The Signature Collection
Future living, considered.
Four architectural concepts that explore how KB Remodeling thinks about material, light and the way a home is lived in — from a courtyard estate to a hillside house.
These are design concepts, not listings or KB projects. Nothing here is for sale, for lease, reserved, permitted or under construction. ZIP codes give design context only and do not identify a property.

01 / What we build
Built around the whole property.
Two construction services — whole-home remodeling and ADUs — shaped by the existing home and the site. Planning a new house instead? The new-home path follows below.
Whole-home remodeling
Coordinate layout, kitchens, baths, structure, building systems and finishes as a connected scope — not isolated room updates.
Explore remodeling
Accessory dwelling units
Evaluate the type of ADU, site access, utilities, privacy and the connection to the existing home before a build path is set.
Explore ADUsFoundation Repair
Foundation Repair & Earthquake Retrofitting
KB Remodeling offers foundation construction, earthquake retrofitting, contractor foundation inspection, foundation repair and foundation replacement across Greater Los Angeles. Every job starts with a site evaluation; we coordinate the engineer and permit the work requires and build to the approved plans.
- Foundation repairCracks, settlement and damaged concrete, after the cause is understood.
- Foundation constructionNew footings, stem walls and slabs for additions and ADUs.
- Earthquake retrofittingBolting and cripple-wall bracing for raised wood-frame houses.
- Foundation inspectionA contractor evaluation of visible conditions — not an engineering report.
- Foundation replacementPartial or full replacement with temporary support, when repair is not enough.
New-home planning
Building new from the lot up?
Some properties call for a new house rather than a remodel or an added unit. Compare the three paths, then follow the one that fits your lot.
| Decision | New custom home | Whole-home remodel | ADU |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starting point | Vacant lot, or an existing house to be replaced | A house worth keeping, with layout or systems to change | A main house that stays; space on the lot for a second unit |
| Design team | Architect or designer, structural and often soils engineer, surveyor | Designer or architect; engineer when structure changes | Designer or architect; engineer as the unit type requires |
| Main questions | Zoning, slope, soils, utilities, demolition | Existing conditions, phasing, living arrangements | Access, utilities, setbacks, unit type |
