About Us

Family owned. Cedar Valley grown.

We began as Nelson Home Repair serving Cedar Valley with general home maintenance, building and remodeling. As our local partnerships grew with other contractors, and our wonderful customers, we found that the most common requests we received were for bathroom and kitchen renovation. This was perfect because this is what we love to do!

Nelson Home Renovation believes homeowners in Cedar Falls, Waterloo, and across the Cedar Valley deserve a contractor who shows up on time, communicates clearly, and treats their home like it’s their own. It is our pleasure to get to work with you — designing and building kitchens and bathrooms for our neighbors across Cedar Falls, Waterloo, Janesville, Denver, Dike, Hudson, Waverly.

Kyle Nelson, Owner & Lead Contractor

Kyle Nelson

Owner & Lead Contractor

Kyle Nelson fell in love with home repair and renovation starting as a member of a team, during his college years, building homes in Mount Vernon, IA. Over the years he and his wife Katie renovated four family homes in the Cedar Valley and Corvallis, Oregon as they served in full time Christian Ministry on college campuses.

Their love for home renovation became a full-time role when Kyle founded Nelson Home Repair with a vision to provide home maintenance and general contracting for families in the Cedar Valley. As relationships grew, and the requests for kitchens and bathrooms kept coming in, Nelson Home Repair became Nelson Home Renovation, with a new focus on KItchen and Bath Renovation.

Every Nelson Home Renovation gets owner involvement from the first walkthrough to the final inspection. That’s the difference between a contractor and a trusted neighbor.
