Home Remodeling in Pasadena

Home remodeling in Pasadena usually means a house from 1910 to 1960 that needs new systems and a better layout. That usually means old or undersized wiring, galvanized plumbing, and a kitchen cut off from the rest of the house. We plan the whole thing as one job under one City of Pasadena permit. Walls that should come down get an engineer. Original details worth keeping, like built-ins, wood windows, and fireplaces, stay. Our Pasadena townhouse job got a new kitchen and new flooring through the whole home, and that is the kind of multi-room work we run here.

Systems first, finishes second

In a pre-war Pasadena house the wiring and plumbing usually set the budget. We open the panel and check the lines during the first visit. That way the scope covers what the walls are hiding, not just what you can see.

How it works

Premier Hi-End Builders is a licensed Los Angeles general contractor for whole-home and multi-room remodels. One crew handles layout and structural changes, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, kitchens and baths, flooring, windows, and paint on one schedule, with permits and a written price before demolition.

We walk every room, open the panel, and look at the plumbing and attic. The age of the systems decides half the budget, so we check them first.
