Whole-Home Remodels

Whole-Home Remodels in the Coachella Valley

Complete home transformations that modernize every room, maximize property value, and reflect your personal style — built by a team with 17+ years of desert expertise.

Transform Your Entire Home with One Trusted Team

A whole home remodel is more than a renovation project — it is a chance to reimagine the way you live. Whether you purchased an older property in La Quinta that needs a complete update or you have simply outgrown the layout of your current Palm Desert residence, a full-scale remodel allows you to address every room, system, and surface under one cohesive plan. At Niem Construction, we specialize in home remodeling in La Quinta and throughout the Coachella Valley, delivering transformations that are as functional as they are beautiful.

Unlike tackling one room at a time, a whole home remodel in the Coachella Valley provides a unified design vision from the front door to the back patio. Our team coordinates every trade — framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, finish carpentry, and more — so that the final result feels intentional and seamless. As a licensed general contractor in La Quinta, CA, we manage the entire scope of work, keeping your project on schedule and within budget while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship.

The Coachella Valley's desert climate presents unique challenges that require experienced hands. From selecting heat-resistant exterior finishes and energy-efficient windows to designing interiors that stay cool without running up utility bills, our 17 years of local experience mean we know exactly which materials and methods perform best under the desert sun. Homeowners across Indian Wells, Indio, and Palm Desert trust us because we understand these details better than any out-of-area contractor ever could.

As a house renovation contractor in Palm Desert and the surrounding communities, we have completed over 500 projects ranging from mid-century modern refreshes to ground-up interior redesigns. Every engagement begins with a detailed consultation where we listen to your goals, evaluate the condition of your home, and provide a transparent estimate with no hidden fees. Our commitment to honest communication and on-time delivery has earned us a 5.0 Google rating and a reputation as one of the valley's most reliable residential remodeling firms.

Whether you want to open up a cramped floor plan, upgrade outdated kitchens and bathrooms, replace worn flooring throughout, or improve your home's energy performance, a whole-home remodel with Niem Construction means you get one point of contact, one timeline, and one team accountable for every detail. We are ready to help you build the home you have always envisioned — right here in La Quinta and across the Coachella Valley.

FAQ

Common Questions About Whole-Home Remodels

Costs vary widely depending on the size of your home, the scope of work, and the materials you choose. In the Coachella Valley, most whole-home remodels range from $100 to $250+ per square foot. A 1,500-square-foot home could run between $150,000 and $375,000 or more for a high-end transformation. We provide detailed, transparent estimates after an in-home assessment so there are no surprises.
A typical whole-home remodel in the La Quinta and Palm Desert area takes between three and six months, depending on the complexity of the project and whether structural changes are involved. Larger homes or projects requiring extensive permits may take longer. We establish a clear timeline during the planning phase and provide regular progress updates throughout construction.
In most cases, it is best to make alternative living arrangements during a full-scale remodel. When we are reworking electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems throughout the house, living on-site can be uncomfortable and may slow the project. However, for phased remodels where we work on one section at a time, staying in the home may be feasible. We will discuss the best approach for your specific situation during the planning stage.
A well-executed whole-home remodel can recoup 50% to 75% of its cost at resale, and in desirable Coachella Valley markets like La Quinta, Indian Wells, and Palm Desert, the return can be even higher. Beyond resale value, you gain years of improved comfort, energy savings, and the satisfaction of living in a home that truly fits your lifestyle. Kitchens and bathrooms consistently deliver the strongest ROI.
Yes. Any work involving structural changes, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC modifications requires permits from your local building department in Riverside County. As a licensed general contractor in La Quinta, CA, we handle all permit applications, inspections, and code compliance on your behalf. Pulling proper permits protects your investment and ensures the work meets current safety standards.
