We Know Choosing a Remodeler in Point Clear, AL Can Feel Stressful

Choosing a remodeler means handing a stranger the keys to the place your family lives. That is a big ask, and feeling cautious about it is the healthy response, not an overreaction.

Point Clear is not a growth town. It is a bay-front community of about 2,100 people where families have summered since the 1800s, the Grand Hotel has stood since 1847, and the median sale price now sits above $1.2 million. Contractors know that, and not every one who shows up on Scenic 98 has earned the trust that kind of home deserves.

So we will say this plainly. The first conversation costs nothing, requires no deposit, and comes with no pressure. We drive over from our Foley office, about 30 minutes on County Road 32 or Highway 98, look at your home, listen, and give you a straight answer.

If your project is not the right fit for us, we will tell you that too, and point you toward someone better suited to it. You deserve a clear answer either way.

What We Hear

What Point Clear, AL Homeowners Tell Us Before They Call

After four years of in-home consultations across the Gulf Coast, and now from an office in downtown Foley, we hear the same handful of stories. Not from everyone, and not about everyone, but often enough that we built our whole process around them.

In Point Clear, a lot of those stories come from families who inherited or bought a bay-front cottage and want it to hold up to the next storm season without losing the porch and the heart pine. The rest come from Lakewood and Colony homeowners who have been burned once already.

We are sharing them here because naming the thing out loud usually takes some of its weight off. Here is what homeowners describe, and exactly how a Wise Builders project answers it.

The image reflects milestone-based payments, written change orders, permits pulled with Baldwin County Building Inspection, daily updates, and a comprehensive final walkthrough on every Eastern Shore remodeling project.
What Point Clear Homeowners Have Told Us How Wise Builders Handles It

Days passed with nobody on site and no explanationYour dedicated project manager sends an update on every active work day, and you hold the schedule from day one
The final invoice looked nothing like the number they were quotedYour fixed estimate is in writing before demolition, and any change becomes a written change order you approve first
Nobody could tell them who was actually in charge of the jobOne named project manager, like Jim Brock or Graham Brock, owns your project from first drawing to final walkthrough
Small punch list items dragged on for months after the crew leftWe complete a comprehensive final walkthrough and keep working until you sign off, backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee
They ended up chasing permits, flood paperwork, and inspections themselvesWe confirm whether your parcel is unincorporated or inside Fairhope city limits, pull the permit with Baldwin County Building Inspection or the City of Fairhope, handle the elevation certificate if you are in a flood zone, and schedule every inspection
A crew from out of the area disappeared after the last hurricane seasonWe have a physical office at 105 W Camphor Ave in Foley, 18 miles away, a Theodore headquarters, and a team that has worked this coast since 2022

None of that is complicated. It is a standard, kept consistently, on every job.

Our Story

Why Wise Builders Opened an Office in Foley, AL

Wise Builders Roofing and Renovations was established in 2022 for a simple reason. The remodeling itself was rarely the hard part for homeowners. The not knowing was.

So we built the company backward from that. Assign one person to own each job. Put the number in writing. Set the timeline before anyone swings a hammer. Then answer the phone.

We had been driving across the bay to Baldwin County jobs for years. As Foley grew into the second-largest city in the county, it made sense to stop commuting to our customers and put an office where they live.

Our Foley office is at 105 W Camphor Ave #100A, Foley, AL 36535, a few blocks from the Historic Depot Museum.

Point Clear is about 18 miles west of that office, roughly half an hour by County Road 32 or Highway 98, and the same project managers who run our Foley jobs run our Point Clear jobs. There is no separate crew and no subcontracted "bay team."

Four years in, that structure is still the whole business, and it is what 160+ Google reviewers keep describing in their own words.

Owner Cody stays hands-on with the company he built, and the project manager structure is what puts an accountable, named person on your job every active day.

Why Wise Builders

Three Promises We Make on Every Point Clear Remodel

One Point of Contact, Start to Finish

You get the same dedicated project manager from the first drawing to the final walkthrough.

We assign a dedicated project manager to every job and send you an update on every active work day. Experienced managers like Jim Brock, Graham Brock, Nathan Ivy, John Hagan, and William Fields handle the scheduling, the trades, and the paperwork, so the answers come to you instead of you going after them.

One Fixed Price, In Writing

Your estimate is a firm number, locked before demolition begins.

