If you own a home in Incline Village, you already know the score: the permit on your kitchen addition doesn’t just come from one office. It comes from Washoe County and the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, and if your parcel’s coverage allocation is maxed out, the project stops before it starts. We know because we’ve sorted through exactly that with neighbors on Lakeshore Boulevard and in the Fairview area. Barrett & Sons Construction handles kitchen remodels, bathrooms, roofing, windows, fences, driveways, and full additions across the 89450, 89451, and 89452 zip codes. Call (877) 610-1318 and a live person answers, any hour.

Why Incline Village Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Most of our Incline Village customers are between 50 and 70, own a second home or a primary residence that’s been in the family since the Tahoe boom years, and have already been burned once. They hired a company that quoted one number on the phone and produced another at the door. That’s the problem Tom Barrett built this company to eliminate in 1998. Tom’s name, his address, and his license number are published for anyone to verify. His sons run the crews. The person who shakes your hand at the start is the person who stands behind the job at the end, and every price change arrives as a written change order before a nail moves.
We don’t dispatch strangers. Crew members are background-checked and wear the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on every contract: if something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. We’ve worked on ski-chalet style homes near Diamond Peak and ranch houses off Village Boulevard, and we’re familiar with what those structures need. A live person answers the phone 24/7, and the estimator who comes to your door lives no more than a short drive from the lake.
Construction Services We Offer in Incline Village
Kitchen Remodeling in Incline Village
Kitchens in 1960s and 1970s Incline Village homes often have footprint problems you won’t find in newer builds: bearing walls in awkward places, plumbing roughed in for a different era. We handle the full remodel, and if you’re in Incline Village, the snow-load and coverage-allocation questions come up early, not as a surprise later. Learn more about our Kitchen Remodeling in Incline Village.
Bathroom Remodeling in Incline Village
Bathrooms in Tahoe second homes sit empty for months, then get hammered during ski season and summer rental weeks. That cycle ages tile, valves, and subfloors faster than in year-round homes, and we plan the work around your actual occupancy schedule. Learn more about our Bathroom Remodeling in Incline Village.
Roofing in Incline Village
At 6,300 feet, roofs here take heavy Sierra snow loads and sustained UV exposure that breaks down standard asphalt faster than at lower elevations. Ice dam protection and proper ventilation aren’t optional upgrades; they’re what keeps a roof from failing in February. Learn more about our Roofing in Incline Village.
Windows & Doors
Aluminum-frame sliders from the 1970s leak heat all winter and bake in the summer sun, and drafty doors in a vacation home mean frozen pipes if nobody’s checking. We install Andersen and Marvin, brands you can look up and verify before signing, sized and flashed for high-altitude exposure.
Fence Installation
Bears, deer, and drifting snow all make Incline Village fencing different from fencing in Reno or Sparks. We set posts below frost depth, use hardware rated for heavy snow, and design gates that actually swing after a thaw.
Driveway & Pavers
This is where TRPA coverage math hits hardest. Replacing an old asphalt driveway with new concrete can push a parcel over its impervious coverage limit. We often shift projects to permeable pavers from Techo-Bloc, which keep the driveway functional, protect lake clarity, and satisfy the coverage requirement. Learn more about our home services.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in Incline Village means proving you have coverage credits available before the design is finalized. If you don’t, the addition is dead until you retire coverage elsewhere on the lot or purchase credits from another parcel. We handle that analysis up front, not after you’ve paid an architect.

Why Incline Village’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Incline Village sits at roughly 6,300 feet on Lake Tahoe’s north shore, and the construction season is compressed. Overnight lows can freeze concrete before it cures, so we follow cold-weather curing protocols and schedule pours around the forecast. Heavy Sierra snowfall means a roof that’s merely adequate in Carson City may not survive a March storm cycle up here. Frost-rated foundations are required, and TRPA-mandated Best Management Practices for erosion control must stay in place on any active site for the entire season. None of this is optional, and we don’t treat it as an add-on fee.
Most of the housing stock was built during the 1960s through 1980s resort boom. Those ski-chalet and ranch homes were often framed for older, lighter snow-load codes, and many need structural upgrades before you can safely add a second story or open a load-bearing wall. A large share of these properties are vacation or second homes owned by Bay Area and Silicon Valley residents who aren’t on site to watch the work. That means the contractor has to document everything in writing, communicate clearly from a distance, and never leave a surprise invoice waiting at the end. That’s how we work with every Incline Village client.

FAQs About Construction in Incline Village
A kitchen remodel in Incline Village typically runs $45,000 to $110,000 or more, depending on square footage, structural changes, and whether TRPA coverage reviews are triggered. For an exact number, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll do a free site visit.
Yes. Almost any project that increases impervious surface, including decks, patios, and driveway expansions, requires TRPA review in addition to Washoe County permitting. If your parcel’s coverage allocation is already maxed out, the project can’t proceed until you retire coverage elsewhere or purchase credits. We check this before design begins.
Our price changes only if the scope changes, and every scope change arrives as a written change order before any work happens. No verbal surprises, no end-of-job invoice shock. That’s been the rule since 1998.
Yes. A significant portion of our Incline Village clients are not on site during construction. We provide written updates, photos, and documentation at each phase, and we use change orders so you know exactly what’s happening before it happens.
We do. Many 1960s and 1970s ski-chalet homes need structural reinforcement to meet current snow-load requirements before any addition or major remodel. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we want that inspection signed.

What Incline Village 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
