Our Recent Residential Remodeling Work
This Carmel Valley kitchen and master bath remodel demonstrates how smart design transforms a space. The large island became the focal point and ideal spot for entertaining. Reconfiguring the appliance layout added valuable storage, including a spacious walk-in pantry.
The classic design is accented with vibrant pops of color, white cabinetry, marbled quartz countertops, and rich wood floors. Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances bring the dream kitchen to life.
Upstairs, the master bath was reimagined with dual vanities, a spacious walk-in shower, and a luxurious soaking tub, blending style with function.
We’re here to offer expert advice and support-whether you are seeking general guidance on a remodel or new-build project, or have questions about specific products you are considering for your home.

I hired Lars do to a complete top-to-bottom home renovation and they did a spectacular job. From the moment I met Lars’ President Brandon Spann I was very impressed by his professionalism and direct, clear communication. The entire Lars team was outstanding. I worked closely with in-house Senior Interior Designer Danni Greenstein putting together a comprehensive design plan, and with Project Manager Paul Harte throughout the entire construction process. Both are top notch professionals. Paul’s right hand man Alfredo was an integral contributor throughout the construction, ensuring everything met my expectations. I am extremely pleased with the result- it’s no surprise Lars continues to be an award-winning leader in the industry. Highly recommend!

- A V.We attended the Lars Remodeling event over the weekend. It was incredibly informative and educational. The hosted event was well curated with engaging speakers and a spectacular brunch spread. We have a consultation scheduled this Thursday with one of their representatives. We are looking forward to what we might be able to achieve in our new home with their help.

- Leanne S.We are working with Lars on a home remodel project. From the first meeting with our project manager Ken, it was apparent that our wants and needs were a priority to him and the rest at Lars. We’ve now had quite a few meetings finalizing selections with Wendy & Janice and every meeting is amazing. Wendy has paid close attention to detail with our budget and overall plan, and we have enjoyed learning from her expertise. I never thought plumbing and picking fixtures could be fun, but Christie made it so fun (and informative!) We have had the best experience with the whole Lars team and will be recommending them over and over again!

- Analisa P.The Lars team completed a full remodel of our home a year and a half ago, and every single day, we’re grateful for the beautiful space they designed and built. Our project wasn’t easy. Living on an environmentally sensitive canyon meant navigating a challenging permitting process, but Lars knew exactly how to design something that could actually get approved—and built.

Our project wasn’t easy. Living on an environmentally sensitive canyon meant navigating a challenging permitting process, but Lars knew exactly how to design something that could actually get approved—and built.
One of our biggest dreams was a larger kitchen. Before we found Lars, we had two architects try to make it work, but neither could figure out how to bring our vision to life. Then Lars came in and solved the problem beautifully. Now, we have a kitchen we absolutely love.
From start to finish, the team was responsive, professional, and truly committed to making our home everything we hoped for. We never imagined our old, outdated house could be transformed into something so spectacular, but thanks to Lars, it’s now a space we love and cherish every day.
- Amy D.There are not enough positive adjectives to describe our experience with Lars. We had an addition and total house remodel done by Lars to meet our multigenerational needs. We were in need of a construction company because our current company had gone bankrupt. We met Brandon quite by accident and there was an immediate sense that all four of the adults just knew this was the right fit for us. There was a trust and a comfort level we had not experienced prior to meeting with him. Then we had the pleasure of working with Erica, the perfect designer! She just had a sense for what our wishes were and fit them to our budget. She had amazing suggestions that we incorporated into our home. We’ve been back in our home now for 6 months and I think I am still thanking her daily for her input on something we love. Then we were able to work with Owen, the best project manager on earth! Owen kept everything moving along so well that we actually finished ahead of schedule by weeks! He offered suggestions that made our house look amazing. We met with him weekly to check the progress. And Randy did a wonderful job with all of our punch list items. He is very detailed and things were perfectly finished off. These people were all so amazing and communication with any of them was superb. I simply cannot stress enough how communication was a key component with the success of our project. We would give Lars 10 stars if we could!

