ADU Company in Stanton, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Stanton calls for a contractor who understands 1960s and 1970s tract homes: compact footprints, load-bearing walls where you least expect them, and plumbing that’s been patched for five decades. Holloway ADU Builders has served Stanton since 2016, and most kitchens we open up hide surprises that change scope. Whether you’re adding an ADU with a full kitchen or reworking the one in your main house, we handle it from foundation to finished counter. Call (855) 617-6356 for a free estimate.
Why Stanton Homes Are Different
Stanton’s housing stock is dominated by single-story tract homes from the 1960s and 1970s, built fast on small, tightly packed lots. Kitchens in these houses are typically 80 to 120 square feet, boxed in by walls that often carry roof load. The original layouts were designed for a different era: closed off from living space, minimal counter run, and one overhead light. Homeowners who want open-concept kitchens usually need a structural beam, which changes the engineering and permit path. Stanton’s location in the coastal-influenced Los Angeles Basin means mild, wet winters and the familiar May Gray and June Gloom overcast. Moisture in those damp months gets into unvented wall cavities, and we routinely find rot behind old sinks and dishwashers in Stanton kitchens. The lots are shallow with narrow driveways, so material staging and dumpster placement need planning. None of this is unusual to us, but it’s real, and it affects how a Stanton kitchen job gets priced and scheduled.
Our Main Stanton Services
Stanton homeowners call us about two projects more than anything else: adding an ADU to a qualifying lot, and reworking an aging bathroom in a tract home that hasn’t been touched since the original build.
ADU Builders in Stanton
Stanton’s lack of an adopted local ADU ordinance means every project is measured against the state’s default standards under Gov. Code § 66310 et seq. Most of the city’s 1960s-70s tract homes sit on small lots with detached single-car garages, so the first question is usually whether a garage conversion is legal, not whether a new detached unit will fit. ADU Builders in Stanton gives you the full picture on how we navigate those rules and the foundation upgrades many garage conversions require.
Bathroom Remodeling in Stanton
Bathrooms in Stanton’s tract homes were built with cast-iron plumbing, small tubs, and no ventilation to speak of. The mild coastal damp means mildew settles in quickly. We handle full gut replacements, walk-in shower conversions, and ADU bathroom builds under the same contractor relationship. Bathroom Remodeling in Stanton covers the specific scope and pricing for these jobs.

Kitchen Remodeling in Stanton
Kitchen remodeling in Stanton is rarely a cosmetic refresh. Most of these 1960s and 1970s tract kitchens were built with minimal footings under slab floors, original galvanized supply lines, and walls that carry roof load. Stanton’s damp winters mean any slow leak has had decades to rot the framing behind cabinets. Opening a Stanton kitchen usually means addressing structure and plumbing before the cabinets go in, which is exactly the scope we expect and plan for. Our Kitchen Remodeling expertise spans full gut renovations, ADU kitchens, and smaller updates that respect the original footprint.
Full Kitchen Remodel
Signs you need it
Your kitchen floor feels soft near the sink or dishwasher, the cabinet boxes are swollen from moisture, and the layout blocks traffic every time two people try to cook together.
What it costs in Stanton
Full kitchen remodels in Stanton typically run $25,000 to $60,000, depending on structural work, cabinet grade, and whether the footprint changes.
How we do it
We open the walls, check the foundation and framing, replace the supply and waste lines, rough in the new layout, hang and finish drywall, install cabinets and counters, and finish with a city inspection.
ADU Kitchen Build-Out
Signs you need it
You’re building or converting an ADU in Stanton and need a compact, code-compliant kitchen that fits a 60 to 120 square foot footprint without wasting a single inch of counter or storage.
What it costs in Stanton
ADU kitchen build-outs in Stanton typically start around $18,000 and climb to $40,000 based on appliance count, finish level, and whether a gas line extension is required.
How we do it
We pull the ADU kitchen from the site plan, design the cabinet run around the mechanical wall, prep the slab for any drain relocations, and install a compact kitchen that passes City of Stanton inspection.
What Kitchen Remodeling Costs in Stanton
| Item | Typical range in Stanton |
|---|---|
| Full kitchen remodel | $25,000 – $60,000 |
| ADU kitchen build-out | $18,000 – $40,000 |
| Cabinet refacing with new counters | $8,000 – $16,000 |
Stanton prices get pushed up when the original slab needs cutting for drain relocation, when load-bearing walls come out for an open layout, or when termite damage shows up once the drywall is down. Homeowners get a written line-item quote before work starts, and our price doesn’t change unless the scope changes in writing.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Stanton?
A full Stanton kitchen remodel usually runs four to eight weeks from demo to final inspection. Permitting time adds two to four weeks on top, and structural changes or hidden damage can extend the schedule.
Will the price change once the kitchen is opened up?
Only if we find something the quote couldn’t have accounted for, like rotted framing or a cracked slab. We document it with photos, show you the written change order, and get your approval before proceeding. Call (855) 617-6356 for an exact quote on your Stanton kitchen.

What Stanton Customers Say
"Every invoice was tied to a completed milestone, so I always knew what I was paying for."
— Justin Kim"Garage conversion to a one bedroom unit. He handled the plans, the city submittal, and every round of corrections. Took six months from first meeting to final inspection and he never once made the permit process my problem."
— Rachel Brooks"Detached unit in the back yard. Utilities trenched, separate meter, and it passed final on the first inspection."
