Custom Builds Across Richmond, VA
A look at the craft behind every VIVO project. Home additions, full renovations, custom kitchens, and primary bathrooms across Greater Richmond.
Home Additions in Richmond, VA
From second-story additions on Richmond ranches to bump-outs and primary suite expansions, every VIVO addition is designed to read as if it was always part of the original home.
Second-Story Additions on Richmond Homes
Adding a second floor to a single-story Richmond home requires a structural assessment, careful framing, and design that respects the original architecture. Every brick, roofline, and trim profile is matched to the existing house.
Matched Materials, Engineered to Code
Richmond's historic brick, mid-century siding, and modern infill all require different framing and finish strategies. Every addition is reviewed by a licensed structural engineer and permitted in Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield, or Goochland.
We are delighted with the addition that Vivo Contracting built for our family! Vivo transformed our mid-century brick split-level into our Tudor home. The entire Vivo team is very hardworking. They were also extremely punctual.
Whole Home Renovations in Richmond, VA
Full renovations of older Richmond homes — 1890s, 1920s, 1930s properties across The Fan, Museum District, Church Hill, and Westover Hills. Every trade handled in-house from framing to finish.
Full Renovations of Historic Richmond Homes
Renovating an older Richmond home means working around knob-and-tube wiring, balloon framing, and plaster walls. Our crew has opened up enough Richmond homes built before 1940 to know exactly what to expect behind every wall.
Updated Systems, Original Character
Older Richmond homes deserve modern systems without losing the details that make them worth preserving. Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and structural updates run alongside careful restoration of original trim, floors, and architectural lines.
We had an outstanding experience working with VIVO. Every detail of our vision was brought to life exactly as we had hoped, if not better. If you are looking for a contractor who is fast, skilled, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable to work with, I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Kitchen Remodels in Richmond, VA
Custom kitchen remodels designed for how Richmond families actually cook and entertain. Custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and finishes chosen for decades of daily use.
Open Concept Kitchen Remodels
Most Richmond kitchens were built when families ate in separate rooms. We open up walls safely, rework the entire footprint, and design the kitchen to flow into how the family actually lives today.
Custom Cabinetry, Stone Countertops, Built-In Detail
Every VIVO kitchen uses custom or semi-custom cabinetry sized to the exact space. Stone countertops, oversized islands, and hardware selected for how it performs after years of real cooking, not how it photographs on day one.
We had an outstanding experience working with Vivo (Elmer and Victor) on our full kitchen renovation. From start to finish, they were honest, thorough, and incredibly communicative. Any time there was a misunderstanding or miscommunication, the team handled it directly and made it right.
Bathroom Remodels in Richmond, VA
Primary suites, walk-in showers, and full bathroom rebuilds across Richmond. Built with proper waterproofing, rerouted plumbing, and finishes selected for Virginia humidity.
Primary Bathroom Remodels Built for Daily Life
A primary bathroom is the most personal room in a Richmond home. Walk-in showers, double vanities, freestanding tubs, heated floors, and finishes selected for how this couple actually starts and ends every day.
Custom Tile, Rerouted Plumbing, Quiet Luxury
Older Richmond bathrooms hide galvanized supply lines, cast iron drains, and rotted subfloors. We reroute every pipe, install proper waterproofing, and finish with marble, brass, and tile selected for Virginia humidity.
The service, attention to detail, and steadfast commitment to delivering high quality work from start to finish. We took two upstairs bathrooms to the studs and rebuilt with custom materials, much of which was very fragile and required a finer touch. VIVO manages their team well and is incredibly prompt. Highly recommend meeting with VIVO to plan your next project.
