Ben-Rick Construction Inc.

Remodeling Contractor in Fresno, CA

A better house without leaving Fresno

Fresno is home base for Ben-Rick Construction Inc. Our office is at 352 W Bedford Ave Ste 118, and most of our remodeling work happens in houses around the city. In the older central neighborhoods, that often means a kitchen that hasn't changed in decades or a single cramped bathroom. Up in north Fresno the houses are newer, and the problem is usually a floor plan the family has outgrown. Either way, the remodel starts with how you actually use the rooms.

Remodeling Contractor work in Fresno

Remodeling a house you live in takes a plan for the whole household. We decide early which bathroom stays open, where the fridge and microwave go while the kitchen is apart and how the work area gets sealed off. Demo, framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, cabinets and floors run in one order under one crew, so trades don't pile up in your hallway. A remodel inside city limits may need a permit from the City of Fresno.

It begins with a phone call and a visit. We walk the rooms with you, look for clues about what's behind the walls and talk through what you want changed. You get a written scope and estimate before any demo, and projects start around $5,000. Ricky Cruz stays your contact through the job, and we finish with a final walkthrough of every room we touched.

Typical remodeling contractor projects in Fresno

Getting a family home ready to sell

Grown kids inherit or help sell the house their parents lived in for years, somewhere in central Fresno. The rooms are sound, but buyers will notice the worn carpet, the chipped counters and the doors that drag. We walk the house with the family and sort what is worth doing from what can stay. The written scope usually covers new floor finishes, fresh countertops, updated hardware, drywall patching and a few repairs a home inspector would flag. Our crew handles each item in order, and the family gets one contact to call. At the end we walk every room together so nothing on the list gets missed.

Refreshing an office suite interior

A business owner leases a small office along one of Fresno's commercial corridors, and the space still looks like the last tenant's. Think tired carpet, a reception counter nobody likes and a break area with one outlet. This is interior renovation work, and it follows the same steps as a home remodel. We walk the suite, talk about how staff and visitors move through it and write a scope before anything comes apart. Demo, metal stud framing for a new wall, electrical, sheetrock, millwork and floor finishes run on one plan. Work can be sequenced around business hours, and the City of Fresno may need to review the changes.

Two bathrooms, one after the other

A north Fresno family has two bathrooms that both need a full redo, and nobody wants to shower at the gym for a month. The plan is simple: finish one, then start the other. We walk both rooms, check the plumbing under each and write a single scope that covers the pair, so the tile, fixtures and vanities feel related when both are done. The first bath gets demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical, sheetrock, tile and finish work before the second one is touched. We talk through how to keep a shower available while the work is underway. When the second room is done, we walk both with the family and go over every detail.

FAQ

Remodeling Contractor in Fresno: questions

Our central Fresno house still has a wall cutting the kitchen off from the dining room. Can that wall come out?

Often it can. We check whether the wall carries load and what plumbing or wiring runs through it. If it's structural, the plan includes a beam sized to carry that load, and it all goes into the written scope.

I'm in north Fresno and the builder-grade bathroom already looks tired. Is it worth remodeling a newer house?

It can be. Newer baths usually have sound framing and plumbing, so the work can focus on the shower, vanity, tile and lighting you actually want. We'll price the exact scope after seeing the room.

We've got two kids and one bathroom in our Fresno home. Can a remodel squeeze in a second one?

Sometimes a closet, laundry nook or part of a large bedroom can become a bath. Drain and vent routes decide a lot, so we check those at the site visit before suggesting a layout.

My Fresno kitchen's getting gutted and we're staying put. How are we supposed to eat?

Most families set up a small temporary kitchen in another room with the fridge, a microwave and a folding table. We seal the work area and tell you ahead of time when water or power will be off.

The tile in our Fresno hall bath is cracking and the floor feels soft by the tub. What's going on under there?

Soft spots usually mean the subfloor or framing needs attention. We open it up, repair what's underneath and rebuild the bath on a solid base. The repair is written into the scope before we start.

We're remodeling a house inside Fresno city limits. Which office looks at the permit?

Work inside city limits goes through the City of Fresno building department when a permit is needed. Moving walls, plumbing or electrical often calls for one. We'll talk about what your project likely involves during the walk-through.

Our Fresno house had a property loss and I'd like the rebuild to fix the old layout too. Can you do both?

Yes. We prepare an itemized repair scope for the adjuster, and any upgrades you want beyond the claim get written up separately. That keeps the insurance side clear while you get the rooms you want. Call (559) 257-2397 to set up a visit.

I've got a fairly small project in mind for my Fresno place. Is there a minimum?

Projects start around $5,000. A focused bathroom update or a set of repairs can land in that range, and you'll get a written estimate after we see the house.

I work from home and can't have saws screaming during my calls. Can you plan around that?

Yes. Tell us when your calls usually happen, and we'll schedule demo and cutting around them where we can. Our office runs Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and we set the daily plan with you before work starts.

Our pets are home all day at our Fresno house. How do you keep them away from the work?

We set up the work zone at the start and keep doors, gates and tools inside it. Let us know about your pets at the site visit, and we'll agree on which doors the crew uses.
