We reimagine your entire home from foundation to roofline — reworking flow, light, structure, and program under one continuous design-build team.

A whole-home remodel touches every trade, every wall, and every decision. We keep design, engineering, and construction under one accountable roof — so nothing gets lost between contractors.
Architects, designers, and construction leadership work under one roof. No coordinating between separate firms mid-project.
Every finish and fixture is selected before construction begins. The number we quote is the number you pay.
Photorealistic 3D renderings of every room let you make confident decisions long before demolition begins.
The designer who develops the plan stays with the project through completion. No handoffs, no lost context.

Zelee Home holds contractor licenses in Virginia (Class A), Maryland, and Washington, D.C. We’re fully bonded and insured with comprehensive coverage. As active members of the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA), we stay current with industry standards and best practices.
Our work speaks for itself: multiple Best of Houzz awards for Design and Service, plus an A+ BBB rating. Every project includes a 5-year warranty on structural work and 1-year warranty on all other aspects.
Investment varies significantly based on scope, size, materials, and complexity. During your free consultation, we discuss your vision and budget openly to develop a realistic plan. Our design-build model provides better cost control than the traditional approach because designers and builders collaborate from day one. You receive a fixed-rate contract after the design phase. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Timelines depend on the number of spaces being renovated and the extent of work. The design phase typically takes 1-2 months, followed by permitting and scheduling. Construction duration varies with project scope. Some families remain in their homes during renovation with work completed in phases, while others relocate temporarily for faster completion. We provide specific timelines during your consultation.
Many clients do. We implement protection measures for unaffected areas, maintain daily cleanup, and can phase work to keep portions of your home livable. For whole house projects, we discuss strategies like completing essential spaces first (bathrooms, kitchen) before moving to secondary areas. Your comfort and safety remain priorities throughout.
Typically: multiple rooms renovated simultaneously or in phases, updated systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) as needed, structural modifications if desired, and new flooring, lighting, and finishes throughout affected areas. Kitchen and bathroom renovations are often central components. Many projects also incorporate basement finishing or room additions. Every project includes comprehensive design services, permits, project management, and warranty coverage.
You work with one integrated team rather than coordinating separate designers and contractors. This eliminates finger-pointing when issues arise, reduces miscommunication, and speeds up timelines. Design-build projects complete significantly faster because we can begin construction planning during design. You have a single point of accountability from start to finish.
Yes. We obtain and manage all necessary permits for your project, including building, electrical, plumbing, and any others required by your jurisdiction. You don’t need to coordinate with building departments or schedule inspections. That’s entirely our responsibility throughout the project.
Many of our best projects start with clients who haven’t locked into a specific vision. We help you discover what you want through conversation, exploring inspiration images, and visiting our showrooms. About half our clients come uncertain, and we’re experienced at guiding them through that process.
Yes. This is one of the most important aspects of our boutique service model. The designer who meets with you initially and creates your vision stays involved through project completion. You won’t be handed off to different people as your project progresses. That continuity ensures your design intent is maintained.
Most work falls within 5–10 miles of our Bethesda studio; we travel up to 30 miles for appropriate projects.
