FAQs & glossary
Answers
Frequently asked
Glossary
- Remodeling contractor
- A licensed professional who manages or performs structural and finish work on existing homes, from kitchen and bath updates to whole-house renovations, and who discusses scope, timelines and permit handling with homeowners at the show.
- General contractor (GC)
- The lead builder who coordinates subcontractors, schedules and inspections for a remodel. In California, contractors are licensed by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB); ask for a license number before signing anything.
- Change order
- A written amendment to a signed remodeling contract that records added or altered work and its cost. Ask for change orders in writing before extra work proceeds.
- Punch list
- The final checklist of small unfinished or corrective items a contractor completes before a remodel is closed out and final payment is made.
- Load-bearing wall
- A wall that carries part of a building's structural load. Removing or opening one up usually needs engineering review and a permit before work starts.
- Luxury vinyl plank (LVP)
- Resilient wood-look flooring that is waterproof and available in click-lock or glue-down formats, commonly used in Central Valley kitchens, bathrooms and rentals.
- Quartz vs. granite countertop
- Quartz is engineered, non-porous and low-maintenance; granite is natural stone that needs periodic sealing. Both are regular kitchen and bath upgrade options on display at home shows.
- Cabinet refacing
- Replacing doors and drawer fronts and veneering the cabinet boxes instead of full replacement, a lower-cost route to a refreshed kitchen.
- Aging-in-place remodel
- Modifications such as walk-in tubs, curbless showers, grab bars and wider doorways that keep a home usable as residents get older.
- Drought-tolerant landscaping
- Yards built around low-water plants, drip irrigation and hardscape, a good fit for Fresno's hot, dry San Joaquin Valley summers.
- Dual-pane (energy-efficient) windows
- Windows with two panes and low-E coatings that cut heat gain and energy bills, a frequent upgrade for older Fresno homes.
- Permit
- Official approval from the City of Fresno or Fresno County before certain work begins; permits trigger inspections and help protect resale value.
- Home warranty
- A service contract that covers repair or replacement of specified home systems and appliances, and is separate from homeowners insurance.
- Solar and battery storage
- Rooftop photovoltaic panels, sometimes paired with home batteries, marketed to cut electricity costs in the sunny San Joaquin Valley.
