Small Projects
Smart Solutions for the Spaces You Use Every Day
Not every home improvement project needs to be a major renovation.
Sometimes, it’s the smaller spaces, and the everyday frustrations, that can make the biggest difference in how your home works for you. Maybe your mudroom needs better storage. Your laundry room could be much more functional. The garage needs a place for everything. Or there’s an underused corner of your home that could become the wet bar, built-in storage, or charging station you’ve been thinking about.
For these focused projects, Smithouse offers a streamlined Measure + Build approach that brings the same quality craftsmanship, thoughtful planning, and professional project management our clients expect from us, without the need for a full Design + Build process.
Small Projects. Big Improvements.
Our Small Projects service is designed for clearly defined improvements that require more than a typical handyman visit but don’t necessarily need the involvement of our full design team.
We start by understanding what you want to accomplish, evaluating and measuring the space, and developing a straightforward plan for the work. From there, our experienced craftsmen and project team handle the details and construction.
Small Projects may include:
Grab bars, improved lighting, comfort-height fixtures, safer flooring, handrails, accessible storage, and other targeted modifications that help make an existing home easier and safer to navigate.
Access improvements, storage platforms, doors, insulation-related improvements, and other solutions that make these overlooked areas more functional and accessible.
Upgrade one part of an existing finished basement with a bar, entertainment center, built-ins, storage, home gym improvements, or other focused enhancements.

The SMithouse Experience
A smaller project shouldn’t mean lowering your expectations.
Since 2005, Smithouse Design + Build has built its reputation on quality craftsmanship, careful planning, communication, and respect for our clients’ homes. Our Small Projects clients receive that same commitment.
You’ll know who is working in your home, what work is being completed, and what to expect throughout the project. And because our team can coordinate the carpentry, cabinetry, electrical, plumbing, finishes, and other trades your project may require, you won’t have to manage multiple contractors yourself.
