RnD Builders: Home Remodeling Contractor in Hidden Hills

Hidden Hills is a gated city in the Santa Monica Mountains, next to Calabasas and close to the western edge of the San Fernando Valley, and it follows its own rules. Large lots, equestrian trails and a community association that reviews every exterior change set the pace of a remodel here, so the plan, the design and the approvals have to line up before anyone picks up a hammer. Our office is at 21250 Califa St in Woodland Hills.

As a home remodeling contractor in Hidden Hills, RnD Builders helps homeowners bring new life and value into their properties, from kitchens and bathrooms to additions, guest houses and outdoor living. Our design-build team takes on projects of every size with the same dedication to quality and detail, and we prepare the architectural submittals that the community and the city both ask for.

We recently completed a full kitchen remodel with R&D Builders and are very happy with both the experience and the finished product.

Roi, one of the owners, was our primary point of contact. He’s personable, charismatic, and genuinely easy to work with. He has high standards, pays attention to the details, and clearly cares about making sure his customers get exactly what they envisioned.

R&D coordinated all aspects of the remodel, including demolition, framing, drywall, insulation, plumbing, electrical, flooring, countertops, and stucco work. The drywall and countertop teams were particularly excellent, and the quality of the finished work shows.

What impressed us most was how smoothly Roi kept everything moving. The different trades flowed from one to the next without long delays, and the entire project was completed in about a month. He was also flexible when we changed the scope of work and consistently followed through to make sure everything was done right.

Competitive pricing, excellent workmanship, great communication, and a genuinely positive experience from start to finish. We would happily recommend Roi and R&D Builders!
Response from RnD Builders IncDave! Thank you so much for the kind words and for trusting us with your home. It was a pleasure working with you, and we’re so happy you’re enjoying the finished project!

I connected with Roi via Reddit on a post I had regarding a construction question. I live in Sacramento and Roo lives in LA. I sent him my building plans and we hopped on a call. Roy took the time to speak to me about my plans, go over all of his concerns and details about our project. He did this out of his own time and willingness just to be a helping hand on a project he has 0 financial incentive on. we spoke for over an hour on the phone and provided his professional opinion about my ADU remodel and inspection items I had concerns with. Roi was extremely detailed and went through various scenarios to ensure our course of action and engineering recommendations made sense before spending additional money on our project. I likely will never work with him as I’m on the opposite end of the state but purely based off of my convo with him, if I was in LA I’d love to get the chance to.
Response from RnD Builders IncElliott! It was our pleasure to help and give advise on the current situation you guys have. Thank you for your kind words.

Local know-how

Hidden Hills Local Know-How

Four things that shape a Hidden Hills remodel.

  • Two Approvals, One Plan

    Hidden Hills projects typically move through the Community Association's Architectural Committee and the city's Building and Safety Department. The city does not issue a permit until the plans show architectural approval.

    We prepare drawings that serve both reviews, so the submittal is complete the first time.

  • Exterior Changes Need Approval

    The association's rules cover painting, windows, doors, roofs, landscaping, tree work, driveways, hardscape and retaining walls, not only remodels.

    We list every exterior item in your scope before design starts, so nothing is built without approval.

  • Large Lots and Open Space

    Many lots here are large, and the Upper Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve borders the city to the north, with miles of equestrian and hiking trails.

    We plan access, grading and drainage for the full lot, and we confirm what the site allows before we price.

  • Guest Houses and ADUs

    The city's ADU program sets limits for preapproved plans: detached, single-story, 250 to 800 square feet and up to 16 feet tall. Other ADUs follow the city's ADU rules and state law.

    We confirm which path fits your lot, then handle design, approvals and construction.

What RnD Plans For in Hidden Hills

Official city and community resources that shape most Hidden Hills projects.
RnD Builders plans for each one from the first visit.

  • Architectural approval first

    The Hidden Hills Community Association requires prior approval from its Architectural Committee for all modifications to the exterior of a home or building site, and most work that needs a city building permit also needs this approval.

    HHCA building rules
  • City permit center

    The City of Hidden Hills takes permit applications and plan uploads online, and the checklist includes HOA approval documents, a geotechnical report and a soils report, where they apply.

    City permit center
  • ADUs and JADUs

    The city runs a preapproved ADU program for detached, single-story units of 250 to 800 square feet, and a completed application includes Architectural Committee approval.

    City ADU page
  • Committee overview

    The committee meets on the first and third Mondays of each month, plans are due ten days before a meeting, and the city will not issue a permit without the committee's stamped approval.

Our process

Our Hidden Hills Process

  1. Consultation

    Your specialist meets with you in your Hidden Hills home to gather important details about your vision. We match you with a designer who fits your project and knows the local area. After this visit, our team puts together your initial, no-obligation quote.

  2. Design & Plan

    3D modeling lets you preview your project and make changes before construction begins. We update the rendering until each detail at every scale meets your expectations.

  3. Select Materials

    We partner only with trusted suppliers known for quality. Choose from high-quality and eco-friendly materials, or order custom items to match unique design tastes.

