Kitchen Remodeling
Overview
A kitchen remodel is one of the most impactful home improvement projects a Connecticut homeowner can undertake. The kitchen is where families gather, meals are prepared and daily routines play out. Sau Construction designs and builds custom kitchens that match your cooking style, your storage needs and your long-term lifestyle. Whether you are updating a tired space, opening up a closed floor plan or building a brand-new chef's kitchen from the ground up, we handle every phase of the project.
Our Process
Our kitchen remodeling process starts with a free in-home consultation where we measure the existing space, review your goals and discuss budget. You receive a detailed written estimate with itemized pricing, material allowances and a clear timeline before any work begins. From demolition through final touches, our crew manages cabinets, countertops, plumbing, electrical and finish carpentry as a coordinated process so you avoid the gaps and delays that come with juggling multiple subcontractors.

Bathroom Remodeling
Overview
A well-built bathroom adds daily comfort, functional storage and significant resale value to any Connecticut home. Sau Construction handles full bathroom renovations across the state, including custom tile work, vanities, plumbing fixtures, lighting, ventilation and complete waterproofing. Whether you need a quick powder room refresh, a guest bathroom update, a full primary bathroom overhaul or a brand-new bathroom added during a home addition, we deliver finished spaces built to perform and look great for many years.
Our Process
Every bathroom project starts with proper waterproofing and a clearly defined scope of work. You see the layout, fixtures and finishes before construction begins, so there are no surprises mid-build. We handle demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical, tile work, fixture installation and final inspection as part of one coordinated process. Our team protects floors, contains dust during demo and keeps the rest of your home livable while we work in the bathroom.
Materials & Project Scope
We work with porcelain and ceramic tile, natural stone, quartz and granite countertops, custom and stock vanities and a full range of plumbing fixtures from major brands.

Home Additions
Overview
When your family outgrows your home but moving is not the answer, a home addition gives you the space you need without leaving the neighborhood you love. Sau Construction builds full home additions across Connecticut, from foundation through final finish. Whether you need an extra bedroom for a growing family, a primary suite addition for more privacy, a sunroom for year-round natural light or a full second-story expansion, we deliver additions that match the look and structural integrity of your existing home.
Our Process
We handle every step of the addition process from start to finish. That includes architectural plans, Connecticut state and local building permits, foundation work, framing, roofing, siding, windows, electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, flooring and final finish work. We coordinate inspections with your local town and ensure the addition meets all current building codes. Our project management keeps you informed week by week with clear updates on progress, upcoming milestones and any decisions you need to make.
Materials & Project Scope
Common addition projects include single-story room additions over existing slabs, full second-story expansions that double living space, attached garages with bonus rooms above and connected sunrooms or four-season rooms.

Finished Basements
Overview
An unfinished basement is wasted square footage. Most Connecticut homes have full basements that can be transformed into valuable living space without the cost or complexity of a full home addition. Sau Construction transforms basements across the state into family rooms, home offices, home gyms, guest suites, playrooms, media rooms and full entertainment spaces. We handle every phase of the project from initial assessment through final finishes, delivering a finished basement that feels like a natural extension of your home rather than an afterthought.
Our Process
Connecticut basements need proper moisture management before any finishing work begins. We start every basement project with a thorough assessment of waterproofing, drainage, ventilation and insulation needs. If we find issues with foundation moisture, ground water or radon, we address them before framing begins. Then we build out the space with materials suited to below-grade environments, including moisture-resistant drywall, insulation rated for basement use, proper vapor barriers and flooring designed to hold up if minor moisture issues come up over time.
Materials & Project Scope
Basement projects often include adding a full or half bathroom, a wet bar or kitchenette, an egress window for code compliance, recessed lighting throughout and dedicated electrical circuits. We also build custom storage solutions, mechanical room enclosures and acoustic separation if you plan to use part of the space for music, theater or a home office.
What's Included
- Full framing, drywall and insulation installation
- Egress windows for safe emergency exits and code compliance
- Bathroom additions in basement spaces with full plumbing rough-in
- Wet bars, kitchenettes and entertainment area buildouts
- Flooring including luxury vinyl, engineered hardwood and carpet

