The homeowners of a 1948 Silver Lake bungalow wanted their galley kitchen to open into the dining and living rooms without losing structural support they hadn't budgeted for. Our design-build team engineered a load-bearing beam solution during the estimating phase, so the final price never moved once construction started.
We removed the dividing wall, relocated plumbing for a new island, and matched the home's original 1940s trim profile in the new casework so the addition reads as original to the house.
A Highland Park family wanted a detached backyard unit for a parent moving in, with its own kitchen, bath, and entrance. We handled feasibility, structural engineering, and permitting through LA's ADU process, then framed and finished the unit while keeping the main house fully livable throughout.
The finished unit includes a full kitchenette, a walk-in shower, and a covered entry that matches the roofline of the primary residence.
This Angelino Heights Craftsman needed a full mechanical and electrical overhaul while preserving its original woodwork, built-ins, and window trim. We sequenced the renovation room by room so the owners could stay in part of the house through most of construction.
New systems went in behind original plaster and millwork wherever it could be preserved, and we matched replacement trim to the home's early-1900s profile where it couldn't.
