Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Calabasas
Hiring a General Contractor in Calabasas means navigating two layers of approval before the first wall comes down: the city’s Architectural Review process and, often, a homeowners association with its own rulebook. Mason Remodeling Co Woodland Hills handles both. We file the design review packet, attend to HOA submittals, pull permits, and build to the finish. If you’re planning a kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, or whole-home addition in Calabasas, call (831) 290-6866 for a written price before any work starts. That’s how we’ve operated since 2004, and we don’t make exceptions.
Why Mason Remodeling Co Woodland Hills Is Calabasas’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Calabasas homeowners don’t hand keys to just anyone. They want to know who is coming, what the job costs, and what happens if something isn’t right. We answer all three before we ever unload a tool. Every crew member is background-checked and identity-verified under the Threshold Standard, which means you receive the technician’s name and photo before the visit, and they arrive in a clean marked uniform with a photo ID badge at your door. No surprises at the threshold.
Calabasas customers deal directly with Isaac Pruett, who runs each project with a builder’s eye and a paper trail to match. We write the price down. Not a verbal range, not a “we’ll see how it goes.” A fixed, line-item number. If something fails within 365 days of completion, the Done Right Promise means we return and make it right at no cost to you. That’s the guarantee, in writing, on every project.
We’ve managed full remodels inside guard-gated communities like Calabasas Hills and The Oaks, where parking rules, material restrictions, and work-hour windows are tighter than most HOAs in the Valley. We schedule demo around those rules, not against them. That local fluency keeps your job moving when a less experienced crew would be stuck waiting for a variance.
Styles & brands we work with
General Contractor Services in Calabasas
General Contractor Services in Calabasas means overseeing the entire build: plans, permits, subs, inspections, and final sign-off. You get one point of contact, one schedule, and one written price. For a typical Calabasas kitchen remodel, expect $14,000 – $45,000 depending on cabinetry grade, layout changes, and appliance work. A bathroom remodel runs $9,000 – $28,000. Those are real ranges for this market, where homes skew custom and finishes skew high-end.
Kitchen and Bath Remodels
Calabasas kitchens built in the 1980s and 1990s often have good bones but dated layouts. We open walls, relocate plumbing, and install cabinetry from KraftMaid or Wellborn when the budget calls for it. Bathrooms get the same care, including walk-in showers that replace cramped tub surrounds. Every sub is scheduled, permitted, and inspected. You’ll know the name and face of every person on site before they arrive.
Whole-Home and Room Additions
A home addition in Calabasas can run $45,000 – $130,000, with ADU construction reaching $90,000 – $220,000 depending on size and site work. These are not weekend projects, and that’s exactly why the review process matters. We file the complete submittal packet up front, including material samples and color boards, so the Architectural Review Committee isn’t bouncing your plans back for missing details.

Construction Company in Calabasas
As a Construction Company serving Calabasas, we handle full structural work, framing, roofing, and hardscape. When a homeowner calls us after a roofer disappears or a handyman leaves a half-finished addition, we do an honest assessment and give them a written number. Roof replacement in Calabasas typically costs $8,000 – $20,000, and in older gated communities that number usually includes the fire-resistant underlayment upgrade Los Angeles County now requires.
Roofing and Exterior Work
Sun-baked clay tiles are a Calabasas signature. They also get brittle. In neighborhoods like The Oaks, a “simple” tile replacement often triggers a mandatory upgrade to fire-resistant underlayment under current LA County codes. That means two permits and two inspections, which adds 2 – 4 weeks to the calendar. We file both from day one so your roof doesn’t sit tarped at rough-in.
Outdoor Living and Hardscape
Mediterranean and Spanish-style Calabasas homes lean hard on outdoor spaces. Paver patios, outdoor kitchens, and drought-tolerant hardscape are standard asks. We build with materials from Belgard and Unilock, and we schedule around your HOA’s rules for construction hours and staging. No dumpsters parked in front of the neighbor’s gate at 6 a.m.
Trusted Brands We Service in Calabasas
We stock and install materials Calabasas homeowners actually ask for by name. That includes cabinetry from KraftMaid and Wellborn, James Hardie siding and trim for fire-resistant exteriors, and Tuff Shed structures for accessory storage where HOA setbacks allow. Because our crews work Calabasas weekly, we know which suppliers hold inventory locally and which ones need a week to deliver. That knowledge keeps your schedule honest. If a material is backordered, we tell you before we start, not after demo is done.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Calabasas Homes
- Incomplete design review packets. A packet missing material samples or color chips goes to the Calabasas Architectural Review Committee and comes back with questions. Every round trip costs 3 – 6 weeks. We submit complete packets the first time.
- Re-roof permits that ignore the underlayment trigger. A roofer pulls a roofing permit but skips the fire-resistant underlayment inspection. The job stalls at rough-in, and the homeowner is left calling us to untangle it. We file both permits up front, every time.
- Demo before approvals. Starting before the city and HOA both sign off is a fast way to have a half-finished exterior sitting exposed in a high-fire-risk zone. We don’t swing a hammer until the paperwork is in hand.
- Sun damage on older exteriors. Stucco cracks and faded fascia are common on 1980s-era Calabasas homes. What looks cosmetic is sometimes a moisture path. We inspect before we quote, not after we open the wall.

FAQs About General Contractor in Calabasas
Plan for 3 – 6 weeks on top of your build timeline if the submittal is complete. A typical whole-home remodel in Calabasas adds roughly four to six weeks for Architectural Review when the packet includes material samples, color boards, site plans, and elevation drawings. Incomplete packets bounce back and can double that. We file complete packets and track the review so your job doesn’t linger on a committee’s desk. Call (831) 290-6866 for a realistic schedule on your specific project.
Yes, in most cases in older gated communities like Calabasas Hills and The Oaks. Current Los Angeles County codes require fire-resistant underlayment when a roof is replaced, and the inspection is separate from the roofing permit. That’s a two-permit, two-inspection job. We file both up front, which saves you the two-to-four-week stall that happens when a roofer files only the roofing permit and gets red-tagged at rough-in.
Earth tones, Spanish tiles, stucco, and muted natural stone palettes typically clear review without objection. Calabasas design review favors Mediterranean and Spanish-inspired materials that blend with the existing hillside character. Bright or modern materials often draw a request for revision. We’ll tell you what’s likely to pass before you spend money on samples. For exact guidance on your project, call (831) 290-6866.
Yes, they do. In communities like Calabasas Hills and The Oaks, the HOA’s architectural committee reviews after the city, and often imposes its own restrictions on work hours, fencing, paint colors, and even where contractors can park. A project can clear the city and still get held by the HOA for another two weeks. We manage both review tracks simultaneously so one doesn’t wait on the other.
We sequence the work so that long-lead items like custom cabinetry or specialty tile are ordered the same week the review packet goes in. By the time approvals land, materials are already in motion. We stage jobs so that demolition doesn’t happen until every approval is in hand, and once we start, the crew doesn’t leave a half-open exterior exposed for weeks. Our crew recently managed a full re-roof on a Spanish-style home off Park Granada, where sun-baked clay tiles had cracked and the underlayment no longer met LA County fire codes. We filed the permit set, coordinated the inspection sign-off for the new fire-resistant underlayment, and kept the schedule moving by pre-ordering custom tiles and staging the job so the home was never exposed to weather. That’s the standard. Call (831) 290-6866 and we’ll build the same schedule for your project.
