What a GVD Remodel Includes, Start to Finish

Every project runs through five stages: free in-home consultation, showroom design selection, a written fixed-price proposal, construction by our own crews, and a final walkthrough. You approve the scope and price before demolition begins.

You hire GVD once and get design, permits, construction, and cleanup under a single point of contact.

Our Services

Kitchen Remodeling

We handle demolition, structural changes, plumbing, electrical, drywall, cabinetry, countertop fabrication, tile, and paint without outside subcontractors. Your project manager tracks each trade so the sequence holds. Selections happen at the Rocklin showroom, where you compare Cambria and dolomite countertops, MasterBrand cabinetry, Kohler and Moen fixtures, flooring, backsplash, and lighting side by side.

Siding, Windows, and Exterior Renovations

GVD is a James Hardie Elite Contractor and an LP Master Level Preferred Contractor and Certified Installer, the top installation certifications for each product line. Siding options include James Hardie fiber cement, LP SmartSide engineered wood, vinyl, natural wood, CraneBoard, and CertainTeed. We also handle dry rot repair, trim replacement, and full exterior repaints. Window replacements use Anlin, Milgard, Andersen, or Simonton. Bundling siding and windows into one project cuts mobilization cost and shortens the total timeline.

Siding Replacement

Roofing and Decking

We install and replace roofing, gutters, and decks as standalone jobs or as part of a full exterior renovation.

Deck Building

Whole-House and Multi-Room Remodels

We take on kitchen-and-bath combinations, interior renovations paired with new siding and windows, and whole-home projects that touch every room. One company across the full scope means you pay one mobilization, not three, and one manager sequences the trades so a tile crew is not waiting on a plumber from another firm.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is $100,000 enough to renovate a home?

A $100,000 budget covers a substantial multi-room remodel: a mid-range kitchen, one or two bathrooms, and cosmetic updates elsewhere. A full whole-house gut of a larger home, or additions that expand square footage, can exceed it.

Do I need a permit to remodel a bathroom or kitchen in California?

You need a permit whenever work changes plumbing, electrical, gas, or structure, which covers most kitchen and bathroom remodels. Swapping a faucet or repainting does not require one; moving a sink, adding circuits, or relocating walls does. We pull the permits and schedule the inspections as part of the contract.

What license do I need to remodel homes in California?

A homeowner needs no license to work on their own property, but any contractor performing work valued over $500 (labor plus materials) must hold a California State License Board (CSLB) license. Verify a contractor's license and bond at cslb.ca.gov before signing. GVD carries CSLB License #989637 with over $2,000,000 in workers' compensation and general liability coverage.

How long does a remodel take?

A cosmetic bathroom runs about 2 to 3 weeks, a full bathroom takes 3 to 5 weeks, and a kitchen 6 to 12 weeks depending on cabinetry lead times. A siding replacement runs 1 to 2 weeks. Custom cabinets, structural changes, and inspection scheduling drive most delays.

DIY or hire a contractor?

Handle paint, hardware, and fixture swaps yourself. Hire a licensed contractor for anything touching plumbing, electrical, gas, or structure, both because permits require it and because unpermitted work can block a future home sale. A handyman suits small repairs; multi-trade remodels need a general contractor who coordinates the sequence.

How to prepare for a remodel?

Set your final budget and contingency before design. Choose all finishes before demolition so lead times do not stall the crew. Clear the work zone, plan a temporary kitchen or bathroom, and confirm the project schedule and daily work hours with your project manager.