We provide a transparent, fixed estimate in writing. Project scope, materials, and schedule are all settled before the first wall comes down. You get one number to plan around, with no hidden fees and no add-ons appearing at the end. If the scope changes or the walls reveal something unforeseen, and in a 1920s bay cottage they sometimes do, the price only moves through a written change order you approve before the work happens.

One Firm Timeline, Set Up Front

You know your start date, your milestones, and your finish date on day one.

We build a precise timeline that accounts for Baldwin County permitting and any floodplain review from the start. Then we run a comprehensive final walkthrough and keep working until you are fully satisfied. You always know exactly what happened today and what is planned for tomorrow.

The Standard

What High-End Remodeling Actually Means in Point Clear, AL

High-end is not a price tag. It is a level of planning, materials, and finish detail that builder-grade work skips, and in Point Clear it also means building for bay humidity, salt air, storm surge, and a hurricane season that has already tested this shoreline.

We are a full design-build general contractor. We draw the layout, source the finishes, pull the permits, coordinate every trade, and stand behind the finished work in writing.

Design intent carries straight through to construction because the same team owns both. Nothing gets lost in a handoff between a designer, a contractor, and a list of subs.

Where the Difference Shows Up on a Point Clear Remodel

The gap between a high-end remodel and a builder-grade job is not square footage. It is what happens in the details you live with every day, and on the bay it is also what happens when the water comes up.

Three Kinds of Point Clear Homes, Three Kinds of Remodel

Point Clear's housing stock is unlike anywhere else in Baldwin County. A community that has drawn summer families since before the Civil War holds century-old cottages, 1970s and 1980s golf homes, and estates that closed last year within a mile of each other. Each one asks for a different remodel.

Point Clear Home TypeWhere You Find ItWhat the Remodel Usually Involves
Historic summer cottages and bay-front estatesScenic Highway 98, Battles Wharf, Zundel's, the boardwalk south of the Grand HotelKitchens and baths opened up inside an old footprint, wiring and plumbing brought to current code, heart pine, porches, and bay-facing character kept, flood-resistant materials below base flood elevation
1970s to 2000s golf and club homesLakewood Club Estates, Point Clear Estates, Point Clear Woods, Point Clear Tennis Club, Point Clear StablesOriginal kitchens and baths replaced with custom cabinetry, quartz, tile showers, and better ventilation, often with a primary-suite reconfiguration
Newer construction and planned communitiesThe Colony at the Grand, Battles Trace at the Colony, Meadows at Point Clear, Stillwood, Villas at Point ClearFinish upgrades the builder did not offer, outdoor living and sunroom additions, and accessibility modifications for aging in place

Your free consultation starts with which house you own, because a 1925 cottage on the boardwalk and a 2019 build in Battles Trace do not get the same plan, and one of them may need an elevation certificate before a permit is issued.

Who We Remodel For in Point Clear

Our Point Clear clients are not all chasing the same project, and that is the point. We scale to the home and the goal in front of us.

  • Bay-front homeowners investing in a forever home who want a luxury kitchen or primary suite that also stands up to the next storm.
  • Families who inherited a historic summer cottage and want to update it without erasing what makes it theirs.
  • Retirees and empty nesters at Lakewood, the Colony, and Point Clear Estates modernizing for the next 20 years of comfort and accessibility.
  • Second-home owners from Mobile, Birmingham, and New Orleans who need a remodeler who sends daily updates while they are away.
  • Eastern Shore professionals who bought a newer home near the Grand and want the finishes the builder never offered.
  • Veterans using VA SAH and SHA grants for accessibility modifications.

We also remodel occupied homes every week using phased sequencing, dust control, and clear work boundaries, so your family keeps living at home while the work moves forward.

Step 1 of 6 · Free In-Home Design Consultation
1

Step 1. Free In-Home Design Consultation

We measure the space, listen to how you actually use it, and assess the existing structure before we talk numbers. On a bay-front home, that includes checking your flood zone and elevation before anyone sketches a layout.

2

Step 2. Transparent Fixed Estimate

You receive scope, materials, and schedule in writing, with a firm number and no hidden add-ons.

3

Step 3. Design and Selections

We guide cabinetry, counters, tile, and fixtures to fit your budget, your house, and the salt air and bay humidity of the Eastern Shore.

