Right Image Builders is a licensed general contractor remodeling kitchens across Burbank — Magnolia Park, the Rancho equestrian district, and the Media District. We build custom cabinets, islands, and full renovations in-house, with every permit pulled through the City of Burbank's Building Division — Burbank runs its own permitting, separate from Los Angeles. Licensed & insured, CSLB #1021284, based a short drive west in Valley Glen. Free on-site estimate: (818) 210-4544.
Here's the thing most contractors get wrong in Burbank: it isn't Los Angeles. Burbank is its own incorporated city with its own Building Division, its own plan-check process, and its own inspection calendar. A crew that only knows the LADBS system finds that out the hard way, mid-project. We've worked Burbank for over a decade and we know its counter.
The homes here reward that local knowledge. Magnolia Park and Burbank's traditional neighborhoods are full of 1920s–40s Spanish and traditional houses — charming, solid, and built with small, closed-off kitchens that beg to be opened up. Our team handles every trade in-house: demo, framing, structural, cabinetry, stone, tile, and finish. One contract covers design, the City of Burbank Building & Safety Division, not LADBS and construction; the project lead who does your estimate at home runs the build, and the itemized fixed-price proposal follows within 3–5 business days.
And every permit is pulled through the City of Burbank and closed with a signed final inspection — the documentation that protects your home's value and keeps the work fully legal. We're based a short drive west in Valley Glen, close enough that your project lead is on-site regularly, not managing your Burbank kitchen from across the county.
Shaker, inset, and slab cabinet programs sized to the real dimensions of Burbank's older homes — dovetail drawer boxes, soft-close hardware, and organization systems, built and installed by our own team without a cabinet-only subcontractor.
Direct from stone fabricators — no middleman markup. Quartz, quartzite, granite, porcelain slab, and marble, with waterfall islands, integrated sinks, and matched backsplash all in scope.
Taking out the wall between a closed 1920s–40s kitchen and the living space — structural engineering, beam sizing, and shoring — all permitted through the City of Burbank Building Division, with care for the home's original character.
Large-format porcelain, handmade ceramic, natural stone, and zellige, plus wood and engineered flooring that flows the new kitchen into the rest of the home — installed by our in-house tile crew with proper edge and transition systems.
Panel-ready refrigeration, integrated dishwashers, range and hood venting, pot-filler rough-in, and under-cabinet LED — all planned before cabinets are set so nothing is hacked in afterward.
Burbank's older homes usually need electrical brought to current code — dedicated circuits, GFCI protection, island power. We handle the rough-in and the City of Burbank inspections and sign-off, so the kitchen is safe and legal.
The single most important fact about remodeling in Burbank: it is not under Los Angeles. Burbank is its own incorporated city, and every permit runs through the City of Burbank's Building Division — its own plan check, its own fees, its own inspectors. A contractor who assumes the LADBS process will stumble here. We don't.
The neighborhoods each bring their own character. Magnolia Park is the heart of vintage Burbank — 1920s–40s Spanish and traditional homes near the Magnolia Boulevard shopping district. The Rancho District is Burbank's equestrian enclave, where horsekeeping and its associated setback rules shape what you can build and where. The Media District, near Warner Bros. and the studios, mixes traditional homes with a working-professional pace.
Across all of them, the kitchens are older and often closed off — which is exactly the work we love. Based a short drive west in Valley Glen, Burbank is a genuine home market for us: close, familiar, and permitted correctly the first time.
