Our Services

Complete home remodeling services across Central NY

A remodel should be exciting — not a gamble on whether the contractor comes back after the deposit clears. Too many homeowners have the same story: a project that ran over, a crew that vanished, or a job left almost-but-not-quite finished.

River Roofing and Construction has remodeled and built for Central New York homeowners for 38 years, and a lot of our work comes from the same families calling us back for the next project. We design and build kitchens, baths, basements and full renovations as one team — managing the trades, keeping your home clean, and staying with the job until it’s done right.

Kitchen Remodeling

Full kitchen renovations — cabinets, countertops, flooring, lighting and layout — designed around how you actually cook and live.

Bathroom Remodeling

From a refreshed vanity and tile to a complete tear-out and rebuild, including walk-in showers and modern fixtures.

Basement Finishing

Turn an unused basement into real living space — with the moisture and framing details handled right underneath the finishes.

Mud Rooms & Laundry Rooms

The hardest-working rooms in a Central New York home — built to handle snow, salt and wet gear and keep the mess at the door.

Whole-Home Renovations

Multi-room and full-home projects managed as one coordinated build, from design through the final walkthrough.

Custom Carpentry & Finishes

Trim, built-ins, flooring and the finish work that makes a remodel feel finished, not just functional.

The Real Difference

The part homeowners actually worry about

Picking a remodeler isn’t really about who has the nicest showroom. It’s about who finishes. Here’s what goes wrong on remodels — and how we’re built differently.

The Contractor Who Disappears

The most common remodeling horror story is a job that stalls or a crew that stops showing up. We've been here 38 years, and much of our work is repeat clients — we don't build a business on jobs we don't finish.

Too Many Contractors

When the tile guy, the plumber and the electrician all answer to different bosses, the homeowner ends up as the project manager. We run it as one team and give you a single point of accountability.

Living in a Construction Zone

A remodel means people working in your home. The reviews we're proudest of mention the same things — the crew was professional, kept the site clean, and communicated the whole way. That's the standard, not the exception.

We build the whole building, not just the room.

Years Of Experience Serving Central NY

Design-Build, One Team

How we work: design-build, one team

A remodel is only as smooth as the team running it. We keep design, build and project management under one roof, so the person who planned your space is connected to the crew building it. That means fewer surprises, one number to call, and decisions that actually stick.

The design-build difference:

  • One team, one contract — no juggling separate designers, contractors and trades
  • We manage the trades — licensed plumbing and electrical, coordinated and scheduled by us
  • Kept in the loop — you know what’s happening and what’s next, start to finish
  • We finish — including the punch-list details most homeowners get stuck chasing
Warranty Protection

Backed On Two Fronts

A remodel is backed by the manufacturer warranties on the materials and fixtures you choose, plus our workmanship warranty on the build.

We stand behind the work — which, after 38 years of repeat clients, is the whole reason they call us back.

FAQ

Home Remodeling Questions, Answered

We handle the whole thing. Design, build and project management stay under one roof, and we coordinate the licensed trades — plumbing, electrical and the rest — ourselves. You get one team and one point of contact, start to finish.

It depends on the scope, but a bathroom often runs a couple of weeks and a kitchen longer, more if the layout changes or we find issues behind the walls. We’ll give you a realistic timeline with your estimate and keep you posted as we go.

Yes. Because we’re a construction company, structural changes, bump-outs and layout changes are in our wheelhouse — including anything that touches the exterior of the house.

No. We protect the areas we’re not working in, keep the site clean day to day, and communicate what’s happening. It’s one of the things our repeat clients mention most.

Yes — and we handle the moisture and framing details underneath the finishes, so the space stays dry and comfortable, not just good-looking.

Both. From a single bathroom or a mud room to a full-home renovation, we take on projects of different sizes.

Yes — manufacturer warranties on the materials and fixtures, plus our own workmanship warranty on the build.

Consultation, design and planning around your budget, a written estimate, clean demolition, rough-in (framing, plumbing and electrical coordinated by our team), build and finish, a punch list so nothing gets left for you to chase, and a walkthrough when it’s done.

It depends on the scope — the size of the space and how much is changing, whether the layout moves, material and finish selections, structural changes or work that touches the exterior, and the condition of what’s behind the walls once we open them up. The only way to a real number is a free, no-pressure consultation.
