We recently had our bathroom remodeled by Remo and Demo Solutions LLC, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless. Serge, our main point of contact, was incredibly professional, responsive, and easy to work with.
His team was just as fantastic-skilled, efficient, and respectful throughout the entire project.

Frequently Asked Questions
ASK SERGIE
Most home office remodels in Clark County require a permit. Any new dedicated circuit, panel work, or structural change (like removing a wall or adding a window) triggers one. Cosmetic-only work such as paint, flooring, and trim typically does not. We pull and manage all permits ourselves so you don't have to navigate the City of Vancouver or Clark County process.
Yes, and it's one of the most common home office projects we handle in older Vancouver neighborhoods where spare rooms are scarce. A garage conversion includes wall, floor, and ceiling insulation, extending HVAC, new electrical, flooring over the slab, and swapping the garage door for a finished wall with a window.
The best home office room has the fewest shared walls with noisy spaces like the kitchen, laundry, or kids' rooms. North-facing windows reduce screen glare, and a spot with its own HVAC damper gives you independent temperature control. If your home doesn't have a room that fits, we build one. Garage conversions, bonus room buildouts, and bedroom-to-office remodels are most of what we do.
Our carpenters handle all built-in millwork in-house. That matters because electrical boxes, cable pass-throughs, and outlet placement have to line up with the built-in, not land three inches off because two different trades didn't coordinate. One crew, one plan, one install.
If the conversion creates habitable space, a building permit is typically required in the applicable jurisdiction. Depending on the project, a change of use or occupancy permit may also be required, and additional trade permits may apply. Remo & Demo Solutions can assist with permit coordination.
When permitted correctly, ADU conversions show one of the strongest ROI in Clark County. Without the proper permitting, appraisers will not count the new square footage.
Clark County generally requires a minimum 7'6" clear ceiling height for habitable rooms. Many attached garages start around 8' to 9' raw, but finished height can be reduced by floor and ceiling buildout. We verify the actual dimensions during the first consultation.
Yes we are happy to help convert a detached garage into a ADU. This process commonly has a more streamlined permitting process here in the PNW. Plumbing and electricity runs become more complicated but our process stays the same otherwise.
An ADU is a legal separate dwelling unit with its own kitchen, bathroom, sleeping area, entrance, and often independent utilities. A garage conversion remodeled for non-residential uses like an office, gym, or entertainment room doesn't require full dwelling standards.

Most basement remodels in Vancouver, WA require permits, especially when the project includes structural changes, new plumbing or electrical work, adding bedrooms or bathrooms, or installing egress windows. Purely cosmetic updates like paint and flooring typically do not require permits. We can help manage the permit application and inspection process.
Yes. We regularly convert unfinished basements into accessory dwelling units (ADUs) for rental income, multigenerational living, or guest suites. ADU conversions require egress windows, separate utilities in some cases, and City of Vancouver permit approval, all of which we handle in-house. We are able to work 24/7 with our 2 separate crews to expedite this process.
Yes. Every basement project starts with a free in-home consultation and a written, itemized estimate, no deposit required to get a quote.
Every basement remodel we do starts with a moisture assessment during the free consultation. If your basement shows signs of water intrusion, we'll recommend drainage, sump pumps, or perimeter waterproofing before finish work begins. We build every wall with closed-cell spray foam and mold-resistant drywall rated for below-grade environments.
It depends on the scope. If every bathroom and the kitchen are being demoed at the same time, most families find it easier to stay elsewhere during the rough-in phase. We map out a phasing plan during the estimate that gives you a realistic picture of when each area is offline.
Yes. Any work involving electrical, plumbing, structural modifications, or window and door changes in Clark County requires permits. We handle all permit applications, schedule inspections, and secure final sign-offs as part of the project.
A remodel changes the structure or layout — moving walls, altering floor plans, reconfiguring spaces. A renovation updates finishes and fixtures within the existing layout. Most whole home projects involve both, and we handle the full range.
Yes. Demolition is one of our core services. Our crew handles all interior demo, haul-off, and site prep in-house. Keeping demo under the same roof as construction means better coordination and fewer gaps between phases.
