One of the most powerful ways to transform your home during a renovation is by changing the layout. Whether it’s removing a wall to open up a space or reconfiguring a kitchen for better workflow, layout changes in a home remodel can significantly boost functionality and comfort. At Big O Renovations, we help Southern Utah homeowners reimagine their floor plans to fit how they actually live.
Why Layout Matters
A home can have beautiful finishes and updated materials, but if the layout is awkward or inefficient, it just doesn’t work. Improving the flow of your home can:
- Make everyday tasks easier
- Create better connections between rooms
- Allow for more natural light and visibility
- Increase usable space without adding square footage
Smart layout changes can make your home feel bigger, brighter, and better organized.
Common Layout Changes We Make
Every home is different, but these are a few of the most popular layout adjustments we help clients with:
Removing Walls
Taking down non-load-bearing walls can open up kitchens, living areas, or entryways. In many older homes, rooms were built small and separate. Removing those divisions creates a more modern, open-concept feel.
Expanding Bathrooms
Reconfiguring a bathroom to include a larger shower, add a double vanity, or increase storage can greatly improve both comfort and functionality. We often adjust walls and plumbing to make the most of the space.
Kitchen Flow Improvements
We regularly relocate appliances, islands, or pantry areas to improve how homeowners move and cook in their kitchens. A better kitchen layout means less frustration and more enjoyment.
Reworking Entryways and Hallways
Small layout shifts in tight entry areas or long hallways can reduce wasted space and improve flow to the rest of the home.
How We Approach Layout Changes
Not every renovation company is equipped to make layout changes safely and efficiently. At Big O Renovations, we:
- Assess structural impacts before making changes
- Work with reliable engineers when needed
- Ensure all updates meet local building codes
- Prioritize clean, professional execution
We walk you through all your options and help you visualize how the changes will affect your space—before construction begins.
Adding Long-Term Value
Layout changes aren’t just about day-to-day improvements. They also add serious value to your home. When future buyers walk into a home that feels open, organized, and functional, they’re more likely to see themselves living there—and more willing to pay for that experience.
