The Right Image Approach

Big Lots, Open Kitchens,
Built for the Heat

Woodland Hills sits at the far west end of the San Fernando Valley, and the housing tells that story: larger ranch and traditional homes on generous, suburban lots, built for families rather than starter budgets. That space is an opportunity — these homes have the room for the open-concept great-room kitchen that a tighter tract lot simply can't accommodate.

But Woodland Hills has a second reality that shapes every project we do here: heat. It is one of the hottest spots in all of Los Angeles in summer, and the older homes were built with thin insulation and cooling systems that were never sized for triple-digit afternoons. A smart Woodland Hills kitchen remodel isn't only about cabinets and stone — it's the moment to fix the envelope. With the walls and ceilings open, we add insulation, upgrade or extend the HVAC, and swap in heat-smart, low-E windows.

We do all of it under one roof: demolition, framing, rough plumbing and electrical, cabinetry, countertop templating and installation, tile, HVAC and insulation, and finish carpentry. One contract covers design, LADBS, City of Los Angeles, with Baseline Hillside Ordinance review south of Ventura Boulevard 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 and closed. Woodland Hills falls under the City of LA, so we submit through LADBS — including the Title 24 energy documentation the city requires — and carry the project all the way to signed-off final inspection.

What We Build

Full Scope,
Nothing Farmed Out

01

Custom & Semi-Custom Cabinetry

Shaker, slab, inset, and Eurostyle cabinet programs built and installed by our own team — dovetail drawer boxes, soft-close hardware, pantry and organization systems. On the larger Woodland Hills floor plans there's room for a full-height pantry wall and a real working island.

02

Islands & Stone Countertops

We work directly with stone fabricators — no middleman markup. Quartz (Silestone, Cambria, Caesarstone, MSI), quartzite, granite, porcelain slab, and natural marble. The generous lots here support big waterfall islands, integrated undermount sinks, and matched backsplash.

03

Open-Concept Conversions

The signature Woodland Hills project: taking out the wall between a closed kitchen and the living room to create a true great room. We coordinate the structural engineering, beam sizing, temporary shoring, and LVL or steel install — all permitted through LADBS, all under our contract.

04

Title 24, HVAC & Insulation

The Woodland Hills difference. With the walls open, we add insulation, upgrade or extend HVAC, and install heat-smart low-E windows — the measures that make a west-Valley kitchen livable in summer and meet California's Title 24 energy code, which every permitted remodel in the state has to satisfy.

05

Tile, Backsplash & Flooring

Large-format porcelain, handmade ceramic, natural stone, subway, and zellige — installed by our in-house tile crew with proper edge and transition systems. New flooring flows the kitchen into the adjacent rooms once the wall is gone.

06

Electrical, Plumbing & Permits

Dedicated circuits, GFCI protection, island power, and panel work where the older homes need it. We handle the rough-in, the LADBS inspections, and the sign-off — including the energy documentation — so the kitchen is safe, efficient, and legal.

How we work with you

Transparent from the first visit to the closed permit.

Professional, licensed and insured, and we put that in writing at every step, because a remodel is a trust decision before it is a construction decision.

Licensed and insured, verifiable

California general contractor license CSLB #1021284 (General Building B), active since 2016, with general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Check the license yourself at cslb.ca.gov before you sign anything, with us or anyone else.

A written scope before a dollar changes hands

The proposal lists what is demolished, what is built, which finishes are included and which permit covers it. If it is not written down, it is not in the job.

Photos of what we find, before we continue

When walls, floors or roofs open up we photograph what is behind them and send you the pictures. Anything beyond the scope is priced in writing before the crew continues. You never find out from the invoice.

The deposit rule, in your favor

California law caps a home-improvement deposit at $1,000 or 10 percent of the contract, whichever is less. We follow it. Progress payments follow the work, and the final payment comes after your walkthrough.

Permits pulled and closed in your name

We submit the plans, meet the inspector and close the permit. You get the closed-permit record, which is what a buyer, an insurer or an appraiser will ask for.

One licensed crew, one phone number

The people who estimate the job are the people who build it. No subcontractor hand-offs, no call center; your project lead answers the phone during the job and after it.

Building in Woodland Hills

West Valley Homes,
West Valley Summers

Woodland Hills is a suburban, family-oriented pocket at the west end of the Valley, and the kitchen work reflects it. In Walnut Acres and Vista de Oro, we see larger ranch and traditional homes on deep lots — the kind of floor plan that's practically asking to become an open-concept great room. Closer to the Warner Center edge, the mix shifts toward newer construction and townhomes, but the homeowner goals are the same: a bigger, brighter, cooler kitchen at the heart of the house.

The defining local factor is heat. Woodland Hills routinely runs among the hottest readings in Los Angeles on summer afternoons, and the original homes here simply weren't built for it. That's why nearly every full remodel we do becomes an energy project too — insulation, HVAC, and heat-smart windows folded into the same scope as the cabinets and stone. It's the single biggest difference between a Woodland Hills kitchen and one across the Valley floor.

Because Woodland Hills is City of Los Angeles, everything is permitted through LADBS, including the Title 24 energy compliance that these upgrades trigger. We handle the full submittal and inspection process. Our shop is in Valley Glen, a straight drive east on the 101 — close enough that a project lead stays hands-on through demo, framing, and final.

Our kitchen went from a 1980s relic to something out of Architectural Digest. Right Image Builders was meticulous with every detail — the cabinetry alignment, the backsplash grout, the countertop templating. Genuinely impressive work.

Woodland Hills Kitchen FAQ

Questions We
Hear in Woodland Hills

Yes. Woodland Hills is under the City of Los Angeles, so your kitchen remodel is permitted through LADBS. We handle the entire process: plan submission, plan check corrections, and scheduling the rough and final inspections. Because Woodland Hills projects so often touch energy scope — new HVAC, insulation, or heat-smart windows — we also carry the Title 24 energy documentation that the city requires. If we open a wall for an open-concept layout, the structural drawings and beam calcs are part of our scope. You never set foot in a permit counter.
A Woodland Hills kitchen remodel typically runs 5–8 weeks from the construction start date. Refresh-level projects that keep the existing footprint finish faster; open-concept projects that remove a load-bearing wall, relocate plumbing, or add HVAC and insulation work add 1–2 weeks. You receive a committed milestone schedule before demolition begins.
Yes — and it's the most common request we get in Woodland Hills. The larger ranch and traditional homes here sit on generous lots that easily support an open-concept great room, but the original 1960s–70s floor plans still wall the kitchen off. We remove that wall, design and size the LVL or steel beam with a structural engineer, install temporary shoring, and carry the whole thing through LADBS on permit. The beam, the shoring, the permit, and the inspection are all under our one contract.
Usually, yes. Woodland Hills is one of the hottest spots in Los Angeles in summer, and the older homes here were built with thin insulation and undersized cooling. When the walls and ceiling are already open for a kitchen remodel, it is the ideal — and most cost-effective — time to add insulation, upgrade or extend HVAC, and swap in heat-smart, low-E windows. These measures also meet California's Title 24 energy code, which every permitted remodel in the state has to satisfy, and we build them into the fixed price up front so they are never a surprise change order.
