Z Construction & Remodeling LLC paints and remodels homes in Opelika, Alabama (10–15 minutes from its Auburn base), in English or Spanish. Typical 2026 ranges here: interior painting from $1,800, kitchens $8,000–$80,000, bathrooms $6,000–$48,000 and cabinet painting $3,500–$12,000.
Nearly half of Opelika's houses were built before 1990, so a lot of our work here is bringing solid older homes up to date: kitchens and baths, exterior paint with real rot repair, porches, and replacing worn carpet with LVP. Newer neighborhoods like National Village bring cabinet painting, upgrades and additions.
Opelika also has the largest share of Spanish-speaking families in Lee County, and many families relocating for the area's manufacturing employers. We serve both: every estimate and conversation can be in English or Spanish.

Permits: Opelika Building Inspection Division
Opelika requires plans and permits for construction, plus separate electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits. Plan review typically takes 3–4 business days and the permit card must be posted on site. We handle all of it with Public Works (710 Fox Trail).
Historic districts
Exterior changes in the Northside, Downtown and Geneva Street historic districts need a Certificate of Appropriateness. We match original trim, siding and porch details and prepare the application.
Older-home surprises
Pre-1990 homes can hide rot, galvanized plumbing or outdated wiring. We look before we price and tell you what we find before we fix it.
Exterior paint that lasts
Brick ranches and wood-sided homes here take a beating from sun and humidity. We wash, scrape, replace rotten wood and use coatings made for this climate.
