Morristown rewards people who buy old houses. It also makes them earn the renovation. A Federal or Victorian near the Green is not a 1994 East Hanover colonial with a different paint color. The streetscape is part of the asset. Exterior changes can require a Certificate of Appropriateness before a building permit is issued. Interiors are usually freer — until a kitchen vent, a new window, or a roof deck changes what the block sees. Burrini’s and Sons remodels homes across Mor

East Hanover bathrooms are having a moment for a simple reason: a lot of them were built between the 1960s and the 1990s. Oak vanities, a 5-foot tub-shower, a linen closet that holds three towels, and a primary bath that never caught up with the rest of a renovated colonial. The 2026 trends that matter here are not cruise-ship spas. They are warmer materials, bigger showers, less grout to scrub, and layouts that work for school mornings on Ridgedale and winter nights off Rout

Chester Township houses sit on real land — acres, barns, preserved farms, and colonials whose basements are often as large as a first-floor wing. A lot of that square footage still looks like 1987: painted concrete, a treadmill in the corner, holiday bins against the far wall. Finishing that level is one of the few ways to add living space in a township that values open lots more than extra wings. Done well, it becomes a guest suite, a gym you will actually use, or a place fo

Chester does not look like a township that grew up yesterday. Main Street still reads as a 19th-century village. Out in Chester Township you find farmhouses, stonework, and colonials that were standing when Route 206 was a wagon road. That character is why people buy here. It is also why a renovation that would be simple in a 1990s Randolph colonial can go sideways if you treat an old Chester house like a blank box. Burrini’s and Sons works throughout Morris County from our R

If you live in Randolph, you already know the kitchen is where the house actually runs — backpacks on the island, homework at the peninsula, dinner that has to work on a weeknight. The next question is always the same: what does it cost to redo it in 2026? There is no single number. A cabinet-and-counter refresh in a Shongum-area ranch is a different job than opening a wall in a Center Grove colonial and building a custom island. What you can have is a realistic range, a clea

Your home should make your life easier, not constantly remind you about the things that don't work. Maybe the kitchen feels cramped. Maybe the bathroom is outdated. Perhaps your basement is little more than storage, or your home's layout no longer fits the way your family lives. That is where remodeling can make a real difference. But we believe a successful home remodel starts long before demolition begins. The goal isn't simply to make a home look newer. It's to solve probl

Remodeling your home is a big investment. And if you're like most homeowners, you don't want to spend $50,000, $75,000, or even $100,000 on a project without knowing what you're getting in return. That's where things get tricky. You can find plenty of lists online claiming that kitchens, bathrooms, basements, or outdoor spaces are the “best” remodeling investments. But the reality is more complicated. The renovation with the highest potential return isn't necessarily the best

Your home should make everyday life easier—not create new frustrations. But here's what we've noticed after years of working with homeowners: most people don't decide to remodel overnight. Instead, the idea grows over time. It starts with a kitchen that's too cramped for family dinners, a bathroom that feels outdated, or a floor plan that no longer fits the way they live. At first, these issues seem easy to ignore. Then they begin affecting your comfort, your home's efficienc

When you own a home, it's easy to focus on the projects you can see—a fresh coat of paint, a remodeled kitchen, or new landscaping. But the work that truly protects your investment often happens behind the scenes. Routine home maintenance may not be the most exciting part of homeownership, but it's one of the smartest. A clogged gutter, a small roof leak, or a neglected HVAC system can quietly turn into repairs that cost thousands of dollars if left unchecked. We've seen this
