Fast, Reliable Home Remodeling Across North Hollywood
Kitchen Remodeling - North Hollywood runs $14,000 – $45,000 for a typical project, $9,000 – $28,000 for a bathroom, and $45,000 – $130,000 for a full home addition. Those are the honest ranges we quote every week to homeowners along Burbank Boulevard, in Valley Village, and across the NoHo Arts District. Curtis Lane, who runs Bradford Remodeling, insists every number goes in writing before a single tool comes out. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll walk your actual house, look at your actual subfloor, and give you a price that won’t move at the door.
We’re not the cheapest bid in North Hollywood, and that’s the point. We’re the bid that’s already accounted for the sagging beam that a drive-by quote missed. Our crews know what’s behind the plaster in a 1930s bungalow off Camarillo Street, because we’ve opened those walls. That’s the difference between a price you can plan around and a surprise invoice in week three.
Why Bradford Remodeling Is North Hollywood’s Preferred Home Remodeling Company
Bradford Remodeling has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004, and every project in North Hollywood runs on The Garrison Standard: a written price before work starts, a documented scope, and a signed 365-Day Done Right Promise in your hand when the job closes. If the work fails inside that year, we return and correct it at no charge. That guarantee is written, not spoken.
Homeowners in North Hollywood tend to ask the same three things: who’s walking through my door, what does the number actually cover, and what happens if it’s not done right. The answer is the same on every job. Background-checked, uniformed technicians. A documented roster of materials like KraftMaid cabinetry, Cambria quartz, Kohler fixtures, and James Hardie siding. And a guarantee with a full year behind it, backed in writing.
When you call Bradford Remodeling at (903) 568-7222, a live person picks up. Not a voicemail, not a callback queue. 24 hours a day, seven days a week, a real human answers. That matters when a load-bearing wall opens up wrong, or when the inspector needs a question answered before final sign-off.
Styles & brands we work with
Home Remodeling Companies in North Hollywood
Home Remodeling Companies in North Hollywood work across a housing stock that’s older and more structurally varied than most people realize. The job here isn’t just swapping cabinets and counters. It’s correcting out-of-level framing on pier-and-beam foundations, pulling permits for unpermitted prior work, and making sure the new finish actually lands on something solid. A straightforward kitchen refresh in a 1940s tract home off Lankershim Boulevard can run $14,000 – $45,000. A smaller galley kitchen redo typically lands between $9,000 and $20,000.
What a North Hollywood Remodel Actually Involves
Most projects start with a site visit to check the subfloor, the framing, and the existing electrical. In pre-war bungalows, we’re regularly finding knob-and-tube wiring and pier blocks that have shifted over 80 years. The remodel then moves through demolition, rough-in plumbing and electrical, insulation, drywall, and finishes. Each stage gets inspected before the next one starts.
When to Bring in a Contractor
If the work touches a wall, a drain line, or a circuit, a licensed contractor is the right call. Homeowners sometimes wait until the tile is cracked or the cabinet face is falling off. By then the substrate behind it is usually worse. We’d rather scope it early and write the number before the rot spreads.
Whole House Remodel in North Hollywood
A Whole House Remodel in North Hollywood means taking a 1938 bungalow or a post-war tract home and bringing the entire envelope, systems, and layout up to current code at once. Costs run $45,000 – $130,000 for a full home addition, and an ADU construction project in North Hollywood typically ranges $90,000 – $220,000 depending on size, foundation, and site access. These are the biggest checks a homeowner writes, and the ones where a bad number does the most damage.
Scope, Permits, and the Draw Schedule
Whole-house work in North Hollywood almost always requires building permits from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. Electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits ride along with the main building permit. The draw schedule follows the inspections: foundation, rough-in, insulation, drywall, final. We walk every inspection with the inspector, and we don’t ask for the next draw until the previous phase is signed off.
What Sets a Disciplined Crew Apart
At job close, a Bradford site is clean. The dumpster is pulled. The scope document is checked against what’s standing. The signed 365-Day Done Right Promise is in your hand. That’s what squared away looks like. Not a verbal promise, not a handshake, not a stack of receipts. A written guarantee, a documented scope, and a house that works.
