With a population of nearly 3.9 million spread across a median age of 36.5 and an average household size of 2.7, the city's housing stock is as varied as its communities — and Hollywood Contractor Corp is built to handle all of it.

Los Angeles Housing Stock

Old Bones, New Ambitions

A significant share of Los Angeles's residential buildings date back to the 1920s through the 1960s — decades that produced everything from Spanish Colonial Revival homes in Los Feliz to post-war stucco boxes in Van Nuys and Reseda. Remodeling these properties isn't simply cosmetic. Older framing, outdated electrical panels, galvanized plumbing, and original single-pane windows all surface once walls open up. Hollywood Contractor Corp approaches every project with a full assessment before scopes are finalized, so the work that needs to happen beneath the surface doesn't become a surprise mid-project. Whether the home sits on a flat lot in Mar Vista or on a terraced hillside above Elysian Park, the structural realities of the building drive the plan — not just the finish selections.

  • Assessment of existing framing and load-bearing walls
  • Electrical and plumbing evaluation before demolition
  • Foundation inspection for hillside and sloped lots
  • Identification of original materials requiring remediation
  • Structural reinforcement where additions or openings are planned
  • Coordination with LA Department of Building and Safety for permits

Kitchen & Bathroom Remodeling

Where Most LA Remodels Begin

Kitchens and bathrooms are the most requested remodeling projects across Los Angeles neighborhoods — and for good reason. In a city where roughly 63% of households rent, owner-occupants who do own their homes are motivated to invest in spaces that deliver both daily livability and long-term property value. Hollywood Contractor Corp handles kitchen remodels from layout reconfiguration and cabinet replacement to full gut-and-rebuild projects that open walls and relocate plumbing. Bathroom remodels range from straightforward tile and fixture upgrades in a Palms bungalow to complete wet-room conversions in a Brentwood estate. Every project is scoped to the specific home — not templated from a catalog.

  • Cabinet design, fabrication coordination, and installation
  • Countertop selection and installation across material types
  • Plumbing rough-in and fixture installation
  • Tile work: floors, backsplashes, and shower surrounds
  • Lighting layout and electrical updates
  • Ventilation and exhaust system upgrades

Additions & ADU Construction

Expanding What's Already There

Los Angeles has become one of the most active ADU markets in the state, driven by zoning changes that now allow accessory dwelling units on most single-family and multi-family lots across the city. Neighborhoods like Atwater Village, Glassell Park, and Mount Washington — where lots tend to be deeper and more irregular — have seen strong interest in detached ADU construction. Home additions, whether a primary suite above a garage in Studio City or a ground-floor family room expansion in Northridge, follow a similar process: site assessment, structural engineering coordination, permit filing with the City of Los Angeles, and full construction management through final inspection. Hollywood Contractor Corp manages the entire sequence, keeping the project moving without the homeowner having to juggle multiple contractors.

  • Detached and attached ADU construction
  • Garage conversions to habitable space
  • Second-story additions over existing footprints
  • Room additions with foundation and framing work
  • Permit filing and plan check coordination with LADBS
  • Utility connections: electrical, plumbing, and HVAC

Exterior & Structural Work

Roofing, Siding, and the Outside In

A home remodel in Los Angeles rarely stops at the interior. Exterior renovations — new roofing, stucco repair and replacement, deck and patio construction, and siding upgrades — are often bundled into a larger project scope, particularly on older homes in neighborhoods like Boyle Heights, Leimert Park, and Crenshaw where deferred maintenance has accumulated over decades. Hollywood Contractor Corp handles roofing installation, full stucco re-coat and repair, deck construction, and exterior finish work as standalone services or as part of a comprehensive remodel. Tying exterior and interior work under one contract eliminates the scheduling gaps and accountability gaps that come with hiring separate trades.

  • Roof installation and replacement across material types
  • Stucco repair, re-coat, and full exterior refinishing
  • Deck and patio construction with permit coordination
  • Exterior door and window replacement
  • Drainage and grading assessment for hillside properties
  • Exterior painting and finish work

