Remodeling Company in Lompico, CA
Home renovation in Lompico means working with steep, redwood-covered lots, older mountain cabins, and county permitting that asks more from every project than a flatlands job ever would. Toolbox Contractors has served Lompico since 2013, and we’ve learned that the houses here were often hand-built, added onto over decades, and now sit on septic systems and private wells with drainage that has to be engineered, not guessed at. From kitchen remodels to full interior renovations, the work starts with understanding what the mountain wants to do with the water and the slopes. Call (855) 382-3257 and we’ll walk your property before we ever put a number on the scope.
Why Lompico Homes Are Different
Lompico sits in the Santa Cruz Mountains off narrow, winding roads where the redwood canopy never really lets the roof dry out. That single fact shapes almost everything we open up here. Heavy winter rain runs down cut slopes, seeps into crawl spaces, and pushes soil against foundation walls, so a remodel that starts as a kitchen often includes drainage work, retaining repair, or at minimum a hard look at how water moves across the parcel. The housing stock is mostly older mountain cabins and owner-improved homes, many built before the current code existed, and a lot of them carry unpermitted additions that only surface once the drywall comes down. Lompico is unincorporated, which means county permits, plus WUI fire-clearance and geologic review on hillside lots. The same addition that gets a quick sign-off in a flat nearby town can trigger slope-stability and defensible-space requirements here. We plan for that from the first walkthrough.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Lompico Services
The two services Lompico homeowners call us about most are full general contracting and whole-home remodeling, usually because the project spans more than one trade and the property itself adds complexity no single specialist wants to own.
General Contractor in Lompico
When a Lompico project touches structure, drainage, and finishes at the same time, you need one license holding the whole thing together. We run the county permit process, sequence the trades around weather and slope access, and keep the project moving when a hillside lot only gives a crew so much room to stage. See what full-scope general contracting looks like here: General Contractor in Lompico.
Home Remodeling in Lompico
Lompico remodels frequently reveal what previous owners did to keep a mountain cabin livable: non-permitted wiring, odd framing choices, rot where the wet season met untreated lumber. We rebuild those spaces to current code and to the way the property actually drains and vents. The full picture is on our dedicated page: Home Remodeling in Lompico.

Home Renovation in Lompico
Home renovation in Lompico is rarely a cosmetic exercise. The older cabins and hand-built homes here hide decades of owner fixes, and the climate keeps testing every seam: winter rain against siding and foundations, summer fire season pressing on clearance and roofing choices. What looks like an outdated kitchen often turns out to be the project that finally addresses a wet crawl space, an undersized panel, or dry rot in a load-bearing wall. As a Home Renovation contractor working the Santa Cruz Mountains, we scope the whole house first, then the room. Below are the specific renovation jobs we handle most in Lompico.
Home Renovation Contractors
Signs you need it
Multiple rooms need work at the same time, or you’ve been patching the same roof leak, soft floor, and drafty window for years while the scope quietly grows.
What it costs in Lompico
Whole-home renovation work in Lompico typically runs $14,000 to $45,000 for kitchen-scale scopes and $45,000 to $130,000 for a full home addition, depending on what the framing and drainage reveal.
How we do it
We document the existing conditions, pull the county permits, then run the job in phases so heat, water, and safe access stay intact while the house is open.
Home Renovation Companies
Signs you need it
You’ve been told by an inspector, lender, or insurance carrier that portions of the house are non-permitted, not to current code, or need structural correction before any further work.
What it costs in Lompico
Renovations that correct unpermitted prior work in Lompico most often land between $14,000 and $45,000, with smaller scopes like a single bathroom starting around $9,000.
How we do it
We bring the affected systems to current code first, document everything for the county, then layer in the finishes once the building envelope and mechanicals are sound.
What Home Renovation Costs in Lompico
| Item | Typical range in Lompico |
|---|---|
| Kitchen remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Bathroom remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
| Home addition | $45,000 – $130,000 |
How long does a home renovation take in Lompico?
Most full-home renovations in Lompico run 8 to 20 weeks. Slope access, county geologic review, and rainy-season sequencing can add weeks that a flatlands job would not carry, so we build the schedule around the parcel, not a calendar template.
Will Lompico’s permit process change my renovation scope?
Yes, often. Because Lompico is unincorporated county land, hillside parcels can trigger geologic and WUI review, and unpermitted prior work must be corrected as part of the permit. We identify those triggers in the first walkthrough so the scope reflects reality.

What Lompico Customers Say
"The foundation survey came back dead on. Everything downstream of that being square is the reason the rest of the build went smoothly."
— Oscar Flores"He was upfront about a soil issue that added cost early rather than absorbing it and surprising us at the end."
— Tara Doyle"Ground up build. Permits, foundation, framing, all of it, and he ran the schedule tightly enough that the subs were never tripping over each other. Finished within a month of a fourteen month estimate."
— Claudia Vargas
