Residential Construction Services in Sequim
Your home should support the way you live today.
You may own an older property with a closed kitchen, small bathrooms, or rooms that no longer serve a clear purpose. You may need another bedroom, a larger living area, a private suite for family members, or an ADU that creates rental income.
You may also own land and want to build a custom home designed around your lifestyle and long-term plans.
CKS Builders LLC works with homeowners at different stages of the construction process. Some clients already have detailed plans. Others are beginning with a general idea and need help determining what may be possible.
Owner Steven Frerichs works directly with clients to review the property, discuss the desired result, and explain the steps that may be required before construction can begin.

Whole-Home Remodeling in Sequim
A whole-home remodel can improve how the entire property functions.
Many older homes were built with smaller, more divided rooms. The kitchen may be separated from the dining and living areas. Bathrooms may be too small for the current household. The laundry room may be inconveniently located, or an upstairs layout may waste valuable space.
CKS Builders LLC can help with whole-home remodeling that includes:
The goal is not simply to make the home look newer. The layout should make better use of the available space and reflect how the homeowner wants to live.
Home Additions in Sequim
A home addition can provide needed space without requiring you to move.
CKS Builders LLC can help homeowners plan additions such as:
A successful addition should feel connected to the original home. The roofline, windows, siding, interior trim, ceiling heights, and room transitions all affect whether the completed project feels intentional.
CKS Builders LLC considers how the new space will connect to the existing floor plan and how it will be used over time.
ADU Construction in Sequim
An accessory dwelling unit can create valuable secondary living space on the same property as a primary home.
Property owners may consider an ADU for:
CKS Builders LLC can help with attached and detached ADU projects, subject to the property, plans, utilities, permits, and applicable requirements.
A typical ADU may include:
Because ADUs are generally smaller than traditional homes, the layout needs to use space carefully. Kitchen placement, storage, bedroom privacy, bathroom access, and natural light all affect how comfortable the unit feels.
CKS Builders LLC helps clients evaluate these practical details before the project moves into construction.
Custom Home Construction in Sequim
Building a custom home allows you to create a property around your priorities rather than adapting to an existing floor plan.
CKS Builders LLC works with clients who already have plans and clients who are still developing their ideas.
Approximately 60 percent of the custom construction clients Steven has worked with began without completed plans. They knew they wanted to build but needed help understanding the steps required to move forward.
A custom home project may involve:
Steven reviews how the design will work in daily life. A floor plan may look good on paper but still create problems with kitchen workflow, furniture placement, storage, or room access.
Early construction input can help identify those concerns before they become expensive changes.
Kitchen Remodeling in Sequim
A kitchen remodel should improve how the room functions, not only how it looks.
CKS Builders LLC can help with kitchen remodeling that includes:
Many homeowners want to open the kitchen to the dining room or living area. This can improve natural light, create more room for seating, and allow the kitchen to feel connected to the rest of the home.
Not every wall can be removed without structural planning. Load-bearing walls may require engineering and new support.
CKS Builders LLC can help evaluate the existing space and coordinate the professionals required for structural work.
Bathroom Remodeling in Sequim
Bathroom remodeling often begins with a tub or shower that no longer works for the homeowner.
CKS Builders LLC can complete:
Many clients prefer a complete bathroom renovation rather than replacing a single fixture. The shower, vanity, flooring, lighting, and storage all affect how the room functions.
When the bathroom is part of a larger remodel, there may also be opportunities to relocate fixtures, expand the room, or create a new bathroom in another part of the home.
Carpentry and Home Improvements
CKS Builders LLC may also accept smaller residential projects based on the scope and current schedule.
These projects may include:
Steven's background in carpentry and finish work is an important part of the craftsmanship provided by CKS Builders LLC.
Experience Built Over a Lifetime in Construction
CKS Builders LLC was established in 2025, but Steven's experience began much earlier.
Steven grew up in the trades while his father operated a painting business in Crested Butte, Colorado. He became involved in the work at a young age and was running crews by approximately age 18.
After moving to Montana, Steven expanded into carpentry. He later worked in Alaska, where he managed crews and completed remodeling and custom construction projects.
After moving to the Olympic Peninsula, Steven spent approximately five years working with a high-end homebuilder and running construction crews.
Clients have appreciated Steven's knowledge, honesty, communication, craftsmanship, and ability to see possibilities within a property or floor plan.
Clear and Detailed Project Budgeting
Construction costs depend on the property, scope, materials, structure, and finish selections.
CKS Builders LLC usually begins with an initial conversation and a property visit. Steven learns about the project, reviews visible conditions, and discusses the homeowner's priorities.
For many remodeling projects, CKS Builders LLC can provide a preliminary budget range. This helps determine whether the proposed scope and available investment are reasonably aligned.
Once the client is serious about proceeding, Steven develops a more detailed estimate. He uses spreadsheets to explain the different project costs and clearly identifies overhead and profit instead of hiding those amounts within subcontractor pricing.
If the original plan does not fit the budget, CKS Builders LLC may be able to discuss alternatives. The project may be simplified, adjusted, completed in phases, or focused on the highest-priority work.
Communication Throughout the Project
CKS Builders LLC typically organizes routine communication through email.
This creates a written record of:
When a response is needed quickly, Steven contacts the homeowner by phone.
Clear communication is especially important on larger projects because one choice can affect several parts of construction. Cabinet selections may affect plumbing and electrical work. Window decisions may affect framing and exterior finishes. Wall removal may affect structure, flooring, and trim.
CKS Builders LLC helps keep those details connected and organized.
