We coordinate the proposed interior layout with exterior improvements rather than treating each room as an unrelated job. See the [Fountain Valley Building Division](https://www.fountainvalley.gov/393/Building-Division) for current information. **Plan the interior before selecting finishes.** For your Fountain Valley kitchen or bathroom remodel, we review the layout, wall changes and proposed plumbing, electrical and ventilation work. We help coordinate the design and engineering needed for the agreed scope, including any required energy documentation. **Bring the outdoor plan together.** A patio cover, outdoor kitchen, pool, spa or retaining wall needs to be considered with the site layout, drainage and utilities. We check the requirements for the proposed work before locking in locations and materials. For an ADU or addition, we also review how the new space connects to the existing property. **One team through the next steps.** We help Fountain Valley homeowners move from design and engineering through permit coordination and construction. Applicable HOA approvals, city or county review and inspection stages are built into the project planning. Already have designs or plans? We can work with those, too. ## The experience behind the transformation.
