Design-Build Remodeling · Kapolei, Oahu

The kitchen, bath, or home
you've been planning.

You've had the idea for a while. Maybe a sketch, maybe just a feeling. A licensed Oahu team will tell you exactly what it costs, who's running it, and when you'll have your keys back.

What we build

Every room. One team.

From a single bathroom to a full-home renovation, the same licensed crew and the same project manager carry the job from permit to punchlist.

Kitchens

The most-used room in your home, done right.

Whether you want a refreshed layout that finally makes sense or a full gut-and-rebuild with custom cabinetry, we start with how you actually cook. Permits pulled, inspections passed, no subcontractor surprise handoffs.

We've built kitchens in Kailua bungalows, Kahala estates, and Kapolei new builds. The finish level scales — the process doesn't change.

Bathrooms

Tight space. Zero shortcuts.

Waterproofing is where bathroom remodels fail — years later, behind the tile you can't see. We use IICRC-certified methods because our restoration crew taught us exactly how water gets in.

Primary suites, hall baths, powder rooms. Tile-setting, custom glass, ADA layouts. You'll see the spec sheet before a single tile is ordered.

Whole-Home Renovations

One contractor, the entire house.

Coordinating five different contractors is how projects run six months late. We carry the full arc — demo, framing, electrical, plumbing coordination, drywall, finish, punch. One schedule. One project manager.

Especially suited to homes built pre-1978 where EPA Lead-Safe compliance isn't optional. We're certified. We document it.

Accessory Dwelling Units

More homes qualify now.
Yours might be one of them.

Honolulu Ordinance 25-2, effective September 2025, expanded ADU eligibility — smaller lots and previously ineligible parcels now qualify. If you've looked at an ADU before and been told your lot was too small, it's worth a second look.

We handle permitting through DPP Honolulu, design-build from foundation to finish, and can advise on the difference between a detached ADU, an attached ADU, and an interior conversion. Every option has a different cost and timeline — we'll walk you through yours before you commit to anything.

Our work

The details you'll see when you look close.

Cabinet joints that sit flush. Tile lines that stay straight around corners. Trim that meets at a real angle. The craftsmanship doesn't change because a camera isn't pointed at it.

Transparent pricing

Three tiers. Real starting numbers.

Most contractors won't talk numbers until they're standing in your kitchen. We publish them here — because a range you can plan around is more useful than a vague "it depends." See the full breakdown on the Estimates page.

Starting prices reflect Oahu labor and material costs as of early 2026. Layout changes, structural work, and specialty finishes move the number up. We'll tell you why before anything is signed.

How a project runs

A project manager. A schedule. A walkthrough that ends when it's right.

Three things homeowners say went wrong with their last contractor: couldn't reach anyone, the schedule fell apart, and they were pressured to sign off on work that wasn't finished. Here's how we run it differently.

01

A project manager whose number you have.

Marllon Faria runs your project from contract through final walkthrough. His number goes in your phone before we break ground. Questions don't go into a ticketing system or a customer portal — they go to the person making decisions on your job.

02

A schedule you can see — and hold us to.

Before work starts, you get a written schedule: when permits are expected, when demolition begins, when rough inspections happen, when finish work lands. If something changes, you hear from us first — not by discovering a quiet jobsite.

03

A walkthrough that ends only when it's right.

Final walkthrough isn't a formality. You walk through with the project manager and flag anything that isn't what you expected. We fix it before we leave. We've been in the restoration business long enough to know what a callback looks like — we'd rather not have one.

Tell us what you're planning.

A conversation costs nothing. We'll ask what matters — budget, timeline, which room goes first — and give you a straight answer about whether the numbers line up.
