Proven Results for Pittsburgh Homeowners
We hired Frontline for our home remodel, including the entire first floor and master bathroom. We had an excellent experience from start to finish. Their craftsmanship was outstanding, especially the tile work, which was incredibly precise and beautifully done. The team was professional, respectful of our home, and always cleaned up after themselves. Communication was clear, and the project was completed to a very high standard. We would absolutely recommend Frontline to anyone looking for quality work and reliable service.

Levi and the Frontline team did multiple large projects on our house including our kitchen, mudroom, a bedroom, and four bathrooms. Their work is very good. Levi is very detail oriented and holds himself to a very high standard of workmanship. They were also very fair and accommodating across many change orders. I highly recommend Frontline construction.

Frontline Construction was incredible to work with. This was my first major home renovation, and Levi and Vaughn made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. They were professional, detail-oriented, and thoughtful with pricing. The team was always clean, tidy, and respectful of my home. Levi double-checked every detail and made sure everything was done exactly to my liking. They communicated clearly and always had a solution if something came up. They handled a full kitchen renovation and added a mudroom, and the results are beyond what I imagined. I’m absolutely impressed and so happy with how everything turned out. I feel really grateful to have worked with such a trustworthy and talented team. I can’t wait to work with them again in the future.

Levi and his team renovated my kitchen about a year ago and it was a great experience. He is so detail oriented and really cares about his work. When I got quotes from other companies, it was very unclear where all the costs came from, but Levi had everything fully itemized and any change we discussed during the project went into his project management software so I could confirm the cost and sign off on it. Levi also worked closely with my designer (shout out to Katy Popple!) to make sure every detail was perfect, including spending a lot of time determining the best layout for my multicolored brick floor and doing multiple grout color samples until we got the perfect match. If I wasn’t fully satisfied about anything, Levi and his team would immediately make it right, including coming in on the weekend after they completed to do an additional coat of sealant on my floor. They also stayed on budget and only got a little off schedule (but that was due to the counter installers). Hiring Frontline was one of the best decisions I made with my kitchen reno and I will definitely be hiring them again for future projects!

Frontline were such amazing contractors!! They did a HUGE project at our house, they renovated our entire first floor including kitchen, living room and dining room. They worked with our designers who they had never worked with before and they did a great job. Levy is so honest (which seems rare in the field). The cost of the project was very close to the initial quote which also seems extremely rare. Levy went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He even came over on weekends to get some smaller stuff done. His subcontractors were also wonderful and efficient. We love our the final product so much and spend so much time in our amazing kitchen. We will be using them for future projects in the house. 100% recommend!!!

Common Questions
Design-Build Services FAQs
Got more questions? Send us your enquiry below
How far in advance should we reach out before starting a renovation?
We recommend contacting us 3–6 months before your ideal start date. This allows time for discovery, design, selections, and permitting—especially in Pittsburgh’s established neighborhoods where planning is key to a smooth renovation.
What types of projects are the best fit for Frontline’s design–build services?
We specialize in luxury kitchen, bathroom, and basement renovations, as well as custom homes, for discerning homeowners in Pittsburgh. Our process is best suited for clients who value quality, design, and a cohesive team from start to finish.
Do you work in occupied homes, or do we need to move out during construction?
Most projects can be completed while you remain in your home, though we work carefully to minimize disruption. For major renovations, we’ll discuss what to expect and help you plan accordingly.
How do you approach budgets and pricing for older Pittsburgh homes?
We provide detailed, transparent proposals with allowances for unknowns. Our experience with older homes means we anticipate common challenges and communicate options clearly if surprises arise.
What neighborhoods do you serve?
We work throughout Pittsburgh’s most established neighborhoods, including Fox Chapel, Squirrel Hill, Point Breeze, Mt. Lebanon, Shadyside, Regent Square, Sewickley, and more. If you’re in greater Pittsburgh and value our approach, we’re happy to discuss your project.
How long do most kitchen, bath, or basement projects take?
While every project is unique, most kitchen and bath renovations take 8–14 weeks after construction begins. Basement finishing projects may vary based on complexity. We provide clear schedules—and stick to them.
