Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Anaheim
San Bruno Construction is a full-scope General Contractor serving homeowners throughout Anaheim, from the 1950s tract homes west of the 5 to the newer planned communities in the eastern hills. We handle kitchen and bath remodels, whole-home renovations, room additions, garage conversions, and ADU builds under one contract and one accountable point of contact. If you’re pricing a remodel or addition in Anaheim, call (866) 472-1908 for a free estimate and an inspection-first walkthrough of your home.
What sets us apart in Anaheim specifically is that we know what’s behind these walls before we write a number. The western and central ZIPs (92801, 92802, 92804, 92805) are full of original galvanized plumbing, shallow slab-on-grade foundations, and framing that was never meant to carry today’s loads. A contractor who quotes these homes without opening walls is guessing. We don’t guess.
Why San Bruno Construction Is Anaheim’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Anaheim homeowners keep calling us back for one reason: we write honest numbers and we stand behind them. The first time we walk a home near Pearson Park or the Colony, we’re looking for what other contractors skip. Original stucco-over-wood-frame. Aging drain lines. Ceiling joists that have been notched one too many times. Those findings shape the quote you get, not surprise you later.
Noel Carvalho leads our team, and he’s built San Bruno Construction around a simple practice: inspect first, write allowances into the contract, and never touch a wall until any scope change is priced and approved in writing. That discipline matters most in Anaheim’s older tract stock, where opening up a wall on a 1962 ranch in 92804 can reveal a re-pipe and reframe that the city will require before sign-off.
We coordinate the trades so you don’t have to. Plumbing, electrical, framing, drywall, finish carpentry, roofing, and hardscape are all scheduled through one office and one contract. For Anaheim homeowners who have lived through the chaos of managing three separate vendors, that’s the difference between a project that finishes and one that lingers.
Styles & brands we work with
Construction Company in Anaheim
A Construction Company in Anaheim has to be equipped for two very different job sites: the 1950s – 1970s tract homes that dominate 92801 – 92805, and the 1980s – 2000s planned-community homes with HOA design-review requirements in 92807 and 92808. San Bruno Construction handles both. We pull permits, schedule inspections, coordinate licensed specialty trades, and manage material delivery from our 50+ brand portfolio so you’re never waiting on a cabinet order or a roofing shipment.
Room Additions and Garage Conversions
Anaheim’s flat inland lots in 92801 and 92804 are classic infill territory. A room addition here typically runs $45,000 – $130,000 depending on square footage, foundation work, and whether the existing structure needs structural upgrades to tie in. Garage conversions to state ADU law run $30,000 – $80,000, and we handle the full scope: framing, insulation, electrical, plumbing tie-ins, drywall, and finish work.
ADU and Prefab Structure Installation
ADU construction in Anaheim runs $90,000 – $220,000, and we’re one of the few residential contractors in the area with direct access to prefab lines like Abodu, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, and Plant Prefab. For Anaheim homeowners who want a faster path to a permitted ADU, prefab changes the timeline dramatically. We handle site prep, foundation, utility connections, and all coordinating trades while the factory builds the unit.
Remodeling Contractor in Anaheim
A Remodeling Contractor in Anaheim working the older tract stock has to plan for what the demo reveals. The western ZIPs were built when galvanized supply lines and 2×4 ceiling joists were standard. Half the remodels we start in 92805 uncover something the last remodel covered up. We budget for it from day one, in writing, so the number you sign is the number you pay unless you approve a documented change.
Kitchen and Bath Remodels
Kitchen remodels in Anaheim run $14,000 – $45,000. Bathroom remodels run $9,000 – $28,000. Those ranges include the materials you choose from our brand portfolio: KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone countertops, Kohler, Moen, Grohe, and Toto plumbing fixtures. We don’t push one brand. We show you options across premium and mid-range price points and let you decide where to spend.