In Clark County, Washington, any shower remodel that involves moving or adding plumbing lines requires a plumbing permit. This includes most tub-to-shower conversions and any project where the drain or valve location changes. Remo & Demo Solutions pulls all required permits and schedules inspections as part of the project — it's built into our scope, not an extra charge.
A custom tile shower is built to your exact dimensions with individually set tiles over a waterproof membrane, offering full design flexibility and a lifespan of 20+ years when installed correctly. A prefab acrylic or fiberglass unit comes in standard sizes, installs faster, and costs less upfront but typically lasts 10–15 years. Remo & Demo Solutions installs both and will recommend whichever option fits your bathroom layout and budget.
Yes, a steam shower can often be added during a bathroom remodel if the bathroom has the right space and electrical capacity. Steam showers require a fully enclosed, vapor-sealed enclosure, steam-rated materials, a dedicated 240-volt circuit, and ventilation outside the shower area. The generator is usually installed in a nearby closet or cabinet, and we confirm feasibility during our on-site consultation in the Vancouver, WA and Portland metro area.
A curbless shower eliminates the raised threshold at the entry, creating a barrier-free transition from the bathroom floor into the shower. It's the best option for aging-in-place planning and wheelchair accessibility, and it gives any bathroom a clean, modern look. The installation requires precise floor slope — a quarter inch per foot toward the drain — and a continuous waterproof membrane across the entire wet area, which means tighter tolerances than a standard curbed shower.
In older homes — particularly those built in the 1980s and 1990s in the Vancouver, WA area — contractors commonly find moisture-damaged backer board, darkened or soft wall studs, and sometimes active mold growth behind the tile. Cracked grout and failing caulk allow moisture to reach the framing over years of daily use. This hidden damage is one of the main reasons a full tear-out to the studs is standard practice during a shower remodel rather than tiling over existing surfaces.
The cost of an island depends on size, countertop material, and whether it includes plumbing or electrical work. A basic island with cabinetry and a quartz top costs less than one with a prep sink, dishwasher, and waterfall-edge countertop. We provide a detailed written estimate after your free in-home consultation so you know exactly what the island portion of your remodel will cost.
As a starting point, we look for at least 12 feet by 12 feet of open kitchen floor space. You need 36–42 inches of clearance on every side for comfortable movement. Some kitchens that look too small actually work once we reconfigure the existing layout. That's why the in-home measurement is the first step.
Yes. Island sinks and dishwashers require supply lines, drain lines, and proper venting run through your subfloor. Homes with crawl space access are straightforward to plumb. Slab foundations add complexity and cost. We assess your specific situation during the consultation and give you a straight answer on what's involved.
If the island includes new electrical circuits or plumbing — and most do — then yes. Both Clark County and Multnomah County require permits for that work. We handle all permit applications and schedule all inspections as part of the remodel.
Sometimes, but often the existing cabinet layout needs adjusting to create proper clearances around the island. We evaluate this during the consultation, but mind you we are a full remodeling company. We will not take jobs that are just installing a kitchen island.
No. Both Clark County, Multnomah County and the City of Vancouver classify countertop replacement as finish work, which is exempt from building permits. However, if your remodel involves plumbing relocation, electrical changes, or structural modifications like removing a wall to create an island then you will need a permit. Our team handles the full permit process when it applies.
For daily heavy use, quartz is the most practical choice. It's non-porous, doesn't require sealing, and resists stains from coffee, wine, and cooking oils. Granite is the better option if heat resistance is your top priority, it handles hot pans directly without risk of damage, but it does need annual resealing to stay stain-resistant. We walk you through the tradeoffs in your consultation based on how your household actually uses the kitchen.
We generally advise against it. New cabinets change the layout dimensions, which means your old countertop template no longer matches. The result is usually visible gaps, uneven overhangs, and stress at sink cutouts. Replacing both during the same remodel avoids rework and gives you a better-looking, longer-lasting result.
Cost depends on the material (quartz vs. granite vs. marble), the total square footage, and the complexity of your layout — island overhangs, waterfall edges, and multiple sink cutouts all affect pricing. We offer competitive, transparent estimates and the number we quote is the number you pay. Contact us for a free in-home estimate specific to your kitchen.
