Main Floor Renovation in North Atlanta

Renovate the Whole Floor, Not One Room at a Time

Many North Atlanta homes built in the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s share the same main-floor layout: a formal living room that's rarely used, a separate dining room, a closed kitchen, and a family room at the back. A main floor renovation reworks that entire level so it fits how families live today — open sight lines, a connected kitchen, and spaces that get used every day.

Because Grace Construction handles kitchens, flooring, trim, and structural work under one roof, we can renovate the whole level on one plan and one timeline instead of stacking separate projects over several years.

What a Main Floor Renovation Can Include

• Open-concept reconfiguration — removing or opening walls between the kitchen, dining, and family room, with beams and permits where a wall is load-bearing.
• Repurposing formal rooms — turning a formal living room into a home office, playroom, or library.
• Continuous flooring — one hardwood or LVP floor across the level with seamless transitions.
• Trim and millwork — new baseboards, casing, built-ins, and fireplace surrounds.
• Lighting plans — recessed lighting, pendants, and switching laid out for the new floor plan.
• Kitchen integration — combining the work with a full kitchen remodel so the kitchen and living areas are designed together.

Structural Work, Done Carefully

Opening a main floor often means changing a load-bearing wall. We assess the structure, coordinate the engineering and permits that Georgia requires for structural changes, and use licensed trade partners for electrical and plumbing relocations. Your home stays safe, and the finished opening looks original to the house.

Our Main Floor Renovation Process

1. Free consultation. We walk the entire level with you, discuss how you want to use each space, and identify structural, electrical, and HVAC considerations.

2. Design and flat-rate estimate. A written plan and a flat-rate quote for the full scope — no surprises once walls come down.

3. Construction. We protect the rest of the home, phase the work to keep you as functional as possible, and send regular updates.

4. Final walkthrough. A room-by-room inspection with you before we call the job complete.

How Long Does a Main Floor Renovation Take?

Whole-floor projects vary widely depending on wall removals, whether the kitchen is included, and the amount of flooring and trim. Each main floor renovation is scoped individually, and we'll give you an exact timeline during your free consultation.

Why One Contractor Matters for a Whole Floor

When separate trades renovate one room at a time, floors don't line up, trim doesn't match, and lighting feels patched together. With Grace Construction, Silvio personally scopes and oversees the whole level, so the finished main floor reads as one design. Every project is fully insured and backed by our workmanship guarantee.
