AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Hollywood
Kitchen remodeling in Hollywood, CA typically costs between $14,000 and $45,000, with the final number driven by cabinet line, countertop material, and whether your home sits on the flatlands or in the Hills. We’re Penhallow Remodeling, and we work across Hollywood from the 1920s bungalow courts south of Franklin to the mid-century homes above Mulholland. Our crews know the difference between a flat-lot remodel and a canyon-access job, because those two projects share almost nothing except a ZIP code. Call (936) 259-2607 for a written price before any work starts.
Why Penhallow Remodeling Is Hollywood’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Hollywood homeowners call us after someone else dropped the ball. That’s not marketing copy; it’s the pattern we see every month. A cabinet order that sat for eight weeks. A hood that couldn’t vent through an exterior wall under hillside fire code. A crew that stopped answering calls after demo day. Trevor Nash built Penhallow Remodeling around the Kingswell standard: a written price before work starts, a real arrival window, and a 365-day promise to make it right if anything fails. Every technician is background-checked and arrives in uniform, so you know exactly who’s in your home.
We’re part of the Kingswell family of companies, operating to The Kingswell Way since 2004. That means the guarantees aren’t new to us. A live person answers our phones 24/7, not a voicemail maze. If a repair fails inside the guarantee period, we come back at no charge. No service call fee, no re-inspection fee. That’s the promise, in writing, on every Hollywood kitchen we touch.
Kitchen Renovation in Hollywood
A full kitchen renovation in Hollywood usually means taking a pre-war galley or a dated hillside kitchen down to the studs and rebuilding it with new cabinetry, countertops, lighting, plumbing rough-in, and appliances. On the flatlands, especially in the Spanish Colonial Revival and Art Deco buildings from the 1920s through 1940s, we’re often working around original structural adobe or historic stucco details that need careful permitting. In the Hills, the work shifts toward fire-rated assemblies, retaining walls, and access planning. A full renovation runs $14,000 to $45,000 in Hollywood depending on cabinet line, stone choice, and whether load-bearing walls move.
Design and Layout Coordination
Trevor coordinates directly with architects and designers on Hollywood jobs, particularly in the Hills where custom millwork and architectural glass drive both the schedule and the number. We don’t hand you a drawing and walk away. We sit at the table, talk through cabinet specs, and order only after the written price is approved.
Long-Lead Procurement and Scheduling
On this tier, lead times set the calendar. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone slabs, pro hoods, custom millwork, specialty glass: these don’t ship in a week. We order from recognized trade brands once the price is fixed in writing, so nothing sits idle waiting on a slab that was never scheduled.
Cabinet Installation in Hollywood
Cabinet installation in Hollywood runs $4,000 to $13,000 for a typical kitchen, depending on whether you’re installing new semi-custom boxes like KraftMaid maple or refacing existing frames in an older Hollywood flatlands unit. In hillside homes where wall runs are irregular and floors aren’t level, we spend real time shimming and scribing so doors align. It’s slower work, but it’s the difference between cabinets that close properly and cabinets that bind in six months.
Custom and Semi-Custom Cabinet Work
For Hollywood kitchens with non-standard footprints, especially in mid-century hillside homes where nothing is square, we spec semi-custom or custom cabinetry. The lead time is longer, often by weeks, but the fit is right the first time. We coordinate templating and box delivery so the cabinet order doesn’t sit in your garage waiting on a countertop.
Refacing in Pre-War Units
In 1920s courtyard apartments and bungalow courts on the flatlands, refacing is often the only cabinet option that makes sense when original built-ins are worth keeping. We install new doors, drawer fronts, and hardware over structurally sound boxes. It costs less than full replacement and keeps the period character intact.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
We install and service cabinetry and fixtures from KraftMaid, Wellborn, Kohler, Moen, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone, so the products behind our guarantee are as solid as the promise itself. For Hollywood customers, we stock common replacement parts locally and coordinate brand-specific warranty claims so you’re not the one on hold with a manufacturer. If you have existing Abodu or Cover fixtures in a recent ADU kitchen, our team can work with those systems during a remodel. We’ve also coordinated with Dvele and Sakrete product specs on hillside projects where fire-rated deck and vent assemblies matter.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- VHFHSZ venting and eave requirements. In the Hollywood Hills, exterior wall penetrations for range hoods need fire-rated assemblies that flatland homes a mile south don’t require. We coordinate these details before drywall, not after inspection.
- Cabinet and stone lead times treated as an afterthought. Rough-in and inspection sign-off happen fast, then the job stalls for months waiting on a Cambria or KraftMaid order. We sequence procurement so the countertop template and cabinet delivery land the same week.
- Single-lane canyon driveway access. On steep lots off Beachwood, Laurel, or Nichols Canyons, a slab truck or concrete pour has to be engineered around the street. Jobs that skip this planning slip when the truck can’t make the turn.
- Inspection sequencing on pre-war stock. Permitting on 1920s – 1940s buildings gets scoped as red tape, then the third-party inspector finds what’s actually behind the walls and the sign-off forces a tear-out. We sequence inspection after rough-in so nothing gets buried.
Pricing for Kitchen Remodeling in Hollywood, CA
Here’s what Hollywood homeowners should expect to pay, in real numbers:
| Service | Hollywood Price Range |
|---|---|
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |

What moves the number isn’t labor; it’s materials and access. A hillside kitchen with a Cambria slab, fire-rated vent penetration, and custom cabinetry lands at the top of the range. A flatlands galley with stock cabinets and a simple layout lands lower. Either way, you get a written price before we order anything, and that number is the number on the invoice.

FAQs About Kitchen Remodeling in Hollywood
Because lead times on custom millwork, stone, and appliances set the calendar, not labor. In the Hollywood Hills, a hood that vents through an exterior wall near Beachwood or Nichols Canyon needs a fire-rated penetration detail, and that detail has to be coordinated with the cabinet order and the countertop template before framing. If procurement isn’t sequenced, the job sits idle for months. Call (936) 259-2607 to talk through your timeline, and we’ll give you a written schedule along with the written price.
Yes. Properties in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, which covers much of the Hollywood Hills above Mulholland, require non-combustible venting, eaves, and deck assemblies on kitchen additions and exterior vent hood terminations. A hood that vents through a wall off Beachwood or Nichols Canyon requires a fire-rated penetration that wouldn’t be mandated a mile south toward Melrose. We coordinate those details before drywall.
Yes, and we do it carefully. Many 1920s – 1940s buildings in the Hollywood flatlands are under historic survey scrutiny, and original stucco, tile, and structural adobe elements may require special permitting. We work within those constraints, refacing original built-ins where it makes sense and coordinating with third-party inspectors so nothing is torn out after sign-off.
We write the number down. Not a range, not a ballpark. You approve the written line-item price before we place a single cabinet or slab order. If the work fails inside the 365-day window, we return and fix it at no charge. That’s the Kingswell standard, in writing, on every Hollywood job.
