Why Homeland Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Homeland sits on expansive adobe clay, and we’ve dug enough footings here to know what that means. Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews, so the name on the contract is the name on the truck. We work in neighborhoods across Homeland, from the older lots near Highway 74 to the rural parcels off Juniper Flats Road and the manufactured home communities along Stetson Avenue. We pull every permit through Riverside County Building and Safety, and when an inspection gets signed, you get a copy. The inspector works for you, not for me, that’s why I like him.
Every job comes with the 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on the contract: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right, one call. We also publish Tom’s name, address, and license number, so you can look us up before signing anything. And if another contractor gave you a written estimate, we’ll give you a free second opinion on it.
Construction Services We Offer in Homeland
Kitchen Remodeling
A Homeland kitchen remodel starts with what’s under the floor, not just what goes on top of it. We install KraftMaid cabinetry and Cambria countertops, and we’ll spec the work for adobe conditions from the first measurement. Learn more about our Kitchen Remodeling in Homeland.
Bathroom Remodeling
Bathrooms on Homeland’s older slabs often hide wet-rot and plumbing runs that need addressing before tile goes down. We handle the full scope, permits to final inspection, with every change order in writing. Learn more about our Bathroom Remodeling in Homeland.
Roofing
Summer heat over 105°F and Santa Ana winds take a toll on roofing underlayment and flashing faster than most homeowners expect. We install GAF and CertainTeed systems rated for this valley’s conditions, and we pull the permit. Learn more about our Roofing in Homeland.
Windows & Doors
Original mid-century windows on Homeland homes leak heat in summer and let it out in winter. We carry Simonton and PGT lines, sized and flashed for the temperature swings we get here. Learn more about our Windows & Doors in Homeland by calling (877) 610-1318.
Fence Installation
Rural Homeland parcels often need fencing run across uneven ground and around outbuildings. We set posts below the caliche line where needed and build fencing that stays true through wet winters and dry summers.
Driveway & Pavers
Expansive adobe moves driveways unless the base is over-excavated and properly compacted. We use Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers on prepared bases built for Homeland’s wet-dry cycle, not a coastal beach town’s.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in unincorporated Homeland means Riverside County permits, fire-rated assemblies under CAL FIRE standards, and engineered footings for expansive soil. We handle all three, with written change orders on every adjustment.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Homeland
We work across the entire 92548 zip code. Our crews are routinely in these areas:
- Lots along Highway 74 and Stetson Avenue
- Juniper Flats Road and surrounding rural parcels
- Manufactured home communities throughout the valley floor
- Athol Street and the central Homeland area
- Parcels near Double Butte and the eastern edge of the community
Typical time from your call to a site visit runs one to two business days, depending on crew scheduling.
Why Homeland’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Homeland sits on the floor of the San Jacinto Valley, and the soil is the story. The expansive adobe clay swells with winter rains and shrinks hard in summer heat, which heaves slabs, cracks foundations, and shifts anything not built for it. We’ve seen driveways split by soil movement that had nothing to do with bad concrete, and additions that pulled away from original structures because the footing wasn’t engineered for the shrink-swell cycle. On many parcels there’s also a caliche layer just below the topsoil, a hardpan calcium carbonate crust that fools standard footing excavations and ponds drainage against foundations. Contractors who learned their trade in Menifee or Hemet sometimes miss it entirely. We probe for it.
Because Homeland is unincorporated, every permit and inspection runs through Riverside County Building and Safety rather than a city department. That’s an extra layer of process that out-of-area contractors routinely underestimate, and it’s a layer we know well. Add in summer temperatures over 105°F, Santa Ana wind events that push CAL FIRE construction standards, and a housing stock of mid-century site-built homes, manufactured housing, and rural outbuildings, and you get a fairly clear picture: the work here rewards contractors who plan for the site, not against it.
Pricing for Construction in Homeland
Honest pricing in Homeland depends on what we find under the surface, and that’s exactly why we don’t quote blind over the phone. As a rough range for planning, expect the following starting points:
- Kitchen remodels typically begin around $30,000 and rise with cabinet, countertop, and structural scope.
- Bathroom remodels generally run $14,000 to $35,000 depending on size and plumbing conditions.
- Roofs on Homeland homes typically fall between $9,000 and $18,000 for a full replacement, depending on pitch and decking condition.
- Driveway and paver installations vary widely with square footage and base prep; most start near $8,000.
- Home additions and ADUs depend on engineered footings, county permits, and square footage; most projects begin in the $80,000 to $150,000 range.
Every estimate is free. Every allowance and change order arrives in writing before work proceeds. We also honor a permanent 10% Senior & Veteran discount, and $40 off any repair over $200. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote.

FAQs About Construction in Homeland
Kitchen Remodeling in Homeland typically starts around $30,000 and can rise to $60,000 or more depending on cabinet lines, countertop material, and whether we’re repairing foundation movement under the existing slab. We provide written line-item estimates and change orders, so the number you sign is the number you pay. Call (877) 610-1318 for your free estimate.
Yes. Every eligible job in Homeland goes through Riverside County Building and Safety, and we pull all permits and arrange all inspections. Some contractors tell homeowners permits are optional; in an unincorporated area with expansive soil and CAL FIRE standards, they’re not, and skipping them puts your resale at risk.
Only if you change the scope, and only in writing. If we uncover something under the surface, like the caliche layer or rotted framing, we’ll stop and bring you a written change order before any additional work happens. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t work that way.
Most Homeland Roofing replacements take two to four working days, depending on the pitch, the decking condition, and whether we’re working around extreme heat or Santa Ana wind events. We’ll give you a schedule in writing before we start. Call (877) 610-1318 for your free estimate.
We do, and we understand the differences between manufactured housing and site-built homes, including the county standards that apply to permanent and semi-permanent pads in unincorporated Riverside County. Every project gets the same written pricing, permits, and 90-Day Done Right Promise.

What Homeland Customers Say
"Tom Barrett was on our job most days himself, not just at the quote and then never again. When something needed deciding there was an actual person to decide it with."
- Rosalie Pemberton"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."