4

Step 4. Permitting and Scheduling

Point Clear is unincorporated, so most homes permit through Baldwin County Building Inspection, reached at 251-972-6837 and through the county's CitizenServe portal at BaldwinCountyAL.gov/CSP. Counter service is at the Fairhope satellite office at 1100 Fairhope Avenue and the Foley office at 201 East Section Avenue. We submit, plan around the review window, and lock in your start date.

Some parcels toward Battles Wharf and along Highway 98 have been annexed into Fairhope, and those permit through the City of Fairhope Building Department instead. We confirm which jurisdiction your lot falls under before we file anything, so nothing gets rejected on a technicality.

Bay-front lots along Scenic 98 sit in FEMA AE and VE flood zones. Baldwin County's floodplain ordinance requires an elevation certificate from a licensed surveyor before permitting, flood-resistant materials below base flood elevation plus one foot, and no plumbing fixtures or HVAC equipment below that line. If your home is in a Lakewood or Colony HOA, we also handle the architectural review submittal.

5

Step 5. Build Phase

Your project manager coordinates every trade, schedules each county or city inspection, and updates you on every active work day.

6

Step 6. Final Walkthrough

We walk the finished project with you and keep going until you are satisfied, guaranteed. In a flood zone, a finished-construction elevation certificate is submitted before final inspection.

Local Ranges

Remodeling Costs in Point Clear, AL

Every home is different, but local ranges help you plan. The figures below reflect typical South Baldwin County project costs, and your in-home estimate refines them to your exact scope and finish level. Bay-front estates and historic cottages tend to land in the upper tiers because of custom millwork, structural surprises, and flood-zone requirements.

Kitchens

Kitchen Remodeling in Point Clear, AL

Kitchen remodeling is the redesign and rebuild of your kitchen's layout, cabinetry, surfaces, and systems. It is the highest-impact remodel most Point Clear homeowners can make, both for daily life and for resale in a market where the median sale price passed $1.2 million this year.

Wise Builders handles the full kitchen: layout changes, custom cabinetry, countertops, flooring, lighting, and the plumbing and electrical behind the walls. A large kitchen remodel in Point Clear typically runs 4 to 8 weeks on site.

In a bay-front cottage, the kitchen is often the room that gets opened toward the water, so we plan the structural work, the window package, and the humidity control together instead of one at a time.

We sequence the work so you regain a functioning kitchen as fast as the scope allows, and we protect the rest of your home while we do it.

What a Point Clear Kitchen Remodel Costs by Scope

Kitchen budgets in Point Clear span a wide range because scope does. A 1980s kitchen in a Lakewood golf home and a full custom kitchen in a Scenic 98 estate sit at opposite ends of this table. Use the tiers below to place your project, then let your in-home estimate set the exact number.

Kitchen ScopeInvestment RangeWhat It Usually Covers

Luxury Kitchen Upgrades Point Clear Homeowners Are Requesting

The most-requested high-end kitchen features have moved well past a coat of paint. These are the upgrades driving Point Clear kitchen remodels right now.

01

Farmhouse and Apron-Front Sinks

A farmhouse sink is a deep, exposed-front basin that anchors the workspace and reads instantly custom. We set apron-front sinks in fireclay, stainless, and composite granite to match the counter and cabinet package, and in an older cottage it suits the house better than almost any other single upgrade.

02

Waterfall-Edge Islands and Slab Backsplashes

Waterfall islands carry the countertop material vertically down the sides for a continuous, architectural look. Paired with a full-height slab backsplash in quartz or marble, the result is a continuous, grout-free surface that also shrugs off bay humidity.

03

Custom Cabinetry, Panel-Ready Appliances and Pot Fillers

Panel-ready refrigerators and dishwashers disappear behind cabinet fronts for a built-in, uninterrupted look. We pair them with custom cabinetry, soft-close hardware, deep drawers, and a wall-mounted pot filler over the range.

04

Butler's Pantries and Sculleries

A scullery or butler's pantry hides prep, small appliances, and cleanup in a secondary space so the main kitchen stays clean and open. It is one of the fastest-growing requests in high-end Point Clear remodels, especially in homes that fill up with extended family every summer and every jubilee.

Bathrooms

Bathroom Remodeling in Point Clear, AL

Bathroom remodeling is the renovation of a bathroom's fixtures, surfaces, plumbing, and layout, from a refresh to a full spa-grade primary suite. It is often the fastest remodel to deliver a daily payoff.

