Do you provide free estimates?
Please contact our team to discuss your project and confirm the estimate process. The requirements may vary depending on the size, complexity, and stage of planning.
How long does a remodeling project take?
Project timelines depend on the scope of work, existing conditions, material availability, permitting requirements, and other construction factors. We discuss the anticipated schedule as part of project planning.
Can I make changes to the project after construction begins?
Changes may be possible depending on the stage of construction and the work involved. Any requested changes should be reviewed for their potential impact on project cost, materials, and schedule before proceeding.

Permit requirements depend on the type of work and the property's location. Structural modifications, additions, and certain electrical, plumbing, or mechanical improvements commonly require permits. We discuss applicable requirements during project planning.
Can I stay in my home during the renovation?

Can Vale Construction work with my existing plans or drawings?
We can review available plans and drawings to help determine the proposed scope of work and identify any additional information needed for estimating and construction.

What Our Customers Say
- ★★★★★
I have used Vale Construction for many big home projects and they are the best in the business. Doing contemporary, modern work takes a certain skill and Vale Construction is that company. Always on time, reliable and very good at what they do!
- ★★★★★
Vale construction helped build our new bathroom addition. Their team was so kind and addressed all of our concerns. We highly recommend them as they were hard workers, fair priced, and helped us achieve our goal.
- ★★★★★
Vale Construction did an outstanding job preparing our Virginia home for listing. I invested over $30,000 in a wide range of projects—full interior painting, refinishing the main‑level hardwood floors, repairing and stretching carpet upstairs, replacing doors, fixing drywall issues, touching up flooring and shower tile on the lower level, removing a doggie door and restoring both the interior wall and exterior siding, installing a dishwasher, repairing tile flooring, and updating bathroom faucet fixtures. Every part of the project was completed with excellent workmanship and zero issues. Their communication was consistent from start to finish, and they delivered everything within the expected timeline. It’s rare to find a company that can handle such a large scope of work this smoothly and professionally. Highly recommend Vale Construction for anyone needing reliable, high‑quality home renovation or prep‑for‑sale work.
- ★★★★★
I would highly recommend Vale Construction. Alfredo and his team are fantastic. They are honest, make sure things are done right, and are extremely helpful. We have used his team on two houses since he was recommended by a friend. We trust them so much they have done work in our home when we were at work. He, his wife, and his team are all very nice and respectful people.
- ★★★★★
I have been working with Vale for close to 20 years. They are my go-to contractor for all my home improvement needs. From as big as bathroom remodeling to as small as unclog main drain line. The customer service is great, the pricing is transparent, and the owner is honest. No doubt in my mind I will continue to work with them, highly recommended!
