Kitchen Remodeling
The kitchen is where most remodels start, and where most remodels stress-test a contractor. Cabinets, countertops, appliances, lighting, plumbing, electrical, and tile all have to land at the same time without conflicting. We sequence selections early so nothing holds up the install, build temporary kitchens where needed (microwave + induction burner + sink station), and finish most kitchen projects in 8–12 weeks.
What’s typically included: custom or semi-custom cabinetry, quartz or stone countertops, appliance install, tile/backsplash, plumbing fixtures, lighting, paint, hardwood or LVP flooring as needed. Most kitchens land between $60,000 and $180,000 depending on size, selections, and structural changes.
Bathroom Remodeling
A primary bath remodel is the second-most-common project we run. Tile, plumbing, electrical, ventilation, vanity, fixtures — done correctly, it’s a 4–8 week project. Done with the wrong contractor, it turns into 6 months because the tile setter, the plumber, and the electrician keep no-showing each other.
What we handle: full demo, waterproofing (the part most contractors cut corners on), tile install, custom or stock vanities, plumbing rough-in and fixture install, lighting, electrical, paint. Walk-in showers, soaking tubs, wet rooms, aging-in-place fixtures, and accessibility upgrades all available. Most primary baths land between $25,000 and $75,000.
Whole Home Remodeling
The biggest remodels — opening up living spaces, reworking floor plans, refinishing top to bottom — typically run 4–6 months and $250–$350 per square foot. We phase the work so you can stay in part of the house when possible, or coordinate the timeline if you need to relocate during construction.
A quick call to understand what you're remodeling, what you're working with, and what your timeline looks like.
We come to your home. Walk the space, take measurements, talk through the scope, look at structural and plumbing realities. You leave the meeting with a realistic budget range and clarity on what's possible.
For larger remodels, we move into a design phase: floor plans, finish selections, cabinetry, tile, fixtures, lighting. We work with our designers, or with yours if you have one. Selections lock before construction starts so the schedule doesn't stall waiting for a tile decision.
Demo, rough-in, finish work — typically 4–8 weeks for a single bath, 8–12 weeks for a kitchen, 4–6 months for a whole-home remodel. You get weekly site walkthroughs, daily updates through Houzz Pro, and one point of contact for the whole project.
We walk every detail with you, complete the punch list, professionally clean the home, and hand off a written 2-year workmanship warranty (5 years for luxury-tier projects).
Riverside has a wide range of housing stock. The 1970s tract homes in Orangecrest and La Sierra often have undersized electrical panels, original copper plumbing, and load-bearing walls in the middle of every “open concept” remodel request. The older homes in Wood Streets and Mission Heights have plaster, knob-and-tube electrical in some cases, and lath that has to be respected. The newer homes near Canyon Crest are usually fine structurally — but the HOAs care a lot about exterior changes.
We’ve worked on all of it. That context means when you describe what you want, we already know what the wall is hiding.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Josh, a contractor who facilitated the construction of our Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU), and I cannot express enough how seamless and enjoyable the entire process was. From the very beginning, Josh demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication that made the project feel not only manageable but also exciting. One of the standout aspects of working with Josh was his commitment to transparency. Throughout the project, he maintained open lines of communication, ensuring that I was always informed about timelines, costs, and any potential challenges. This transparency fostered a sense of trust and confidence, allowing me to make informed decisions without feeling overwhelmed. Josh’s meticulous approach to organization was evident in every phase of the construction. He took the time to clarify each step of the process, breaking it down into manageable parts. This structure was invaluable, especially for someone like me who was navigating the complexities of ADU regulations and construction for the first time. He also took the initiative to handle all necessary permits and inspections, further removing stress from my shoulders. What truly impressed me was Josh's attention to detail. From the very first consultation to the final walk-through, he ensured that every aspect of the ADU met our expectations and complied with local codes. He worked diligently with subcontractors, maintaining a high standard of workmanship. The result is a beautifully crafted space that perfectly suits our needs. One of the highlights of the experience was Josh’s proactive problem-solving attitude. When minor hiccups arose — as they often do in construction projects — he was quick to address them with solutions that I felt comfortable with. His calm demeanor made even the most challenging moments feel manageable, reinforcing my confidence in his abilities. In summary, my experience building an Additional Dwelling Unit with Josh as my contractor was nothing short of excellent. His combination of transparency, organization, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills made the entire project as stress-free as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Josh to anyone considering an ADU; you won’t just gain a contractor, but a partner who truly cares about delivering outstanding results. Thank you, Josh, for making our dream a reality!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
