Transform the Way You Live in Your Home
Sometimes a single-room remodel isn't enough — and sometimes a targeted refresh in a few key areas is all you need. Whether you've purchased a fixer-upper, want to open up a dated floor plan, need to update a few rooms on a budget, or are ready to elevate your entire home, RCV Construction delivers interior renovations scaled to your goals and your budget. Our services include kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, finish carpentry, custom built-ins, and much more — all under one contract.
We manage every trade — framing, electrical, plumbing, flooring, cabinetry, tile, finish carpentry, and painting — under one contract and one accountable team. No juggling multiple contractors, no miscommunication, no gaps in accountability.
"We did a full interior renovation — opened up the floor plan, new flooring throughout, kitchen, two bathrooms, and all new trim. RCV managed everything. The result is a completely different house."

Interior Renovation Projects
The Value of One General Contractor
When you hire multiple specialty contractors for a renovation — a flooring company, a separate electrician, a painting company — nobody is accountable for the whole picture. Timelines don't coordinate, trades get in each other's way, and the homeowner ends up managing the chaos.
With RCV Construction as your general contractor, one team manages every trade, one schedule coordinates all the work, and one phone call resolves any issue. After 30 years of managing complex renovations, we know how to keep projects moving efficiently and keep clients informed and unstressed throughout.
"We did a full interior renovation — opened up the floor plan, new flooring throughout, kitchen, two bathrooms, and all new trim. RCV managed everything. The result is a completely different house and we didn't have to juggle a single subcontractor ourselves."
"We bought a dated 1990s home and RCV transformed it completely. New floors, opened the kitchen to the living room, custom built-ins, new trim throughout, and all new lighting. It looks like a completely new home. Couldn't be happier."
Interior Renovation Budgets — What's Possible?
Interior renovations vary widely in scope. Here's a realistic guide to what different budgets can accomplish.
Targeted Refresh
$15,000–$40,000
New flooring throughout, updated lighting, fresh paint, and trim upgrades in key areas. A focused scope that delivers a noticeably improved home without a full gut renovation.
Multi-Room Renovation
$40,000–$100,000
Flooring, lighting, trim work, one or two room reconfigurations, and interior updates across most of the home. The most common scope for buyers who've purchased a dated home and want to make it their own.
Whole-Home Transformation
$100,000+
Full floor plan reconfiguration, premium flooring and millwork throughout, custom built-ins, complete lighting redesign, and every interior detail elevated. The result feels like a brand new home.

Yes. Wall removal and open-concept floor plan conversions are among the most transformative renovation services we provide in Reno, Sparks, and the Lake Tahoe area. RCV Construction manages the full process — structural engineering, permit submission, temporary support during demolition, beam installation, and all finishes including drywall, flooring, paint, and trim. The result looks intentional and original, not added-on.
How much does an interior renovation cost in Reno, NV?
Interior renovation costs in Reno, Nevada depend entirely on scope. A targeted refresh — new flooring, paint, lighting, and trim updates — typically runs $15,000–$40,000. A multi-room renovation covering most of the home with some reconfiguration generally costs $40,000–$100,000. A whole-home transformation with full floor plan changes, custom built-ins, and premium finishes throughout can run $100,000–$250,000+.

Can I live in my home during a full interior renovation?
For smaller or phased renovations, yes — many Reno homeowners remain in their homes throughout the project. For large-scale whole-home renovations involving demolition across multiple rooms, temporary relocation may be necessary for both safety and efficiency. We discuss this honestly during the initial consultation and plan the project scope and sequence around your situation.
Do you handle permits for interior renovation projects in Reno?
Yes. RCV Construction manages all permits for interior renovation projects in Reno, Sparks, Washoe County, Lake Tahoe, and Truckee. Cosmetic work like flooring, painting, and fixture replacement typically doesn't require permits. Structural work, electrical panel upgrades, plumbing changes, and HVAC modifications do. We identify what requires permits during planning and handle every submittal and inspection ourselves.
Do you offer whole-home renovation services in Lake Tahoe and Truckee?
Yes. RCV Construction completes whole-home interior renovations throughout the Reno-Tahoe region including Lake Tahoe, Truckee, Incline Village, Sparks, and Carson City. Our dual California and Nevada contractor licenses allow us to complete interior renovation projects on both sides of the state line. We manage every trade — framing, electrical, plumbing, flooring, cabinetry, tile, finish carpentry, and painting — under one contract and one accountable team.
