Full Home Remodeling
in Portland, OR

Portland homes are character-rich and complicated — Craftsman bungalows, mid-century ranches, older plumbing, knob-and-tube surprises.

Serving Portland and Multnomah County since 2015.

As seen on

Portland, OR Homes Built Right.
Built to Last.

Portland homes have history — and history means layers. Older electrical, outdated layouts, permits that need City of Portland sign-off. We plan for what is likely hiding behind the walls before demolition, not after. One project manager from design to final inspection, with our in-house crew and licensed trade partners on one schedule.

Kitchen, dining & living room remodel

Serden remodeled our kitchen, dining room, living room and entry way. Dennis and Alex were especially friendly and easy to communicate with. Every person we had contact with was professional and did quality work. When unexpected issues came up, they solved the problems efficiently so we didn't have to stress about anything. They worked really hard to make sure we were happy at each step of the process. We love our new living space!

Whole-home update

I purchased my first home a couple years ago, which was a time capsule from the 60s/70s. I got multiple quotes on getting my house updated. I of course wanted the updates to be budget friendly, but quality enough to last for years to come. Serden Group helped make suggestions that saved me money (to no benefit to themselves). With some of the other quotes I received I couldn't understand where so much of the cost was coming from and the quotes themselves were not clear in what I was being charged for. Serden Group however was very transparent in their pricing. The work they did is absolutely beautiful. Communication was consistent and timely. Their crew is incredibly kind and professional and cleaned up everyday. I think the scariest thing for most people getting work done our their homes is finding a trust worthy company to do so. There are too many occasions of companies having inflated pricing, hidden expenses, shoddy work, or poor communication. If you're looking for a company you can trust and to treat your home with the best care, give these guys a call.

Condo renovation

I recently worked with Serden Group on my condo renovation, which included replacing floors, removing popcorn from ceilings, and replacing kitchen counters and cabinets. I loved working with Dennis and David. Dennis helped with input on the kitchen design and was great in helping to reduce stress. They were patient with me and my questions. Their crew was great. And as messy of a job that it was, they managed to leave the place clean when they left for the night. The work was great, and they care for the space as if it;s their own.

Whole-home remodel

Fantastic experience! They renovated my entire home with new floors, a full kitchen remodel, and a bathroom upgrade. The kitchen looks amazing with new cabinets, countertop, and appliances, and the bathroom to shower conversion turned out beautifully. Great quality work, finished on time, easy to communicate with, and their pricing was very competitive. Highly recommend!

Bedroom, bathrooms & kitchen cabinets

We have used Serden Team for 3 projects. They remodeled our master bedroom and bathroom, refaced kitchen cabinets and built a beautiful surround for my refrigerator so it looks built in and remodeled a secondary bathroom. Their work is fantastic. They are easy to work with and communication is the best. I can trust them to do a great job and do the work properly the first time. Wonderful company and will refer them gladly.

Doors, flooring & paint

They did an excellent job. They were fast and professional. They installed all new doors throughout my house, raised the floor in my family room and office, installed new flooring, and painted both rooms. It looks wonderful. I will be so happy to use the rooms once everything is put back where I want it. We have more work we want done in the future and I will definitely be hiring these guys again.

Whole-home remodel

This company did a great job on an extensive remodel of a mid 70s home. They upgraded the electrical, plumbing, removed walls, remodeled the bathrooms and kitchen, and put in all new tile flooring. All the home issues were addressed, and we could not be any happier.

Primary bathroom remodel

We recently hired Serden Group LLC for a major master bathroom remodel, and we’re extremely happy with the results. Our original space had a large soaker tub and a small 36" x 36" fiberglass shower. After receiving multiple quotes, we chose Serden Group because they offered a clear plan, a thoughtful design approach, and confidence in handling a full transformation. Our project included several significant changes: removing the soaker tub, building a large, fully tiled walk-in shower, relocating the toilet, installing LVP flooring, and even expanding our master closet by moving a wall. They were consistently flexible and willing to work with every new idea or adjustment we brought up. They took the time to explain options, talk through structural considerations, and make sure each decision supported the overall design. One thing we appreciated was that they provided an initial timeline and projected completion date — and they met it. Even when we experienced a family emergency, they were incredibly accommodating and adjusted their schedule to make things easier for us without slowing the project down. The craftsmanship throughout the remodel is excellent. The tile work is beautiful, the closet expansion looks seamless, and the new layout is far more functional and visually appealing. The finished space feels like a true upgrade to our home. We’re very pleased with the entire experience and highly recommend Serden Group LLC to anyone considering a bathroom remodel. They delivered quality work, stayed true to their timeline, and were genuinely supportive when we needed flexibility.

