The short answer

How much does a whole-home renovation cost in Garland?

A whole-home renovation in Garland typically runs $95,000 to $350,000 through UHS Remodeling, depending on square footage, how many systems you touch, and whether the scope includes structural changes like removing walls or a garage conversion. Permits are pulled from the City of Garland Building Inspection Department, with intake through the city’s Development and Permitting Center on Main Street. The biggest cost driver specific to Garland is age: with most homes built in the 1960s-1980s, a renovation that “just” updates kitchens and baths frequently uncovers original 45-plus-year-old wiring, cast-iron or galvanized plumbing, dated HVAC, foundation movement, and roofs at end of life. Garland permits major renovations such as foundation repair and roof replacement, so budgeting for those structural items up front keeps a project on its fixed price. UHS works on a fixed-price model with a 3-year workmanship warranty, so the number you approve is the number you pay. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our whole-home renovation cost guide.

01 · Process

How we build a whole-home renovation in Garland.

Most Garland homes were built in the post-WWII boom of the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, when the city’s population quadrupled and then doubled again. The median local home is now 45-plus years old, which is exactly why whole-home renovation is the work UHS Remodeling does most here. A typical Garland renovation isn’t a single room refresh: it’s reworking a traditional or ranch-style floor plan that has never been substantially updated since it was built. We open up compartmentalized 1970s layouts, modernize original kitchens and baths together, replace aging systems, and often fold in a garage conversion or addition on the same project. From the older streets around Duck Creek and Centerville to the established Eastern Hills and Camelot areas, the common thread is mid-century bones with strong lots that reward a full renovation rather than a teardown.

We handle whole-home renovations across Garland, from Duck Creek, Centerville, Embree, and Spring Park to Eastern Hills, Camelot, Club Hill near Lake Ray Hubbard, and the newer Firewheel and Hills of Firewheel area.

A Garland whole-home is half choreography, half plumbing. The hardest part isn’t any single trade — it’s sequencing 8 trades through a single timeline without anyone tripping over the next one.

Do I need a permit to renovate my home in Garland?
+
Yes. Permits for major home renovations are issued by the City of Garland Building Inspection Department, with intake handled at the city’s Development and Permitting Center. Garland specifically permits work like additions, foundation repair, roof replacement, garage conversions, and the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC changes a whole-home renovation involves. UHS Remodeling pulls the required permits and coordinates the separate trade inspections as part of the project.
Is it worth renovating an older 1970s or 1980s Garland home instead of moving?
+
For many Garland homeowners, yes. The city’s mid-century housing stock typically has solid traditional or ranch-style bones on desirable lots in areas like Duck Creek, Eastern Hills, and Centerville, so a whole-home renovation lets you keep your location and Garland ISD zoning while modernizing the layout, kitchen, baths, and systems. UHS Remodeling has completed 5,875+ projects across DFW since 2014 and works on a fixed-price model with a 3-year workmanship warranty.
How much does a whole-home renovation cost in Garland, TX?
+
A whole-home renovation in Garland generally runs $95,000 to $350,000 with UHS Remodeling. Where you land depends on the size of the home, how many systems you update, and whether the scope includes structural changes such as opening up walls or converting a garage. Because most Garland homes date to the 1960s-1980s, renovations here often include updating original wiring, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing, which we price into a fixed quote so there are no surprises.

+
Partial renovations take 10–14 weeks. Full-home renovations run 4–7 months. Gut renovations take 7–12 months.
Can I live in my Garland home during a full renovation?

For partial renovations, yes. For full-home and gut renovations, most families relocate for 3–7 months.
