“Your remodel isn’t really about the remodel. It’s about improving how you live in that space. The renovation is just the entry point to a better way of living at home. “
Paul McManus, Owner
“Backordered”, “Not included”, “I wish we would have…”
If you’ve remodeled before, or know someone who has, you’ve probably heard or said one of these words or phrases. They might feel like a normal part of the process. They are not.
They are what happens when the design and planning process is rushed, or when design and construction are handled by different companies, with nobody owning the whole process.
Our Approach is Different
We are licensed remodeling contractors with an in-house design team and showroom. That means we take care of the entire remodeling process from initial sketch to final walkthrough.
One team, one contract, one comprehensive warranty for your whole project.
We plan every detail before construction begins
Three to five design meetings in our showroom with certified designers to finalzie you design and make all you material selections.
We order everything in advance
Everything comes to our warehouse for inspection, then gets labelled and stored until needed on site.
Daily Project Management
During construction your project manager is on site every day. Your designer and project manager collaborate from day 1 so they both know the project inside and out.
3 Ways to Work With Us
Not every project needs a full design-build team. But every project can benefit from professional planning and design. Here are 3 ways we can help:
We Design, We Build
Our full-service option and the one most people choose. Work with our design team to plan your project. We order all your materials and we run the project from start to finish.
We Design, You Build
If you already have a contractor you want to work. Same design and planning process as our full service approach – detailed scope, schedule, permit ready plans and all your materials ordered. Your contractor handles construction.
Guided Material Selections
Work with our designer team or bring your own designer. Make all your selections in one place – cabinets, countertops, tile, plumbing, lighting etc… We’ll order everything for you and can even deliver it.
If you’re struggling with an outdated kitchen or bath and unsure of the best way to handle the project start with a discovery call. We’ll answer your questions and help you decide the next step.
How To Get Started
1. Free 15 Minute Discovery call. Tell us about your project. We’ll talk through your options, give you ballpark costs and figure out next steps.
2. In-person Design and Budget Consult. If are are good fit we’ll schedule a home visit followed by two hours of one on one time with a designer in our showroom. This is paid consut and includes 3D concept drawings and a ‘good-better-best’ estimate for your remodel.
If we are not a good fit we can at least provide advice and point you in the right direction.

When to Choose Us
We specialize in complete renovations: kitchens, baths, whole-home remodels and additions for homeowners investing in their home for the long term.
Most of our full design+build projects fall between $85,000 and $250,000. Our minimum design+build project size is $35,000.
If you want a professional design, a fixed price contract and one team to manage every part of the process, we’re a great fit.
When Not To
We are not the best choice for low budget remodels, investment properties or small home repairs.
We are also not a fit if you are in a hurry and want to make design decisions during the construction process or provide all the materials yourself.
If that’s what you need, we’re happy to point you to someone better suited to it.
When I do a 6 month follow up visit with our clients, the word I like to hear most isn’t “beautiful”… it’s “easy.”
Their daily routines are easier, clutter is gone, and the space works the way it should.

A Home That Still Fits You In 10 Years
There is a quiet moment that comes 6 months after your remodel is complete. After the newness of the remodel wears off you’ll realize how everything just works. Everything is in the right place and the space feels natural to use.
No second guessing, no ‘I wish I would have’. It just feels perfect. Designing for that moment is the whole point and it’s why we do what we do.
Paul McManus, Owner

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does It Take To Get An Estimate?
About a week, depending on your schedule. We start with a home visit to get detailed measurements and discuss options.
Then we schedule a meeting in our showroom about a week later to review 3D concept drawings and your ‘good-better-best’ budget.
When Can the Project Start?
The design process can start as soon as you approve your estimate.
It takes 4-6 weeks to finalize all the project details and create your fixed price proposal.
We are typically scheduling new projects 4 – 6 months out.
Do all remodeling contractors provide design services?
No. In fact most provide no design assistance at all. Others outsource design or limit it to basic layouts.
McManus Kitchen and Bath includes professional design as part of the remodeling process.
What types of projects are the best fit for McManus Kitchen and Bath?
Upscale kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, and whole-home renovations where layout, function, and long-term livability matter.
What projects are not a good fit?
Small repair projects, price-driven remodels, or projects where decisions will be made during construction.
Why is pre-construction planning important in a remodel?
Pre-construction planning reduces delays, surprise costs, change orders, and decision fatigue once construction begins.
