We're based in San Jose, which means we know the housing stock ā from Willow Glen bungalows to Almaden Valley ranch homes ā and the city's permitting process, first-hand.
San Jose isn't one housing type ā it's a patchwork of eras and layouts, and the right remodel approach depends on which part of the city you're in.
Craftsman-era bungalows with small original kitchens ā most projects here involve opening a wall into an adjacent dining or family room.
1970sā80s larger-footprint homes, often with kitchens that already have decent square footage but dated cabinetry and lighting.
Mid-century ranch homes on generous lots ā good candidates for island additions since floor plans are often already open.
Newer construction (1990sā2000s) with larger kitchens ā remodels here tend to focus on finish upgrades over layout changes.
Older bungalow and cottage-style homes near downtown, similar constraints to Willow Glen with smaller original footprints.
Mix of older ranch homes and newer townhome-style construction near the BART extension corridor.
Yes ā we're based here and file permits directly with the City of San Jose Planning, Building and Code Enforcement department for any plumbing, electrical or structural work.
Older homes (Willow Glen, Rose Garden) often have knob-and-tube wiring or galvanized plumbing that needs updating during a remodel ā we flag this during the design phase, not mid-construction.
All of them ā Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Cambrian Park, Evergreen, Rose Garden, Berryessa and beyond.
