Home remodeling isn’t just about changing how your home looks, it’s about improving how it works for you and your family. At Gambrick, we approach every project with care, precision, and a deep understanding of how thoughtful design can enhance everyday living.
Here’s what sets us apart:
- Custom design solutions: Every home is different. We tailor every project to match your goals, lifestyle, and taste.

Our Approach to Custom Home Remodeling
Most contractors either outsource design or rely on one-size-fits-all solutions. At Gambrick, we take a different approach—everything is handled in-house, and every remodel is built around your home, your needs, and your vision.
With over 40 years of experience working in homes throughout the Jersey Shore, we’ve fine-tuned a revamp process that’s personal, transparent, and grounded in local expertise. From kitchens and bathrooms to full-home makeovers, we deliver results that feel seamless, not slapped on.
- In-house design and construction under one roof
- Custom renovation plans—no generic templates

- Premium materials that complement your existing space

FAQ
How much does remodeling work cost in New Jersey?
It really depends on the size and scope of the project. A small bathroom update might be in the $15K–$35K range, while full-home upgrades can exceed $100K. We’ll walk you through a detailed estimate once we understand your goals and the space we’re working with.
How long does a typical project take?
Every project is different, but we’ll give you a clear timeline before we begin. Smaller updates (like a powder room or kitchen facelift) can take a few weeks. Larger renovations, like a full gut remodel, usually take 4-6 months. Our team keeps you updated every step of the way so there are no surprises.
Do I need permits for my renovation in Ocean or Monmouth County?
In most cases, yes—especially for structural changes, plumbing, or electrical work. The good news? We handle all the permitting for you and are fully familiar with local building codes in towns like Point Pleasant, Brick, Spring Lake, and beyond.
Can I live in my house during the renovation?
Often, yes. We do our best to keep work areas contained and clean. For bigger projects, like whole-house renovations, we might recommend temporary arrangements to keep things comfortable and safe. We’ll talk it through based on your situation.
What if I’m not sure exactly what I want yet?
No problem. That’s what we’re here for. During the design phase, we’ll help you explore options, look at layouts, and figure out what works best for your home and lifestyle. You don’t need all the answers before reaching out.
Do you work on older homes or coastal properties?
All the time. We have years of experience working with older homes in Shore towns like Bay Head, Manasquan, and Lavallette—so we understand the quirks and challenges that come with them, including structural upgrades and flood zone requirements.
Why should I choose a local builder instead of a big contractor chain?
Working with a local builder like us means you’re getting personal attention, custom design, and craftsmanship rooted in the community. We’re not a volume-based outfit—we care about getting it right for each client. And we’re just a short drive away if you ever need us.
