Boca Raton Home Remodel
Kitchen, primary bath, floors and staircase in Boca Pointe, completed in 2016
One project, four rooms: new wood floors through the main living areas, a rebuilt staircase railing, a cream and black granite kitchen and a double-vanity primary bathroom.
Location
Boca Pointe, Boca Raton, FL
Completed
2016
Budget range
$100,001 to $150,000
Scope
Kitchen, bath, floors, stairs
Room by room
Four parts of the house, finished as one job so the materials and details match from the front door to the primary suite.
The kitchen
Cream raised-panel cabinets with glass-front uppers, black granite counters and a granite peninsula that gives the room a second work surface.
The staircase
A stained wood handrail on wrought iron balusters, carried from the stairs across the upstairs landing.
The primary bathroom
A double vanity with matching cream cabinetry, a dark stone top, framed mirrors and a soaking tub.
Floors that tie it together
Dark wood floors run through the living areas and up to the two-story family room, so the house reads as one space.
Why do one remodel instead of four?
Because the expensive parts of a remodel are the parts every room shares. Demolition, permits, dumpsters, flooring and painting all happen once instead of four times, and the homeowner lives through one disruption instead of a year of them.
It also keeps the house consistent. Cabinet colors, stone, hardware and floors were chosen together, so the kitchen, the bathroom and the staircase look like they belong to the same home.
What changed in this house?
- Dark wood floors through the main living areas and family room.
- A new stair railing with a stained handrail and wrought iron balusters.
- A kitchen with cream raised-panel cabinets, glass-front uppers and black granite.
- A primary bathroom with a double vanity and soaking tub.

Common questions
What people ask about remodeling a home in Boca Raton
Is $100,000 enough to renovate a house?
It can be, depending on how much of the house you touch. This Boca Raton remodel, which covered the kitchen, a primary bathroom, flooring and the staircase railing, landed in the $100,001 to $150,000 range. A budget near $100,000 can cover a kitchen and a bathroom, or new finishes across the whole house, but rarely both together with layout changes.
How much would it cost to renovate a 2,000 sq ft house?
There is no honest per-square-foot answer, because cost follows scope, not size. A 2,000 square foot house that only needs paint and flooring costs a fraction of one getting a new kitchen, new bathrooms and a reworked layout. The way to a real number is a walkthrough and a written scope, room by room.
Do you need a permit to remodel a house in Boca Raton?
For most work beyond cosmetic finishes, yes. Plumbing, electrical, structural, window and door changes need a permit and inspections. Many neighborhoods with a Boca Raton mailing address, including Boca Pointe, sit in unincorporated Palm Beach County, so the permit comes from the county rather than the City of Boca Raton. Confirm which office has jurisdiction before the job is priced.
Do you need HOA approval to remodel in a Boca Raton community?
Often, yes. Many Boca Raton communities, including gated ones like Boca Pointe, require architectural or board approval before exterior changes, and some set rules for interior work too, such as working hours, contractor insurance and parking. Get the association requirements in writing before the schedule is set.
Should you renovate the whole house at once or room by room?
Doing it at once usually costs less overall, because demolition, permits, flooring and painting happen in one pass, and you live with one disruption instead of several. Room by room spreads the cost out but repeats the setup each time. On this Boca Raton house, the kitchen, bathroom, floors and stair railing were done as one project.
How long does a whole-home remodel take?
Plan on several months. A remodel covering a kitchen, a bathroom and new flooring through the house typically runs three to five months on site once permits are issued, and longer if walls move or materials are back-ordered.