Common Project Types

- Home office or workspace conversions with separate entrance
- In-law suites with bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette
- Home theater and media room with sound insulation
Decks & Patios
Overview
Outdoor living space is one of the best investments a Connecticut homeowner can make. A well-built deck or patio extends your usable home space, creates the perfect spot for cookouts and family time and adds significant resale value to your property. Sau Construction designs and builds custom decks and patios across Connecticut, using durable materials and proper construction techniques that hold up through New England summers, winters and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. Whether you want a simple back deck or a complex multi-level outdoor entertainment space, we handle the design, permits and construction.
Our Process
Every deck or patio project starts with a site visit where we measure your yard, assess grade and drainage and discuss how you plan to use the space. Connecticut requires permits for most elevated decks and structures over a certain height, and we handle the full permit process with your local town. For decks, we install proper footings below the frost line, structural posts, beams, joists and ledger boards before adding the decking surface. For patios, we focus on proper base preparation, drainage and edge restraint to prevent shifting over time.
Materials & Project Scope
We work with pressure-treated lumber, cedar, composite decking from major brands like Trex and TimberTech, natural stone, brick pavers and stamped concrete. Common features include built-in benches, planter boxes, pergolas for shade, decorative railings, integrated lighting, multi-level designs and connecting walkways from house to deck or patio.
What's Included
- Pressure-treated, cedar and composite decking installation
- Natural stone and brick paver patio installation
- Pergolas, arbors and shade structures
- Decorative and code-compliant railing systems

Interior and Exterior Painting
Overview
Fresh paint is the fastest, most affordable way to transform a home, inside or out. A quality paint job protects your siding from Connecticut weather, brightens interior spaces, increases resale value and resets the look of any room without the cost of a full remodel. Sau Construction provides full interior and exterior painting services across Connecticut. Our work includes proper surface preparation, premium paints and clean finished lines that protect and beautify your home for many years rather than peeling or fading after the first season.
Our Process
Every painting project starts with thorough preparation work, because the prep is what separates a paint job that lasts from one that fails quickly. Interior prep includes filling holes, sanding rough spots, caulking gaps, priming stained or repaired areas, masking trim and floors and protecting all furniture. Exterior prep includes pressure washing, scraping loose paint, sanding bare wood, caulking gaps around windows and trim and priming any exposed wood or rust spots before topcoats go on. We use premium paints from brands with proper warranties.
Materials & Project Scope
Interior projects include full wall, ceiling and trim painting, accent walls, kitchen cabinet refinishing and texture work. Exterior projects include full house painting, deck and fence staining, trim and shutter painting, door and garage door refinishing and pressure washing as a standalone service or as prep work before painting begins.

Drywall Installation and Repair
Overview
Whether you are finishing a brand-new room, repairing water damage from a roof leak, smoothing out an old textured ceiling or patching holes left by a previous owner, professional drywall work is the foundation of every clean, paint-ready interior finish. Sau Construction handles drywall installation, taping, mudding and finishing for homes across Connecticut. Our drywall work covers everything from full new-construction installs in additions and basements to minor repair work in existing homes.
Our Process
Quality drywall work is a craft. We start with proper hanging using the correct fastener spacing and screw depth, then move to taping with paper or fiberglass mesh tape depending on the application. We follow with multiple coats of joint compound, sanding between coats and feathering edges so seams completely disappear. The final result is a smooth, paint-ready surface that looks like one continuous wall rather than a series of patched panels. We also handle repair work that involves matching existing texture, blending into surrounding walls and addressing the underlying cause of damage.
Materials & Project Scope
Common drywall services include hanging new drywall in additions and basement projects, repairing water damage after plumbing leaks or roof issues, patching holes from electrical or plumbing work, smoothing over old popcorn ceilings and removing damaged drywall before reinstallation. We work with standard, moisture-resistant and fire-rated drywall depending on the application.
What's Included
- New drywall hanging and installation in additions and renovations
- Taping, mudding and three-coat finishing work
- Smooth, knockdown, orange peel and skip-trowel textures

