Remodeling Contractor in Shaw, District of Columbia
Shaw mixes Victorian rowhouses and historic alley dwellings in Blagden Alley with major new development along 9th Street near the Howard Theatre. Historic homes get rear kitchen expansions and full renovations, while newer condos get bath, flooring and finish upgrades.
Design-build remodeling in Shaw
There is a practical streak to Shaw projects: homeowners here ask about permits, timelines and resale in the first ten minutes. Fair enough — those are exactly the questions a design-build firm answers before a contract is signed, in writing.
We serve homeowners across the 9th Street NW and Blagden Alley corridors, the blocks around the Howard Theatre and U Street edge, City Market at O, and the rowhome streets near Bundy Field. Every project is run by our own in-house crew under one license — design, permits, build and warranty from a single signature.
Geography shapes the work here. Around City Market at O, the questions are about fitting new space and new systems into homes that were built for a different era, while near the 9th Street NW the projects skew toward kitchen remodeling and bathroom remodeling. We plan for both — and for the permit office that reviews them.
Permit reality shapes schedules here, too. Work around the rowhome streets near Bundy Field goes through the same District of Columbia review as everywhere in the county, but the houses themselves vary street by street — which is why kitchen remodeling in one part of Shaw can be a six-week job and a ten-week job three streets over. We price the house, not the average.
What we handle most in Shaw
Kitchens lead the list in Shaw — opening closed-off cooking space to the family room, replacing builder cabinets, and finding room for the island the original plan never had.
In Shaw 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 Shaw 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 Shaw — we turn them into rec rooms, guest suites, home offices and gyms, starting with moisture testing so the finish lasts.

Remodeling in Shaw — FAQ
How much does a remodel cost in Shaw, DC?
Our published Maryland ranges are the planning guide we quote from in Shaw too: bathroom remodels run about $22,000–$48,000 and kitchens $38,000–$115,000, with additions and whole-home projects quoted by scope. Your exact number comes from a free in-home estimate — we measure, talk through materials, and leave a fixed-price written quote within 48 hours. Around the 9th Street NW, the first project we quote most often is kitchen remodeling — bring us the room and we will price it exactly.
Do I need a permit for a remodel in Shaw?
Most kitchen, bathroom, structural, plumbing and electrical work in Shaw requires a permit through the District's Department of Buildings (DOB). We prepare and file the permit package for every project we build, and schedule all inspections.
Do you help with design and material choices in Shaw?
Yes — that is the design-build part. We develop the layout, guide cabinet, tile, counter and fixture selections, and price the actual materials you chose, so the fixed quote reflects your kitchen or bath, not an allowance guess.
Can a big Shaw project be phased over time?
Yes, and most large projects are. We design the full scope up front — systems, layout, materials palette — then build in fixed-price phases, so phase one never has to be undone for phase three.

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. "”
