Top Kitchen Design Tips for a Stunning and Functional Space in Brea

Kitchen Projects Gallery 4

Brea blends an established downtown with newer hillside neighborhoods, and its homes span decades of
kitchens ready for an update. A kitchen remodel is one of the best investments a Brea homeowner can
make — in daily life and in value. Katz Design & Builders is a licensed design-build firm
(California CSLB #1089060) that remodels kitchens across Brea, from dated layouts to full open-concept
transformations.

Why Brea homeowners choose Katz Design & Builders

  • We open up dated layouts. Older Brea kitchens are often closed off. We open them,
    add storage, and make them work for how families cook today.
  • Honest, up-front pricing. An itemized, fixed proposal before demolition.
  • Licensed, insured, accountable. CSLB #1089060, fully insured, one project
    manager start to finish.
  • We handle Brea’s permits. Electrical, plumbing, and structural work are permitted
    through the city. We prepare, submit, and manage inspections.

Brea kitchen remodeling — FAQ

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

Several weeks to a couple of months, depending on whether you’re changing the layout and moving
plumbing or electrical. You’ll get a realistic schedule up front.

Do I need a permit to remodel a kitchen in Brea?

Moving plumbing or electrical and any structural change require permits through the city. Cosmetic
like-for-like updates may not. We confirm and handle it.

Can you open my kitchen to the living room?

Usually yes — often it involves structural work if the wall is load-bearing. We engineer and
permit the change so it’s safe and clean.
