Kitchen Remodeling in Pasadena, CA
Custom kitchen design and remodeling for Pasadena’s historic and modern homes.
Kitchens built for Pasadena homes
Pasadena’s housing stock is unlike anywhere else in the San Gabriel Valley. Craftsman bungalows in Bungalow Heaven, Spanish Revival estates above the Arroyo, and mid-century homes scattered through the San Rafael hills all carry real architectural character — and almost all of them were built with kitchens designed for a very different way of living.
AJJ Home Builders & Remodeling specializes in opening up those tight, walled-off kitchens without erasing what makes a Pasadena home special. Whether you want to preserve original millwork and period detailing or go fully modern with an open island layout, we tailor the design to your home rather than forcing a template onto it.
What’s included in a Pasadena kitchen remodel
Every project is scoped to your space and budget, but most of our Pasadena kitchen remodels involve some combination of:
- Custom and semi-custom cabinetry, including refacing for homes where original cabinets are worth keeping
- Quartz, granite, and natural-stone countertops sized to your layout
- Layout reconfiguration and load-bearing wall removal to open the kitchen to dining and living areas
- Updated electrical and plumbing to bring older Pasadena homes up to current code
- Recessed and pendant lighting, plus under-cabinet task lighting
- Flooring, tile backsplashes, and finish carpentry that respects the home’s era
Why Pasadena homeowners choose AJJ
Older homes hide surprises — outdated wiring, settled foundations, layers of past renovations. Our crews have remodeled enough Pasadena kitchens to plan for those realities up front, so you get a realistic timeline and budget instead of a string of change orders.
We handle the permitting, the trades, and the day-to-day site management ourselves, which keeps the project moving and keeps you from having to coordinate a half-dozen subcontractors on your own.
