Los Angeles Home Remodeling

The most obvious reason to invest in upgrading your home is for the personal comfort and convenience of you and your family. But also consider that you can increase safety levels, prevent more expensive repairs down the road, boost energy efficiency, and increase the resale value of your home by making key home renovations. Your home is most likely the biggest investment you will make in life, and it only makes sense to keep that investment in top condition rather than letting it deteriorate. Besides enjoying remodeling upgrades yourself, you can often later recoup them (in whole or in part) should you ever relocate.

At Los Angeles Home Remodeling, we are committed to excellence in everything we do for every customer we serve, from the smallest jobs to the biggest. We will make the home remodeling process as quick, convenient, and affordable as possible and will always remember that "the customer is our boss."

From job's beginning to job's end, from design to prep work to the finishing touches, we keep you informed and let you make the decisions. We always give you a "customized" experience, keeping all renovations in line with your "game plan" and desired ambiance.

At Los Angeles Home Remodeling, we have licensed, experienced architects and design experts on staff who can help guide you through the design stage. We can even draw up for you a blueprint for major home renovations that would require one. And we have advanced design software that can give you a visual "preview" of what your remodeled space will look like.

We understand that you have ideas and plans as to how you want to design specific rooms of your house, and we also understand that you likely are working within a limited budget. We can help you find the most effective and cost-effective ways to accomplish all of your goals and fit your remodeling efforts into your home's overall style and ambiance.

Los Angeles County, the City of Los Angeles, and other localities in the area all have their own peculiar building codes, permit rules, and other regulations. These can be quite challenging for the uninitiated to understand much less deal with on their own. 

We can handle all of the permitting and regulatory matters for you. At Los Angeles Home Remodeling, we are familiar with all relevant local regulations and know what is needed to keep your remodel job "to code." 

You don't have a lot of extra time to spend researching building codes, running to and from city hall to get permits, and taking care of similar tasks. We understand that. We do it for you so that you don't have to.

Yes. Our construction and remodeling staff at Los Angeles Home Remodeling is 100% licensed, bonded, and insured. We carry all relevant California contractor's licensing to cover all of the diverse services we offer and all of the remodeling skills possessed by our staff.

We protect our reputation and our customers by carrying liability, workman's comp, and other forms of insurance. And we follow strict safety protocols to make it as unlikely as possible that we would ever have to actually file a claim with our insurer. The last thing any homeowner wants is a contractor getting injured on his/her premises during a job. We always put safety first to make sure that doesn't happen.

And we always put the safety of you and your family first too. We are careful where, when, and how we set up our tools and make sure everyone knows when and where we are at work. And we always clean up the job site to ensure no safety hazards are posed by construction debris or power tools.

We at Los Angeles Home Remodeling respect your time. We will work with you to find the best day and time of day to schedule the remodeling project. And we will be prompt to arrive punctually and will work efficiently and consistently until the project is 100% completed.

Many remodeling jobs can be completed in a single day (or less), but obviously, larger, more involved projects will require additional time. When we give you an initial estimate of the cost, we can also give you a reasonable estimate of the time it will take to complete your remodel project. 

When your remodeling work is 100% indoors, there is no reason why foul weather need affect the project's completion date. But decks, patios and enclosures, installation of new windows/doors, and additions that would require opening up a wall could all be affected by weather, to a degree.

Our staff at Los Angeles Home Remodeling is used to working in varied and even intense weather conditions, however, rain and high winds can sometimes cause delays or simply slow down progress a bit. But we will always complete the job in as little time as possible while still delivering conscientious, top-quality workmanship.

Demolition and prep work is as important a part of any remodeling job as new installation and construction. We will include demolition in our initial estimates and in our original project completion projections.

Our demolition crew will be both thorough and careful. Especially with older homes, you have to exercise great care to not damage surrounding and adjacent parts of the house when doing demo work. And safety gear and procedures are also particularly important during demolition efforts.

