How a Spruce project runs, from the first conversation to the warranty.

Every project begins with listening: to the homeowner’s dreams and ideas, budget and timeframe. Spruce Renovations then works with the client and the architect to bring the home to life, as a new custom house, a renovation or an addition.

Raise

New custom homes

A new house starts at one table: the homeowner, the architect and Steve Varner, talking through ideas, budget and timeframe before anything is drawn. Design, estimating and permitting come first, then a curated team of trusted vendors and subcontractors builds it.

Whether the style is Tudor, Craftsman, Country French, Contemporary or Modern, the house is tailored to the needs of the family who will live in it.

Restore

Specialty renovations

To renovate is to reimagine, to reinvent, the function and beauty of existing space. Knowing what works, and what might not, is a key factor in the success of any project Spruce undertakes, and it is why the planning is done before the work begins.

Great rooms, kitchens, baths and formal rooms are reworked with informed design earned through years of experience, and with respect for the homeowner’s investment.

Reimagine

Additions

From a reimagined master suite add-on to an entirely repurposed structure built from the ground up, Spruce can transform your unique vision into a place to call home. The same listening, the same team and the same six stages apply to new square footage as to a new house.

Read about additions

Six stages, one team.

Design, estimating, permitting, construction, management and warranty, in that order. The same company carries the house through each of them.

  1. Design

    Drawn with the homeowner and the architect at the same table, starting from their dreams and ideas.

  2. Estimating

    Set against the budget and timeframe named at the very first conversation.

  3. Permitting

    Handled before construction begins, so the work starts with its paperwork in order.

  4. Construction

    Carried out by trusted and experienced vendors and subcontractors, curated from years in the industry.

  5. Management

    Operational organization balanced daily with the vision of the client and the scope of the project.

  6. Warranty

    The last stage on the list, and part of every Spruce project.

Styles

Tudor, Craftsman, Country French, Contemporary or Modern: each project is tailored to meet the needs of the homeowner.
