[GET ESTIMATED NOW](https://maingreenconstruction.com/contact-us/) ## Create a Stylish and Sustainable Kitchen in Los Angeles We do the latest flooring techniques ### **Flooring** Whether it is ceramic, laminate and vinyl or even natural stone tiles, we can help you create the look and feel that you desire. One of the most popular materials for kitchen floors are ceramic tiles made from natural materials like clay that are baked to a finish. #### **Countertops** We use all the latest and most popular materials including, granite, marble, quartzite, soapstone, porcelain, and engineered quartz. #### **Cabinets** Sometimes we can take a more budget friendly and less labor intensive approach and do a simple cabinet refacing. If your kitchen is in need of a complete overhaul and reassessment of storage space, we can also demolish and install brand new cabinets. Our dedicated team of designers can create a design that works with your budget and vibe. #### **Appliances** We can help you choose the best appliances for your style and budget. Our expert installers will make sure everything is in top working order. This includes the increasingly popular commercial grade refrigerators which are a great choice for larger households or for those who often host large gatherings. #### **Water Saving Sinks and Plumbing** Let us help you choose water saving sinks and plumbing…your future bills will thank you! #### **Recessed Lighting** Most interior designers will tell you that lighting can make all the difference! We agree. That is why we offer full electrical assessments and expert installation of canned and recessed lighting. ## What sets the price of a kitchen remodel in Los Angeles Two kitchens of the same size can end up far apart in price. These choices move it most: - **Layout:** keeping the sink, range and refrigerator where they are costs less than moving them, because a move means new plumbing, gas or electrical runs and patched floors and walls. - **Cabinets:** refacing the boxes you have, new stock cabinets, or a custom design. - **Countertops:** the material, the edge profile and the cutouts for the sink and cooktop. - **Electrical:** recessed and under-cabinet lighting, new circuits for appliances, or a panel that is already full. - **Appliances and ventilation:** a range hood vented outdoors, a larger refrigerator, or a switch from gas to induction. - **What demolition finds:** a slow leak under the sink, a soft subfloor or old wiring. The estimate is free, and the design is drawn in 2D and 3D before any work starts. New floors often go in with the kitchen (see [flooring installation](https://maingreenconstruction.com/flooring/)), and a kitchen can be one part of a [whole-home remodel](https://maingreenconstruction.com/remodeling/).

The 2025 edition applies to projects whose permit application is made on or after January 1, 2026 ([California Energy Commission](https://www.energy.ca.gov/programs-and-topics/programs/building-energy-efficiency-standards/2025-building-energy-efficiency)). For a kitchen it means: - Every new light fixture and lamp is a certified high-efficacy (JA8) light source, which in practice means LED; lighting built into the range hood is an exception. - New recessed ceiling lights have no screw-base sockets, carry an airtight label and are sealed to the ceiling. - Kitchen lighting gets wall-mounted dimmers, with a few exceptions. - Under-cabinet lighting is switched separately from the ceiling lights. - Lights inside cabinets with solid doors turn off when the door closes. Keeping your existing recessed cans? Lighting you do not alter can stay as it is; when you update existing screw-base cans, JA8 trim kits or lamps let the housings stay. A kitchen remodel is also a good moment for the [energy efficient electrical upgrades](https://maingreenconstruction.com/energy-efficient-electric/) the rest of the house may need. ## Before you choose: cooking fuel and hidden problems - Gas or induction?Induction heats the pan itself. ENERGY STAR puts the share of heating energy that reaches the food at about 85% with induction, against about a third with gas ([ENERGY STAR](https://www.energystar.gov/products/electric_cooking_products)). Switching from gas usually needs a 240-volt outlet at the range, and a home with a small panel and few free breaker slots may need a panel upgrade first. - Signs it needs more than new doors - Swollen or stained cabinet bottoms under the sink: a slow leak that needs a [plumbing](https://maingreenconstruction.com/plumbing/) repair first. - A soft or uneven floor by the sink or dishwasher. - Breakers that trip when two appliances run at once. - Cabinet boxes, not just doors, that are broken or sagging: refacing will not fix them. ### How does it work?

Inside the City of Los Angeles, LADBS offers a combined online permit for a kitchen remodel in a house or duplex that keeps the same layout: cabinets, counters, tile, flooring, wall finishes and plumbing and electrical fixtures. It is not available for apartment or condominium buildings, and changing walls or openings needs plan check first. We apply for all the permits your home improvement project requires well before construction.Should I reface or replace my kitchen cabinets?Refacing suits cabinet boxes that are sound, in a layout that already works. New cabinets make sense when the boxes are damaged or when you want a new layout or more storage.Which countertop materials do you install?Granite, marble, quartzite, soapstone, porcelain and engineered quartz.Can you switch my kitchen from gas to induction?Yes. As part of the remodel we check whether your panel has room for the 240-volt circuit an induction range needs and add it, so the new range is ready when the kitchen is finished.Do you remodel kitchens outside the City of Los Angeles?Yes. We serve Los Angeles and nearby cities, including Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, Culver City, Inglewood, Torrance, Long Beach, Whittier, Santa Clarita, Palmdale and Lancaster, like the kitchen remodels in Torrance and Gardena shown on this page. We do not take jobs more than 2 hours or 70 miles away.
