Get a Jump on Fall: Late-Summer Remodeling Projects to Book Now

Summer Projects That Pay Off This Fall

Summer always seems to fly by in Wisconsin. Before back-to-school schedules and fall weather settle in, now is the perfect time to tackle a home improvement project that sets you up for a more functional, beautiful home this fall.

At Steadfast Construction Services, we’re already booking into late summer — and many homeowners don’t realize how ideal this season is for getting work done. Here are some of the best remodeling projects to plan and start before the cooler months roll in:

1. Bathroom Remodels

Whether it’s your main bathroom, guest bath, or powder room, summer is the sweet spot for bathroom renovations.

Less disruption to routines (especially if kids are out of school)

Materials and fixtures are easier to source during mid-year months

Enjoy a refreshed, functional space before holiday guests arrive

Bonus: A new bathroom adds value and improves everyday comfort.

2. Basement Finishing or Upgrades

Want more space before colder weather pushes everyone indoors? Now’s the time to finish your basement.

Create a cozy lounge, game room, home office, or guest suite

Basements are naturally cooler, making summer construction more efficient

Finished space adds major resale value and seasonal enjoyment

Pro Tip: Add a fireplace or built-ins to make it fall-ready.

3. Kitchen Refresh or Full Remodel

The kitchen is the heart of the home — and the hub for upcoming fall gatherings.

Swap countertops, refinish cabinets, or rework your layout

New lighting, flooring, or backsplashes can transform the look and feel

Plan now to enjoy a functional kitchen in time for Thanksgiving

Steadfast Tip: Even a small update can boost both form and function.

4. Entryway or Mudroom Upgrades

Wisconsin weather calls for smart storage. Prepping your entry now means a smoother fall and winter.

Add built-ins, seating, or durable flooring

Improve lighting and organization

Keep dirt, boots, and clutter under control

Family-Friendly Fix: A mudroom remodel can change your entire day-to-day flow.

5. Exterior Repairs & Curb Appeal Projects

Get exterior work done before rain, leaves, and frost arrive.

Repair siding, roofing, and trim

Boost curb appeal with a fresh front porch or updated landscaping

Seal windows and doors for better energy efficiency

Bonus: You'll head into fall with peace of mind and fewer surprises.
