Home remodeling in Lexington Hills runs $14,000 to $45,000 for a kitchen and $9,000 to $28,000 for a bathroom, with most projects clearing county fire-safe inspection before walls close.

Why San Bruno Construction Is Lexington Hills’s Preferred Home Remodeling Company
San Bruno Construction runs one contract across every phase of a Lexington Hills remodel, from cabinet selection to roofing to ADU scope, so you’re not juggling three different vendors and their competing schedules. Noel Carvalho has steered projects through the county’s wildland-urban interface (WUI) review enough times to know which materials clear Chapter 7A before the first permit lands. That local sequencing, fire clearance before framing, saves Lexington Hills homeowners weeks and thousands in rework.
Our clients here consistently point to the same thing: one accountable point of contact who shows up, calls back, and keeps the subcontractors on the same page. We coordinate the trades so you don’t have to. When a Lexington Hills homeowner calls about a kitchen or a roof, they get a real person who knows the difference between a WUI sign-off and a standard building inspection. That matters on every hillside lot in this community.
Styles & brands we work with
Luxury Home Remodeling in Lexington Hills
Luxury Home Remodeling in Lexington Hills usually means taking a builder-basic interior, often a newer home off the ridge or a remodel of an older redwood cabin, and moving it up to the finishes homeowners actually want, Cambria or Silestone counters, KraftMaid cabinetry, Kohler or Toto fixtures. A full luxury kitchen here typically lands between $30,000 and $45,000 when it includes cabinet replacement, stone countertops, new appliances, and a layout change. Luxury bath work runs $15,000 to $28,000 once you add a walk-in shower, custom vanity, and heated flooring.
Noel and the crew work from a curated brand lineup, so the budget conversation is about options, not settling. We carry access to over 50 vetted product brands across cabinetry, plumbing, countertops, roofing, windows, and doors. You pick from real choices, not whatever the contractor prefers to install.
Designer Kitchens and Baths
Walk-in showers with frameless glass, Caesarstone islands with waterfall edges, and KraftMaid cabinets in finishes that don’t ship from a big-box warehouse. On a Lexington Hills ridge home, we pulled the original oak cabinets and laminate counters, reset the layout, and installed a Kohler rough-in for a deeper sink run before closing up the subfloor.
We sequence fire-safe clearance early on any scope that touches a deck or roofline, so the ignition-resistant materials pass before interior finishes go in.
Whole-Structure Upgrades
When a Lexington Hills luxury remodel expands beyond one room, we handle the full envelope: James Hardie siding, ECO Window Systems or ES Windows packages, and roofing from GAF or CertainTeed rated for WUI exposure. That keeps the exterior and interior under one warranty conversation, one draw schedule, one person to call. Budgets for whole-structure luxury work commonly start around $45,000 and scale with square footage and finish level.
Full Home Remodel in Lexington Hills
A Full Home Remodel in Lexington Hills means opening walls, relocating plumbing rough-ins, and reworking load-bearing paths in homes that were often built decades ago, redwood-and-cedar cabins and ranch-style houses on sloped, wooded lots. These projects typically run $45,000 to $130,000 depending on square footage, structural scope, and whether the county fire-safe clearance triggers a full ignition-resistant roof or deck replacement. We bundle interior and exterior work under one general contract so the permit set and inspections move as a single package.
Homeowners here take this on when the floor plan no longer works, when well and septic tie-ins need modernization, or when a growing family needs a true addition rather than another builder-grade refresh. San Bruno Construction coordinates every licensed specialty trade, plumbing, electrical, framing, roofing, so the homeowner gets one accountable schedule instead of five phone numbers.
Structural and Systems Work
Structural repairs in Lexington Hills often start with the reality that many original footprints were never engineered to current code. We open walls, engineer the load path, and bring the rough framing up to standard before finishes go back in. That sequence prevents the classic failure where a remodel punches into a load-bearing wall without permits and the third-party inspection can’t sign off.
Interior and Exterior Together
Full-scope remodeling in Lexington Hills usually pairs a new kitchen and baths with roof or deck replacement, because the fire-safe clearance is easier to clear once, not twice. We run the roof in GAF or CertainTeed ignition-resistant materials, then move inside for cabinetry, counters, flooring, and fixtures. One contractor, every phase, from countertops to rooflines to ADUs.
Trusted Brands We Service in Lexington Hills
For Lexington Hills window and door scopes, we stock and install from CWS and ECO Window Systems, two lines that hold up to the sun exposure and temperature swings common on these ridge lots. Mr-Glass glass packages come into play on shower enclosures and custom door lites. We keep local availability tight so a window or door replacement doesn’t stall a whole remodel waiting on a part from out of state. Built with brands engineered to last, and selected for how they perform in a fire-prone, WUI-regulated climate, not for what’s cheapest to warehouse.
Common Home Remodeling Problems We See in Lexington Hills Homes
- Builder-grade roofs and decks that fail fire clearance. Owners swap standard materials and then discover Chapter 7A ignition-resistant requirements weren’t scoped. We sequence that review before framing so the sign-off happens cleanly.
- Load-bearing walls opened without permits. A remodel punches through a wall or moves a plumbing rough-in, then the third-party inspection can’t sign off before the walls close. We pull permits and coordinate inspections as part of the contract.
- Verbal allowances and change orders on master-planned homes. The draw schedule and punch list blow past the original scope because changes weren’t put in writing. Every change with us gets a written line item before work continues.
- Well and septic constraints on sloped lots. Older cabins on private systems often can’t support a bathroom addition without a septic upgrade. We scope that early so the remodel doesn’t stall mid-project.

FAQs About Home Remodeling in Lexington Hills
Most builder warranties remain intact if the remodel is done by a licensed general contractor who pulls permits and does not alter the structural systems the warranty covers. What voids warranties is unpermitted work, especially when a wall or plumbing rough-in gets moved without an inspection. We sequence our Lexington Hills remodels around the warranty documents you have, so the finishes change without touching the covered structural elements. Call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll review your warranty before we quote.
Yes, in most cases. Any project that touches the exterior envelope, including a roof replacement, a deck rebuild, or an addition, has to clear Cal Fire’s WUI review and meet Chapter 7A ignition-resistant material standards. A purely interior kitchen or bath remodel with no exterior scope may not trigger it, but the county routinely ties fire-safe clearance to the overall permit set. Call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll tell you what applies to your specific property.
Start with the kitchen and primary bath, because those are the builder-grade finishes that show age first and return the most in daily use. A kitchen with new KraftMaid cabinets and Cambria or Caesarstone counters can run $14,000 to $45,000, while a primary bath redo lands between $9,000 and $28,000. Roof and deck replacements come next if WUI clearance is on the horizon. For a written line-item quote on any of these, call (866) 472-1908.
HOAs in the newer developments often require architectural review before any exterior change, so a window swap, siding color, or roof material has to be approved before we pull the county permit. We submit the plans and product specs to the HOA’s review board, then coordinate that approval with the fire-safe clearance so nothing gets installed twice. Call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll handle the paperwork from day one.
Lexington Hills sits in a high-fire-risk zone, and the county restricts certain exterior work, especially anything involving hot work or heavy equipment, during red-flag periods and peak fire season. That means a roof replacement or a deck rebuild scheduled for late summer can get pushed into fall. We plan Lexington Hills remodels around the seasonal calendar so the interior work continues while exterior scopes wait for clearance. For a timeline that accounts for fire season, call (866) 472-1908.
