The room where the whole family gathers

A living room remodel can be one focused upgrade or a full rebuild. We have done every variation for Portland families.

CM&D rebuilds living rooms from the studs out or adds targeted upgrades like custom built-ins, fireplace surrounds, new flooring, and feature walls. A new fireplace surround alone can change how an entire room feels without touching the rest of the house.

Because living room projects often overlap with adjacent spaces, we plan carefully to minimize disruption and give you a realistic schedule before demo begins.

Scope Options

Three levels of living room remodel

Not every living room needs a full rebuild. Here is how CM&D homeowners typically scope these projects.
01
Focused

Fireplace & surround

Tile, stone, brick, or plaster surround and hearth rebuild. 2-3 weeks of work, dramatic impact on the room.

02
Moderate

Built-ins & flooring

Custom cabinetry, shelving, hardwood or engineered floors, accent lighting. 3-5 weeks typical.

03
Full build

Walls-out rebuild

Framing changes, ceiling work, electrical, feature walls, complete refinish. 5-8 weeks, permitted.

04
Add-on

Smart-home wiring

Built-in speakers, hidden wiring, A/V niches, dimmers, and smart controls added to any scope.