Design-build remodeling
in Portland

Design-build means one company is responsible for the design, the selections, the permits and the construction, under one contract. For a multi-room remodel in an older Portland house, that matters most where design decisions and construction realities collide. Here is how it works, and what decides the cost and the calendar.

Design-build versus hiring separately

In the traditional route you hire a designer or architect, finish the drawings, then ask contractors to bid. Design-build puts the builder in the room while the plan is still changing, so you hear what a moved wall or a new beam costs before it is drawn into the set. The tradeoff is that you choose the builder earlier — so ask how design fees are charged and when the construction price becomes fixed.

What one contract can cover

A whole-home project usually combines several of our services: kitchens, bathrooms, interior layout and finish work, additions, ADUs and exterior work. Our in-house crew handles the build, with licensed, vetted trade partners for specialties such as electrical and plumbing, and engineers where the structure changes — all scheduled by one project manager.

What sets the cost

Finish level matters, but the big swings come from the plan: removing or moving walls (a bearing wall needs an engineered beam), relocating kitchens and bathrooms away from existing drains, and upgrading systems that an older house has outgrown — electrical service, panel capacity, supply lines, ventilation and insulation. We open the most likely problem areas during planning, where we can, so fewer of them are discovered mid-build.

What sets the schedule

Three things set most timelines: how quickly design and selections are settled, permit review, and long-lead items such as cabinets and windows. Structural or layout changes inside Portland need building permits from Portland Permitting & Development, alongside plumbing, electrical and mechanical permits. Ordering long-lead items before demolition is the most effective way to shorten the time the house is torn up.

Living in the house during the work

Many homeowners stay put. That usually means phasing so one bathroom and a makeshift kitchen keep working, sealing off work zones for dust, and accepting a longer schedule. In homes built before 1978, demolition that disturbs paint has to follow the EPA's lead-safe rules, which is one more reason some families move out for the heaviest phase.

All at once, or in phases

Doing everything at once usually costs less overall — one demolition, one set of rough-ins, one round of permits — but it needs the full budget up front. Phasing spreads the cost, and works best when the plan is designed as a whole first, so the kitchen you build this year does not have to be reopened for the bathroom wiring next year.

Portland's former Bureau of Development Services now operates as Portland Permitting & Development. Homes outside city limits — Lake Oswego, Beaverton, Tigard, Milwaukie and others — are permitted by their own city, and we confirm current requirements for each address.

Full Home Remodeling in Portland, OR —
Common Questions

Full home remodeling in Portland, OR typically ranges from $50,000 for targeted renovations to $300,000+ for complete whole-home transformations. Serden Group provides detailed estimates after a free in-home consultation.
Full home remodels in Portland typically take 3–6 months of construction depending on scope. Projects with structural changes, extensive permit review, long-lead items or work in several areas at once may take longer. We provide a clear project timeline before construction begins.
Design-build means one company handles design, selections, permits and construction under one contract, instead of hiring a designer first and then asking builders to bid. The builder prices the plan while it is still being drawn, so cost surprises surface early. Ask any design-build firm how design fees are charged and when the construction price is fixed.
Not always. Many homeowners stay in their homes during renovations. Larger whole-home projects may require temporary relocation for safety and efficiency. We advise you at the planning stage.
Usually. Work that moves walls, changes structure, or adds or moves plumbing, electrical or ventilation needs permits. Inside Portland city limits they are issued by Portland Permitting & Development (formerly the Bureau of Development Services); homes in other cities are permitted by that city. As a licensed Oregon contractor (CCB #239429), Serden Group handles permitting and inspections on your behalf.
We offer full home renovations, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, home additions, interior renovations, and complete design-build packages for Portland, OR homeowners.
