Rancho Palos Verdes Remodeling & Design-Build Contractor
Design-Build Remodeling on the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Optima Design & Build is a licensed general contractor that remodels kitchens, bathrooms and whole homes in Rancho Palos Verdes. We handle the full project in one place: design and 3D renderings, a detailed fixed-scope proposal, city permits, and construction through the final walkthrough.
Many Peninsula homes were built in the 1950s through the 1970s. They have great lots and views, but often dated layouts, older plumbing and electrical, and kitchens and baths that no longer fit how families live. That is the work we do every week, and we have completed projects right here in Rancho Palos Verdes.

What to Know Before You Remodel in RPV
Rancho Palos Verdes has its own planning rules, and they shape what you can build and how long it takes. We plan for them from day one so they don't surprise you later.
Height and view rules
Second stories and taller additions can need a Height Variation permit, with neighbor notice and a neighborhood compatibility review. We design with this in mind and prepare the submittal.
Geology and landslide areas
Parts of the Peninsula sit in or near active landslide areas, where additions and some structural work need extra geology review. We check your address early so the scope and timeline are realistic.
Older homes, hidden conditions
Homes from the 1950s to 1970s often have outdated wiring, galvanized plumbing, and lead or asbestos in older materials. We test where needed and price it upfront.
Coastal climate
Salt air and marine moisture are hard on finishes. We specify materials, hardware and ventilation that hold up on the coast, especially in bathrooms and exterior work.

Verified Google ReviewRancho Palos Verdes Remodeling Questions
Do you handle permits in Rancho Palos Verdes?
Yes. We prepare the drawings and submit to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, including planning review when a project needs it, such as a Height Variation for a second story. We manage the process through final inspection.
How long does a kitchen or bathroom remodel take?
Construction for most bathrooms takes about 3 to 8 weeks and most kitchens about 5 to 10 weeks, depending on scope. Design and permits come before that. We give you a project timeline with the proposal.
Can I build an ADU in Rancho Palos Verdes?
In most cases, yes. State law allows ADUs and JADUs on most single-family lots, but setbacks, lot conditions and geology can affect what fits. We check feasibility on your property before design starts.
How much will my remodel cost?
It depends on size, layout changes and finishes. After the on-site consultation and 3D design, we give you a ballpark range, and then a detailed proposal so you know the cost before work begins.
