We review the address and scope before determining which building and planning steps apply to the proposed improvements. See the [Huntington Beach permit portal](https://engage.huntingtonbeachca.gov/CitizenAccess/) for current information. **Plan the interior before selecting finishes.** For your Huntington Beach 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 Huntington Beach 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?

Most cosmetic updates like replacing cabinets, countertops, or fixtures do not require a permit in Huntington Beach. However, any work involving structural changes, moving walls, relocating plumbing, or adding electrical circuits requires a permit through the City of Huntington Beach Community Development Department's Permit Center. We handle all permit applications and plan check submissions for you. ### How do I get a permit for a patio cover in Huntington Beach? Patio covers in Huntington Beach require a building permit and must maintain a minimum 5-foot clearance from side and rear property lines. Open lattice patio covers on a permanent foundation may have different separation requirements from the main structure. Solid roof patio covers also require structural engineering drawings. Our team handles all documentation and manages the full inspection process. ### Can I build an ADU on my Huntington Beach property? Yes. Huntington Beach allows ADUs on all residential zoned properties. Single-family lots can add one ADU up to 1,200 sq ft and one Junior ADU up to 500 sq ft. Detached ADUs require a minimum 4-foot setback from rear and side property lines. The city also offers a Pre-Approved ADU Plan for a 1-story detached 490 sq ft unit that can significantly speed up the approval process. We handle the full design, permitting, and construction of ADUs in Huntington Beach from start to finish. ### How much does a backyard remodel cost in Huntington Beach? A full backyard remodel in Huntington Beach (about 2,000 sq ft) usually starts around $40,000 to $70,000. From there the price depends on the design, like adding a pool, an outdoor kitchen or BBQ island, a fire pit, and new landscaping. Coastal proximity and HOA design requirements can also affect material choices and costs. We provide a detailed itemized estimate after a free on-site consultation and 3D design session. ### What outdoor remodeling projects are most popular in Huntington Beach? The most requested outdoor projects in Huntington Beach include paver patio installations, aluminum and wood patio covers, outdoor kitchen and BBQ island builds, pool installations and remodels, artificial turf, fire pits, and front yard curb appeal upgrades. Huntington Beach's year-round coastal climate makes outdoor living one of the highest-ROI investments a homeowner can make. ### How long does a kitchen remodel take in Huntington Beach? A typical kitchen remodel in Huntington Beach takes 6 to 10 weeks from permit approval to completion, depending on scope. Projects involving structural changes, custom cabinetry, or longer material lead times may take longer.
