customization — Building exactly what you want is easier through renovation than finding a perfect existing home
  • You have equity to leverage — Home equity can fund renovations at lower interest rates than new mortgages

Consider Moving If:

  • Your home is fundamentally too small — Adding square footage through additions is expensive and not always possible
  • Location no longer works — Job changes, school needs, or lifestyle shifts may require a new area
  • Structural issues are severe — Foundation problems or outdated systems may cost more to fix than the home is worth
  • The market favors selling — Strong seller's markets can make moving financially attractive

The Numbers

In San Antonio, selling a home and purchasing another typically costs 8-12% of the home's value in transaction fees alone, before considering the price difference between homes. A comprehensive renovation that transforms your existing home often delivers more value per dollar while letting you stay in a location you love.

Why Choose Total Home Remodeling Services?

Maximize Property Value

By remodeling all areas simultaneously, we can help you increase your property value, giving you a greater return on your investment. Upgrading your property value can bring benefits, whether you make this your forever home or choose to sell later.

Create Long-Lasting Appeal

During a renovation, you can choose timeless design choices that upgrade your home's style. With everything being remodeled at the same time, designs can easily flow from one room to the next, creating a cohesive theme and a harmonious space.

Save on Costs and Time

Doing everything at once can reduce your costs in the long run. You may get better deals on materials by purchasing in bulk. Working with our contractors for a longer period may also reduce overall costs. While the project may seem longer upfront, a complete renovation is often faster overall, creating less disruption to your everyday life.

What to Expect: Whole Home Remodel Timeline

Phase 1: Design & Planning (4-8 weeks)

We begin with in-depth consultations to understand your vision, lifestyle, and budget. Our team creates detailed plans, 3D renderings, and material selections. This phase includes permit applications and contractor scheduling. Taking time here prevents costly changes during construction.

Phase 2: Demolition & Structural Work (2-4 weeks)

Selective demolition removes outdated elements while preserving what stays. Any structural modifications—wall removals, beam installations, foundation work—happen during this phase. We also address hidden issues like outdated wiring or plumbing discovered during demo.

Phase 3: Rough-In Work (3-6 weeks)

Behind-the-walls work includes electrical rewiring, plumbing relocations, HVAC modifications, and insulation upgrades. Smart home infrastructure is installed during this phase. Inspections verify code compliance before walls close.

Phase 4: Finishing Work (6-12 weeks)

The transformation becomes visible: drywall, trim, cabinetry, flooring, tile, paint, fixtures, and appliances. This phase takes the most time because each room moves through multiple trades in sequence.

Phase 5: Final Details (1-2 weeks)

Touch-ups, final inspections, hardware installation, cleaning, and quality walkthrough. We don't consider a project complete until you're delighted with every detail.

Total Timeline: 4-8 months

Most comprehensive whole-home renovations in San Antonio take 4-8 months from design through completion. Your project manager provides a detailed schedule during planning so you can make appropriate living arrangements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Whole Home Remodeling

Can I live in my home during a whole-house renovation?

It depends on the scope. Minor renovations may allow you to stay by working room-by-room. Comprehensive renovations that affect multiple systems simultaneously typically require temporary housing for 2-4 months. We'll discuss this during planning and help you make appropriate arrangements.

Do I need permits for a whole home remodel?

Yes. San Antonio requires permits for structural changes, electrical work, plumbing modifications, and HVAC updates. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our full-service approach, ensuring your renovation meets code and is properly documented for future resale.

How do you protect areas not being renovated?

We install plastic barriers, floor protection, and air filtration systems to contain dust and debris. Areas completed early receive protective coverings until the entire project finishes. Our crews clean daily to maintain a safe, organized job site.

What's the return on investment for a whole home remodel?

While ROI varies by project, comprehensive renovations in San Antonio typically recoup 50-70% of investment at resale. More importantly, you'll enjoy a home customized to your needs for years before any potential sale. The daily quality-of-life improvement often outweighs financial calculations.

Can you work with my existing floor plan or do I need an architect?

Our design-build approach includes experienced designers who can optimize your existing floor plan without hiring a separate architect for most projects. For major structural changes or additions, we collaborate with licensed architects and include that coordination in our services.

What if we discover hidden problems during renovation?

It happens—older homes especially may have hidden wiring issues, plumbing problems, or structural concerns not visible until demolition. We maintain contingency allowances in budgets and communicate immediately when discoveries occur, presenting options before proceeding.
