Spruce ADU Builders Los Angeles designs and builds whole-home renovations across central and Westside LA. A whole-home renovation is the chance to keep the home and the neighborhood you love while reworking the layout, modernizing the kitchen and baths, updating the wiring and plumbing, and bringing the finishes up to current taste and code. We plan the renovation as one project, scope it honestly, and build it with one accountable crew.

When a whole-house renovation is the answer
A whole-home renovation makes sense when the bones of the house are good but the layout, the systems, or the finishes no longer fit how you live. Older LA homes, the bungalows, Spanish-style houses, and mid-century builds that fill these neighborhoods, often pair real character and solid structure with closed-off floor plans, dated kitchens and baths, and wiring and plumbing well past their prime. A renovation lets you keep the character and fix the rest.
It is often the better value than moving or rebuilding when the location and the structure are worth keeping, which on a desirable city lot they frequently are. The expensive shell, the foundation and much of the framing, is already there. A renovation reworks what is inside it for far less than starting over, while preserving what made the home worth buying in the first place.
The key is honestly assessing what the home really needs. We study the structure, the systems, and the layout, then tell you plainly what deserves to stay and what should be reworked, rather than selling a one-size-fits-all gut-everything package you may not need.
Layout, systems, and finishes reworked in concert
A whole-home renovation can touch almost everything. Walls come down to open up the plan, kitchens and baths get redesigned around how the household actually uses them, and the wiring, plumbing, and mechanical systems are updated to current code while the walls are open, which is exactly the right time to do it.
Because the systems and the layout are reworked together, the result is coherent rather than patched. New electrical and plumbing are routed for the new layout, insulation and efficiency are addressed while the walls are open, and the finishes tie the whole home together instead of mixing eras room to room.
We treat the renovation as one project so the parts work in concert, and you have the plan and the written price in hand before we open a wall. No surprises about scope or cost arise once the work is under way.
One crew, a true plan, a managed project
With demolition, structural work, new systems, and a complete finish package, a whole-home renovation is exactly why a single design-build crew matters. We own every phase, so the new work connects cleanly with what stays and the project stays accountable throughout.
We stage the work to keep the home as livable as the scope permits and to complete it efficiently once it begins, and we keep you informed on progress and the next steps throughout. One team owns the entire job, so there is no coordinating separate trades yourself and no finger-pointing when something needs adjusting.
