Remodeling Company in North Hollywood, CA
Home remodeling in North Hollywood usually costs between $14,000 and $130,000 depending on whether you’re redoing a single room or adding square footage, and most mid-size projects land in the $18,000 to $55,000 range. What makes North Hollywood different is the housing stock itself: block after block of 1950s and ’60s ranch homes and dingbat apartments, many still carrying original framing, original stucco, and plumbing that’s been fighting Valley hard water for sixty years. We’re Penhallow Remodeling, and we put a written price and a written guarantee in front of you before a single wall comes down. Call (213) 277-6578 for a free estimate.
Why North Hollywood Homes Are Different
North Hollywood sits in the San Fernando Valley, where summers run hot and dry and winter rains arrive in short, heavy bursts. That cycle of expansion and contraction works stucco and concrete hard. Hairline cracks show up in exterior walls, slab foundations shift a fraction, and older windows lose their seal. It is not dramatic, but it is constant, and it shapes how we approach any remodel here.
The housing stock is dominated by single-story ranch homes and dingbat apartments built in the 1950s and ’60s. These are wood-frame structures with stucco exteriors, and after six decades they tend to share the same issues: dry rot where sprinklers hit siding, termite damage in the bottom plates, and galvanized steel plumbing that has corroded from the inside out. The water in this part of the Valley is hard enough that we regularly replace original galvanized supply lines during kitchen and bath remodels in neighborhoods like Valley Village, Toluca Woods, and the NoHo Arts District. If you’re planning a whole-home remodel in an older North Hollywood property, the plumbing and the framing deserve honest inspection before you spend money on finishes.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main North Hollywood Services
Most homeowners who call us in North Hollywood are starting with one of three projects: a general contractor to run a multi-trade job, a bathroom remodel, or a kitchen remodel. Here is how each one works in this city.
General Contractor in North Hollywood
When a North Hollywood home needs coordinated work across plumbing, electrical, framing, and finishes, a general contractor keeps the job moving in one direction. Older ranch homes here often hide surprises behind the walls, from corroded galvanized pipe to framing that predates current seismic code. We handle the permit path, the trade scheduling, and the written price before work starts. General Contractor in North Hollywood.
Bathroom Remodeling in North Hollywood
Bathroom remodels in North Hollywood frequently uncover water damage that has been sitting behind tile or under a tub for years, especially in 1950s homes where original shower pans have failed. We plan for what’s behind the wall, not just what covers it. Bathroom Remodeling in North Hollywood.
Kitchen Remodeling in North Hollywood
Kitchen remodels in North Hollywood range from cabinet and countertop refreshes in a Valley Village ranch to full gut renovations in NoHo Arts District condos. The layout challenges are real: small original footprints, load-bearing walls where you’d want an open plan, and old supply lines that need replacing before cabinets go in.

Home Remodeling in North Hollywood
Home remodeling in North Hollywood means working with the house you actually have, not the house a stock plan assumes. The typical property here is a wood-frame ranch or dingbat apartment from the Eisenhower and Kennedy years, and the work usually starts with questions the finishes can’t answer: Is the framing sound? Has the stucco trapped moisture? Are the supply lines galvanized steel that’s down to a pencil’s width of flow? The Valley’s hot, dry summers and heavy winter rains put real stress on these structures, and a remodel that ignores the bones of the house is a remodel you’ll pay for twice. We scope every North Hollywood project from the substrate out, so the number we write down covers what the house actually needs. If you’re considering a larger project, start with our Home Remodeling page for the full picture.

What pushes a North Hollywood remodel toward the top of those ranges is usually what we find inside the walls: corroded galvanized supply lines, termite-damaged sill plates, or framing that needs seismic upgrades to meet current code. Older homes in the Valley also tend to need more prep work on stucco and concrete before new finishes go on. Whatever the number ends up being, you get it in writing before we start, and that written price is the price.
