Frequently asked questions

Typical full kitchen remodels in LA run $80,000–$250,000 depending on scope (cabinets only vs. layout change vs. structural work) and finish level (mid-range vs. high-end). We provide a clear, line-itemed quote tailored to your project — no one-size pricing.

Powder rooms run $15,000–$35,000. Standard bath remodels $35,000–$80,000. Primary suites with custom showers, freestanding tubs, and slab finishes run $80,000–$150,000+.

Detached ADU builds typically run $250,000–$450,000 all-in (design, permits, construction, finishes, utilities). Attached ADUs and JADU conversions of existing space run lower.

Varies by city and scope. LA City: 4–10 weeks. Beverly Hills: 3–6 weeks. Santa Monica: 4–8 weeks. Historic-zone or hillside properties trigger additional review and can run longer.
