Remodeling and custom homes across the Metro East.
From our shop in Swansea, the Padgett family builds kitchens, baths, basements, additions, and custom homes for families all over the Illinois Metro East. Same family, same standard, no shortcuts, wherever your home is.
Which Metro East towns does Padgett serve?
Padgett Building & Remodeling serves eleven Metro East towns from its Swansea shop at 4200 Smelting Works Rd, including Belleville, O’Fallon, and Edwardsville. Family-owned since 1992, the same crew handles kitchens, baths, basements, additions, and custom homes across St. Clair and Madison counties, start to finish.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, St. Clair County counts more than 250,000 residents, and neighboring Madison County adds roughly a quarter-million more. Most homes across the corridor were built decades ago, which is why so many of our neighbors call for updated kitchens, baths, and finished basements.
Town pages built for where you live.
Four of the towns we work in most have their own page, with local detail on the homes, the neighborhoods, and the work we do there.
Swansea, IL →
Our home base at 4200 Smelting Works Rd. Kitchens, baths, basements, additions, and custom homes, run by the family down the street.
Belleville, IL →
The St. Clair County seat, right next door. Older, established homes that call for sensitive kitchen, bath, and basement work.
O’Fallon, IL →
A fast-growing town near Scott AFB. Custom homes and additions for families putting down long-term roots.
Edwardsville, IL →
Our Madison County reach. Full-service kitchen and bath remodels with one accountable contractor, not a design-studio handoff.
