Jason Hammond — DIY remodel consultant

Software engineer by day.
DIY builder since age 12.

Over four decades I've gutted and rebuilt kitchens, finished basements from bare studs, converted attics into usable living space, and laid more flooring than I can count — all in my own homes, all without hiring a general contractor.

The name says it all: RE stands for Real Estate — your most valuable asset. Engineered is how I approach it. I use the same systematic thinking I apply to software to help homeowners RE-engineer their Real Estate the way I have mine.

Today I bring that experience to homeowners who want to do the work themselves — or who just want to understand what their contractor should be doing. My consulting gives you a custom plan tailored to your project, your budget, and your skill level. You'll know:

  • Exactly what to buy, and where to buy it for less
  • The right sequence — what goes first, what waits
  • Which mistakes turn a $20K remodel into a $40K one
  • When to DIY and when to hire out
