Room additions are a great way to add functional living space to your home and increase your property value. Our locally owned and operated remodeling and construction firm in northern Atlanta can give you the space you need.
When we embark on a kitchen remodeling project, we give it a full-time project manager. Since we pride ourselves on our customer service, we ensure the project managers are knowledgeable and qualified, and they will oversee each and every aspect of your kitchen remodeling project.
So what should your kitchen remodeling project include? That is entirely up to you. It can be something simple, such as putting in new fixtures or appliances to give your kitchen a new look and maybe make it more energy efficient, or something far more complicated, such as ripping everything out and starting anew.
One of the things to consider when you discuss your kitchen remodeling project with us is your storage areas – your cabinets and drawers. Do they give you enough room for your storage needs? Do they have the design that you want them to have? Do they maximize the use of your space?
You also need to think about the layout of the room when doing a kitchen remodeling project. Where should the sink go so that kitchen duties are easiest to perform? What kind of sink should you have that will coordinate with your cabinets and countertops, especially if they are being replaced?
Of course, kitchen remodeling is an investment, but did you know it can also help you save money in the long run? If your appliances are older, you can replace them with more energy-efficient models; by doing so, you are not only saving money on your utility bills, you may even be eligible for a tax credit. The same goes for windows: If there are windows in your kitchen, think about replacing them with newer styles that offer better insulation, again saving you money on your energy bill and possibly qualifying you for a tax credit.
Lighting is yet another crucial element of your kitchen remodeling project, one that can enhance the whole atmosphere. Consider overhead lighting, which can give you a well-lit area to work in, or under-cabinet lighting, which can shine upon a specific area.
And let’s not forget about flooring. If you are making changes, will your current floor coordinate with them? Are you looking for something more modern, or perhaps something easier to keep clean? No matter what kind of changes you are making, we can help ensure your flooring keeps the flow of your new kitchen.
Regardless of whether your kitchen remodeling project is a big or small one, we are ready to help you make your vision a reality. We are licensed and insured.

Bathroom remodeling can turn your current bathroom into a haven for you and your family. RL Hayes, Inc. is ready to help you change the look and feel of yours. When you start a bathroom remodeling project, the first thing you need to determine is what it is that you want to change. Will new faucets and fixtures be enough to give it what you’re looking for? Does it need better ventilation? Have you had problems with mold, mildew or rot that you need to have fixed? Or do you maybe just want a new bathroom to luxuriate in? Whatever you decide, we have the experience to take care of your bathroom remodeling project every step of the way. You will always have a project manager on site, overseeing your project and ensuring quality workmanship and service. Some people like to come home at the end of the day and use a hot tub in the bathroom to relax.

No matter what your vision for your bathroom is, we can complete your bathroom remodeling project and give you what you had in mind. Have you always wanted a larger bathroom? That is definitely the kind of bathroom remodeling project you want the experts to take care of, and that is where we come in. As part of an expanded bathroom, for instance, consider a dressing area: it can include a closet, so that if you are using a shower or tub, you can go from bathing to an area nearby to dress. Or perhaps you just want to change the layout. And don’t forget, this type of bathroom remodeling project requires permits to be pulled; we can take care of that, too. If you feel like your bathroom is outdated, then consider a bathroom remodeling project to update the style. If you are going for a more modern look, for example, a pedestal sink can fit the bill; a challenge with this option, though, is there is no storage. No problem: As part of your bathroom remodeling project, we can create other storage options. Because, after all, a bathroom should be a place where you are comfortable, but it also has to be practical and able to fill your needs. With so many fixture, flooring, counter and cabinet options to choose from in a bathroom remodeling project, you want to make sure it all comes together. With our more than two decades of remodeling experience, we can give your new bathroom a seamless look. And knowing that we are licensed and insured should give you even more peace of mind.

