Remodeled white kitchen with a marble island, brass pendants and herringbone oak floor in San Rafael
Remodeling in San Rafael

San Rafael has every kind of house, from older homes near downtown to mid-century ranches in the valleys, and each one brings its own surprises once the walls open. We remodel kitchens, bathrooms and whole homes here, and we walk you through what may turn up before demolition starts.

The kitchen at the top of our homepage is a San Rafael job: white shaker cabinets, a marble island, brass pendants and a herringbone oak floor. A few more photos from that kitchen are below.

Permits through the City of San Rafael

San Rafael runs its own Building Division, separate from Marin County. Small jobs like a window replacement can use the city’s online minor permit, while kitchen, bath and structural work goes through plan review. We prepare and file the paperwork for you.

Older homes, honest estimates

Older San Rafael houses often hide original wiring, galvanized pipes and uneven subfloors. We tell you up front what may turn up and how it would be priced, so a surprise behind the wall doesn’t become a surprise on the bill.

What demolition often reveals

Kitchens that work for how you cook

Most of our San Rafael calls are kitchens. We help with the layout, cabinets and counters, and handle the electrical and plumbing behind them, including a panel upgrade when the new appliances need one.

Questions

San Rafael remodeling: questions

Do I need a permit for a kitchen or bathroom remodel in San Rafael?

Usually, yes. The City of San Rafael Building Division issues permits for remodels inside city limits. Some small jobs qualify for an online minor permit; kitchens, baths and anything structural go through plan review. We handle the filing.

What does a remodel usually cost?

Most of our kitchen remodels run $25,000 to $60,000. Most of our bathroom remodels run $15,000 to $50,000. Whole-home remodels usually run $200,000 to $500,000. Your consultation gives you a number for your actual project.

How long does a typical remodel take?

It depends on the scope. Smaller remodels may take a few weeks, while larger projects can run two to six months. You get a clear timeline with your estimate.

Can I stay in my home during the remodel?

In many cases, yes. We plan work zones to keep disruption down. For bigger projects, we can talk through temporary arrangements.

Is the consultation free?

Yes. We come to your home, look at the space and talk through scope and budget before we put together an estimate.
