Remodeling a Home in Chino Hills

Homeowners in Chino Hills often want the kitchen updated to match how they entertain, the primary bathroom turned into a more comfortable retreat, and the backyard set up for cooking and hosting outside. Many neighborhoods have HOAs with architectural review, so exterior projects need planning ahead. Our team has more than 35 years of experience and holds California License #790442. We keep our projects within the scope that does not require a building permit, and we tell you at the first visit if what you have in mind would need one.

Hillside lots

01

Many Chino Hills homes sit on sloped or terraced lots, which can limit where a patio cover or outdoor kitchen fits. We look at your yard's level areas and access at the first visit.

HOA architectural review

02

Many Chino Hills neighborhoods have HOAs that review patio covers, outdoor kitchens and exterior paint before work starts. We help you prepare the drawings and material details they ask for.

Original kitchens and baths

03

Many homes still have their original cabinets, tile and fixtures. Because the layouts generally work, a same-layout remodel is often the best use of the budget.

Entertaining at home

04

Chino Hills homeowners often host family and friends at home. Kitchen islands with seating and backyard cooking areas are frequent requests.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

A standard bathroom remodel takes 8 to 12 days of on-site work, and a primary suite takes 2 to 4 weeks. Before demolition, allow 1 to 2 weeks for design and selections and 1 to 4 weeks for tile, the vanity and fixtures to arrive. We confirm deliveries before scheduling the start.

How is a shower waterproofed during a bathroom remodel?

A shower is waterproofed with a sloped shower pan and a waterproofing membrane behind the tile, not with tile and grout alone. Tile and grout shed most water, but some always works through. The membrane stops it before it reaches the framing or subfloor, and we water-test the pan before any tile goes in.

Frameless vs semi-frameless shower glass: which should I choose?

Frameless glass uses thick panels with minimal hardware and gives the most open look, while semi-frameless puts a slim metal frame around the perimeter and costs less. Both work well on a walk-in shower. Frameless suits tile you want to show off, and semi-frameless suits a clean look on a tighter budget.

Can I use my bathroom during a remodel if it's my only one?

Not for most of the project. The shower is out of use from demolition until the tile and glass are done, and the toilet is disconnected for part of the work. Many homeowners with one bathroom shower at a gym or with family, and we walk through which days the toilet is offline before we start.

Chino Hills Remodeling FAQ

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Chino Hills?

+
A full kitchen remodel in Chino Hills typically costs $35,000–$75,000+. Same-layout remodels with semi-custom cabinets usually run $35,000–$50,000, projects with an island and upgraded cabinetry $50,000–$75,000, and full custom kitchens $75,000 and up. We give you a written estimate after a free in-home consultation.

Can you build an outdoor kitchen on a sloped Chino Hills yard?

+
Often, yes, as long as there is a level area such as an existing patio to set the island on. We look at your yard's grade and access at the first visit and plan the island to fit. Our islands run on propane and plug into an existing exterior outlet, so no new gas line or circuit is needed.

Do I need HOA approval for an outdoor kitchen or patio cover in Chino Hills?

+
In many Chino Hills neighborhoods, yes. HOAs with architectural review often want to see the size, location and materials of patio covers and outdoor kitchens before work starts. We help you put together the details so you can submit early.

Can you add a sink to my Chino Hills outdoor kitchen?

+
We do not plumb outdoor sinks. A sink with a water supply and a drain to the house is permit work, which is outside the projects we take on. A self-contained portable sink or a prep station with a removable bin covers most outdoor prep.

Can you enlarge our primary bathroom by taking space from a closet?

+
No. Moving walls requires a permit, and that is outside the projects we take on. We remodel the primary bath within its current footprint, often replacing a tub with a larger shower at the existing drain and adding a better vanity and storage. We keep our projects within the scope that does not require a building permit, and we tell you at the first visit if what you have in mind would need one.

How long does a primary bathroom remodel take in Chino Hills?

+
A primary suite remodel usually takes 2–4 weeks on site, and a standard bathroom takes 8–12 days. The exact schedule depends on the tile, vanity and fixtures you choose. We water-test the shower pan before any tile goes in.
