FAQ
Common Questions
Can I renovate a home in Connerton or Bexley even though they are newer communities?
Absolutely. Even homes built 10 to 15 years ago benefit from kitchen updates, bathroom refreshes, and flooring replacement. Both communities have HOA architectural review for exterior changes, but interior renovations are unrestricted. Drome Contracting works within community guidelines while delivering the updated living space you want.
Do lake-adjacent properties in Land O' Lakes have renovation restrictions?
Properties near the scattered lakes throughout Land O' Lakes often have environmental buffer setbacks that limit how far you can extend toward the water. Interior renovations are unaffected. For additions, Drome Contracting reviews setback requirements during planning and designs within those boundaries.
Can I stay in my home during a renovation in Land O' Lakes?
It depends on the scope. Cosmetic renovations usually allow you to stay. Full structural renovations may require temporary relocation for safety and efficiency.
How long does a full home renovation take?
Cosmetic renovations take 4-8 weeks. Structural renovations with layout changes take 3-6 months depending on scope and Pasco County permitting timelines.
Do you handle permits for renovations in Pasco County?
All of them. We pull every permit, schedule every inspection, and manage every code requirement through Pasco County.
What happens if my renovation uncovers termite damage in Land O' Lakes?
Termite damage is extremely common in Florida homes, especially in older construction. When we open walls during a renovation and find termite damage, we document the extent, replace all compromised framing and sheathing, and treat the affected areas before closing the walls back up. We handle all permits through Pasco County for the additional structural work.
