Lennox has been here since 1879, and its housing stock shows it: established blocks of houses with solid frames that have stood through decades of South Dakota weather, alongside newer construction on the edges of town. What the older houses often haven't kept up with is how families live now — kitchens closed off from the living space, one bathroom serving a whole household, a basement that's never been finished. That's not a knock on the house. It's a work list.
It is usually a good list, too, because the structure is already there. The work is layout rather than building from scratch — a wall opened up, a second bathroom fitted into space that already exists, a basement that was left as storage turned into rooms that count.

Opening walls in a house from another era
The open layout people want most from an older home usually means removing walls, and in a house with some age that's structural work, not sledgehammer work. We draft in-house, so identifying which walls carry load, sizing the beam that replaces one, and getting the change permitted are part of the same job as building it. Opening walls is also the cheapest moment to fix what's hiding in them: wiring from a different era, thin or missing insulation in exterior walls, plumbing that's been weeping quietly. Finding that mid-remodel is normal in older houses; the difference is whether your contractor planned for the possibility or prices every surprise as a crisis.
Second bathrooms, finished basements, and the space you already own
The most common gap in an older Lennox house is capacity: one bathroom, no main-floor laundry, bedrooms short by one. Before jumping to an addition, we look at the space the house already has. A basement finish, a reworked floor plan, or a bathroom added where the plumbing can reach is usually the better first dollar, and because we handle drafting, the options get compared on paper before anything is committed. When an addition really is the answer, we build those too, with footings below the frost line and framing sized for snow load.

New wide-plank flooring run through a kitchen mid-remodel — laid tight to the existing oak cabinets and island. 
Basement finish mid-job — carpet down, drywall hung and mudded, the wet-bar run in, paint still to come. 
Framing a laundry room mid-remodel — new stud walls and a headered opening around the washer and dryer.

We had a great experience! Jace had great communication throughout and was responded in a timely manner. Jace and his team were trustworthy and we felt comfortable with them working in our house while we were away. Our finished basement turned out better than we had envisioned when we first decided to finish it. I’d highly recommend!
Stephanie S. · July 2026 · Basement finishing We hired Hols & Co to replace all our windows in our home. Jace kept us informed as to their timeframe and continued to show up everyday until the project was complete. I really appreciated having a contractor that stuck to their timeline and communicated well along the way. Their work was quality and I would highly recommend!
Beth M. · April 2026 · Window replacement From the start of our project to the end, Jace and his crew were fantastic! Communication was amazing, we always knew a timeline and estimated finish date. Love love love our new bathroom! Highly recommend!

Fair questions, straight answers.
Is it worth remodeling an older Lennox house, or should we start over?
Usually the house argues for keeping itself. Older frames in town are often sound, and a sound frame is the expensive part of a house. The real comparison is scope: we draft the options, price what the remodel actually requires, and if the structure can't carry what you want, we say so at the walkthrough. We take remodels in Lennox and on the acreages around town, with permits handled through the city or Lincoln County.
Can an older Lennox house handle an open floor plan?
Usually, yes. Most walls in an older house can be removed once the structure is understood: a load-bearing wall gets its load carried by a properly sized beam, and the change gets drafted and permitted before demolition starts. Hols & Co does its own drafting, so the structural plan and the build come from the same contractor. The walkthrough is where we look at what your house's frame will allow, and the written estimate reflects it.
