Whole Home Remodeling + Home Additions Des Moines
Metro Des Moines | Urbandale | Johnston | West Des Moines | Ankeny

To Add-on or to Remodel for More Space? That is the Question. We have the answer.
Our homes are so much more than four walls and a roof. They are a place to connect, reconnect, make memories, and grow. For growing families that are invested in their current home, neighborhood, and way of life, moving into a new home may be out of the question. The solution? Add onto the home you love!
Adding onto your home can look different depending on your family’s needs, your budget, and your end-goal. The team at Compelling Homes is here to help you determine whether what you are looking for is better-suited for additional square footage or a whole home remodel – where we work with your existing home “blueprint” and maximize the way you live within the space you have.







Our 5-Step Design-Build Process for Quality Craftsmanship
Phone interview to discuss wants & needs. In-home meeting after reviewing our online pricing guide. Discuss possible options and what can be done. Follow-up with free budget range email and scope of work. Meeting the project manager is essential for understanding the necessary steps and organization required before construction begins.
We’ll let you know what the design fees will cost before anything is measured - we want to keep education up, and expenses down! We’ll collaborate with you on our concept to ensure it captures your wants and needs, and make changes to that concept before we estimate.
Enter into a construction agreement based on design, drawings, and scope of work. SHOPPING DAY! Our favorite day. We spend the day shopping with you and assisting you in selections for your dream space. The entire team is involved in helping with selections and ensuring a smooth process.

What Our Clients Think
The Compelling Homes team is second to none. Many companies talk about customer service and looking at things from a customer's perspective, but few follow through — the entire team from the owner on down lives it. In addition, their ability to adapt and deliver is extraordinary. Add in the talented people they bring in to complete all aspects of the construction and remodel project, and we couldn’t be more happy with the results.

What Our Clients Think
I cannot say enough good things about Compelling Homes. We are nearly complete with a 4th remodel job using this fine company and the service just keeps getting better. The owner (Rusty Green) will go to any length to keep his customers informed, satisfied and happy. He is a real pro at what he does! Even more, he is a man of the highest values and integrity.
Use this company for your next remodel - big or small. They will not disappoint.Mike

What Our Clients Think
The Compelling Homes team designed an amazing remodel for our entire first floor. The attention to detail created an awesome finished product that we absolutely love. We are not the creative types, but when the team came back with their ideas for the space we were blown away and now we have a more functional space that is worth every penny. We always recommend them to any of our friends thinking about starting a remodel project because we know the CH team will make sure that every detail is perfect. Other positives is that were open and honest with the cost and timeline so there were no surprises along the way and we felt fully informed about the entire process. Everyone on the team was excellent to work with and we would definitely use them again.

What Our Clients Think
We love Rusty and the Compelling Homes team. We first worked with them to turn an unfinished basement into a family area, bar, workout room. We had some pretty complex requests but they turned our unfinished basement into a fabulous rustic hangout space. Rusty has great ideas and is has an eye for details. They just completed an addition over our garage and it turned out awesome inside and out. We can not wait to work with them again on a new master bath and kitchen. I would never go anywhere else. They deliver what they promise and more. They take time to get to know you and make sure your personality shows up in the final product. Love them!!
