A personal approach to improving your home.
Founded by Yerry and Milesa Balenzuela, ModExt Construction is a veteran-owned, family-operated exterior remodeling company based in Virginia Beach. Our Navy background informs how we plan, communicate, and pay attention to the details.
We help homeowners connect the way they want to live with a practical plan for their property. That means comparing designs and materials, discussing the budget, and working through the construction requirements before the build begins.
