Encino · San Fernando Valley
We opened up a kitchen in Encino as part of a full house remodel in 91316. The load-bearing wall between the kitchen and living room came out, and slim shaker cabinets with new counters went in. That job is on our projects page with before and after photos. Most Encino kitchens we see are in post-war ranch homes north of Ventura Boulevard or larger houses in the hills to the south. Both areas permit through LADBS. We plan the layout, engineer any wall that moves, and give you a full price before demolition starts.

Permits and local rules

Kitchen Remodeling in Encino
In the Encino job the wall between the kitchen and living room carried the roof. It was engineered, a new beam went in, and it passed LADBS inspection before drywall. It is the change that makes a ranch kitchen feel new.
How it works
Premier Hi-End Builders is a kitchen remodel contractor serving Greater Los Angeles. We build semi-custom and fully custom kitchens, islands, and open-concept layouts. Permits are filed when plumbing, gas, electrical, or walls move. You get a written scope and a labor and materials price before demolition.
We measure the room, look at what is behind the walls, and talk through what annoys you about the kitchen you have. Plumbing and electrical get checked here, because that is what moves a budget later.
We map the new plan and price it against real cabinet, counter, and appliance choices. You see options at a few price points before anything gets ordered.
If the scope needs a permit, we file it. Long-lead items like cabinets and stone go on order early so the schedule is never waiting on a truck.
The old kitchen comes out. Framing, plumbing, electrical, and any structural change happen while the walls are open, and inspections get scheduled around them.
We install the cabinets, counters, tile, and fixtures, then paint. At the end we walk the room with you and fix any small items before we call it done.

FAQ
Yes, with an engineer and an LADBS permit. We did exactly that in our Encino full remodel. The beam size and posts depend on what the wall is carrying.
Yes. The Encino Full Remodel on our projects page shows the open kitchen, the cabinets, and the before photos.
Start with how you cook, how much storage you need, and whether the layout has to move. We walk the room with you, check plumbing and electrical, and price the real scope before demolition. The free LA Remodel Decision Sheet lists the questions to settle first.
Semi-custom uses configurable cabinet lines and finish options that still fit your room. Fully custom builds cabinetry and layout from scratch around your exact plan. Both can look high-end. The difference is how much of the box is made for your space.