We will lay down protective tarps to catch debris, use magnets or scour the scene thoroughly to pick up every last stray nail or staple, vacuum up "demo dust," and 100% remove all demo trash from your home. We can also remove it from your premises in our company trucks or deposit it into a rented dumpster, depending on the size and nature of the project.

For decades, and well beyond the date when asbestos was first discovered to be potentially harmful to human health, asbestos construction materials were used in California and L.A. Area homes. Most newer homes will not have any trace of asbestos in them, but many older homes may.

It may occasionally happen that asbestos containing insulation (like vermiculite) or other asbestos containing products will be discovered in your home's walls or ceilings during a demo job. If so, we will dispose of it in a safe, efficient manner and in accordance with all California and local asbestos regulations.

We will never use asbestos containing products that might be dangerous in new construction and remodeling work. And it is only relatively rarely that asbestos becomes an issue at all. But rest assured that our staff will know how to handle it if asbestos should surface in any form. 

Sometimes, a homeowner may have begun a home improvement project him or herself but then ran out of time to finish it. Or, another contractor may not have finished a job (for a variety of possible reasons.) Or, it could even be that you just bought a new home where a certain project was only partially completed when you moved in.

While beginning a job mid-way does require a little extra effort in making the estimate and matching the materials, we at Los Angeles Home Remodeling do not shy away from such projects. We understand that these kinds of situations will happen occasionally, and we will be more than happy to assist you with them.

While our services are in high demand and it is possible that we would have to schedule your project or repair at least several days ahead (depending on the season and busyness level), yet, we also understand the need for more urgent work and will accommodate you in this regard to the fullest of our ability.

We can work with you to prioritize your project as much as possible and to complete it quickly, while still giving you the full benefit of our craftsmanship. If you have an urgent or emergency level need, please contact us and we will find a way to help you without any unnecessary delay.

During your free, no-obligation consultation, we can assess the basic nature of your desired remodeling work and begin to move toward an estimate of the time and expense it would take to complete it.

We may well have to come to your home and inspect the actual site where the remodeling work would take place to give you a more detailed estimate and timetable, but even over the phone, if you give us a good idea of what you are planning to have done, we can give you a basic idea on what to expect.

You may have specific materials or brands you want us to use, a specific target date you want to keep to, or a particular budget you need to stay within. We can take in all you share with us of your "vision" and begin to break down what it will take to make that vision become a reality.

We can also set up a date to inspect your home and give you a closer estimate during the consultation. And we can give you examples of what other homeowners did on similar projects and help you "flesh out" your plan with the benefit of our longtime remodeling experience.

Our office is located in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Tarzana, in the San Fernando Valley. And while Tarzana really is named after the character Tarzan based on its being the location of Tarzan author Edgar Rice Burroughs' ranch, it is centrally located and not at all "off in the jungle."

Thus, we service the whole L.A. Area from our Tarzana headquarters. This includes nearby towns like Encino, Hidden Hills, Reseda, and Van Nuys. But it also includes regions further afoot like Simi Valley, Burbank, Pasadena, Glendale, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and downtown L.A.

In fact, we even serve clients scattered more widely in various parts of Southern California. We stand ready to assist you if you live anywhere in the region and have any kind of home remodeling job you need help with.

We cannot promise to do all financing in-house, but we can consider each customer's needs and work to find a way to secure financing for them. We may, for example, be able to help you arrange a home remodeling loan with a local bank. Or, we may be able to get you qualified for special government incentive programs that will cut down on costs.

And we can also help you to afford the remodel job by showing you how to do the project for less or by giving you plenty of time to pay the bill. We also accept multiple forms of payment, including all major credit cards.

And you may also be able to better afford a major home renovation by breaking up the big project into smaller ones and scheduling each one sufficiently apart.

Do not hesitate to contact us and to ask about financing and how we may be able to help you to more easily pay for your remodeling job. We will do everything we can to work with you to get your project scheduled.
