Open-plan whole home remodel with new flooring and glazing

A whole-home remodel can update the layout, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, systems and finishes in one project. We plan the work in sequence and coordinate the trades.

Older homes can need repairs to plumbing, wiring or framing once walls are opened. Our in-house trades assess those conditions and discuss any changes to the scope and schedule with you.

Planning your project in Orinda

Orinda's wooded lots and custom homes call for careful additions, structural know-how and finishes that disappear into the original.

The local housing includes 1930s–60s custom homes, many original and architecturally distinctive. Older homes may have knob-and-tube wiring, unreinforced foundations or single-pane windows. We assess these systems and discuss needed repairs alongside the remodeling plans.

We serve Orinda, including Orinda Downs, Sleepy Hollow, Glorietta and Orinda Village. Project planning here accounts for steep wooded canyons, narrow access roads and strict fire-zone requirements. We consider insulation, window specifications and the way the home handles heat and moisture throughout the year.

Permits and inspections in Orinda

Permits for work in Orinda go through the City of Orinda Building Department. A whole-home scope means a full plan set and a longer review, so we account for permitting and demolition in the project schedule. We handle the permit application and coordinate inspections.

Frequently asked questions

How do you price a whole-home remodel?

We walk the house with you, build a written scope room by room, and price it line by line — free. You'll know what's included, what's optional and what the schedule looks like before signing anything.

Can we live in the house during the remodel?

Often, yes — many clients stay in the house during a whole-home remodel. AZ Elevated Builders sequences the work by zone so part of the house stays livable, keeps job sites clean daily, and explains when a phase is better done with the house empty.

Do you work with designers in Orinda?

Yes. AZ Elevated Builders works with designers on Orinda projects — bring your own designer or plans, or we can loop in a designer we trust. Either way, the drawings, the schedule and the build stay coordinated under one roof.