Countertop replacement is part of our full kitchen remodeling service so we don't offer it as a standalone swap. The reason is practical: your countertops need to be coordinated with your cabinets, backsplash, layout, and plumbing as a single project. That's how you get a result that looks intentional and lasts, rather than one piece that doesn't quite match everything around it.
Our crew removes the existing surface, disconnects plumbing, and hauls all debris out of your home the same day. You don't need to arrange separate disposal.
Cabinet remodeling is part of our full kitchen renovation service. This approach ensures your new cabinets are designed to work with your countertops, flooring, and layout — not installed in isolation. It's how we deliver results that look and function like a finished kitchen.
For stock cabinets, the cabinet portion of your kitchen remodel typically takes about 7 days. Custom cabinets take 2 to 3 weeks, though timelines can be expedited depending on the project. We provide a clear schedule during your consultation so there are no surprises.
We install both stock and fully custom cabinets. Stock options come in a variety of prefabricated styles from multiple brands, giving you flexibility on both design and budget. Custom cabinets are built to your kitchen's exact dimensions and specifications.
Standard cabinet and countertop replacement is classified as finish work and is exempt from building permits in both Clark County and the City of Vancouver. However, if your kitchen remodel involves electrical, plumbing, or structural changes, permits are required — and our team handles all permit applications on your behalf.
Most of our standard bathroom remodels are completed within two weeks from demolition to final walkthrough. Projects that involve major layout changes or structural work may take longer. We provide a detailed timeline during your free consultation.
Most bathroom remodels that involve plumbing or electrical changes require permits from Clark County. We handle all permit applications and schedule every required inspection on your behalf.
Yes. Most homeowners stay home throughout the project. We use dust containment systems and protect finished areas of your house. If you have a second bathroom available, your daily routine stays mostly uninterrupted.
It happens — especially in older Vancouver-area homes. If we uncover hidden damage, we stop work and walk you through the scope and cost of repairs before moving forward. We never make decisions about your home without your approval.
Yes, if space is available then we can move walls and accommodate.
We have a showroom located in Vancouver, Washington where you can go and look at all the options we have.
Most structural demolition projects require a permit from your local jurisdiction. We handle the entire permitting process for you, whether that’s Clark County, the City of Vancouver, the City of Portland, or another municipality in our service area.
We typically begin work within 72 hours of your first call. If your project requires permits, we’ll start the application immediately and schedule the demolition as soon as approval comes through.
We handle full house teardowns, garage demolitions, interior gutting, pool removals, shed removals, deck teardowns, and other residential and commercial structures. If it’s on your property and it needs to come down, we can likely handle it.
Every project includes full debris removal and site cleanup. We haul away all materials, sweep the area, and do a walkthrough with you before we consider the job complete. Your property is left ready for whatever comes next.
In most cases, yes. We set up dust barriers, floor protection, and containment systems to isolate the work area. During your assessment, we’ll let you know if there are any temporary disruptions to water, electrical, or other systems that might affect daily living.
Most full kitchen gut remodels are completed in approximately two weeks. Our two-shift crew capability allows us to maintain progress around the clock, which is significantly faster than the industry average. Partial renovations take on average 1 to 1 and a half week.
Most kitchen remodels that involve plumbing, electrical, or structural changes require permits. Our team handles all permit applications whether your project falls under Clark County, the City of Vancouver, or Multnomah County. You won’t need to manage any of that paperwork yourself.
Yes, in most cases. We use dust containment systems during demolition and keep the worksite clean and organized throughout the project. We’ll also help you plan a temporary kitchen setup so your daily routine stays as close to normal as possible.
We offer both prefabricated and fully custom options. Our team works with materials ranging from quartz and granite countertops to semi-custom and custom-built cabinetry. During your design consultation, we walk you through every choice and help you select what fits your space and budget.

Yes, 100%. There's no fee and no obligation. We'll come out, look at the space, talk through what you're looking for, and give you an honest assessment. If you decide to move forward, great. If not, no hard feelings.
