Remodeling Company in Sunnyvale, CA
Sunnyvale homeowners call us when a project needs one contractor who can handle the whole scope, from the kitchen cabinets to the roof overhead. Most of the work we do here is either a major remodel of a 1950s or 60s ranch tract home, or a teardown-and-rebuild on a tight infill lot. The city’s plan review process is famously thorough, and the housing stock carries its own quirks: knob-and-tube wiring, undersized panels, and non-permitted additions from decades past. If you’re planning a home renovation in Sunnyvale, call (855) 382-3257 to talk through what the job will actually take.
Why Sunnyvale Homes Are Different
Sunnyvale sits at the heart of Silicon Valley, and the construction market here reflects that. Teardown-rebuild and major remodel work is driven by tech-wealth demand and overseen by a city that is painstakingly thorough in plan review and inspections. Construction in Sunnyvale is less about building cheaply and more about navigating a high-value, high-scrutiny permitting environment on lots that rarely leave room to spare.
The older housing stock, mostly 1950s and 60s single-story ranch and Eichler-influenced tract homes, carries predictable problems. We regularly open walls and find knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring that has to go. Original electrical panels are often 100 amp or less, too small for a modern kitchen or an ADU. And a surprising number of those older homes have additions that were never permitted, which means the city will want them brought up to code before any new work proceeds.
The Eichler-era flat and low-slope roofs across the older Sunnyvale tracts are another factor. Combined with the city’s strict green-building and stormwater requirements on remodels, a roof replacement or addition here often triggers full structural and drainage upgrades that would sail through in a neighboring city. The wet season runs roughly November through March, so roofing, stucco, and concrete pours need to be scheduled around it. The long dry season creates its own constraints: drought-driven landscaping requirements and permeable-surface considerations now shape how patios, driveways, and lot drainage get designed.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Sunnyvale Services
Two services account for most of what Sunnyvale homeowners ask us about: full general contracting for larger projects, and whole-home remodeling for the older stock that needs modernizing.
General Contractor in Sunnyvale
A general contractor in Sunnyvale does more than schedule subs. On a teardown-rebuild or a major addition here, the GC is the one managing the city’s plan review process, coordinating structural engineering for those flat Eichler-era roofs, and making sure every trade passes a Sunnyvale inspection the first time. We handle that from start to finish, with one contract and one point of accountability. Learn more about how we run projects here on our General Contractor in Sunnyvale page.
Home Remodeling in Sunnyvale
Most remodels in Sunnyvale start with an older ranch or Eichler-influenced home that has good bones but outdated wiring, a cramped kitchen, and a roof nearing the end of its life. The most efficient remodels here bundle interior and exterior scope so the permit package, the schedule, and the budget are managed together. See how we approach those projects on our Home Remodeling in Sunnyvale page.

Home Renovation in Sunnyvale
Home renovation in Sunnyvale means solving problems specific to this housing stock: 1950s and 60s ranch tract homes with original wiring that cannot support a modern kitchen, flat or low-slope roofs that leak in the concentrated wet season, and non-permitted additions that complicate any permit package. You need a contractor who has worked through Sunnyvale’s plan review process enough times to know what the city will flag. That is what we do as a full-scope Home Renovation contractor, one team from the cabinets to the roof.
Home Renovation Contractors
Signs you need it
You have multiple scopes of work that would otherwise require hiring and coordinating three or more separate contractors, or the home’s age means electrical, structural, and finish work all need to happen at once.
What it costs in Sunnyvale
Kitchen remodels in Sunnyvale typically run $14,000 to $45,000 depending on cabinet grade, countertop material, and how much electrical and plumbing work the older framing requires.
How we do it
We start with a full site assessment of the existing electrical, roof, and structural conditions, then build a single scope and schedule with one permit package submitted to the city.
Home Renovation Companies
Signs you need it
The project spans interior and exterior work, such as a kitchen remodel paired with a roof replacement and new windows, and you want one company accountable for the whole result.
What it costs in Sunnyvale
Roof replacement here ranges $8,000 to $20,000 while window replacement runs $4,500 to $15,000, and bundling them under one renovation contract usually saves money on mobilization and permit coordination.
How we do it
We sequence the work so exterior envelope repairs happen before interior finishes go in, which protects new cabinets and counters from weather and dust.

| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |

Can Sunnyvale’s older electrical systems handle a full home renovation?
Most 1950s and 60s ranch homes in Sunnyvale still run on 100-amp panels with knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring. A full renovation almost always includes upgrading the panel and rewiring affected circuits, and the city will require it before signing off. Call (855) 382-3257 to have us look at your panel during the estimate.
How long does a whole-home renovation take in Sunnyvale?
Plan review alone can take several weeks depending on the scope and how many corrections the city requests. A full home renovation typically runs four to six months from permit submission to final inspection. We sequence the work to keep the project moving during the dry season. Call (855) 382-3257 for a realistic timeline on your specific scope.

Two things push pricing up in Sunnyvale more than anywhere else: the age of the housing stock, which hides electrical and structural surprises behind every wall, and the city’s plan review process, which often requires upgrades beyond the original scope. Our written estimates are line-item and fixed-price, so the number on the proposal is the number you pay. No change orders that the project could have anticipated.

What Sunnyvale Customers Say
"Quality construction and a professional operation. Communication was strongest at the site meetings, and slower by email in between."
— Roger Parker"Allowances in the contract were realistic rather than artificially low to make the bid look good."
— Elena Mendoza"He caught an error in the engineer's drawings before it got framed, which would have been an expensive thing to discover later."
— Gabriela Martinez
