Remodel Nebraska

Specializing in Sunrooms that Change Lives

The minute you begin talking with Jack Rediger, owner of Remodel Nebraska, you are struck by his passion and enthusiasm for his work. The company defines “remodel” as “to reconstruct; to improve or enhance.” They do many types of remodeling, but they specialize in the construction of sunrooms. According to Jack, these additions quite literally change people’s lives for the good.

“We recently had an older client who, because of age and physical limitations, could no longer garden and do yard work as she used to do,” Jack shares. “She missed getting out and just experiencing the color and majesty of her yard, and you could see depression was starting to sink in. We met with her and designed a wonderful sunroom, and she absolutely is a different person.”

Remodel Nebraska provides a free estimate and designs the addition with your family lifestyle in mind. “Many companies use kits or pre-packaged products,” Jack notes. “We design a space that is uniquely yours.”

Once the design is locked in, Jack’s teams handle everything—applying for a permit, purchasing materials, and the construction of the addition. “I have six crews. They are committed to excellence and take a great deal of pride in their work. We are experienced, licensed and insured, and committed to customer satisfaction.”

Jack’s family’s business is actually car sales; his grandfather, father, and brother have all run the family dealership in Milford, Nebraska. Jack, on the other hand, had visions of being an eye doctor and went to study at UNL. At school, he met a real estate developer, whose career intrigued him. “I began working in real estate and learning construction,” Jack recalls. “I even did sales and management training for a while, but a family member got ill, and I needed to travel less.” Someone showed Jack a sunroom and explained how much joy it brought them. He decided to give the industry a try. The results so far, 23 years and 2,000 sunrooms.

Remodel Nebraska offers a unique product with their all-season room. This space is comparable to an addition on the house. Typically, there is no wall or separation between the all-season room and the rest of the home. This space has floor-to-ceiling windows that flow with the rest of the house for an aesthetically pleasing addition. “We are the only company in this market to offer a custom-designed all-season room that is energy efficient enough to open the wall between the house and the sunroom,” Jack says. “It brings outdoor living into the house without worrying about the weather or temperature. It’s a real game-changer!”

The company also offers a three-season room. This addition features floor-to-ceiling windows with the option of doors to the outside. It is attached to the home like a porch and can be enjoyed during most seasons. Remodel Nebraska also offers decks, patio covers, windows, and more.

Seeing his customers’ happy faces and how a beautiful sunroom can change a lifestyle is truly rewarding, Jack says. “I have a client in Elkhorn who can now have a cup of coffee and experience the beauty and grandeur of the valley below…all without stepping outside.” These home extensions, Jack asserts, add value to the home and increase quality of life for the homeowners.

Jack and his team take the time to educate their clients on what is required for this type of project. “Pricing depends on the intricacies of the design, whether energy accommodations will be included, and other engineering needs,” Jack explains. Obtaining permits and materials can take up to 10 weeks. Once everything is in hand, the actual construction usually takes two weeks. The company typically has 50 to 60 jobs in the queue, so clients should schedule well in advance of when they plan to begin enjoying their new room.

Remodel Nebraska finds most of their clients through referrals from other satisfied clients. One client says, “I want to say how much we enjoy our sunroom. The way it has changed our home, and our lives, is amazing. We couldn’t image life without the space!” Another client marvels about the construction team. “Your attention to detail, your thought process on how to solve issues, your communication skills…I could go on and on. As a crew, your representation of Jack Rediger and Remodel Nebraska is outstanding. We are truly blessed to have been referred to Jack and his company.” Remodel Nebraska has been Omaha’s Choice and Best of Omaha for several consecutive years. They also continue to win the Presidents Award for Continued Excellence, from their manufacturer, which is a national award.
