Construction & Completion
A dedicated project lead manages demolition, construction, and installation so you always know who to contact. We keep you updated on progress, address conditions transparently, and protect the rest of your home.
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.