Basement remodeling is a great way to increase your living and/or storage space, and also add value to your home. For more than 20 years, we have been turning basements in northern Atlanta into a room our customers can enjoy. The first step in a basement remodeling project is to figure out what you want to use the space for. Basements offer natural advantages for certain types of activities.
Do you have children or teenagers? They often want a place of their own to hang out, but you also want them to be at home. Consider your basement remodeling project as a place they can spend their time and still be close by. Have you always wanted a bar? Your basement can be the perfect place for it. You can make it as simple or extravagant as you want – something where you can keep a few drinks on hand for personal use or a place where you can host a full party. It can contain storage and areas for seating as well.
The lack of lighting in a basement is something you can actually use to your advantage when embarking on a basement remodeling project. We can help you turn the space into a home theater, where the darkness makes it even more realistic. Do you have a photographer in your household? A basement could also make for a perfect dark room. But what if you want more lighting? If parts of your basement go above the ground, we can add windows or make existing ones bigger. Adding windows can also be a safety factor, as they give an alternate escape route in case there is a fire.
Maybe you want to use the space to create an extra bedroom, such as a guest room. There is usually ready access to water lines and heating and cooling ducts, which would make putting in a bathroom easier than it might be elsewhere in your home. This might be the perfect basement remodeling project for you if you don’t want to physically add an addition to your home.
One of the most important facets of basement remodeling is to make sure you keep it dry – protecting it not just from flooding, but also from water vapor. You also want to make sure it is properly insulated, which not only keeps the cold out, but prevents condensation; the ground and walls stay cool year-round, and when warmer air in the room collides with the cool walls, condensation forms. This condensation is the main source of the moisture that will cause mold and mildew in basements. As part of your basement remodeling project, we will install the proper insulation to keep your basement dry.
Another important thing to consider is air circulation. We can add venting where necessary, to make sure there is proper circulation.
When we take on your basement remodeling project, we always put in a project manager who is on site every day to oversee everything and provide you an immediate point of contact. We are licensed and insured, and offer free estimates and consultations. We provide basement remodeling in Atlanta, Cumming, Alpharetta, Dunwoody, Johns Creek, Marietta, Milton, Roswell, Duluth, Lawrenceville and Sandy Springs. Call us at 770-667-1518 to schedule yours.
Open air additions are a great way to set up a space that allows you to enjoy the north Atlanta outdoors at home. From the design phase all the way through construction, we will work with you to make your open air addition an oasis.
When the weather turns cooler and you want to sit outside, a deck may be just the open air addition to your home that you may need. We can build a single or multi-level deck where you can relax and entertain to your heart’s content.
Does your home have a patio? If not, talk to us about putting one in. This type of open air addition can be an inexpensive way to add functional space outside your home, as well as increase its value.

You will still able to enjoy the beautiful weather in our area, but you will not have to worry about being in direct sunlight. You will be able to relax outside, feel the breeze on your skin and not have to worry about getting a sunburn.
If bugs are a concern for you and you like spending time outside, a screened porch may be a great option for your open air addition. Especially during the summer months, when mosquitoes are at their peak, it can be tough to spend time outside without finding bug bites all over you when you go back in. A screened porch will allow you to spend as much time outside as you like without having to be concerned about insects.
Do you want to be able to sit out front and chat with the neighbors? A front porch can become the perfect gathering spot to catch up with what’s going on around the block.
Another open air addition option for people who like to cook is an outdoor kitchen. These are becoming more popular with homeowners, and there are now a wide variety of appliances created especially for these kitchens: refrigerators, rotisseries, chilled wine racks and convection ovens, to name a few. We can create an outdoor kitchen for you with either customized or standard features, depending on your needs.
With more than two decades of experience, we can help you design an open air addition that will work best for your needs and budget. On every open air addition project we do, there is an on-site project manager who is there every day to oversee every step of the way.

In the northern Atlanta area, we can build you a garage addition that will serve your needs no matter what you choose to use it for.
