Remodeling in Santa Monica
What is different about remodeling in Santa Monica?
Santa Monica is its own city, and its building standards are some of the most demanding in California. A remodel here has to be designed to those standards from the start, or plan check will send it back. Permits go through the City of Santa Monica, which has energy and green-building requirements beyond the state baseline. Near the beach there is also coastal review.
Housing ranges from Craftsman bungalows north of Montana to mid-century houses toward Sunset Park, mostly on small walkable lots where square footage is tight. We remodel kitchens and primary suites around cabinets from our own workshop, build additions that fit tight setbacks, and update older houses to meet the city's performance rules while keeping their character.
Services in Santa Monica
What we do for Santa Monica homes.
Kitchen remodeling in Santa Monica
Condo kitchens in Santa Monica often can't move plumbing, so the layout has to work around the existing wet wall. Custom cabinets get the most out of a fixed footprint.
Bathroom remodeling in Santa Monica
In condos, bathroom work often comes with HOA rules on working hours, noise and waterproofing. We document the waterproofing before tile goes in, which protects you and the neighbors below.
Whole-home remodeling
We remodel whole houses and condos as a single project, run by one project manager at a fixed price.
Room additions
Primary suites, family rooms and second stories, framed and finished to match the existing house.
ADU construction
Detached ADUs, garage conversions and JADUs, from the first site visit through final inspection.
Custom cabinetry
Kitchen cabinets, vanities, closets and built-ins, made to measure in our own workshop and installed by our crew.
