Remodeling Contractor in Capitol Hill, District of Columbia
Capitol Hill is the city's largest historic district, a dense grid of Federal and Victorian rowhouses, many with English basements and narrow lots behind brick facades. Remodeling here is precise work — rebuilt kitchens, marble-era baths reimagined, whole-home renovations and basement dig-outs handled within historic rules.
Design-build remodeling in Capitol Hill
Look at Capitol Hill closely and the remodel logic writes itself. The bones are worth keeping; the kitchens, baths and floor plans belong to another era of family life. Our work is the bridge between the two.
We serve homeowners across the blocks around Eastern Market and Barracks Row on 8th Street SE, Lincoln Park, Stanton Park, and the rowhome streets between East Capitol Street and Pennsylvania Avenue SE. Every project is run by our own in-house crew under one license — design, permits, build and warranty from a single signature.
What we quote in Capitol Hill depends on where in Capitol Hill you stand. The homes around the rowhome streets between East Capitol Street ask different things of a remodel than the ones near the blocks around Eastern Market — different ages, different bones, different budgets. That is why the estimate starts at your kitchen table, with your rooms measured and your ZIP (20003) permit path already mapped.
Around Pennsylvania Avenue SE, the requests lean practical: fix the layout, add the storage, make the mornings work. Near Barracks Row on 8th Street SE, owners ask bigger questions — basement finishing and full rethinks of how the main level flows. Both kinds of project get the same treatment: measured, designed, permitted and built by one team.
What we handle most in Capitol Hill
Kitchens lead the list in Capitol Hill — opening closed-off cooking space to the family room, replacing builder cabinets, and finding room for the island the original plan never had.
In Capitol Hill the bathroom brief is consistent: a shower that feels like a spa, storage that ends counter clutter, and tile work over waterproofing that will outlast the fixtures.
Some Capitol Hill homes need everything at once, phased floor by floor: systems first, then kitchens and baths, then finishes. One design, one contract, one crew throughout.
Basements are the cheapest square footage in Capitol Hill — we turn them into rec rooms, guest suites, home offices and gyms, starting with moisture testing so the finish lasts.

Homeowner Reviews
What homeowners say about us
★★★★★
“" Eagle did our primary bath top to bottom. Daily updates, foreman on site every morning, and the finished space looks better than the renderings. Fixed price held — no surprise upcharges. Would absolutely hire again. "”
★★★★★
“" Whole-home renovation in our Eastport house. The historic district approval alone made me consider walking away from the project, but they handled HPC, the County, and HOA without me having to lift a finger. "”
★★★★★
“" Kitchen + bath combo. The crew was respectful of the rest of the house — ZipWall everywhere, RamBoard on the floors, no dust in the rest of the home. We have two kids and stayed in the house the whole time. "”