Trusted Brands We Service in North Hollywood
Bradford Remodeling installs and services a documented roster of name-brand materials for North Hollywood homeowners: KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, GAF and James Hardie exterior products, Therma-Tru doors, and Belgard hardscaping. We also work with prefabricated ADU systems from Dvele and Abodu when a North Hollywood homeowner wants a faster path to a permitted accessory unit. Using traceable, spec’d materials means when a manufacturer warranty applies, it stacks on top of our own 365-Day Done Right Promise. You get two written guarantees, not one spoken hope.

AfterCommon Home Remodeling Problems We See in North Hollywood Homes
- Pier-and-beam subfloors that have sagged. Much of North Hollywood’s pre-1940s stock sits on raised wood subfloors over pier blocks. Eighty years of soil movement means remodels routinely start with re-leveling before any new floor goes down.
- Load-bearing walls hiding under old plaster. In bungalows off Camarillo Street and near the NoHo Arts District, homeowners often want a wall gone between the kitchen and dining room. That wall is frequently carrying roof load over an undersized beam. We pull the permit, add a stamped engineered header, and show the inspector the load path.
- Unpermitted prior additions. A converted garage or a bolted-on sunroom without permits is common in the older neighborhoods around Chandler Boulevard. If it’s not in the permit records, it can’t support new finishes. We correct it before we build on it.
- Old knob-and-tube and underpowered panels. A 1930s or 1940s North Hollywood home often has dated wiring behind the walls. Remodeling is the right time to replace it, because nobody wants to cut into fresh drywall a year later. The scope goes in the written price, not on a verbal change order.
Pricing for Home Remodeling in North Hollywood, CA
These are the actual ranges we quote for Home Remodeling work in North Hollywood. They reflect the real condition of the housing stock here, which skews older and structurally more complex than newer slab-on-grade suburbs nearby.
| Project | North Hollywood Price Range |
|---|---|
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000 – $20,000 |
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
| Home Addition | $45,000 – $130,000 |
| ADU Construction | $90,000 – $220,000 |
The spread within each range is driven by square footage, the condition of the existing framing and subfloor, and the material tier you choose. A kitchen on a level slab with stock cabinets lands at the low end. A kitchen over a sagging pier-and-beam subfloor with Cambria counters, a structural header, and panel replacement lands higher. That’s not a markup. That’s the actual scope, in writing. Call (903) 568-7222 and Curtis Lane will put the real number on your specific house. Estimates are free.

FAQs About Home Remodeling in North Hollywood
Yes, if the work touches plumbing, electrical, or structural framing, you need permits through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. A kitchen remodel that moves a sink, adds circuits, or removes a wall requires a building permit plus electrical and plumbing permits. Bradford Remodeling pulls permits on every job where they’re required, and we walk the inspections through rough-in, insulation, and final. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll tell you exactly what applies to your house before any work starts.
Because the housing stock is different. Much of North Hollywood is pre-1940s bungalows and post-war tract homes on pier-and-beam foundations with out-of-level framing and unpermitted prior work. A quote from a newer suburb assumes a slab-on-grade footprint and 2000s-era framing. The number changes when you open the wall and find an undersized beam or knob-and-tube. We write the structural correction into the original price, not as a change order. Call (903) 568-7222 for a quote that’s calibrated to your actual street.
Plan on four to nine months for a whole-house remodel, depending on scope and permit timelines. The sequence runs: site walk, written scope and price, permit submittal, demo, structural corrections, rough-in, insulation inspection, drywall, finishes, final inspection, punch list. On a 1938 bungalow off Camarillo Street, we pulled permits, added a stamped engineered header, re-leveled a sagging subfloor, and set KraftMaid cabinets with a Cambria quartz island before the inspector signed off. That job ran six months. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll map the calendar for your specific project.
Rot behind the drywall, an unpermitted wall that’s actually structural, old wiring that fails inspection, or a foundation that’s moved more than the original walkthrough showed. Those items go in writing as a change order before the work happens. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the work once it’s complete. What it never covers is a vague verbal promise. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll put the contingency language in the scope document, not in a voicemail.
An allowance is a dollar figure written into the bid for a specific material category: cabinets, counters, tile, fixtures. We itemize each one. A kitchen bid might carry a $12,000 cabinet allowance and a $4,500 counter allowance. You pick your slab and door style within that figure. If you go over, you know exactly how much and why. If a bid lists one lump allowance without itemized numbers, that’s a red flag. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll walk every line item before you sign.
