How much does a kitchen remodel cost in the Bay Area?

Every kitchen is different, so every estimate is different. We work with homeowners across the Bay Area on projects of all sizes. We provide a detailed written estimate after our free in-home consultation so you know exactly what your project will cost before any work begins.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

Most kitchen remodels with Mayer's are completed within 6 to 10 weeks. We give you a detailed project schedule before we start and keep you updated throughout.

Do I need permits for a kitchen remodel in San Jose?

Any kitchen remodel involving structural changes, electrical upgrades or plumbing relocations requires permits. Our team handles the full permit process so you don't have to navigate City Hall.

Can you remove load bearing walls in a kitchen remodel?

Yes. We have an in-house structural engineer who handles all load bearing wall removals with full engineering plans and permits. This is one of the things that makes Mayer's different from most remodeling contractors.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

Most bathroom remodels with Mayer's are completed within 3 to 6 weeks. We give you a clear project schedule before we start and keep you updated every step of the way.

Can you help me choose the materials and design?

Yes. Our in-house designer works with you from the very beginning to select materials, finishes and fixtures that match your personal style. We create 3D renderings before any work starts so you can see exactly what your bathroom will look like.

How long does it take to build an ADU in San Jose?

Most ADU projects with Mayer's are completed within 4 to 8 months from permit approval to final walkthrough. We give you a clear project timeline before we start.

Do you handle ADU permits in San Jose?

Yes. We handle the complete permit process from start to finish. Our team files all documents with the City of San Jose on your behalf. You do not need to step foot in City Hall.

Can I rent out my ADU in San Jose?

Yes. ADUs are legal to rent in San Jose and throughout California. Many of our clients use their ADU for rental income, multigenerational living or as a guest house.

Do I need a permit to convert my garage in San Jose?

Yes. Any garage conversion requires permits from the City of San Jose. Our team handles the complete permit process from start to finish.

Will I lose my parking space with a garage conversion?

California law no longer requires replacement parking spaces for garage conversions in most cases. Our team will review your specific property and advise you on parking requirements during your free consultation.

What is design-build and how is it different?

In a traditional project, a homeowner hires a designer and a contractor separately. In a design-build project, one company handles both. At Mayer's, our architect, engineer, designer and build crew all work together under one roof. This eliminates miscommunication and gives you one point of accountability from start to finish.

Do you handle permits for design-build projects?

Yes. We handle every permit filing with the City of San Jose and all Bay Area municipalities. You never need to navigate the building department yourself.
