Cerritos is a master-planned city of well-kept homes, strong schools, and proud homeowners —
and many of those homes, built from the 1970s onward, are now ready for a refresh. Katz Design &
Builders is a licensed design-build firm (California CSLB #1089060) that remodels and updates homes
across Cerritos, modernizing them while protecting the value that makes this community desirable.
