RnD Builders: Home Remodeling Contractor in West Hills

West Hills homeowners usually know exactly what they want, and the work is getting it built the right way. RnD Builders is a design-build team that plans, permits and builds remodels, additions, ADUs and outdoor projects, and we have completed full remodels right here in West Hills.

West Hills is part of the City of Los Angeles, so plans and permits go through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. Also, lADBS offers pre-approved ADU plans, and parcels near the Santa Susana foothills can fall in mapped fire hazard zones that require wildland-urban interface construction. We also check your parcel first.

West Hills is next door to our Woodland Hills office at 21250 Califa St, and our crews know the area. Our West Hills projects range from a 1960s house turned into a modern home to a complete home remodel with a new kitchen, baths and fireplace.

Local know-how

West Hills Local Know-How

Four things that shape a West Hills project.

  • Valley Homes That Need Updating

    Many West Hills homes date from the mid-century, with closed-off floor plans and original systems.

    We check conditions behind walls and floors before we price, then plan the layout in 3D.

  • Fire Zone and Hillside Lots

    Parcels near the Santa Susana foothills can fall in mapped fire hazard zones or hillside areas.

    We check your parcel early and design to those requirements from the first drawing.

  • LADBS Permits

    West Hills projects follow City of Los Angeles building rules, with plan check, permits and inspections through LADBS.

    We prepare complete submittals and manage corrections.

  • ADUs and Garage Conversions

    Many West Hills lots fit a detached ADU, and a garage conversion is a common route.

    We confirm feasibility for your lot, then handle design, permits and construction as one project.

West Hills Full Home Remodel

A complete transformation in the west San Fernando Valley

This West Hills full home remodel was a complete transformation, from the kitchen and bathrooms to the fireplace and flooring.

We installed white oak hardwood floors throughout the home. In addition, the kitchen now has a combination of green and white cabinets with Caesarstone quartz countertops, and the two full bathrooms and one powder room were fully renovated.

Also, the living room fireplace was wrapped in brown aluminum wood paneling for a sleek, contemporary look. The project also included new drywall, upgraded electrical and plumbing, and fresh exterior paint.

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.

FAQ

RnD Builders West Hills FAQs

Who issues permits in West Hills?

West Hills is part of the City of Los Angeles, so the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety reviews plans, issues permits and inspects the work. RnD Builders also prepares the plans and submittals and manages corrections and inspections.

Can I see a remodel RnD Builders completed in West Hills?

Yes. Our West Hills projects are linked on this page, such as a complete home remodel with a green and white kitchen, two full baths and a fireplace, and a 1960s house turned into a modern home. We can also arrange references during your estimate.

Does LADBS have pre-approved ADU plans for West Hills homes?

Yes. LADBS runs a Standard Plan Program that pre-approves ADU plans, which shortens plan check when the plan fits your site. We also help you choose between a pre-approved plan and a custom design.

Does RnD Builders work on West Hills lots in fire or hillside areas?

Yes. Also, parcels near the Santa Susana foothills can fall in mapped fire hazard zones, which require wildland-urban interface construction, and hillside lots need real engineering. We also check your parcel at the first visit.

Can you open up a closed-off West Hills floor plan?

Often. Wall removals are one of the most common requests in older Valley homes, and one of our West Hills projects turned a 1960s house into a modern home with major wall removals. We confirm what is structural before we price.

Which West Hills neighborhoods does RnD Builders serve?

We serve Platt Village, Fallbrook and the West Hills foothills, plus Woodland Hills, Porter Ranch, Chatsworth, Calabasas and the rest of the San Fernando Valley. In addition, ask us if you are not sure we cover your address.

How much does remodeling with RnD Builders cost in West Hills?

West Hills homeowners usually ask about three numbers first: kitchens at $35,000 to $150,000, bathrooms at $25,000 to $85,000 and interior remodels at $75,000 to $250,000. Beyond those, garage conversions run $140,000 to $200,000, detached ADUs $220,000 to $350,000, additions start at $450 per square foot and custom homes at $650. Site conditions can also change a project. Your estimate itemizes every cost element, and larger or more complex projects can also run higher.

How long does a project take in West Hills?

Timelines follow the work. A kitchen is guaranteed within 28 days, a bathroom takes about 3 weeks and a basic garage conversion 3 to 6 weeks, while a detached ADU takes up to 3 months from the first day of construction and a whole-home remodel 4 to 6 months. We set realistic timelines at the start.

What does kitchen remodeling cost in West Hills?

Kitchens generally 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 also run higher, and we confirm the exact price in a written estimate after we see your space.

Can I remodel and expand my West Hills house?

Yes. Also, room additions, kitchen remodeling and whole-home renovations are all part of our work in West Hills, and additions start at $450 per square foot. We design the changes in 3D first so you can adjust them before construction.

What does an ADU cost in West Hills?

New detached ADUs generally run $220,000 to $350,000, and garage conversions $140,000 to $200,000, depending on size, site conditions and finishes. Rents and returns vary, so we scope the design and costs with you and do not promise a specific payback. Your written estimate confirms the exact price.

Can RnD Builders build a custom home from scratch in West Hills?

Yes. Whether you have a vacant lot or want to demolish and rebuild, we guide you through site evaluation, architectural design, structural engineering, permits and construction. Custom homes start at $650 per square foot and generally take 11 to 20 months.

How does RnD Builders prevent surprise costs in West Hills?

We price from what we can see and verify on the first visit, and we list it line by line. On older homes we check framing, plumbing and electrical before pricing. Any change is agreed in writing before work on it begins, so the project stays in line with the budget agreed in your contract.

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

One team handles design, permits and construction, so plans are drawn with the build in mind. In addition, rnD Builders gives West Hills homeowners 3D renderings, itemized written proposals and a single point of contact. Our office is in Woodland Hills. Whoever you hire, confirm the license, the written contract and the permits. Also, you can check us on the CSLB website: RnD Builders is a licensed California general contractor, License #1081122. State law requires a license for projects that need a permit or total $1,000 or more, so ask every contractor for a number.