Whole-Home Renovations
Whole-home remodels on Anaheim’s older tract homes almost always trigger permit-driven code upgrades once walls are open: moisture barriers where none existed, drain size corrections, sometimes structural headers. We write those allowances into the contract up front and price every change order before work continues. You’ll never get a surprise invoice from a sub you never met.
We opened up a kitchen wall in a 1958 tract home off West Orange Avenue in 92805 and found galvanized supply lines and 2×4 ceiling joists that had been notched for a previous remodel. We stopped work, wrote a change order for re-pipe and sistering, got it approved in writing the same day, and then completed the rough-in with new copper and proper load-bearing headers before the city inspector signed off. That’s how we work in Anaheim.
Trusted Brands We Service in Anaheim
Anaheim homeowners choose from a curated lineup of industry-leading brands, not whatever the contractor prefers to install. For windows and exterior envelope work, we regularly install ES Windows and ECO Window Systems, both engineered for the heat-cycling and Santa Ana wind exposure that Anaheim’s semi-arid climate throws at a house. We also work with CWS and Mr-Glass for specialty window and glass applications where the project calls for it. Because we buy across 50+ vetted brands, your budget decisions stay yours. We coordinate the ordering, delivery, and installation so materials arrive when the work sequence needs them, not before.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Anaheim Homes
- Original galvanized plumbing: Homes built in the 1950s through 1970s across 92801 – 92805 often still have galvanized supply lines. They corrode from the inside, restrict flow, and fail when disturbed during a remodel. We plan for re-pipe allowances on any job that opens walls or floors.
- Undersized or notched framing: Tract-home ceiling joists from this era were sized to minimum code and often got notched by earlier remodels. When we open a wall or ceiling, we check load paths before we hang drywall. Sistering and proper headers get written into the change order the same day.
- Failed waterproofing in showers and tub surrounds: Anaheim’s hot dry summers and occasional winter rain stress older waterproofing systems. We regularly find rot and mold behind tile in 1960s ranch homes. We strip to the studs, replace damaged framing, and install a modern moisture barrier before tile goes back.
- Permit-triggered code upgrades: Once walls are open, Anaheim building inspectors require current code compliance: moisture barriers, drain size minimums, sometimes GFCI circuits. Contractors who skip the pre-inspection find out at sign-off, causing rework and delays. We find out before drywall, when it’s cheap to fix.

FAQs About General Contractor in Anaheim
Because Anaheim’s 1950s – 1970s tract homes in 92801 – 92805 were built with galvanized plumbing and minimum-code framing that previous remodels often compromised. When walls open, inspectors require code compliance: re-pipes, moisture barriers, sometimes structural headers. We write allowances for these into the original contract so a change order is a documented adjustment, not a surprise. Call (866) 472-1908 for a quote that accounts for your home’s age.
We inspect before we quote and again before we close walls. If the city requires a drain size correction, a moisture barrier, or GFCI circuits once the framing is exposed, we document it, price it, and get your written approval before the work continues. Nobody on our team touches a wall until you’ve signed off on the number. Call (866) 472-1908 to talk through what your project is likely to trigger.
Expect restricted water flow, visible corrosion at joints, and a high chance the lines will fail when disturbed during a remodel. In most Anaheim tract homes from this era, re-piping to copper or PEX is the right call. We’ll price the re-pipe as part of the remodel and handle the permit and inspection. Call (866) 472-1908 for a free walkthrough of your plumbing condition.
We schedule deliveries, concrete pours, and any exterior work around the Disneyland and Convention Center calendar. Street closures, event traffic, and parking restrictions around the Resort District affect staging and truck access, so we plan material drops and crane picks for off-peak windows. Anaheim’s permit and inspection schedule also runs around the Convention Center calendar, and we work within those timing constraints. Call (866) 472-1908 to talk about your project’s schedule.
Yes. We help Anaheim homeowners choose cabinetry, countertops, plumbing fixtures, and finishes from our 50+ brand portfolio, including KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets and Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone countertops. You’ll see real options across price points and make the call on where to spend. Call (866) 472-1908 to start your kitchen remodel in Anaheim.
