AfterConstruction Services in West Hollywood, FL
Construction in West Hollywood covers a lot of ground, from kitchen remodels in older courtyard buildings to full roof replacements on homes along Hollywood Boulevard. Most projects here run between $8,000 and $95,000 depending on scope, with kitchens and additions at the higher end. If you’re planning work and want a straight answer on cost, permitting, and how long it’ll take, call Barrett & Sons Construction at (877) 610-1318. We answer the phone with a live person, day or night.
We know West Hollywood‘s buildings. The housing stock leans heavily toward 1950s and 1960s stucco apartment buildings alongside 1920s through 1940s courtyard bungalow complexes. That changes how a remodel gets framed, where plumbing runs, and what the inspector will ask about before signing off. Tom Barrett and his sons are on-site for most jobs, and every permit gets pulled before a single nail moves. If you’ve been burned by a contractor before, you’ll notice the difference within the first phone call.

Why West Hollywood Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Most of the people we work for in West Hollywood have already been through a bad remodel or a roof that leaked six months after the crew packed up. They’re not shopping for the lowest bid. They want a contractor who answers his own phone, puts every price change on paper, and shows up when he says he will. That’s how we’ve operated since Tom founded the company in 1998, and it’s why homeowners in the Oakwood and West Hollywood West neighborhoods call us first when something needs fixing or building.
Tom Barrett publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look us up before you sign anything. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and that’s exactly how we like it. We run background-checked crews, we carry full insurance, and every completed job is backed by our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call.
We also honor four standing offers on every West Hollywood job: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge inside the county, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans.
Construction Services We Offer in West Hollywood
Kitchen Remodeling
West Hollywood kitchens often sit in older buildings where moving a sink means moving a plumbing riser that two other units share. We plan around that from day one, and we bring brands you can look up, like KraftMaid and Cambria, so you know exactly what’s going into your home.

Bathroom Remodeling
Bathrooms in WeHo’s older stock frequently hide galvanized plumbing and uneven floors under layers of tile. We scope it honestly, write every allowance on paper, and replace what actually needs replacing, not what’s easy to upsell.

Roofing
Flat and low-slope roofs dominate this area, and they fail differently than pitched roofs in the suburbs. Barrett & Sons installs GAF and CertainTeed systems rated for South Florida’s heat and storm season, with permits pulled on every job.

Windows & Doors
Impact-rated windows from Simonton, PGT, and CGI do more than keep storms out. They cut noise on busy streets like Hollywood Boulevard and drop your cooling bill in the summer. We measure, order, and install with a written change order for anything that shifts scope.
Fence Installation
Whether it’s privacy fencing around a rear yard or a boundary line replacement near a shared wall, we pull the permit and build it to code. Written quote before work starts. No surprises.
Driveway & Pavers
Pavers from Belgard and Techo-Bloc hold up better than plain concrete on West Hollywood’s clay-heavy soils, which shift with every dry season. We grade properly the first time so you’re not re-leveling in three years.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in West Hollywood means working around strict setbacks and a city plan-check queue that moves at its own pace. We handle the drawings, the permits, and the inspections, start to finish.

Neighborhoods We Serve in West Hollywood
We work all over West Hollywood and know which streets bring which surprises. Typical response time for a quote or site visit across the area is same day or next morning, depending on when you call.
- Oakwood - older courtyard buildings, frequent knob-and-tube wiring behind remodel walls.
- West Hollywood West - the classic 1950s and 1960s dingbat apartments that dominate the city.
- Norma Triangle - smaller bungalow courts and tight access for equipment.
- Tri-West - mixed commercial and residential work with stricter parking constraints.
- Kings Road - hillside-adjacent lots where clay soil expansion affects driveways and slab work.
Why West Hollywood’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
West Hollywood gets almost no rain from May through September. The expansive clay soils common on the northern, hillside-adjacent lots dry out and shrink during those months, then swell again when the winter rains arrive. That cycle stresses slab foundations, retaining walls, and paver work, and it routinely triggers soils engineering requirements on any ground-disturbing permit in those areas. A contractor who doesn’t know this will pour a driveway that heaves within two years. We’ve seen it happen on streets above Sunset, and we plan for it before the first shovel hits dirt.
The housing stock adds another layer. Most of West Hollywood is dense multi-unit buildings, not single-family homes. That means shared walls, neighbor notifications, egress rules, and sometimes working around rent-controlled tenants still living in place. Barrett & Sons has managed enough of these jobs to handle the logistics without the client getting dragged into the middle. We coordinate the permits, the access, and the people.
Pricing for Construction in West Hollywood
Honest numbers matter, so here’s what you can expect in West Hollywood. A bathroom remodel typically runs $15,000 to $35,000. Kitchens land between $25,000 and $65,000 depending on cabinets, counters, and whether walls move. Roof replacement on a flat or low-slope building ranges $9,000 to $25,000.

FAQs About Construction in West Hollywood
A kitchen remodel in West Hollywood typically runs $25,000 to $65,000, with final cost driven by cabinet brand, countertop material, and whether you’re moving plumbing or walls. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
No, not silently. Any scope change comes to you as a written change order before work proceeds, and you approve it before a dollar moves. That’s how Tom Barrett has run every job since 1998.
Yes. West Hollywood runs its own building department and plan-check queue, separate from LADBS and neighboring cities. We pull permits on every eligible job and make sure inspections are signed before we call the job done.
Most flat and low-slope roof replacements in West Hollywood take three to seven working days once materials arrive and weather cooperates. We’ll give you a written schedule before work begins and stick to it.
We do. Much of West Hollywood’s construction involves multi-unit courtyard buildings and dingbat apartments, which come with shared-wall, egress, and neighbor-notification requirements. We handle all of it, including jobs where tenants remain in place during the work. Call (877) 610-1318 to talk through your building’s specifics.

What West Hollywood Customers Say
"Came back a year later to sort a door that had dropped as the frame settled. No charge and no argument about whether it was covered."
- Thaddeus Oyelowo"Addition over the garage matched the original roofline and brickwork so closely that visitors do not realise it was added. He tracked down the closest brick he could find rather than settling."
- Gideon Stroud"The bathroom was finished on the day he said at the start, which nobody had led me to believe was possible."
- Loretta Vanterpool
