ADU Company in Chino, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Chino usually means working with a 1970s-to-1990s stucco tract home where the original layout no longer fits how the household actually lives. Bungalow ADU Builders has served Chino since 2014, and we’re the team homeowners call at (866) 730-4828 when they want a kitchen that handles Chino’s hot summers, stands up to Santa Ana wind-driven dust, and adds real value to a property they may also be planning to add an ADU to. Chino’s housing stock splits between older west-side ranchers with generous lots and newer east-side two-story tracts, and that difference changes how every remodel gets planned.
Why Chino Homes Are Different
Chino sits in the hot, dry Santa Ana wind corridor at San Bernardino County’s western edge. That means kitchens here take more abuse than coastal homes: intense summer heat pushes refrigerators and range hoods harder, fine dust from high-wind events finds its way into older cabinet seals, and unconditioned attics above 1980s tract kitchens make cooling a real budget line item. We plan for that with insulation upgrades, properly vented range hoods, and finishes that don’t warp when the temperature swings from 105°F days to cool desert nights.
The housing stock matters just as much. Most of Chino’s older single-story homes in the 91710 ZIP were built as post-WWII through 1990s stucco tracts on irrigated lots. Their kitchens are typically galley-style or closed-off, with original plumbing and electrical that predates modern appliance loads. The newer 91708 Preserve and College Park communities have larger kitchens but tighter HOA rules around exterior changes and construction hours. A kitchen remodel on the west side often means opening walls and reworking old plumbing, while an east-side job is more about finish upgrades and layout adjustments inside an existing footprint.
There’s one more Chino-specific thing we’ve learned: the city’s dairy and agriculture past left scattered older parcels with aging private utilities and drainage. Before we touch a kitchen on those properties, we check for old septic remnants and undocumented irrigation lines. That’s not something a general remodeler from outside the area would think to do, and it has saved Chino homeowners from surprises behind the drywall.
Our Main Chino Services
Chino homeowners call Bungalow ADU Builders most often about two things: building an ADU and remodeling a bathroom. Both follow the same east-west split in Chino’s housing patterns, and both benefit from a team that handles permits, utilities, and finishes under one roof.
ADU Builders in Chino
Chino splits into two ADU realities. Older deep-lot parcels around downtown and the west side of 91710 have space for detached units on existing irrigated backyards, though crews need to check aging sewer laterals before tying in. The newer 91708 Preserve and College Park tracts have smaller graded lots and HOA CC&Rs, which usually makes garage conversions and attached junior ADUs the practical path. Bungalow ADU Builders works with seven leading ADU brands, including Abodu, Cover, and Tuff Shed, so the recommendation fits the lot and the goal. ADU Builders in Chino.
Bathroom Remodeling in Chino
Bathroom remodels in Chino’s older 91710 homes often involve cast-iron drain lines and single-bathroom layouts that make timing everything. On newer east-side homes, the work is usually cosmetic or tied to making an ADU bathroom feel consistent with the main house. Either way, one team handles the plumbing, tile, waterproofing, and finish work rather than handing you off between contractors. Bathroom Remodeling in Chino.

Kitchen Remodeling in Chino
Kitchen remodeling in Chino means something different depending on which side of town you live on. In the older 91710 tracts, we’re usually opening up closed-off galley kitchens, replacing original plumbing, and adding the cooling and ventilation that Chino’s Santa Ana summers demand. In the newer 91708 communities, the work skews toward updating finishes, reconfiguring islands, and making a kitchen that supports the same household that might be adding an ADU for rental income or family. Our team handles the full scope, from cabinet layout through countertops, tile, and appliance integration, under one roof. If you’re planning a kitchen alongside an ADU build, the coordination advantage is real. Visit Kitchen Remodeling for more on how we approach the work.
Cabinet and Layout Reconfiguration
Signs you need it
Your Chino kitchen still has the original closed-off galley layout, and the workflow forces one person to squeeze past the refrigerator while someone else cooks.
What it costs in Chino
Cabinet refacing in Chino typically runs $7,000 to $16,000, while a full custom cabinet replacement runs $15,000 to $35,000 depending on linear feet and finish level.
How we do it
We measure the full footprint, model the new layout against your existing plumbing and electrical locations, then remove old cabinetry, adjust or relocate utilities as needed, and install the new configuration with a final fit-and-finish pass.
Countertop and Backsplash Replacement
Signs you need it
Your laminate counters from the 1980s are delaminating at the seams, and the original tile backsplash has cracked grout that traps Chino dust.
What it costs in Chino
Quartz or granite countertops in Chino typically run $3,000 to $7,500 installed, and a tile backsplash replacement runs $1,500 to $3,000 for a standard kitchen.
How we do it
We template the counters after base cabinets are set, fabricate the stone or quartz offsite, then install with a matching backsplash and silicone-sealed joints that hold up when Santa Ana winds push dust through the house.

What Chino Customers Say
"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"Sound insulation between the unit and the main house is better than I expected. You genuinely cannot hear the tenant."
— Alicia Ingram"The kitchenette layout he suggested made better use of the space than the one on our original sketch."
— Kelly Schaefer
