Home remodeling & additions, done by one accountable team

A remodel should not mean six phone numbers and a job site nobody owns. Guillen Construction runs your kitchen, bathroom, whole-home remodel, or addition with our own crews across the trades that matter — demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, and finish — so the schedule holds and one contractor answers for the result.

Remodels & Additions — Guillen Construction

We work across the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, and Orange County, and we handle the unglamorous parts too: engineering, permits, and inspections. You get a written scope and a milestone payment schedule before we swing a hammer.

Remodels & Additions

What's included

Kitchen remodels

Layout changes, cabinets, counters, lighting, and appliances — including moving walls, gas, and plumbing the right way, with permits.

Bathroom remodels

Full gut renovations, tub-to-shower conversions, waterproofing done to spec, and tile work our crews stand behind.

Whole-home remodels

Open up floor plans, replace aging systems, and modernize the whole house under one contract and one schedule.

Room additions

Bedrooms, family rooms, and primary suites — foundation to finish, matched to the existing house so it never looks bolted on.

Second-story additions

Engineering, shoring, framing, and full build-out when the lot can't grow outward but the family already has.

Design, engineering & permits

Plans, structural calcs, Title 24, and city plan check handled for you — we deal with the building department so you don't.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot

How long does a kitchen or bathroom remodel take?

Once permits are issued and materials are on hand, most kitchens run 6–10 weeks and most bathrooms 3–5 weeks. We build the schedule into your contract and tell you immediately if anything moves it.

Do I need permits for my remodel?

If the work touches structure, plumbing, gas, or electrical — yes. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and build to pass them. Unpermitted work becomes your problem at sale or refinance time, so we don't do it.

Can we live in the house during the work?

Usually, yes. We phase the work, seal off dust, and keep water and power running each night. For whole-home remodels we'll tell you honestly which weeks will be rough.

How do payments work?

California law caps the down payment on home improvement work at $1,000 or 10%, whichever is less — and that's exactly how we contract. After that you pay for completed milestones, never ahead of the work.
