Primary Suite Remodeling in Davis and Sacramento

 

A primary suite should be more than a collection of nice finishes. The bedroom, bathroom, the closet, and storage, light, and privacy concerns all need to work together in a way that supports your specific needs and daily life.

MAK Design + Build remodels primary suites in Davis, Sacramento, Woodland, Winters, and nearby communities. Our work begins with understanding how the space functions and where it it may be failing, or feeling crowded or outdated.  We then work with our clients to find solutions that result in spaces that feel and function exactly the way they should, and of course, look great too.

Frequently Asked Questions About Primary Suite Remodeling

How much does a primary suite remodel cost in Davis or Sacramento?

The cost depends on the size of the suite, the condition of the existing home, and whether the project involves moving walls, plumbing, windows, or closets. A primary suite remodel can range widely, especially when the bedroom, bathroom, and storage areas are being redesigned together. MAK talks through budget early so the design work can stay connected to the investment you want to make.

 

What can be included in a primary suite remodel?

A primary suite remodel may include changes to the bedroom layout, bathroom, closet, storage, lighting, flooring, windows, doors, privacy, or the connection between these spaces. Some projects stay within the existing footprint. Others involve reworking nearby rooms to create a suite that functions more naturally.

Do I need to remodel my bedroom and bathroom at the same time?

Not necessarily. At MAK, we begin by looking at how the entire primary suite works for you: how you move through the space, where storage falls short, how much privacy you want, and where better light could make the rooms feel more comfortable.

 

Sometimes the right solution is a focused bathroom remodel. In other homes, adjusting the bedroom, closets, or circulation creates a more cohesive and useful suite. Rather than assuming every project needs the same scope, we listen carefully and design around the way you live.

 

How long does a primary suite remodel take?

A primary suite remodel typically requires about 14 to 18 weeks of design, followed by another 14 to 18 weeks of construction. Projects that remain within the home’s existing footprint are often closer to the shorter end of that range. Creating new square footage or making significant structural changes generally takes longer.

 

At MAK, design isn’t just a quick step before construction. We give it comparable time and attention so the layout, materials, budget, and buildability can be thoughtfully resolved before work begins.



Does MAK handle both design and construction?

Yes. In fact, every MAK project includes both. We are an integrated design-build firm, so the same team guides your primary suite remodel from the first design conversations through construction and completion.

 

Our designers and builders communicate throughout the process, allowing creative ideas to be evaluated alongside feasibility, budget, and the realities of construction. That continuity protects the design intent and gives you one coordinated team throughout the remodel. We don’t offer design-only or construction-only services because the complete process is central to the quality, clarity, and care of the MAK experience.

Can MAK Design build from plans created by another architect or designer?

MAK doesn’t take on construction-only projects based on plan sets created by another architect or designer. We’re glad to learn from concepts, sketches, or previous work you have already explored, but our strength lies in guiding a project through one integrated process from beginning to end.

 

Starting the design process with MAK allows our designers and builders to collaborate early, resolve aesthetic and practical questions together, and carry every detail through construction. This complete approach is how we ensure the finished space reflects your needs while meeting the level of coordination, craftsmanship, and care our systems are designed to provide.

“The way of MAK is quality, transparency, and efficiency. With MAK, they helped achieve our vision of updating our almost 100 year old home to exude a more modern presence while still maintaining some of its old, good bones. It was our first time ever doing this type of thing and every step of the way we felt confident and comfortable that MAK was doing right on our behalf. The culture that Ken, and likely others, have crafted at MAK is truly amazing and refreshing in this day-in-age. Every employee is gracious, courteous and smiling. From our perspective as the client, the bankroll, it is easy to state that we were treated as first-class citizens . But even more marvelous to see was how positively MAK interacted with the community, neighbors, and sub-contractors. The MAK culture is firmly present from within but emanates to those around which, for us, produces a better product.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed working with the MAK team on our garage conversion in Davis. Every single team member showed a commitment to quality and transparency, and they were all very respectful and pleasant. We never had to worry about the overall quality of the work because our project manager was on site every day to make sure every aspect of the build was taken care of. We also enjoyed working with the design team and appreciated their guidance. We ended up with an airy and modern looking multi-use room and beautiful bathroom that fits our personal style! The team even helped us problem solve a unique storage solution that made up for the loss of our garage. We plan to use this team again for our upcoming kitchen and second bath remodel.”

Garage Conversion, Central Davis

“We have been entirely enjoying our renovated kitchen, flooring, and other areas of the house that MAK Design + Build helped us conceptualize and enact. Working with their design team was easy and inspiring, and their construction workers were unfailingly helpful and accommodating. Equally importantly, MAK stands behind their work, making corrections when needed. We have enjoyed recommending MAK to others who similarly seek a renewal of their place to live.”

MAK is the best! Our renovation project involved a complete gutting & re-do of the foyer, kitchen, dining room, family room and laundry/mudroom (over 1,000 sf). This was the largest remodel we had ever done. On past projects we had encountered the ‘usual’ contractor problems and cost overruns. We were nervous about having the same issues on a much larger project. We really needed a company that could handle the day-to-day issues without us.
Everyone involved on the project, from Ken the owner, to all the subcontractors were very friendly and easy to work with. Our project was completed on time, on budget and we loved the outcome! We will continue using MAK for a smaller Phase II project involving French doors. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone, with no hesitation — great people, excellent work ethic, high integrity with outstanding results.