  4. Build Begins

    Once the timeline is set, our team gets to work. Our organized construction phase respects your home and routine while ensuring deadlines are met. If you'd like midproject adjustments, we gladly accommodate them.

  5. Handover

    The final walkthrough involves checking that everything meets your expectations. Only with 100% approval do we hand over the finished space and let you enjoy your updated home.

FAQ

RnD Builders Hidden Hills FAQs

How much does a remodel with RnD Builders cost in Hidden Hills?

Typical RnD Builders ranges: kitchens $35,000 to $150,000, bathrooms $25,000 to $85,000, interior remodels $75,000 to $250,000, garage conversions $140,000 to $200,000, new detached ADUs $220,000 to $350,000, room additions from $450 per square foot and custom homes from $650 per square foot. Architectural submittals and large-lot site work can add to a Hidden Hills project. Larger or more complex projects can run higher, and your written estimate confirms the exact price.

How long does a project take in Hidden Hills?

It depends on the scope. Kitchens are guaranteed within 28 days, bathrooms take about 3 weeks, garage conversions about 3 to 6 weeks for basic work, ADUs are finished within 3 months of the first day of construction, and a whole-home remodel runs 4 to 6 months. Design and permit approval come first on larger projects.

Who handles permits for a Hidden Hills remodel?

RnD Builders prepares the plans and submittals and manages corrections and inspections. In Hidden Hills the plans go to the Community Association's Architectural Committee for approval, and the City of Hidden Hills Building and Safety Department reviews them for code compliance, with applications and plan uploads handled through the city's online permit center.

Can I build an ADU or guest house in Hidden Hills?

Often yes. The City of Hidden Hills has an ADU program, and its preapproved-plan track covers detached, single-story units of 250 to 800 square feet up to 16 feet tall. Any ADU also needs Architectural Committee approval, and we confirm what fits your lot before design. New detached ADUs typically run $220,000 to $350,000, and your written estimate confirms the exact price.

What does a garage conversion cost in Hidden Hills?

Garage conversions typically run $140,000 to $200,000, and basic conversions take about 3 to 6 weeks of construction. Size, utilities and finishes change the number, so we confirm your exact price in a written estimate after we see the garage.

Do I need Architectural Committee approval in Hidden Hills?

Yes for almost any exterior change. The Hidden Hills Community Association states that all modifications to the exterior of any home or building site require prior approval by its Architectural Committee, including remodeling, roofs, windows, doors, landscaping, driveways and retaining walls. We prepare the submittal for you.

Does the city issue a permit before the committee approves?

No. The association states that the city's building inspector will not issue a building permit unless the plans show architectural approval, stamped and signed by two committee members. It also says the committee meets on the first and third Mondays of each month and that plans are due ten days before a meeting. We sequence the work around that schedule and keep you informed at each step, but we do not promise a total approval time.

What does a kitchen remodel cost in Hidden Hills?

Kitchens typically run $35,000 to $150,000, depending on size, layout changes, cabinetry and finishes, and a kitchen is guaranteed within 28 days. Larger kitchens and premium materials can run higher, and we confirm the exact price in a written estimate.

Can I add square footage to my Hidden Hills home?

Yes. Room additions start at $450 per square foot, and we design the changes in 3D first so you can adjust them before construction. Lot size, setbacks and local floor area limits decide how much you can add, so we check them before design starts.

Can RnD Builders build a custom home in Hidden Hills?

Yes. Whether you have a vacant lot or want to demolish and rebuild, we guide you through site evaluation, design, engineering, permits and construction. Custom homes start at $650 per square foot, and your written estimate confirms the price for your site.

Can I see a project RnD Builders completed near Hidden Hills?

Yes. We do not yet have a Hidden Hills project on our site, so this page features our Calabasas home addition and remodel, and we can arrange references during your estimate.

Why hire RnD Builders as your home remodeling contractor in Hidden Hills?

RnD Builders designs, permits and builds under one roof, with 3D renderings before construction, itemized written proposals and a Woodland Hills office serving Hidden Hills. Our office is at 21250 Califa St in Woodland Hills. Whoever you hire, check for a valid California license, a clear written contract and every required permit. RnD Builders is a licensed California general contractor, License #1081122, and you can verify it on the CSLB website. California requires a license for projects that need a permit or total $1,000 or more, so always ask any contractor for their license number.

How does RnD Builders prevent surprise costs in Hidden Hills?

We quote from the exact scope you approve and itemize it, so you can see where the money goes. Large lots can hide drainage, grading and utility conditions. Site conditions are checked on the first visit, and any change is agreed in writing before it is added, so the project stays in line with the budget agreed in your contract.

Which Hidden Hills neighborhoods and nearby cities does RnD Builders serve?

We serve Hidden Hills and the homes around it, from the gated streets to the properties along the trails. Ventura County is our main focus, including Thousand Oaks, Camarillo, Oxnard, Ventura, Simi Valley and Moorpark.