- Devon A.I hired LARs to do an addition to my home. I wanted a company that I could trust. I had a deadline in which the work absolutely needed to be completed. They promised to meet that deadline. Not only did they meet it they got the permits, asked if it was okay to start the project early and completed it months ahead of my deadline. From the beginning Wendy our design consultant had amazing suggestions and ideas. And she listened to what we liked and helped us to design a gorgeous space that I love. Christie and Wendy helped us pick out the perfect features for our new space. And I cannot say enough about our project manager Memo. He was there everyday overseeing every aspect of the project. He was patient with my concerns and questions always responding and addressing the smallest of things. I am so pleased with the addition and would recommend this team again and again!

- Tracy D.What should I expect from a custom home remodel?
When you decide to remodel your home in San Diego, count on our team of experienced builders and talented home design contractors to handle every stage of the design-build process diligently and professionally. We apply a wide range of skills to transform your living space with style and precision:
How long should my whole home remodeling project take?
We’ll discuss the length of your project during an initial consultation. Although the scope of a project will determine its length, we can provide you with an approximate estimate early on.
For more information, get in touch with our home remodeling contractors in San Diego. We’ll ask you a series of detailed questions about the upcoming home remodel, which will help us prepare a preliminary estimate.
How much should I budget for home remodeling?
It’s the complexity of each remodel, as well as the desired goals and needs of each client, that makes each project unique. Besides the type and size of your home improvement in San Diego, the cost of materials needed plays a key role in setting up the budget.
Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions regarding the final costs of the project and consult with our experts directly. Our home design contractors will be happy to answer all of them and provide you with a more accurate estimate.
What should I know before adding on to my house?
Before adding a room addition to your San Diego property, conduct a thorough inspection of your home and clarify your objectives:
Finally, you should know who to turn to for advanced assistance. Luckily, there’s a reputable local company serving San Diego communities. We at Lars Remodeling & Design would be happy to offer a detailed outline of the key aspects of your project.
Is it safe to live in a house while renovating?
For substantial additions or major renovations, it might be a good idea to think about staying somewhere else. To stick to your budget, you could stay with friends or family, or rent a place nearby so you can easily keep an eye on the remodeling progress. As experienced remodeling contractors, we’re eager to learn more about your project and explore all your options with you. Don’t hesitate to give us a call!
Is renovating an old house worth it?
Absolutely. However, the value of such a renovation largely depends on factors like the property’s location, the extent of work required, and the current market conditions. For any home design or design-build project, it’s advisable to consult directly with our experienced contractors. We’ll access your San Diego residence to identify the type of remodel that would offer you the best return on investment.
Do I have to obtain any permits for my home renovation?
It’s likely you’ll need a building permit if your remodeling project involves expanding your home, adding onto it, or modifying a load-bearing wall. Working with us means everything will be handled meticulously and diligently. You can finally relax knowing a licensed general contractor will take care of permits and building codes on your behalf.
When is the best time to start a home remodeling project?
Your schedule and lifestyle dictate when to begin a home renovation. Interior projects such as kitchen or bathroom remodels can be done all year round since they’re not affected by the weather. On the other hand, exterior improvement projects, such as outdoor living spaces or outdoor kitchens, are also often done throughout the year, but summer is probably the most popular time for them.
Will a room addition add value to my home?
Absolutely. When properly planned and executed, a room addition can enhance the overall functionality of a home and improve its appearance. While all improvements can increase the value of your property, ROI will differ depending on various factors.
Nonetheless, there are a few things to consider before you proceed: Is your plan to add new rooms or to expand the existing floor plan? Do you expect lower home maintenance with your room addition? Give our remodeling contractors a call and talk with a local expert architect or designer about your ideas for the best results.
