Kitchen Remodeling in Los Angeles and Orange County

The most common request we hear in older LA homes is to open a closed kitchen to the family room. Sometimes the wall is non-structural and comes out cleanly. Often it carries roof or ceiling load and needs a beam, posts, and engineering. We check the framing before you commit to a layout, so the design matches what the structure allows. Larger layout changes across the house fall under interior renovations.

Swapping cabinets and counters in place is simpler. Moving a sink, adding a gas line, adding circuits, or removing a wall requires permits in the City of Los Angeles and in Orange County cities. New kitchen lighting generally needs to meet California's Title 24 efficiency requirements, and appliances often need dedicated circuits that older panels cannot support. KR pulls the permits and coordinates each inspection so the work is on record when you sell.

A kitchen remodel is often the start of a larger plan. Some homeowners add square footage with a kitchen and family room addition. Others roll the kitchen into a whole-home remodel so the plumbing and electrical upgrades happen once. If you are building an ADU, we can plan its kitchen alongside yours.
