Jacksonville is one of Florida's largest housing markets, ranging from historic Springfield bungalows to new construction in St. Johns County. True Contractors works across the full range.
Jacksonville Renovation Considerations
Older Jacksonville homes, especially those built pre-1980, often come with challenges that newer builds don't:
- Outdated electrical panels that need upgrading to support modern kitchens
- Galvanized plumbing that should be replaced during a bathroom or kitchen remodel
- Asbestos or lead paint in homes built before 1978 — we test and remediate before demo
- Wood rot in window frames and exterior sheathing from Florida's humidity
Preserving Character in Older Jacksonville Homes
Most Jacksonville homeowners don't want to gut the character out of their older homes. We restore what's worth keeping: original hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, period details. Then we update everything else to match.
Timeline for Jacksonville Renovations
Kitchen remodels: 3–5 weeks. Bathroom remodels: 2–4 weeks. Full home renovations: 3–5 months. Duval County permits typically take 2–4 weeks and we factor that into the schedule from day one so it doesn't push your start date.
