San Francisco Home Renovation
San Francisco homeowners face a unique set of challenges when it comes to renovation: stringent DBI permit requirements, historic preservation rules in neighborhoods like Noe Valley and the Castro, seismic retrofit compliance, and the logistical complexity of working in dense urban lots. Homee Renovation has navigated all of it — across 50+ completed SF projects.
Our team has deep familiarity with San Francisco's Department of Building Inspection (DBI) process, including the over-the-counter permit pathway for smaller projects and the full plan check process for ADUs, room additions, and structural work. We manage the entire permit lifecycle on your behalf — from initial application through final inspection sign-off.
Beyond permitting, SF homeowners benefit from our wholesale material dealer relationships, saving an average of 30% on kitchen cabinets, bath fixtures, hardware, flooring, and countertops. Combined with our in-house designer (included free with every project), Homee Renovation delivers a complete design-build experience at a price point that's hard to match in the Bay Area.
Whether you're renovating a Victorian in the Haight, modernizing a condo in SoMa, adding a backyard ADU in the Outer Sunset, or doing a full gut renovation in Pacific Heights — Homee Renovation is your single accountable team from design through final walkthrough.
