ADU Company in Temecula, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Temecula means working with 1980s-to-2000s tract homes where the original layouts, cabinet boxes, and appliance rough-ins are now 20 to 40 years old. The stucco-and-tile Mediterranean stock is solid, but the kitchens inside were built for a different era, and the hot inland climate punishes cheap finishes fast. Fullerton ADU Builders handles kitchen remodels across Temecula, and we also build ADUs and remodel bathrooms for homeowners who want one contractor for the whole property. Call (877) 801-4497 to talk through your project.
Why Temecula Homes Are Different
Temecula is a master-planned, HOA-heavy wine-country suburb, and that changes how every remodel and ADU project gets approved. Most of the housing stock went up in the 1980s through the early 2000s, which means stucco exteriors, tile roofs, and small suburban lots where setbacks and HOA architectural committees often rule harder than city code. In the tract subdivisions like Redhawk and Rancho Vista, any visible change to the property, from a kitchen window relocation to a detached ADU, can trigger a CC&R review before the city even looks at the plans.
Out in Wine Country and De Portola, the 92592 rural-residential parcels play by a different book entirely. Lots are larger, equestrian zoning applies in places, and wildland-urban interface rules add fire-resistant detailing requirements. The summer heat is serious here, with intense sun and periodic Santa Ana winds, so kitchen ventilation, cooling loads, and exterior material choices matter more than they would in a coastal city. We plan Temecula projects for that reality from day one.
Our Main Temecula Services
Most Temecula homeowners call us about one of two things: adding a rentable or multigenerational ADU to their lot, or bringing a dated bathroom up to current standards. Here is where each one starts.
ADU Builders in Temecula
Adding an ADU in Temecula means navigating two approval tracks at once: the city’s ADU and zoning rules, and your HOA’s architectural committee if you live in a tract subdivision. We build detached backyard units, garage conversions, and prefab ADUs from brands like Abodu, Cover, and Dvele, and we match the unit to the lot rather than pushing one product. For Wine Country parcels where the ADU often becomes a guest house or short-term rental for wine-tasting visitors, the fire-resistant exterior detailing is non-negotiable. ADU Builders in Temecula
Bathroom Remodeling in Temecula
Bathrooms in Temecula’s 1990s and 2000s tract homes are typically small, interior, and vented with builder-grade fans that struggle against the inland heat and humidity. A remodel here often means adding real mechanical ventilation, replacing a fiberglass tub-shower combo with a properly waterproofed tile surround, and reworking the layout to fit a double vanity where the original floor plan never had one. We handle the permit, the plumbing rough-in, and the finish work as one scope. Bathroom Remodeling in Temecula

Kitchen Remodeling in Temecula
Kitchen remodeling in Temecula usually means opening up a closed-off 1990s galley or L-shaped kitchen, replacing worn-out cabinet boxes and laminate counters, and fixing the ventilation so the room does not turn into an oven during July and August. Fullerton ADU Builders has served Temecula since 2017, and we spec materials for the inland heat: paint-grade or natural wood cabinets that hold up to dry air, quartz counters that do not fade under direct sun, and range hoods that actually move air. If you are also considering an ADU or a bathroom update, we can bundle the scopes into one permit package and one contractor relationship. See our full Kitchen Remodeling service page for details on how we work.
Cabinet Replacement
Signs you need it
Your cabinet boxes are delaminating at the corners, drawer slides are failing, or the original 1990s oak faces are so worn and dated that painting them would not solve the layout problem.
What it costs in Temecula
Semi-custom cabinet replacement for a typical 150-to-200-square-foot Temecula kitchen runs $12,000 to $28,000 depending on species, door style, and whether you change the layout.
How we do it
We measure, order the boxes and doors, remove the old cabinets carefully to preserve drywall and flooring where possible, then install the new boxes, hardware, and trim with shims and leveling at every run.
Countertop and Backsplash Installation
Signs you need it
Your tile counters have cracked grout lines that trap grease, your laminate is peeling at the seams, or you want a surface that can handle hot pans and Temecula’s dry, sunny air without fading.
What it costs in Temecula
Quartz or granite countertops with a tile backsplash typically run $3,500 to $8,000 in Temecula, depending on slab tier and linear footage.
How we do it
We template after the cabinets are set, fabricate the slabs off-site, then install the stone in one day and follow with the backsplash, sealing and caulking all transitions.

Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Temecula?
Yes, if you are moving plumbing, electrical, or walls. A finish-only refresh, like counters and cabinet fronts on the same footprint, usually does not. We pull permits when the scope requires them and can confirm the exact path for your project.
Will the price change once work starts?
Not on our fixed-price bids. We write line-item quotes, inspect behind the drywall before finalizing the number, and treat change orders as the exception, not the rule. Call (877) 801-4497 for an exact quote.

What Temecula Customers Say
"Garage conversion to a one bedroom unit. He handled the plans, the city submittal, and every round of corrections. Took six months from first meeting to final inspection and he never once made the permit process my problem."
— Tim Padgett"The kitchenette layout he suggested made better use of the space than the one on our original sketch."
— Marisol Guzman"Unit came out great and the tenant is happy. The timeline ran long, largely because of how slow the city was on plan check, though a couple of the delays were scheduling on their end."
— Greg Reed
