San Francisco Homes
Have Stories

Victorians in Noe Valley, Edwardians in the Inner Sunset, Marina-style homes in the Richmond, and 1940s row houses out by Ocean Beach. San Francisco has some of the most beautiful housing in the country, and some of the most challenging floor plans: one bathroom for the whole house, kitchens tucked into the back, and rooms that were never meant for the way families live today.

We remodel San Francisco homes with that history in mind. Tight lots, shared walls, steep streets, limited parking and careful neighbors all shape how a project is planned, staged and built. We account for those realities from the first walkthrough, so the schedule and budget you see are ones we can actually deliver.

Every project starts with a conversation about what isn't working in your home today. Then we design it, permit it and build it under one roof. One accountable team, from the first sketch to the final walkthrough.

Design + Build Under One Roof
Our designers and builders work as one team from day one. No handoffs between an architect and a separate contractor, and no finger-pointing when questions come up in the field.

Planned for San Francisco Permitting
San Francisco has its own building department and planning review, and exterior work on older homes can add neighborhood notice or historic review. We map out which approvals your project needs before design is finalized, so permitting doesn't become a surprise.

Respect for Older Homes
Plaster walls, old-growth redwood framing, original trim and bay windows. We modernize kitchens, baths and systems while keeping the details that make a San Francisco home worth living in.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Do I need Planning review to remodel in San Francisco?

Most interior remodels only need a building permit. Exterior changes such as additions, new windows on the street facade, or changes to a home's height or footprint can require Planning review, and some neighborhoods and historic buildings have additional rules. We review your property early and plan the approvals into the schedule.

Can I build an ADU in San Francisco?

In many cases, yes. California ADU law and San Francisco's own program allow accessory units on most residential lots, and converting a ground-floor garage or storage area is one of the most common approaches in the city. We assess your lot, design the unit and handle permitting and construction.

Should I include seismic work in my San Francisco remodel?

For many older wood-frame homes it's worth considering. Foundation bolting and cripple-wall bracing are often more efficient to do while walls and floors are already open during a remodel. We'll tell you honestly whether it makes sense for your home.

How long does a San Francisco remodel take?

It depends on scope and on the approvals required. Interior kitchen and bath projects move fastest, while additions, ADUs and exterior changes take longer because of design and permit review. We give you a realistic timeline before construction starts.
