Across San Diego County
Owner-led, fixed-bid
South University City’s 1960s and 1970s single-family homes still carry their original kitchens and baths, while North University City brings newer construction near UCSD and Westfield UTC. We remodel throughout this central north San Diego neighborhood for the academic, medical, and tech professionals who own here. From opening up a closed mid-century floor plan to building a backyard ADU, our work fits homes near the UTC mall and the research corridor. With a convenient location and strong resale, University City is a smart place to invest, and we handle the City of San Diego permitting from start to finish.

What Makes Remodeling University City Homes Different
University City has a distinct housing mix, and each project calls for an approach that respects the home’s era and the neighborhood’s value.
- 1960s–1970s mid-century updates: South UC’s established single-family homes often still have their original kitchens and baths ready for modernizing.
- Open-concept conversions: removing walls in older closed floor plans to create the bright, connected living space buyers expect.
- ADUs: generous UC lots are well suited to accessory dwelling units near UCSD and the UTC employment core.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a remodel cost in University City?
Cost depends on the scope, the size of the space, and the finishes you choose, and an original mid-century kitchen or bath update will price differently than a full addition or ADU. Rather than quote a vague range, our team looks at your University City home and gives you a fixed-bid price in writing, so you know the full number before any work begins. Call (858) 267-4671 for a free estimate.
Do I need permits to remodel my University City home?
Most University City remodels involving structural changes, electrical, plumbing, additions, or ADUs require permits through the City of San Diego. We handle that process for you as part of the project, pulling the proper permits and coordinating inspections, and keep your remodel compliant from start to finish.
Can you modernize my older mid-century University City home?
Yes. Much of South University City was built in the 1960s and 1970s, and those homes often still have their original kitchens, baths, and closed floor plans. We specialize in modernizing them, whether that means updating finishes, reworking layouts, or opening walls for an open-concept feel that suits how people live today while protecting the home’s resale value.
Can you build an ADU on my University City property?
Yes. University City’s lots are often well suited to accessory dwelling units, and an ADU near UCSD and the UTC job core can add rental income or space for family. We design and build both detached and attached ADUs and manage the City of San Diego permitting throughout.
