Cabinets, counters, appliances, and plumbing/electrical updates drive the range. The top of the band reflects full layout changes and premium finishes; the bottom holds for pull-and-replace scopes on the existing footprint.

Scope yours with Baily in MinneapolisAsk Baily about your Minneapolis remodel and you will not be passed around. The Twin Cities renovation market is unusual in three ways that make the builder vetting exercise harder, not easier: a frost-depth foundation regime that pushes footings 42 to 48 inches down, a Minneapolis 2040 Plan that unlocked triplexes on former single-family lots and rewarded homeowners who could actually deliver middle-housing conversions, and a pre-2005 stucco-moisture disclosure regime that has cost more than one unprepared contractor a reputation. Angi will still route your enquiry to twelve names. Baily will not. We match one Minnesota-licensed Minneapolis builder to your property, your 2040 Plan context, and your scope before the first phone call. A Linden Hills Tudor, a Northeast bungalow and a North Loop warehouse conversion all want different specialisms. One pro per homeowner, from Minneapolis DevelopmentHub permit submission through final Certificate of Occupancy.
