Your Design-Build Remodeling Team in Sunnyvale

Our office is on Lakeway Drive, so Sunnyvale isn’t a market we drive out to. It’s home. We’ve been remodeling Bay Area homes since 2012, family-owned the whole way, licensed and insured. Look up our CSLB number before you hire us, or anyone else.

You’ll see the finished space before we build it. Cabinet fronts, tile, where the afternoon light lands: it all gets modeled in 3D, and nothing gets ordered until you’ve looked at it and said yes. Our designers and our crews work for the same company, so when a detail needs sorting out, there’s nobody to chase and nobody to blame.

Why Sunnyvale Homeowners Hire Us

What you get when the contractor’s office is in your own city.

One Contract, One Team

You hire us once. We draw it, permit it, and build it. No coordinating between an architect, a designer, and a builder who each blame the other two when the schedule slips.

Your Remodel in 3D First

A realistic model of the room you’re paying for, before we order a cabinet or open a wall. Change the tile. Move the island. Try the darker floor. At that stage it costs you nothing.

One Room or the Whole House

A single bathroom, a kitchen, a second story, a detached ADU, or a renovation that touches every room in the place. Same crew, same standard, either way.

Based in Sunnyvale

We’re in town, not a call center in another county with a local number pointed at it. Most of our projects sit in the South Bay, close enough that showing up isn’t a logistics problem.

A Project Manager Who Stays

One manager runs your job from the first consultation through the punch list. One name, one number, and someone who already knows your project’s history when you call.

Licensed, Bonded, Insured

CSLB #1068557, Class B general building contractor. California requires a license for any job over $500 in labor and materials. Ask every contractor you’re considering for theirs.

What We Do

Remodeling Services We Offer in Sunnyvale

What we build for Sunnyvale homeowners, indoors and out.

Kitchen Remodeling

Cabinets, counters, islands, and a layout built around how you cook and who’s standing in the room while you do it. Kitchens are our forte.

Bathroom Remodeling

Curbless showers, double vanities, tub-to-shower conversions, and tile that still looks right ten years in. Primary baths and powder rooms both.

Learn More →

Room Additions

An extra bedroom, a home office with a door that closes, more living space, or a full second story. We start with what your lot and your foundation will carry.

Learn More →

Home Remodeling

Whole-house renovations, including the parts nobody photographs: rewiring, repiping, structural work, and the permits that come attached to all of it.

Learn More →

Deck Builders

Decks, patios, and outdoor rooms. Built for a climate that lets you use the backyard most of the year, out of materials that hold up to being outside in it.

Learn More →

ADU Construction

Detached ADUs and junior ADUs under 500 square feet. Rental income, a relative who needs their own front door, or an office that isn’t the spare bedroom. City paperwork is ours.

Remodeling Built for Sunnyvale Homes

What It Takes to Remodel a Sunnyvale Home

Most houses here are postwar ranch: three bedrooms, twelve hundred square feet, a kitchen with a wall around it. That wall is usually the first thing we take out.

The Eichlers are the exception. Sunnyvale has about 1,100 of them across sixteen tracts, including Fairbrae, Rancho Verde, Fairwood, and pockets of Cherry Chase. Those neighborhoods carry city design guidelines covering rooflines and windows, and we design inside them.

How It Works

What Happens After You Call Us

Consultation

We come to the house, measure, listen, and give you a straight read on what your budget covers. Costs nothing.

Design & Planning

Layouts, materials, fixtures, and a scope written down in enough detail that nobody argues about it in month three.

3D Rendering

We model the space and hand it to you. This is the cheapest point in the whole project to change your mind, so use it.

Permits & Construction

We file with the city, pull the permits, and build. You get a schedule and a project manager who keeps it current.

Final Walkthrough

We go through the finished job together and write down anything that isn’t right. Then we fix it, and only then is it done.

Recent Remodels, Before and After

Two of these sit in Sunnyvale and Cupertino. The third is up the Peninsula in Burlingame. Photographed as they were, before and after.

Sunnyvale Bathroom Remodel

An oversized drop-in tub was eating half the floor. It’s gone. In its place: a glass-walled walk-in shower, a floating wood vanity under a quartz counter, an LED mirror, and large-format gray tile that keeps the grout lines to a minimum.

Cupertino Kitchen Remodel

A dated kitchen stripped back and rebuilt: new cabinetry, new counters, new lighting, and a much brighter room at the end of it.

Burlingame Home Addition

More square footage on an existing house, with the new framing, roofline, and exterior finished to match what was already standing.

Reviews From Sunnyvale and Around the Bay

FAQ

Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in Sunnyvale?

Not for countertops or cabinet refacing. You do need one to replace the cabinets themselves, and moving a wall or window sends the plans through the One-Stop Permit Center at City Hall. We file either way.

Can I build an ADU on my lot in Sunnyvale?

That comes down to your lot size, your setbacks, and how much is already built on it. We check what the property allows before drawing anything, then carry the permits and code compliance.

Can you remodel an Eichler?

Sunnyvale has about 1,100 of them across sixteen tracts. They come with radiant heat in the slab, post-and-beam framing, and city design guidelines covering rooflines and window replacements. We price all of that in before we start.

How long will my remodel take?

Depends on scope. A full-home renovation usually runs three to six months of construction, and a single bathroom is far shorter. City plan review comes first either way.

How much do you take up front?

California caps it at $1,000 or 10% of the contract price, whichever is less. We don’t ask for more. Everything after that tracks work completed, on a schedule written into your contract.

How do I get started?
