Kitchen Remodeling in Pasadena

We remodeled a kitchen in a two-story Pasadena townhouse in 91101. Slim shaker cabinets in white oak replaced the old boxes, and new flooring went through the whole house so the kitchen did not end at a seam. That job is on our projects page. Most Pasadena kitchens we see sit in Craftsman or Spanish Colonial homes, where the room is small and the original built-ins are worth keeping. We plan the layout around what the house already does well, then file with the City of Pasadena, which runs its own plan check.

Keep the Craftsman, lose the cramped

Craftsman kitchens were built small and closed off. We often open the wall to the dining room, keep or rebuild the original built-in buffet, and use inset or slim shaker doors that suit the house. You get a modern kitchen that still reads as 1915.

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.

Common questions about kitchen remodeling in Pasadena

Answers about permits, timing, and cost in Pasadena.

Usually not for interior work. Landmark Districts mostly review exterior changes. If the remodel moves a window or adds an exterior door, design review can apply. We check your parcel first.