Wise Builders addresses the waterproofing and ventilation that Point Clear's bay humidity and salt air demand, not just the tile you see. A full bathroom renovation in Point Clear typically takes 3 to 6 weeks depending on scope.

Many older Point Clear cottages were built as seasonal houses with small, added-on bathrooms, so a remodel here often means finding room for a real primary bath inside an old footprint without touching the porch. We build for both luxury and longevity, so a beautiful bathroom still performs a decade from now, a few hundred feet from Mobile Bay.

What a Point Clear Bathroom Remodel Costs by Scope

Bathrooms range from a focused refresh to a full primary suite rebuild. Here is how Point Clear budgets typically break down.

Bathroom ScopeInvestment RangeWhat It Usually Covers
Minor$6,800 to $12,200New vanity, toilet, fixtures, tile floor, lighting, and paint in the existing footprint
Mid-range$16,000 to $32,000Tub-to-shower conversion, tiled shower, new vanity and counters, upgraded ventilation and waterproofing
Major$42,000 to $62,000Layout changes, curbless walk-in shower or wet room, freestanding tub, double vanity, heated floors, smart fixtures

High-End Bathroom Features We Build in Point Clear

Today's Point Clear bathroom remodels are quietly becoming small spas. These are the features homeowners ask us for most.

01

Curbless and Zero-Entry Walk-In Showers

A curbless, zero-entry shower removes the threshold for a continuous tile floor and easy accessibility. It relies on precise subfloor slope and drainage, which is exactly where a licensed builder earns the job. It is also the single most requested feature from Point Clear's retirees at Lakewood and the Colony.

02

Wet Rooms and Freestanding Soaking Tubs

A wet room places the shower and a freestanding soaking tub in one waterproofed zone, often under natural light. The freestanding tub becomes the design anchor of the room, and on the bay side of the house it usually gets the window.

03

Smart Toilets, Bidets and Heated Floors

Smart toilets from brands like TOTO and Kohler add heated seats, self-cleaning nozzles, and integrated bidet functions. Paired with radiant heated floors, the most-requested luxury bath upgrade, the room feels high-end every morning.

04

Double Vanities, Mixed-Metal Fixtures and Large-Format Tile

Double vanities in white oak or walnut, mixed brass and matte-black fixtures, and large-format porcelain slabs define the current high-end bathroom. We detail every transition so nothing reads builder-grade.

★★★★★Google Review

"Wise Builders recently renovated our bathroom (floor, walls, ceiling, trim, vanity, vent, outlets) and did a fantastic job! Not one time did I have to ask them to go back and fix something that was not right. They were also very helpful in finding the best solution when we encountered some unforeseen issues."

Additions

Home Additions in Point Clear, AL

A home addition adds new permanent square footage to your existing house, from a single room to a full second story. It is the answer when you love your Point Clear lot but have outgrown the floor plan, and on a bay-front parcel you cannot replace, it almost always beats moving.

Wise Builders designs and builds additions that match the existing structure, roofline, and foundation, so the new space looks original. As a full GC, we manage foundation, framing, roofing, and interior finish in one contract.

On the bay side of Scenic 98, an addition also has to respect the flood zone. In a VE zone that means a pile or column foundation and no solid walls below base flood elevation, and we design for that from the first sketch rather than discovering it at the permit counter.

Additions in Alabama typically run $125 to $250 per square foot, with total projects ranging from roughly $34,000 to $170,000 depending on size and finish. Most Point Clear additions run 2 to 5 months from permit to final walkthrough.

Additions We Design and Build in Point Clear

An addition is one of the most structural projects a homeowner can take on, which is why a licensed GC matters. These are the additions Point Clear families request most.

01

Primary-Suite Additions

A primary-suite addition pairs a new bedroom with a spa bath and walk-in closet for a private retreat. It is the highest-value addition for both comfort and resale in the Point Clear market, and in an old summer cottage it is often the first real primary suite the house has ever had.

02

Sunrooms and Enclosed Porches

Sunrooms and enclosed porches add year-round living space built for coastal weather, with proper insulation, ventilation, and storm-rated glazing. On the bay, that glazing and the roof tie-in are engineered for Baldwin County wind loads, and a screened bay-side porch is the addition Point Clear homeowners ask for most.

