Kitchen Remodeling · Sherman Oaks
Closed-off ranch kitchens opened to the living room, hillside kitchens rebuilt from the studs. The warm modern kitchen below is ours.
Kitchens in Sherman Oaks
Most Sherman Oaks kitchens were framed in the 1950s and 60s: a closed-off ranch galley with one window and a wall between the cook and everyone else. You know the fix because you picture it every night at the stove. Take that wall down, put in an island people actually sit at, and layer the lighting so the whole main floor feels new.
Athenian Builders Group is a licensed California design-build contractor (CSLB #1045030) that builds Sherman Oaks kitchens with its own crews. Your price is fixed in writing, your timeline is firm, and every job carries a 2-year workmanship warranty. See our full kitchen remodeling services.

Permits
Sherman Oaks sits inside the City of Los Angeles, so any kitchen project that moves plumbing, gas, electrical, or walls needs an LADBS permit. We draw the plans, pull the permits, and meet every inspector ourselves. You never stand in line at a city counter.

Questions
Yes, in most Sherman Oaks ranch homes. That wall is usually load-bearing, so we size the beam, get the engineering done, and permit the work through LADBS. The open span ends up safe, legal, and inspected.
LADBS. Sherman Oaks is part of the City of Los Angeles, so kitchen permits come through the city, not the county. We handle the submittal, the corrections, and the inspections for you.
Plan on roughly six to twelve weeks of construction for a full kitchen remodel, longer if walls or utilities move. Design, selections, and permitting run before that, on their own clock. You approve the full schedule in writing before demolition day.
Yes. Design-build means one team draws the layout, helps you choose finishes, and then builds it. Every selection is locked in before demolition, so nobody is standing around in week six waiting on a faucet.
