Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Selma
Bradford Remodeling handles general contracting in Selma with a written price before any tool leaves the truck. If you live near Floral Avenue, downtown off High Street, or out toward McCall Avenue, you’re dealing with a specific housing stock: mid-century homes with plaster walls, older framing, and surprises behind every soffit. We scope the job the way it actually is, not the way it looks on the surface. Call (903) 568-7222 for a free estimate and a line-item price in writing.
Why Bradford Remodeling Is Selma’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Selma homeowners call us because we put the price in writing before work starts, then we hold it. No numbers that move at the door. No scope creep disguised as “unforeseen conditions” unless we open a wall and show you exactly what changed. That matters in Selma, where a 1955 rancher on Rose Avenue and a 1970s split-level near Brentlinger Park can hide entirely different framing inside.
Our crew shows up background-checked and uniformed. You know who is walking through your door before they arrive. Every project is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, a written guarantee that says if the work fails within a full year, we come back and correct it at no charge. That guarantee is in your hand at job close, signed.
Curtis Lane runs our operations by The Garrison Standard, the framework we have used since 2004. It means live-person phone coverage 24/7, documented brand selections, and a punch list walk-through before we call the job done. Selma is part of our regular service area, and scheduling is coordinated from our Fresno, Central Valley office so local crews can reach Selma without delay.
Styles & brands we work with
Construction Company in Selma
Construction Company work in Selma typically means a home addition, a garage conversion, or structural changes to an existing footprint. A room addition in Selma runs $45,000 – $130,000 depending on square footage, foundation work, and whether we are tying into an existing roofline or building new. The first thing we check is the slab. Selma’s mid-century homes sit on post-tension slabs more often than homeowners realize, and that changes where we can cut, how we run plumbing, and what the structural engineer has to sign off on.
Scope and Permits
We pull permits from the City of Selma and schedule inspections before we close any wall. Rough-in inspection first, then final. If a homeowner skips this step, they risk tearing out finished work later to expose plumbing or electrical that never got signed off. We do not skip it.
Change Orders in Writing
Any change to the scope goes on a written change order before the work happens. You approve the number first. There is no mechanic running a tab and handing you a bill at the end. That is how a construction company should operate in Selma.
Remodeling Contractor in Selma
Remodeling Contractor work in Selma usually starts with a kitchen or bathroom. A small kitchen remodel here runs $9,000 – $20,000 and a bathroom remodel runs $9,000 – $28,000, but those numbers assume we open the wall and find standard framing. Selma’s plaster-era homes do not always cooperate. We have opened 1950s galley kitchens off Floral Avenue and found load-bearing walls with no header at all. That means a beam, an engineer’s letter, and a change order before we can move rough-in for the sink.
Kitchen and Bath Reality Check
We quote what we can see and price what we cannot see as a written allowance. Cabinets and countertops are the two biggest cost swings. KraftMaid cabinetry with a Cambria countertop is a specific, documented selection, and the allowance tells you exactly what that costs before you choose it. No sticker shock at the showroom.
The Whole-Home View
Sometimes a Selma homeowner starts with a kitchen and realizes the electrical panel is undersized, the floor joists are not level, and the hallway bath shares a wet wall with the kitchen. That is where a general contractor earns the title. We look at the house as one system, not one room. Our General Contractor team handles the full scope from rough-in to final clean.
Trusted Brands We Service in Selma
We install and service KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, and James Hardie exterior products across Selma. These are documented brands with manufacturer specs and warranties that back up our own 365-Day Done Right Promise. If a cabinet hinge fails or a countertop seam opens within the guarantee period, we return and correct it. You do not have to chase a manufacturer. You call us.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Selma Homes
- Hidden load-bearing walls. Mid-century Selma homes often have plaster over framing that was never built to today’s header standards. We open the wall, find no header or an undersized one, and the scope changes before rough-in can move forward.
- Post-tension slab surprises. If your home sits on a post-tension slab, cutting into it for a plumbing move or a new island location requires an engineer’s review and careful layout. A contractor who does not check this first can crack a tendon, and that is a serious structural problem.
- Undersized electrical panels. A kitchen remodel with new appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a dedicated range circuit often exceeds what a 100-amp panel from the 1970s can handle. We inspect the panel before we quote the finish work.
- No written allowances. Without a written allowance for cabinets, countertops, and fixtures, a remodel quote is just a guess. Selma homeowners tell us they have been burned by a contractor who let them pick materials first and then billed the difference. We write the allowance into the contract.

FAQs About General Contractor in Selma
Yes. Any structural change, plumbing relocation, electrical addition, or wall modification in Selma requires a permit from the City of Selma and an inspection before walls are closed. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and confirm every sign-off before we close up the work. Call (903) 568-7222 and we can walk you through what your specific project will require.
Because Selma’s mid-century housing stock often hides load-bearing walls, non-standard framing, and post-tension slabs that are not visible until demolition begins. Once we open a wall and find a structural issue, we bring you a written change order with the exact added cost before we do any additional work. You approve the number first. Call (903) 568-7222 for a free estimate that accounts for what we can see, with written allowances for what we cannot.
A small kitchen remodel in Selma typically runs four to eight weeks, depending on whether we find structural issues, whether the electrical panel needs upgrading, and how quickly the city schedules inspections. A full kitchen with a layout change, new rough-in, and custom cabinetry can run eight to twelve weeks. We give you a written schedule at contract signing, and we update it if anything changes. Call (903) 568-7222 to get a realistic timeline for your project.
Yes. We provide a written price before any work starts, every time. That price includes line items for everything we can see, plus written allowances for cabinets, countertops, fixtures, and any hidden conditions we flag during the initial walk-through. If we open a wall and find something structural that changes the scope, that becomes a written change order with its own number. You approve it before we touch it. Call (903) 568-7222 for a free estimate.
