ADU Company in Oak Hills, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Oak Hills means working with 1980s and 1990s ranch homes on multi-acre parcels, where septic systems and private wells sit right alongside the room you’re about to gut. The high-desert climate – hot dry summers, hard freezes in winter, and wind that never quits – shapes everything from cabinet material choices to how we run plumbing. Bungalow ADU Builders handles kitchen remodels in Oak Hills as part of our core work, and we’ve been doing it here since 2014. Call (866) 730-4828 to talk through what your kitchen needs.
Why Oak Hills Homes Are Different
Oak Hills is a High Desert community in San Bernardino County where almost every kitchen remodel happens in a home that was built between 1980 and 2005, or in a manufactured home that’s been permanently set on acreage. These aren’t cramped city kitchens. They’re often 12 to 16 feet wide in one direction, with dated peninsula layouts, fluorescent box lighting, and cabinetry that’s been through two decades of dry heat. The air here sits around 3,000 feet of elevation. That means summer days over 100 degrees and winter nights that freeze hard enough to burst an uninsulated supply line.
Most Oak Hills properties run on septic and private well systems. When we remodel a kitchen, we’re not just moving a sink – we’re making sure the new drain line slopes correctly to an existing septic inlet, and we’re sizing a water filtration setup if the well has heavy mineral content, which is common across the 92344 ZIP. The constant wind matters too. Range hoods vent differently here because gusts can push exhaust back down the duct. And because a lot of these homes were owner-built or tract custom, we regularly find framing that’s not perfectly square behind the drywall. That’s normal for Oak Hills. We plan for it from the first measurement.
Our Main Oak Hills Services
Most Oak Hills homeowners call us about two things: building an ADU on their land, and remodeling a bathroom inside the main house. Both are tied to the same local realities – county permits, septic capacity, and the need for finishes that hold up to the high desert.
ADU Builders in Oak Hills
Detached ADUs in Oak Hills are almost always new slab-on-grade construction on large lots, permitted through San Bernardino County. That means fire access rules, driveway width requirements, and utility trenching drive the project as much as the floor plan does. We walk you through what’s actually buildable on your parcel before you spend a dollar on design. Bungalow ADU Builders sources from brands including Abodu, Plant Prefab, and Cover, so we’re comparing systems against your lot, not selling one product. ADU Builders in Oak Hills covers the full process, from county submittal to finished kitchen inside the unit.
Bathroom Remodeling in Oak Hills
Bathrooms here deal with the same well water and freeze cycles as kitchens, plus the added challenge of humidity swings that can warp cheap vanities fast. Many Oak Hills homes have a hall bath from the original build with a tub-shower combo that’s seen better days. We bring the same team that builds ADU interiors, so the tile work, waterproofing, and fixture rough-in come from people who do this full time. Bathroom Remodeling in Oak Hills breaks down what a typical remodel involves and what it costs.

Kitchen Remodeling in Oak Hills
A kitchen remodel in Oak Hills typically runs between $35,000 and $90,000 depending on layout changes, cabinet grade, and whether we’re moving plumbing or keeping the sink where it is. Homes built in the 1980s through 2000s dominate the area, and their kitchens usually have good square footage but bad flow – cramped peninsulas, poor lighting, and cabinets that have swollen or faded in the dry heat. Our team handles the full remodel under one roof, which means the same crew that opens walls also sets cabinets, installs the fixtures, and finishes the backsplash. If you’re comparing the scope of a full kitchen overhaul against what you’ve seen from general contractors, see how we approach Kitchen Remodeling as a dedicated service, not a side job.
Full Kitchen Gut and Rebuild
Signs you need it
Cabinet doors won’t close straight, the peninsula cuts the room in half, and the lighting makes the space feel like a garage even at noon.
What it costs in Oak Hills
A full gut and rebuild in Oak Hills runs $38,000 to $90,000 once walls, electrical, flooring, and custom or semi-custom cabinetry are included.
How we do it
We strip the room to framing, correct any settling or out-of-square walls common in older Oak Hills ranch homes, then rebuild with new drywall, insulated exterior walls, upgraded electrical circuits, and the cabinet layout you choose from multiple suppliers.
Cabinet Refacing and Countertop Replacement
Signs you need it
Your cabinet boxes are solid but the doors are delaminating or the finish has worn through, and the counters are scratched or burned.
What it costs in Oak Hills
Cabinet refacing with new doors, drawer fronts, and hardware in Oak Hills generally lands between $9,000 and $18,000 depending on kitchen size and door style.
How we do it
We remove existing doors and drawer faces, apply new veneers or paint-grade finishes to the boxes, install new doors and pulls, then set fresh countertops – often quartz or a durable solid surface that holds up to the region’s dry heat.

What Oak Hills Customers Say
"The kitchenette layout he suggested made better use of the space than the one on our original sketch."
— Kelly Schaefer"Garage conversion to a one bedroom unit. He handled the plans, the city submittal, and every round of corrections. Took six months from first meeting to final inspection and he never once made the permit process my problem."
— Wade Pruitt"Unit came out great and the tenant is happy. The timeline ran long, largely because of how slow the city was on plan check, though a couple of the delays were scheduling on their end."
— Emily Yang
