Remodeling Contractor in Shepherd Park, District of Columbia

Design-build remodeling in Shepherd Park

What makes Shepherd Park different from the next town over is the housing stock itself. The projects that pencil out here start from what these homes already do well — and fix what they don't: storage, light, and rooms sized for how families live now, not when the house was drawn.

Our service area here covers the streets around 16th Street NW and Eastern Avenue, the blocks near Shepherd Elementary, the Alaska Avenue corridor, and the homes backing onto Rock Creek Park. One in-house crew, one license, one fixed price: design, permits, construction and warranty never change hands.

What we quote in Shepherd Park depends on where in Shepherd Park you stand. The homes around Eastern Avenue ask different things of a remodel than the ones near the Alaska Avenue corridor — different ages, different bones, different budgets. That is why the estimate starts at your kitchen table, with your rooms measured and your ZIP (20012) permit path already mapped.

Permit reality shapes schedules here, too. Work around the blocks near Shepherd Elementary 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 Shepherd Park can be a six-week job and a ten-week job three streets over. We price the house, not the average.

The work Shepherd Park calls us for most

Ask Shepherd Park homeowners what they would change first and most point at the kitchen: too little counter, cabinets from another decade, and a layout that isolates the cook. That is exactly the work we do most here.

The typical Shepherd Park bath project trades a tub-shower combo and a single vanity for a walk-in shower, double sinks and storage that was designed, not squeezed in.

Basements are the cheapest square footage in Shepherd Park — we turn them into rec rooms, guest suites, home offices and gyms, starting with moisture testing so the finish lasts.

The addition conversation in Shepherd Park starts with the lot — setbacks, coverage, where the sun lands — and ends with space that looks like it was always part of the house, because it was designed that way.

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. "”

Daniel R. · Bethesda, MD

★★★★★

“" 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. "”

Dave M. · Annapolis, MD

★★★★★

“" 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. "”
