Full kitchen renovations, bathroom remodels, and custom cabinetry — across Princeton, Bluefield, Athens, Bramwell, and the rest of Mercer County.
A good Mercer County kitchen or bath remodel is part design, part logistics, and part respect for the house already standing. The neighborhoods we work in were mostly built between 1920 and 1980 — coal-era cottages in Bramwell, mid-century ranches around Princeton and Bluefield, postwar split-levels out toward Athens. They were not built with today's plumbing, today's electrical loads, or today's appliance footprints in mind. GM Harvey Construction has been opening up walls in these houses long enough to know exactly what we'll find behind the drywall before we cut.
Anybody can install a vanity. The hard part of a Mercer County remodel is what shows up when you start: galvanized supply lines from the 1950s, knob-and-tube splices left over in a "rewired" 1960s home, sub-floors that have absorbed forty years of slow leaks, and joist layouts no permit office ever saw. We've worked on enough of these houses to size up the surprises in the first walk-through — and to give you a written estimate that already accounts for them, instead of a low-ball number that ballons into "change orders" once demo starts.
Being based in Princeton also means our supply chain runs through Princeton Home Supply — our local dealer relationships with Nest Cabinetry and Schrock Cabinetry mean designer-grade boxes at trade pricing, with cabinet runs in weeks instead of the months a big-box order takes when something has to come back through Charleston.
Mercer County sits at the wet edge of the Appalachian humidity zone — Princeton and Bluefield both run 70%+ relative humidity from May through September. That's why we ventilate bathrooms the right way (ducted to the exterior, never just into the attic), use cement backer board behind every tile install, and waterproof shower pans with a real membrane system. The Pinterest renovations that don't get this right are the ones that grow mold behind the tile within five years.
We also detail every job with a moisture-management mindset: continuous bath fans on humidistats, vapor barriers spec'd to the climate zone, and exhaust runs kept short and straight. These details cost almost nothing during a remodel and save thousands in remediation later.
Princeton (Glenwood, Stafford, Mercer Mall corridor, downtown), Bluefield (College Avenue, Stadium Drive, Bluewell), Athens (campus-area homes near Concord), Bramwell (historic district), Matoaka, Oakvale, Lashmeet, Montcalm, and the rural lots in between. If it's in Mercer County or just across the line in Tazewell or Summers, we'll come out and walk it.
Call (304) 557-1234 or request a free estimate. Gary or our lead carpenter walks the space with you, takes measurements, talks through what you want versus what the house will allow, and writes a clear, itemized estimate in plain English. From there, design selections happen at our Princeton Home Supply showroom, demo and rough-in run on a posted schedule, and we don't leave until the punch list is closed.
Custom cabinetry, real waterproofing, and a contractor who answers the phone.
