Planning to host Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year’s in a home that isn’t working for your family or your guests? You’re not alone. Every year, homeowners across Morris County, New Jersey realize too late that their kitchen is too small, their living space is outdated, or their bathroom just can’t accommodate the holiday rush. If you’re thinking about home remodeling for the holidays, now is the time to start.
At JMC Home Remodeling, we help homeowners in Morristown, Parsippany, Chatham, Florham Park, Randolph, and surrounding North Jersey towns prepare their homes for the most joyful season of the year. From complete kitchen renovations to first-floor remodels, bathroom upgrades, and home additions, we make it possible to celebrate the holidays in a home that finally works for you.
Why Now Is the Time to Start Your Holiday Remodeling Project
Remodeling a home isn’t a one-week process. A successful renovation includes planning, design, product selection, permitting, material ordering, and construction. That can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months depending on the size and complexity of your project.
If you want to host family and friends in a finished, stress-free space this holiday season, planning your kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, or home addition in Morris County now is critical. Waiting until the fall often means construction may still be in progress by the time guests arrive.
With JMC’s proven design-build remodeling process, everything is streamlined under one roof. Our in-house team handles architecture, design, permitting, and construction, which saves time and eliminates the stress of juggling multiple contractors. But even with an efficient process, quality craftsmanship takes time.
That’s why we recommend starting your remodel no later than late summer or early fall if you want to be ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Top Holiday Remodeling Projects in Morris County
Whether you’re hosting a large family gathering or simply want your home to feel more welcoming and functional, the following projects are the most popular upgrades before the holidays:
1. Kitchen Remodeling
The kitchen is the heart of the home—and the hub of every holiday gathering. If your current kitchen is lacking counter space, storage, or an open layout, it can quickly feel overwhelming.
Our team helps homeowners in Denville, Mendham, Rockaway, and Madison design kitchens that are made for entertaining, including:
-
Enlarging kitchen layouts to improve flow

Adding large islands with seating
-
Upgrading appliances and lighting
-
Installing custom cabinetry with hidden storage solutions
-
Updating finishes for a modern, welcoming look
An updated kitchen isn’t just beautiful—it makes your home more functional and increases resale value.
2. Open Concept Living Spaces
Want to create a better connection between your kitchen, dining room, and living area? Removing walls and reconfiguring your first floor can completely change the way your home feels.
JMC can help you:
-
Remove non-load bearing walls
-
Install beams for structural support

Create a seamless transition between rooms

3. Guest Bathroom Remodels
An outdated or cramped bathroom can cause a lot of holiday stress, especially with overnight visitors.
Consider a guest bathroom upgrade with:
-
New vanities for storage
