You get a detailed estimate before any work starts, and we don't pad it with hidden fees. If something changes, we talk about it first.
We're based right here on Prospect Street. We know the neighborhoods, the building codes, and the coastal conditions that affect your home.
We clean up every day before we leave. Your home is still your home during a remodel, and we treat it that way.

Your kitchen is the most-used room in the house, and it should work as well as it looks. We handle layout changes, cabinetry, countertops, lighting, and everything in between.

From outdated tile to cramped layouts, we fix the things that make your bathroom feel like it belongs in another decade. New showers, vanities, flooring, and smart storage โ all built to last.

When one room isn't enough, we take on full-house renovations that bring every space up to the same standard. It's a big project, and we have the systems in place to manage it well.
From targeted upgrades to large-scale renovations, we offer a full menu of remodeling services designed for La Jolla homes. Take a look at what we can do for your space and reach out when you're ready to talk specifics.

"They completely redid our kitchen and the difference is unreal. The crew was respectful of our home, showed up when they said they would, and the finished product looks even better than the renderings."
"We hired Empire for a bathroom renovation and a small addition. Communication was excellent the entire time, and they caught a plumbing issue the previous owner had buried that could have been a real problem down the road."
"Our whole-home remodel was a big undertaking and they handled it like pros. The project came in close to the original estimate and the quality of the finish work is outstanding."
