Whole-Home Remodeling in Westwood
Serving 90024 · 90025 and Bel Air, Brentwood, Century City
When the whole home needs to come together — open up the floor plan, redo the kitchen and baths, add a primary suite, refinish floors, modernize systems — coordination is everything. We do whole-home remodels with a single project manager, a single design vision, and a single construction team. No handoffs between three different contractors. Onn personally runs every full-home project.
Whole-Home Remodeling specifically for Westwood
Every neighborhood has its own architectural character, permit jurisdiction, and finish-level expectations. Here's how we approach whole-home remodeling in Westwood specifically.
Condo HOA realities
Most Westwood condos require HOA approval before construction starts. This adds 4–8 weeks to the timeline. We coordinate the HOA submission and answer their questions during their review.
Construction hours
Most condos limit construction to weekdays, 9 AM–5 PM. We schedule projects accordingly — slower than a single-family pace but predictable.
Single-family south of Wilshire
Standard mid-century homes here often have aging electrical, original plumbing, and tight footprints. We plan for systems modernization during any kitchen/bath project.
What's different about whole-home remodeling in Westwood
Westwood "full-home" usually means full-condo, not full-house
Most Westwood "full-home" remodel inquiries are large-scope condo renovations — full kitchen, baths, flooring, paint, electrical, HVAC — rather than SFR full-home rebuilds. Scope and process differ accordingly: condo full-renovations follow HOA approval workflows, building-engineering coordination, and LADBS permit; SFR full-home follows standard LADBS workflow. We diagnose the format in the first scope conversation.
Wilshire Corridor towers each have their own renovation rules
Each major Westwood high-rise has its own HOA documents, contractor-approval process, hours-of-work restrictions, freight-elevator scheduling, and noise-window limitations that affect renovation execution. The specific rules vary meaningfully between buildings. We coordinate with the building's management early to understand the specific rules before scheduling demolition or material deliveries, so the project doesn't hit avoidable schedule conflicts with the building's operating policies.
Westwood SFR-pocket full-home is a different project profile
Westwood SFR-pocket full-home remodels follow standard LADBS workflow without HOA constraints. The scope can include structural changes and additions depending on the parcel and client ambition. We don't conflate SFR-pocket scope with condo full-renovation scope despite both being called "full-home" — they're genuinely different projects with different permit paths and different execution workflows.
What we handle
Discovery & feasibility
Site walkthrough, structural assessment, what's realistic given your home's bones and your budget. We tell you what won't work before you fall in love with it.
Architectural design & permits
Full plans, structural engineering, energy compliance, permit submittals. Multi-room remodels almost always need a permit; we manage the process.
Structural & systems work
Wall removal, beam installation, foundation repair if needed, electrical service upgrade, HVAC, plumbing main runs, roof if relevant.
Kitchens, baths, and finishes
All the remodeling skills we bring to single-room projects, applied at scale. Cabinetry, tile, fixtures, finishes — coordinated across rooms for design consistency.
Project management
Weekly site meetings, milestone-based payment schedule, transparent change-order process. You always know where the project stands.
Pricing in Westwood
Typical LA whole-home remodel range. Lower end = cosmetic refresh + kitchen/bath. Higher end = structural redesign, primary suite addition, full systems modernization, and high-end finishes.
LADBS handles Westwood permits. Condo projects require HOA approval before permits — 4–8 weeks added timeline. Condos may also require additional fire-suppression review.

Frequently asked
How long does a whole-home remodel take? +
Cosmetic-level projects: 3–4 months. Heavy-structural projects (wall removal, primary suite addition, systems upgrade): 8–14 months. We give you a real timeline up front, not the optimistic one.
Do we need to move out? +
For most full-home remodels — yes, at least for the heaviest construction phase. We'll plan around your tenancy as much as possible, but living through wall removal and re-plumbing is rough on most families.
Do you work in condos? +
Yes — condo remodels are a regular part of our work. We coordinate HOA approvals, freight-elevator scheduling, weekday-only construction, and protect adjacent units.
How long does a Westwood condo kitchen take? +
Add 4–8 weeks to the standard kitchen timeline for HOA approval. Total project typically 5–7 months from first conversation to final walkthrough.
