Get a transparent, project-based price for your LA studio renovation. We handle permits, electrical, plumbing, and full reconfigurations. Serving Westwood, Pacific Palisades, and the entire Westside. Contact us for a site visit. A studio apartment renovation in Los Angeles is a comprehensive construction and finishing process designed to completely transform an open-concept space. Unlike a simple paint-and-patch job, a full remodel addresses the core structure of your unit. This includes demolition, reconfiguring layouts for better zoning, replacing outdated plumbing and electrical systems, and leveling floors and walls. Given the premium on every square foot in LA studios, the goal is to maximize functionality without sacrificing style. Whether you need a dedicated sleeping area, a efficient kitchen layout, or a home office nook, we turn a blank canvas into a smart, livable home. We integrate modern soundproofing solutions to ensure neighbors in bustling West Hollywood or Venice don't disrupt your peace.
Who Benefits from This Service?
Our renovation services are perfect for owners of condos and co-ops across the Westside and beyond. If you've just purchased a property in the hills of Hollywood, a fixer-upper near UCLA in Westwood, or a beachside unit in Santa Monica or Malibu, we'll tailor it to 2026 standards. We work with a diverse clientele: from young professionals and tech workers to retirees downsizing for a move to Pacific Palisades, and investors looking to flip or rent out units in Brentwood or Bel-Air. A full renovation is essential when the electrical panel can't handle modern appliances, or when your studio in West Hollywood needs a full reconfiguration to attract quality tenants.
What's Included in Our Full-Service Package?
We offer a true, start-to-finish process. It begins with demolition and debris hauling. Next comes the rough-in phase: pouring a self-leveling concrete floor underlayment, hanging and finishing drywall, and building custom soffits or niches. We then handle all MEP work (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) — running new wiring in conduits (potentially for smart home systems), repiping water lines, and installing new HVAC and ventilation. The finishing phase includes priming and painting, installing flooring, and setting trim and fixtures. Our project manager coordinates all city permits and inspections. We typically schedule a site visit for an estimate within 24-48 hours of your inquiry. All timelines and quotes are detailed in a transparent proposal before we break ground.
Our Process and Materials: How We Work
Every successful studio remodel starts with a precise, laser-measured floor plan. This is critical for oddly shaped layouts often found in older building stock in West Hollywood and the flats of Beverly Hills. For flooring, we handle everything from floating LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) installations to hardwood nailed or glued down. We use professional-grade cementitious or gypsum-based patching compounds to ensure a perfectly flat substrate before any finish flooring goes down. For walls, we apply two coats of joint compound, sand smooth, and finish with premium, low-VOC paints—perfect for LA's eco-conscious homeowners. Baseboards and casings are installed after painting for a seamless, professional gap-free finish, a detail expected in high-value properties from Bel-Air to Brentwood.
Navigating LA's Neighborhoods and Project Pricing
We understand that remodeling in LA comes with unique logistical challenges that vary by neighborhood. Prestigious areas like Bel-Air and Brentwood often have strict HOA guidelines regarding noise, work hours, and material delivery. Working in dynamic, high-density neighborhoods like Venice requires us to be agile with parking arrangements for our crews and material trucks. While online searches often show average costs, the reality is that pricing is always project-based. The final estimate depends on your specific square footage, the existing condition of the drywall and subfloor, the complexity of the plumbing and electrical work, and your finish material selections. We provide a detailed bid after our in-person consultation.
Our Commitment to Quality and Detail
We pride ourselves on professionalism and protecting your investment. During construction, we seal off work areas with plastic barriers and use HEPA-filtered air scrubbers to contain dust. We have extensive experience with all types of residential properties, from high-rise condos in Santa Monica to classic courtyard apartments in Westwood. Our crews are skilled in the precise installation of built-in appliances, panel-ready dishwashers, and whole-home water filtration systems—popular features throughout California. When we're done, you're not just getting new paint; you're getting a fully finished, permitted, and ready-to-enjoy home designed for the way you live in Los Angeles.