Framing Services
Overview
Framing is the structural skeleton of every construction project. The quality of the framing determines whether walls stay straight, doors close properly, floors stay level and the home holds up to Connecticut snow loads and storm winds for decades. Sau Construction provides professional framing services for additions, basement build-outs, interior wall changes, garages, decks and full home renovations. Every framing job we do meets Connecticut state and local building codes and creates a solid foundation for the drywall, finishes and trim work that follow.
Our Process
Our framing crew works with quality lumber and precise techniques on every job. We handle proper layout, plate cutting, stud placement, header sizing, blocking for fixture mounting and structural support where needed. For additions and major projects, we work directly with engineered plans to ensure load-bearing requirements are met. We also handle the structural work involved in removing existing walls, including temporary support, header installation and reinforcement of surrounding framing to maintain structural integrity throughout the project.
Materials & Project Scope
Common framing projects include adding new walls to divide existing rooms, removing load-bearing walls to open up floor plans, framing entire additions from foundation up, building basement walls and partitions, framing roof structures and dormers and creating openings for new doors, windows or pass-throughs. We work with traditional dimensional lumber and engineered products including LVLs and microlams for headers and beams.

Masonry Work
Overview
Stone and brick masonry adds character, durability and lasting value to any Connecticut home. Quality masonry built right outlasts almost every other component of a property, holding up to extreme weather, foot traffic and decades of use without major maintenance. Sau Construction handles a wide range of masonry projects across Connecticut, from small front walkways to retaining walls, chimneys, steps, fire pits, outdoor kitchens and decorative stone features. Every masonry project we do is built to handle New England weather including freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads and seasonal moisture.
Our Process
Quality masonry depends on three things: proper base preparation, the right materials for the application and skilled craftsmanship in laying the stone or brick. We start every masonry project with a thorough assessment of the site, including grading, drainage and soil conditions. For walkways and patios, we excavate to the proper depth, install compacted gravel base, sand bedding and edge restraint before laying the surface material. For walls and chimneys, we work from solid footings below the frost line and use proper mortar mixes designed for Connecticut climate.
Materials & Project Scope
We work with a wide variety of materials including natural fieldstone, cut stone, brick, concrete block, concrete pavers, flagstone and bluestone. Common projects include front and side walkways, garden retaining walls, decorative stone columns, outdoor fireplaces and fire pits, chimney repair and rebuilding, stone veneer on house exteriors and stone steps from grade up to entry doors.
What's Included

Power Washing
Overview
Connecticut weather leaves siding, decks, walkways, patios and driveways covered in dirt, mildew, algae, moss and grime. Over time, that buildup damages surfaces, holds moisture against materials and makes your entire property look older and less cared for than it really is. Sau Construction provides professional power washing services across Connecticut to restore exterior surfaces and protect them from long-term damage. Power washing is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to refresh the look of your entire property without major renovation work.
Our Process
We adjust pressure levels and cleaning solutions based on the specific surface being cleaned. Soft washing with low pressure and specialized cleaning solutions is best for vinyl siding, painted wood and roofs, where high pressure could cause damage. Higher pressure with appropriate tips works well for concrete driveways, brick walkways, stone patios and stained or unpainted decks. Using the wrong pressure on the wrong surface causes real damage, which is why professional equipment and experience matter for every job.
Materials & Project Scope
Power washing also serves as essential preparation work before painting, staining or sealing projects. Loose paint, surface contamination and embedded dirt all interfere with how new finishes adhere to surfaces. A proper pressure wash before painting or staining ensures the new finish bonds correctly and lasts as long as the manufacturer warranty promises.
What's Included
- House and vinyl siding washing with soft-wash technique
- Wood, composite and painted deck cleaning
- Driveway and concrete walkway pressure washing
- Brick, stone and paver patio restoration
- Pre-paint and pre-stain surface preparation
- Mildew, algae and stain removal

Common Project Types