Serving Greater Los Angeles

From the Valley to the Harbor

Hollywood Contractor Corp works across the full geographic spread of Los Angeles — from the San Fernando Valley communities of Chatsworth, Canoga Park, and Woodland Hills in the northwest, through the central neighborhoods of Hollywood, Silver Lake, and Koreatown, down to the harbor communities of San Pedro, Wilmington, and Harbor City in the south. The city's sheer scale means that a contractor who only knows one pocket of LA will miss the permit nuances, neighborhood character, and site conditions that vary dramatically from one zip code to the next. Homeowners in Sunland and Tujunga deal with different lot conditions than those in Playa del Rey or Westchester. That range of experience — across terrain, housing type, and jurisdiction — is what makes a full-service general contractor the right call for a Los Angeles remodel. Reach the team directly at (818) 264-1955 to talk through your project.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does home remodeling cost in Los Angeles?
Remodeling costs in Los Angeles vary widely depending on the scope, the condition of the existing structure, the neighborhood, and the materials selected. A focused bathroom remodel carries a very different budget than a full home gut-renovation or a new ADU build. Because Los Angeles homes range from 1920s craftsman bungalows in Highland Park to post-war ranch homes in Granada Hills to newer construction in Playa Vista, there's no single number that applies across the board. The best starting point is a direct conversation about your specific property and goals — call Hollywood Contractor Corp at (818) 264-1955 for a project assessment.
Does a home remodel in Los Angeles require permits, and how does that process work?
Most structural, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work in Los Angeles requires permits through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS). This includes kitchen remodels that touch plumbing or electrical, bathroom additions, home additions, ADU construction, and any work that alters load-bearing elements. The plan check and inspection process can add time to a project, but skipping permits creates serious liability when selling or refinancing. Hollywood Contractor Corp coordinates permit filing and plan check submissions as part of the project — homeowners don't have to navigate LADBS on their own. Call (818) 264-1955 to discuss what your specific remodel will require.
How long does a full home remodel take in Los Angeles?
Timeline depends heavily on scope. A single bathroom remodel might take two to four weeks once materials are on-site and permits are in hand. A full kitchen remodel with layout changes typically runs four to eight weeks. A whole-home renovation or a project that includes structural work, an addition, or an ADU can extend to several months, particularly when LADBS plan check review is factored in. Older homes in neighborhoods like Boyle Heights or Leimert Park sometimes surface unexpected conditions — outdated wiring, original cast-iron plumbing, or compromised framing — that extend the schedule. Hollywood Contractor Corp builds realistic timelines from the start. Call (818) 264-1955 to get a project-specific estimate.
My home in Silver Lake or Echo Park is a 1920s or 1930s bungalow — what should I expect during a remodel?
Homes of that era in Silver Lake, Echo Park, and neighboring Los Feliz are full of character — original hardwood floors, plaster walls, and period millwork — but they also carry the realities of a structure that's 80 to 100 years old. Knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized water supply lines, and original single-pane windows are common findings. Load-bearing walls may not be where a modern open-floor-plan layout would prefer them. A thorough pre-construction assessment is essential before finalizing scope and budget. Hollywood Contractor Corp handles these older structures regularly and knows how to preserve what's worth keeping while bringing the home up to current code. Call (818) 264-1955 to schedule a walkthrough.
Can a kitchen remodel in Los Angeles be done in phases, or does it need to happen all at once?
Phasing is possible, but it depends on what the first phase involves. If the initial work requires opening walls, relocating plumbing, or upgrading the electrical panel, it's often more cost-effective to complete the full kitchen scope in one continuous project rather than reopening finished work later. In some cases — particularly in Koreatown or Mid-Wilshire apartments where the homeowner is living in the space during construction — a phased approach makes practical sense. Hollywood Contractor Corp will walk through the trade-offs for your specific kitchen and living situation before any work begins. Call (818) 264-1955 to talk through your options.
What's involved in remodeling a hillside home in neighborhoods like Mount Washington or Glassell Park?
Hillside properties in Mount Washington, Glassell Park, and similar neighborhoods above the LA basin floor introduce site conditions that flat-lot remodels don't face. Retaining walls, drainage management, and foundation type all affect what's feasible and how a project is scoped. Additions or deck construction on a sloped lot require engineering review and, in many cases, soils reports before LADBS will issue permits. Access for materials and equipment can also be more constrained than on a standard street-level lot. Hollywood Contractor Corp has worked on hillside properties across these neighborhoods and factors those site realities into the project plan from the beginning. Call (818) 264-1955 to discuss your hillside property.
How do I decide between a targeted remodel — say, just the kitchen — versus a more comprehensive whole-home renovation?
The right scope depends on the age and condition of the home, your budget, how long you plan to stay, and whether deferred maintenance in other areas would be disruptive to address later. On a 1950s home in Northridge or Reseda, opening the kitchen often reveals plumbing and electrical that needs updating anyway — at which point expanding the scope to adjacent spaces can make financial sense. On a newer home in Westchester or Playa del Rey, a targeted kitchen or bathroom remodel may be entirely self-contained. Hollywood Contractor Corp will give you an honest assessment of what your home actually needs before recommending a scope. Call (818) 264-1955 to start that conversation.
Does Hollywood Contractor Corp handle the design side of a remodel, or do I need to hire a separate architect or designer?
Hollywood Contractor Corp operates as a full-service general contractor, managing projects from concept through completion. For projects that require stamped architectural drawings — such as structural additions, ADUs, or any work requiring LADBS plan check — coordination with a licensed architect or structural engineer is part of the process. For remodels that don't require full architectural plans, the team works directly with homeowners to develop the scope and material selections. Either way, you're working with a single point of contact rather than managing separate design and construction relationships. Call (818) 264-1955 to discuss what your Los Angeles remodel will require on the design side.
