Lake Butler House
The porch under the master bath had failed. We repaired the structure and rebuilt the bath as a curbless room open to the lake—so the space works better and feels connected to the view.

Home remodeling in Orlando & Central Florida that actually improves how you live.
We design and build whole-home renovations, kitchens, baths, and additions so the finished rooms work better, connect better, and stay comfortable as your needs change. One team from the first walk-through to the final walkthrough.

See the houses we’ve already changed.
Real Central Florida homes—Lake Butler, Reunion, Winter Park—where we fixed structural problems, opened up layouts, and built rooms that feel like they were always meant to be there.
Reunion addition
We turned unused height above the existing house into a bedroom, bath, and living area that feels like it was always part of the home.

Winter Park whole-house
The traditional street face stayed. Behind it, the kitchen, living rooms, and primary bath were rebuilt so the whole house feels like one place.

A better house, not just a newer one.
Most remodels stop at finishes. We look at how the rooms connect, how the kitchen actually gets used, and whether the house will still work well five or ten years from now. Comfort, safety, and flow improve along with the look.
What we do
The work, in order.
Whole-home renovations
When the house needs more than a cosmetic update, we rethink the layout, the finishes, how it works, and the technology.

Aging in place
Built for how you live now and later.
A bathroom you can walk straight into. Better light. Safer movement through the house. We plan accessibility and smart-home safety into the renovation so the finished space stays comfortable as needs change. Lake Butler’s curbless bath faces the lake. In Reunion, a garden tub became a roll-in. In Orlando, the wet room is one continuous floor.
- Lake Butler, Windermere — curbless bath, structure under it, shades at the glass
- Reunion — a garden tub rebuilt as a roll-in
- Orlando wet room — one floor, no curb

“My bathroom remodel is a dream come true. It is exactly what I hoped for, only better. And they were so easy to work with! I'm already discussing a kitchen remodel with them to complete next.”
Jeannine Beehler
“Our house is about 20 years old and was very outdated. Karen came in and offered so many suggestions that have opened up, brightened up and modernized our home. And the process from start to finish only took a few months! We couldn't be happier.”
Nathan (ANTI)
“We had a really good experience with iDesignBuildFlorida. We hired them to renovate some spaces for our home including our son & daughter rooms, and from the first design meeting they actually listened to what we (and the kids) wanted. They took care of everything — design, permits, and the actual build. If you’re in Central Florida and looking for a design-build company that doesn’t turn the process into a headache, I’d recommend giving them a call.”
