Celebrating Excellence

NDR Wins Remodeler of the Year Award for Unmatched Craftsmanship

We are honored to be named NARI’s 2025 Remodeler of the Year in the Southwest Region for our Frisco Historic Rail District renovation project. Winning a NARI RotY Award is a significant achievement in our industry, particularly given this year's competition, with 477 entries valued at over $192 million in renovation budgets.

Unlike some awards that rely on financial contributions, this NARI award is genuinely based on the criteria evaluated by judges. To maintain anonymity, you cannot include your logo, company name, or any details in your submission that would reveal the identity of the work's creator. 

Judges evaluate several factors, including the remodeler's commitment to excellence, the extent to which the home's functionality and aesthetics were improved, and the demonstration of superior craftsmanship.

Little did we know that the home highlighted in January’s blog, A Labor of Love, would be the project for which we won Remodeler of the Year. Read more about our transformation of this 1940's home in the Historic Rail District of Frisco, TX.

What does winning Remodeler of the Year involve? 

While the award is based on excellence and superior craftsmanship, achieving this prestigious award does not mean perfection or a flawless experience by any means. Every renovation presents its own unique set of challenges and hurdles. Disappointments and frustrations are common during the process. As we often say, renovating is not for the faint of heart. As one of our competitors aptly puts it, renovating is not pretty. At least not until the project is complete. Then it should be more than lovely; we hope it is breathtaking. 

The goal of this project was to create a timeless look grounded in a warm color palette, featuring elements of biophilic design and contemporary luxury. Given that the home is situated in a charming, historic front porch community, it was essential to bring the outdoors inside. This was accomplished by adding a spacious front porch with a sitting area, incorporating large windows throughout the home, and providing a deck in the tranquil backyard surrounded by grand, old trees. 

Excellence also involves understanding your clients’ needs- more precisely, their dreams. This is particularly important given North Dallas Renovations' focus on luxury and full-home remodeling, as well as design-build services. Allowing our clients the time to dream and visualize —whether by creating mood boards, gathering inspirational photos, or working closely with a designer — is essential. 

For us, excellence means creating a home that our clients love to return to.

Your TEAM matters.

Winning the Remodeler of the Year award is a testament to the incredible dedication and hard work of our team. At the heart of this success is our outstanding collaboration with our architectural partner, Bob Durrant, whose visionary designs perfectly shaped this home. Our dedicated project and construction managers, crew, and subcontractors brought our vision to life. Their commitment to superior craftsmanship and unwavering attention to detail ensures that every project meets and exceeds our exceptionally high standards.
