Clive is one of those places that feels connected to everything while still giving you room to breathe. With easy access across the west metro and a community built around parks, trails, and outdoor space, Clive is a great place to settle in for the long haul. A big reason residents love the area is the Clive Greenbelt, a scenic corridor along Walnut Creek that runs through the community and brings people outside year-round.

Urbandale has a great mix of established neighborhoods and newer homes. Some homeowners want to update finishes that feel dated. Others want to personalize builder-grade materials, improve storage, or rework an open layout so it functions better for real life. Many families are also looking for more usable space without leaving a neighborhood they already love.
Common goals we hear from Urbandale homeowners include:
No matter the scope, we focus on the same thing: a finished space that fits your lifestyle, not just your Pinterest board.
A kitchen remodel can be a refresh or a full transformation. Either way, the best kitchens are designed around how you actually move through the space. We help Urbandale homeowners plan kitchens that look great, function better, and feel comfortable for everyday life.
Common kitchen upgrades include:
Bathrooms are small rooms with a big impact on your daily routine. If your bathroom feels cramped, dark, outdated, or short on storage, a remodel can make it feel calmer and easier to use.
Bathroom remodel options include:
Basement finishing is one of the best ways to add flexible living space without changing your home’s footprint. We help Urbandale homeowners turn basements into spaces that actually get used.
Basement spaces we commonly build:
A finished basement should feel like part of the home. That means we plan for comfort, moisture control, insulation, ceiling details, and lighting so the space works year-round.
If several areas of your home need updates, a whole-home remodel can create a cohesive plan instead of a piecemeal collection of projects. We help you connect the dots across rooms so the result feels intentional.
Whole-home remodeling may include:
Sometimes you do not need a new house. You need more space in the house you already have. Additions can solve that, especially when they are designed to look and feel like they belong.
Popular addition projects in Urbandale include:
Urbandale’s parks and trail system make it easy to enjoy the outdoors. Many homeowners also want the same experience at home. Outdoor living projects help you use your backyard more often and more comfortably.
Outdoor living projects we build:
