Everett, United States, October 4, 2026 -- Alta Group Remodeling CEO Leo Lutskov Explains Why AI Cannot Replace an Experienced Remodeling Professional
Alta Group Remodeling CEO Leo Lutskov says artificial intelligence can help with research and analysis, but remodeling decisions still require experienced professionals who can evaluate a project, ask the right questions, and take responsibility for the outcome.
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 4, 2026 — Alta Group Remodeling CEO Leo Lutskov says artificial intelligence has become a useful tool for research and analysis in construction, but it should support experienced professionals rather than replace their judgment.
Alta Group Remodeling uses AI internally as a research and analytical tool. Lutskov said team members use AI assistants to work through information, analyze data, and support different roles within the company, but he does not expect the technology to replace the people responsible for making and carrying out construction decisions.
Lutskov’s broader point is that remodeling decisions depend on conditions that exist inside the home, not only on information written in a proposal. During a project review, a contractor may need to evaluate framing loads, electrical capacity, plumbing routes, water supply, existing materials, and other conditions that can change the scope of the work. AI can help organize available information, but it cannot independently perform that physical evaluation.
Lutskov said professional judgment also includes deciding whether a project makes sense for the homeowner in the first place. Alta Group Remodeling’s consultations can include looking at the homeowner’s goals, the property, the neighborhood, the planned investment, and the long-term use of the home. In some cases, Lutskov said the company will advise a client not to move forward with a project rather than try to close the sale.
“We have clients we do not close,” Lutskov said. “We come in, do an evaluation or consultation, look at the options, and sometimes we honestly tell people, ‘You should not do this.’”
Lutskov said experienced judgment becomes especially important when conditions discovered on site change the original plan. The contractor must determine what those conditions mean for the scope, cost, and next steps, and explain those decisions to the homeowner.
“AI cannot replace experienced judgment and accountability in remodeling,” Lutskov said. “It can help us process information and evaluate options, but someone still has to understand the project, make the decision, and be responsible for the outcome.”
For homeowners, the practical benefit is better planning before construction begins. AI can help the team review information and compare options, while an experienced remodeling professional can determine what applies to the actual home, explain the tradeoffs, and take responsibility for the decisions made throughout the project. Homeowners planning a complex renovation can contact Alta Group Remodeling to discuss the project before construction begins.

As more young couples say yes to lab-grown, are natural diamonds losing their sparkle?
At the end of the day, it all comes down to price. That is why Pat Chung prefers lab-grown diamonds. The 36-year-old Hongkonger says they are much cheaper than a natural diamond for the same quality and size and they are easier to source. “I searched for the exact colour, size and shape that I wanted and sent it to my jeweller,” Chung says, adding that more people are opting for lab-grown diamonds compared to a decade ago.

I grew up eating bowls of Chinese migration history. You?
The dining table disappeared beneath a lavish procession of dishes. Our family took food seriously. It was sacred, even. Dinner was never merely about eating. It was the one time each day when everyone was expected to gather, regardless of schedules, moods or whatever else the world demanded outside that room. At the centre sat the pièce de résistance: a whole steamed fish, usually sea bass, topped with ribbons of ginger and spring onion in a fragrant pool of oil and soy sauce. Alongside it were...
How China’s macabre practice of human sacrifice in burials came to an end

Around royal tombs, the remains of people – who appear to have been killed specifically to follow their masters into the afterlife – lie alongside precious objects and weapons. A new study from Egypt has brought this practice back into the news. At the ancient royal cemetery of Abydos, archaeologists re-examined the skulls of people buried around the tombs of...
