Multi-room and full-house renovations for Lakewood Ranch homes, managed under one licensed contractor from demo through final inspection.
Florida Certified Building Contractor · License CBC1257253 · Licensed since 2009
Lakewood Ranch is a different kind of renovation market from the older parts of Manatee County. The homes here are newer, mostly built from the late 1990s through the 2010s across communities like Country Club, Greenbrook, Summerfield, and the newer villages out toward Waterside. The bones are usually sound, so a whole-home renovation in Lakewood Ranch is less about fixing failing systems and more about taking a builder-grade house and bringing every room up to the finish level and layout the owners actually wanted in the first place.
That changes what a whole-home project looks like here. Instead of repiping and rewiring, the work tends to be a coordinated upgrade of finishes across the house: kitchens and baths taken from builder-standard to custom, flooring carried through consistently, millwork and trim added, and primary suites and flex rooms reconfigured for how the family lives now. Because so much of it happens at once, sequencing the trades cleanly is what keeps a multi-room job from dragging, and that is exactly what a single licensed contractor is for.
One thing is specific to Lakewood Ranch: most of its communities sit under an HOA with an architectural review committee, so anything that changes the exterior, from windows and doors to paint color or the elevation, usually needs approval before work starts. We build those submittals into the schedule so the project does not stall waiting on a board. Whether your home is in the Country Club, near Lakewood Ranch Main Street, or out by Waterside, you get the full scope, materials, timeline, and price in writing before any demo, plus a weekly update so you always know where things stand.
We take on multi-room and full-house renovations under one licensed contractor, from demo through final inspection. We work throughout Lakewood Ranch and the surrounding part of Manatee County, including Country Club East, Esplanade, Greenbrook, and Polo Run, and serve homes near local spots like Main Street at Lakewood Ranch, Waterside Place, and Nathan Benderson Park. Every project is permitted and inspected through Manatee County.
If your home is anywhere in Lakewood Ranch (ZIP codes 34202, 34211), we can help. Call or text (941) 284-2218 for a free in-home consultation, usually the same business day.
When the project is more than one room, the value of a single licensed general contractor goes up fast. Hildebrand manages whole-home and multi-room renovations end to end: design, demo, structural work, all the trades, finishes, permits, and inspections. You work with one licensed contractor who owns the whole job, not a tile guy, a plumber, and an electrician you have to coordinate yourself.
You get a weekly update so you always know where the project stands. We work from a written schedule and a written scope locked before work begins.
We do not publish fixed packages for whole-home work, because no two projects are alike. The honest answer is that the price depends on your project, and we put the full number in writing before any work begins.

My experience with Hildebrand Construction & Remodeling was excellent from start to finish. The team was professional, dependable, and highly skilled. They clearly explained the remodeling process, completed the project on time, and delivered high-quality workmanship. The job site was kept clean, communication was smooth throughout, and the final results exceeded my expectations.
Quality. Flexibility. Communication. Those three things really stood out to me. Josh and his team did a fantastic job working around our busy schedule while keeping the project moving forward. The team was very professional.
Yes. We renovate homes across Lakewood Ranch, from the Country Club and Greenbrook to the newer villages near Waterside, on both the Manatee and Sarasota sides of the community. Because most Lakewood Ranch neighborhoods have an HOA architectural review, we build any required approvals into the project schedule. Call or text (941) 284-2218 for a free in-home consultation.
Sometimes, depending on the scope. For larger renovations most clients move out for at least the major demo and rough-in phase. We plan that with you before work starts.
We work from a written schedule, hold a weekly walk-through, and review every major milestone. You always know what is happening this week and next week.
Every project is different. A bathroom remodel is usually 2 to 4 weeks. A kitchen remodel is 4 to 8 weeks. A room or second-story addition runs 2 to 5 months depending on size and permits. You get a written timeline before any work begins.
