*Please Call Directly* WE SPECIALIZE IN COMPLETE REMODELING PROJECTS WITH A MINIMUM COST OF $5,000. We are a team of skilled craftsmen each with many years of experience remodeling kitchens and baths in the Orange County area. At Coastal Kitchens Inc. instead of a showroom we use door style, finish and kitchen cabinet samples, as well as photo design books and CAD on laptops to display your kitchen as it is designed. This way we eliminate the need and the cost associated with a showroom business model. This makes the design process more convenient for our customers, and we pass the significant savings on to them as well. Our design process also allows us to spend more time working on our customer’s designs. This is what we enjoy most about our business and it is what makes the difference between an average and a great kitchen design. Why should I work with Coastal Kitchens Inc.? John (the owner) has 34 years of experience in the remodeling field along with his experienced team. Our top priority is ensuring you receive the highest value for your dollars. This means we will sometimes suggest less expensive options for some aspects of your kitchen to accommodate better investments for others. For example, we can often recommend a cabinet door style that will appear identical and cost substantially less leaving you more dollars for your overall renovation. One of our guiding principles at Coastal Kitchens Inc. is that the best investment in your kitchen is always your design first and your door style second. Exceeding expectations, but never your budget. Contact us through email at [email protected] for faster response. Credit card purchases are welcome however we charge a small convenience fee.

"We are so glad we chose Coastal Kitchens and Baths Inc. for our remodeling project. They did such a great job on our master bath, guest bath, and the flooring throughout our house. The luxury vinyl looks amazing and completely transformed our home. John was very hands-on and made sure everything was completed with attention to detail. I could even text him late in the evening—sometimes around 9:30—and he would respond right away. That level of communication and dedication made the whole process smooth and stress-free. We are extremely happy with the results and would definitely use Coastal Kitchens and Baths Inc. again."

"Our backyard remodel with D2A Construction was a fantastic experience. Dani was our point person and made everything so easy. He was professional, patient, and made sure we were comfortable with every decision. The crew worked quickly but never rushed, focusing on quality and details. From the new patio stones to the outdoor kitchen area, everything was executed perfectly. Communication was excellent, and we never felt out of the loop.

"Excellent. My house is 70 years old & really needed to be updated. This was a scary process for me. I’ve never been able to afford to hire anyone to do any kind of remodeling & was scared of stories from family & friends who have been ripped off having any work done on their houses. I was really impressed with the ideas Dereck had for my bathrooms & especially for my kitchen which made no sense. He took me shopping to pick out materials & with his knowledge & expertise guided me with my choices for tile, flooring, fixtures, etc. I love all of the men who did the work. They know what they are doing & were really meticulous making sure that everything was done to perfection & they cleaned up after themselves everyday. This has been a very long process because of course they ran into problems with some of the plumbing & then had to repipe the house because there was no water pressure. The bathrooms & kitchen have all been totally gutted & redesigned. I love the way it’s all turned out & so glad I went through all this construction including the frustration at times LOL.It was totally worth it."

Opulent Design Build . One point of contact from Start to Finish. Opulent Design Build takes the complicated process of home designing, building and remodeling and makes it an experience that you will love! There's no need to fear the design & construction process. Opulent Design Build personally handles every aspect of the construction process: design, engineering, site survey, permitting, construction and inspections. We are truly a "one-stop" design-build company.

"My wife and I were looking into adding some square footage to our home as well as remodel. We were going in circles trying to plan and budget and it honestly was one of the most stressful/hardest experiences of our marriage. That was until we stumbled upon Opulent. I do not remember how we found them, but man, I am so glad we did. Eddie and his whole team were OUTSTANDING throughout the whole process. They really made us feel like we were part of the Opulent Family as well as producing real results. They managed EVERYTHING just about perfectly. From dealing with the permit process to helping us figure out what we needed to fill our space with beautiful fixtures to actually getting the construction done. The preconstruction process was so simple thanks to their amazing team and construction flowed so smoothly. The field workers were respectful and clean every day. 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Thank you Opulent!!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Neglecting to repair or replace a sagging floor can expose you to the risk of injury and your home to serious structural damage. When sagging floors are caused by termites, water damage, or weak foundations, holding off on completing the work can lead to a more costly repair bill as the problem can worsen over time.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
