What all custom renovations projects look like in Dover
The Dover homes we work in are mostly 1950s–1990s suburban, plus older downtown stock, typically ranches, split-levels, and two-story colonials. We've completed projects across downtown Dover, Mayfair, Wild Meadows, and the Camden-Wyoming corridor.
Dover is a healthy 1-hour drive from our Wilmington base, we routinely take Kent County projects and bring the same crew, same materials, and same quality standards we run in northern Delaware.

All Custom Renovations FAQs from Dover homeowners
How much does a whole-home renovation cost in Dover, DE?
Basement finishing runs $45,000–$95,000. A whole-floor remodel typically runs $80,000–$200,000. Full gut renovations with structural changes, new mechanicals, and high-end finishes run $200,000 and up. Every estimate is itemized.
Can we live in the home during a whole-home remodel?
Usually yes, we phase the work so at least a kitchen, one bathroom, and bedrooms stay functional. For full gut renovations we'll be honest if temporary housing makes more sense.
Who manages the project, designer, GC, subs?
One Zavala project manager runs everything: design coordination, permits, schedule, materials, and our W-2 crew. You get one phone number, not five.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Zavala & Sons holds a Delaware business license, full general liability insurance, and workers compensation coverage. We provide a current Certificate of Insurance on request.
