Quality Remodeling Services in Kirkland
Kirkland homes run from waterfront properties near Marina Park Al Locke Pavilion to established streets that stretch back toward Juanita Beach Park. Most of what we need to know, we learn in the first forty minutes, standing in the house. That holds from Moss Bay and Market up through Juanita and Finn Hill, though what the walk turns up changes by neighborhood. The closer to the water, the more likely the house was built around a view it no longer quite catches.
The kitchen tells you first. Where the light lands in the afternoon, whether two people can pass behind the island, whether the room is closed off from wherever the family actually ends up. That read is what turns into a kitchen remodel. Upstairs the question is simpler, which is whether the main bathroom ever got its turn, and in a Kirkland house of a certain age it usually did not. That is a bathroom remodel.
Then we walk the rest of it. A basement doing duty as storage is the cheapest square footage in the building, which is the entire case for a basement remodel. And on the lots closer to the water, the back of the house is often the best room nobody uses, so an outdoor living space earns its keep faster in Kirkland than almost anywhere else we work.
By the end of that walk you have a scope. Shortly after, you have photorealistic 3D renderings of it. Home Run Design + Remodel runs design and construction on one team out of Mill Creek, a short drive north, so the person who did the walk is the person who owns the result. Kirkland has been part of our working area for years, and the Lake Washington School District is a big reason families here choose to rework rather than list. Partner with a team that makes remodeling effortless.
Our Kirkland Remodeling Services
Kitchen Remodeling
Most homeowners remodel their kitchen because it’s outdated, there’s never enough storage, or the kitchen is closed off from the rest of the house. We’ve spent a lot of time remodeling kitchens that address all of these concerns, and more.
Bathroom Remodeling
Most homeowners decide to remodel their bathroom because it’s outdated, cramped, doesn’t match their lifestyle, or no longer feels safe to use. We’ve helped families throughout Mill Creek reimagine their bathrooms with designs that bring comfort, beauty, and modern functionality back into their homes.
Basement Remodeling
Most homeowners remodel their basements because it’s underused, unfinished, or simply not meeting their family’s needs. Maybe there’s no comfortable space for guests, no room to entertain, or nowhere for kids and teens to hang out. We’ve transformed countless basements into beautiful, functional living spaces designed around real life, and yours could be next.
Whole House Remodeling
Most homeowners choose to remodel their entire home when updates in one area just aren’t enough. Outdated design, poor functionality, or aging systems can make your home feel disconnected and hard to live in. We’ve helped families throughout Mill Creek reimagine their spaces with cohesive layouts, modern efficiency, and design continuity that ties every room together.
Home Additions
Most homeowners consider an addition when their home no longer suits their lifestyle. Whether you need a detached guest space, more room to move, or upgraded amenities that make life easier, an intentionally designed addition can transform your home and the way you live. We’ve helped families throughout Mill Creek expand their homes with seamless designs that look original and feel like they’ve always belonged.
Outdoor Living Spaces
Not enough room to host, spaces you can’t enjoy most of the year, and high-maintenance yards top the list of reasons homeowners upgrade their outdoor areas. We design and build outdoor living spaces that look beautiful, are low-maintenance, and feel connected to your home.

Our History in Kirkland
Ask Katie and Jacob Thompson how long Home Run Design + Remodel has been working in Kirkland, and they will tell you it goes back almost to the beginning. The husband-and-wife team started the company in 2006 around a simple belief: a homeowner should never have to manage designers and builders who are not talking to each other.
Kirkland was part of that early service map, long before the current showroom in Mill Creek existed. If you talk to Katie and Jacob about the neighborhoods along Lake Washington, they will tell you how many Kirkland homes were built decades ago around a layout that no longer fits how a family actually lives, a closed-off kitchen here, a bathroom tucked out of the way there.
What you get today is the approach the company was built on. Every Kirkland project still starts with a real conversation about how your family lives, walks you through material choices and 3D renderings before anything gets torn out, and wraps with careful craftsmanship and a job site kept clean the whole way through. Ask Katie and Jacob what has changed since 2006, and they will tell you surprisingly little.
The design library and showroom Katie and Jacob built up in Mill Creek sit just across the water from Kirkland, close enough that people here still stop in to touch real material samples before deciding on anything final. Ask around Kirkland long enough and you will hear it more than once: homeowners who say they missed having the crew around once the work was done.

What Homeowners Say About Our Kirkland Work
Frequently Asked Questions - Kirkland Remodeling
Why choose a Mill Creek based remodeler for a project in Kirkland?
Our showroom and design studio sit in Mill Creek, a short drive from Kirkland’s Eastside neighborhoods, so our team already knows the mix of lakefront homes and established streets you find in this area. Being close by means faster site visits, a crew that is genuinely familiar with the neighborhood, and a design-build process that stays organized from the first sketch through the final walkthrough.
What does Home Run Design + Remodel do for homeowners in Kirkland?
We handle full design-build remodeling, from kitchen and bathroom remodels to whole-house remodels, home additions, basement remodels, and outdoor living spaces. One team designs and builds your project from the first conversation through the final walkthrough, so nothing gets lost between the drawing and the construction crew, and you always know who to call with a question.
What kinds of homes do you typically remodel in this part of the Eastside?
Many of the homes we work on here were built with an older layout in mind: closed-off kitchens, small or awkward bathrooms, and not enough storage for how a family lives today. We design around the way you actually use your home rather than forcing a generic floor plan onto an established house near the water.
Do you handle both design and construction for a remodel in this area?
Yes. Home Run Design + Remodel designs and builds every project under one roof, so your remodel has a single team accountable for the plan and the construction. You will see photorealistic 3D renderings of your new space before a wall comes down, and the same team that designed it will be the one building it.
Can Home Run help with outdoor living spaces for homes near the water here?
Yes. So many homes in this area back up to Lake Washington or sit close enough to enjoy it, and we design decks, patios, and outdoor living spaces that make the most of that setting. We handle the outdoor space with the same design-first approach we bring to a kitchen or whole-house remodel, so it feels like part of the home rather than an afterthought.
