Glendale Gut Remodels
The whole kitchen taken back to the studs and rebuilt, with one contractor running every trade.
A full kitchen remodel removes cabinets, counters, flooring and drywall, then rebuilds the room from the slab up. It's the right call when the layout, storage and wiring all fall short together.
Open walls are an opportunity. New circuits, a relocated sink drain or a gas line for a new range go in while everything is exposed. Each passes inspection before drywall closes it up.
The City of Glendale's building permit Q&A says new electrical circuits and outlets, drain pipes and gas pipes all need a permit. A kitchen that adds an island circuit, moves the sink or runs gas to a new range crosses that line. When yours does, we pull the permit and call for each inspection.


Old cabinets, tile counters and flooring hauled away in the first days.

New wiring, drains and gas stubs placed where the drawing puts them.

Smooth walls and a ceiling cut for the new lighting plan.

Cabinets, stone, faucet and shelving installed and adjusted.
| Phase | Work | City step |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Measure, drawings, appliance specs, cabinet order | Plans prepared for review |
| Permit | Application emailed for electronic review | Permit issued |
| Demolition | Room taken to studs and slab | None |
| Rough-in | Electrical, plumbing and gas work in open walls | Inspection before walls close |
| Build-out | Drywall, flooring, cabinets, countertop template and install | Further inspections as required |
| Finish | Backsplash, fixtures, appliances, punch list | Final inspection |
The City also says work can't continue until a city inspector approves it, and a permit expires if work doesn't start within 180 days of issue. We submit once the drawings and cabinet order are final, so the clock and the inspections line up with the build.
Glendale accepts plans by email for electronic review, and the City says drawings for a home improvement project must be accurate, legible and complete. Our measured kitchen drawings are made to that standard from the start.
A refresh keeps the cabinet boxes and layout and changes surfaces. A full remodel replaces nearly everything and can move plumbing, wiring and walls. We price both when you're on the fence.
We do. Demolition, licensed electrical and plumbing, drywall, cabinets, countertops and tile are scheduled under one contract, so you have one point of contact.
We correct it and call for a re-inspection. The City says work can't continue until an inspector approves it, so we build that time into the schedule.
Yes. Most families stay. We seal the kitchen off and help you set up a temporary kitchen in another room.
