Who you would be hiring
We approach construction as an art.
Craftsmanship
Home renovation and general construction for residential and commercial clients across the Pittsburgh region. Bathrooms, kitchens and basements, brought to life.
Reputation
We take pride in the work and stand behind every project we finish. One year of labor warranty, fully licensed and insured, license #PA178608.
Philosophy
Great design is powerful, and we are shaped by the rooms we live in. From the first conversation to the last walkthrough, everything gets done with care and attention.
A finished lower level, and an accessible bathroom built for aging in place.
Why the owl
The great horned owl on our mark stands for precision, wisdom, focus and attention to detail. That is the whole reason we picked her.
Featured projects
Four rooms, four different answers.
Octopus Garden
The client knew one thing going in: bold, colorful and fun. Once the layout was settled we went through several rounds of design together and landed on orange octopus wallpaper, an ocean blue glass tile shower with two water outputs and a big comfortable bench, large-format blue chevron floor tile, and a custom vanity with a wall-mount spigot and a custom shaped mirror.
Calacatta Marble Kitchen
The client wanted a kitchen that read as theirs without giving up any function. We designed the whole room around their antique hutch and made it the heart of the space.
Timeless Bathroom Remodel
Classic materials with modern, elegant touches. Large-format white marble-look tile in the shower against a vintage-inspired black and white hexagon mosaic floor, polished chrome fixtures, a clean white vanity, and glass sconces flanking an oval mirror.
Blue Bow-tie Backsplash
A compact Glenshaw kitchen balancing cool grey with texture and color. The dimensional aqua backsplash tile is the focal point, set to give the room a sense of movement. Custom grey shaker cabinetry with a built-in wine rack, bright white quartz counters, black appliances and an oil-rubbed bronze gooseneck faucet.
Housing Excellence Awards
Three awards, three rooms.
Clients with a big empty basement and a love for hosting. The room had to carry game days and wine nights both, carved into zones without turning into a hallway of small boxes.
A dark color-drenched palette. Large-format black tile, matching matte black fixtures and a custom tiled shower bench, balanced by warm wood paneling across the wall and the slanted ceiling.
Built on custom Amish cabinetry, chosen for the craftsmanship, the durability and the natural warmth of the wood, with a handcrafted Rosemary Fireclay tile backsplash for texture.
Three categories in one night at the Housing Excellence Awards.
Services
What we take on.
We walk you through every step, from design to the finished product, to give you the kitchen you have been picturing.
The room we are asked for most often, and the one we specialize in.
Hundreds, sometimes thousands, of square feet of comfortable usable space you already own.
Deck construction and refinishing, plus fencing installation, for the outdoor side of the property.
Looking for something beyond this list? We handle residential and commercial construction.
Crisp tile installation for a bathroom or a backsplash, set the way it was drawn.
An in-house design team for layouts, materials and the hundred small decisions in between.
Cleanliness
A tidy site, every day of the job.
A cluttered site makes for a cluttered mind, so we obsess over the order of ours. Floors, bannisters and walls get shielded before anything comes out. Your belongings get treated with care. Dust gets mitigated, the site gets organized daily, and we agree with you up front on where materials go and how the cleanup runs.
Every tread and riser on the route in, papered and taped.
Furniture sealed and floors covered in the rooms next door.
A zippered containment wall so the dust stays on our side of it.
The cut station set up inside the protection, not on your rug.
Cleanliness is close to godliness.

Contact
Text photos of your project to (412) 204-7073 with a short description of the scope. We call you back to hear about you and the room. This is our preferred first step because it saves you time, but the form and the phone both work too.
Design
We come out, look at the space and hear more about what you are picturing. After the walkthrough you get an official quote. If you go with us, material selection starts right away, and once it is finalized you go on the schedule.
Construction
Meticulous attention to detail, a clean and organized worksite, and constant communication. If there is anything that would make you happier along the way, tell us and we will handle it.
Reviews
What your neighbors said.
“We are so glad we worked with Enlightened Remodeling for our complete kitchen and partial bathroom remodels. Alex and his crew were great and we are so happy with the results. I would recommend them to everyone. They are real craftspeople and very creative as well, offering solutions to any problems that popped up. We love our kitchen and bathrooms now!”Karen K. Squirrel Hill Kitchen Remodel
“We hired PGH Enlightened to remodel our parents’ main bathroom to be ADA compliant for aging in place and to replace the flooring in the entire unit. The experience, led by Project Manager Alex and Foreman Donald, was outstanding.”Darlene J. Lawrenceville Bathroom Remodel
“Alex, the owner of the company, did a fantastic job explaining the entire process, and also exuded a ton of confidence in answering all of my technical questions (e.g., why use x-material and not y-material), making it very easy for me to select ER.”Charles M. Clairton Bathroom Remodel