03

Second-Story and Bump-Out Additions

When the lot is tight, or when the flood zone limits what can happen at ground level, we build up instead of out with second-story additions, or expand a kitchen, bath, or living area with a targeted bump-out. Both require careful structural engineering we manage in-house.

04

In-Law Suites and Accessible Ground-Floor Living

In-law suites and accessible ground-floor additions add independent living space, including VA SAH grant modifications like ramps, roll-in showers, and widened doorways for eligible veterans. With grown children and grandchildren returning to the bay every summer, the in-law suite is one of our most common Eastern Shore requests.

Whole-Home

Whole-Home Renovations in Point Clear, AL

Home renovations restore, update, and reconfigure the spaces you already have, whether that is one tired room or a whole-home transformation. It is the broadest service we offer and the one that ties everything else together.

Wise Builders handles full home renovations across Point Clear: flooring throughout, interior painting, drywall, trim, finish carpentry, and open-concept wall removals. A whole-home renovation typically runs 3 to 6 months depending on scope.

In Point Clear, a whole-home renovation often means a bay cottage that has been in the family for two or three generations, where the goal is to keep the heart pine floors, the beadboard, and the porch, and quietly replace everything behind them.

Because we are also a roofing and exterior contractor, we renovate inside and out under one roof, from the shingles to the baseboards, without you juggling multiple companies. On the bay that matters more than most places, because the roof and the elevation are the first two things every insurer asks about.

Whole-Home Renovation Services in Point Clear

A whole-home renovation only works when every trade is coordinated by one team. That is the core of what we do.

  • Flooring installation throughout the home, including hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, and tile.
  • Interior painting for large-scale projects.
  • Drywall, trim, and finish carpentry, including matching original beadboard and millwork in historic cottages.
  • Open-concept renovations and load-bearing wall removals.
  • Coordinated exterior work: roofing, FORTIFIED roof upgrades, siding, gutters, and paint.

Renovations Built for Point Clear's Coastal Climate

Point Clear's climate is hard on houses. A renovation here has to account for bay humidity, salt air, wind load, storm surge, and the shoreline itself, not just style.

Hurricane Sally came ashore at Gulf Shores on September 16, 2020, and drove surge and wind straight up Mobile Bay. Along Scenic 98 it tore up private piers and boardwalks, pushed water over bulkheads, and dropped century-old oaks onto bay-front homes. The Grand Hotel closed for eight days. Some neighbors spent months rebuilding piers and porches.

The homes that held up had roofs and framing built to a higher standard and flood-resistant construction below the living floor, which is why we specify moisture-resistant materials, proper ventilation, and code-compliant framing on every renovation.

Because Wise Builders is also a FORTIFIED roofing contractor, a whole-home renovation is the natural time to bring the roof up to that standard too, and to ask your insurer about the wind mitigation discount that comes with it.

“Wise Builders recently completed a major renovation on my home through a VA Special Adaptive Housing grant, including ramps, a roll-in shower, and expanded doorways. From the very beginning, Jim Brock, the project manager, was outstanding.”

What makes Wise Builders a high-end remodeler in Point Clear, AL?

Do you ask for a large deposit before starting a Point Clear, AL remodel?

We collect a 50% deposit, and it is tied in writing to specific work and materials, so your money is committed to your project from day one. The balance follows written milestones you approve as the work is completed, and your fixed estimate spells the whole schedule out before you sign anything.

Do you handle permits for remodeling and additions in Point Clear, AL?

Yes. Point Clear is unincorporated, so most homes permit through Baldwin County Building Inspection at 251-972-6837 and the county CitizenServe portal, with counter service at the Fairhope satellite office at 1100 Fairhope Avenue. Parcels that have been annexed into Fairhope permit through the City of Fairhope instead, and we confirm your jurisdiction before filing.

If your home sits in an AE or VE flood zone along the bay, we handle the elevation certificate and floodplain review as part of the permit. Permitting is built into your timeline, so you never chase paperwork yourself.

Can I stay in my Point Clear, AL home during the remodel?

In most cases, yes. We remodel occupied Point Clear homes using phased sequencing, dust control, and clear work boundaries so your family can keep living at home while the project moves forward. For second-home owners who are away, your project manager's daily update does the walking-through for you.
