Avondale Home Remodeling —
Preserving Charm, Adding Function.
There's a reason Avondale consistently ranks as one of Jacksonville's most desirable neighborhoods. The Shoppes of Avondale, the towering oaks along St. Johns Avenue, the Tudor Revivals and Spanish Colonials that look like they belong in a magazine — this is a neighborhood that takes pride in its homes. And rightfully so.
Remodeling in Avondale comes with a responsibility: don't ruin what makes it special. The arched doorways, the original tile work, the wood-burning fireplaces with hand-laid brick, the built-in china cabinets — these aren't obstacles to a remodel. They're the reason the remodel needs to be done right.
TB Construction approaches Avondale renovations with the precision these homes demand. We've worked on Tudor Revivals along Pine Street, Colonial homes near Boone Park, and bungalows tucked behind the Shoppes. Every project starts with understanding what the home already has — and designing the renovation to complement it.
Kitchen Remodeling
Avondale kitchens run the gamut: some have been updated poorly over the decades (1980s oak cabinets in a 1925 Tudor — a crime), while others are still essentially original. Our approach is restorative modernization — kitchens that feel like they've always been part of the home but function like they were built yesterday. Custom inset cabinetry, honed countertops, unlacquered brass fixtures, and tile work that references the home's original patterns.

The original bathrooms in many Avondale homes are gems — hex floor tile, subway wall tile, pedestal sinks. Some deserve restoration, not replacement. We assess every bathroom honestly: if the original tile is sound and beautiful, we build around it. If it's failing, we replace it with period-appropriate materials that honor the home's era. Either way, you get a bathroom that works for modern life without looking like it time-traveled from a 2024 HGTV set.

Avondale homes frequently have original hardwood floors — often under layers of carpet, linoleum, or both. Uncovering and refinishing these floors is one of the most dramatic transformations we perform. When original floors aren't salvageable, we install engineered hardwood in species and stain colors that match the home's period.

FAQ.
We start with a thorough assessment of the home's existing character — architectural style, original materials, trim profiles, and details. Every design decision is made to complement what exists. We never impose a style that conflicts with the home's DNA.
Yes, much of Avondale falls within the Riverside/Avondale Historic District. Interior remodeling is generally unrestricted, but exterior changes visible from the street may require Historic Preservation Commission review. We guide you through this process.
In most cases, yes. We source period-appropriate hex tile, subway tile, and specialty patterns from suppliers who stock historically accurate reproductions. We've matched original tile in dozens of Avondale and Riverside bathrooms.
