Why Dollhouse
One licensed contractor for the whole project — start to finish.
A whole-home remodel in Glendora is a different animal than a single-room update — and hiring five separate trades to pull it off is how budgets and timelines fall apart. Dollhouse is a licensed general contractor that keeps the entire project in one place. Our in-house architect designs the work and handles the City of Glendora permits; our own crew builds it, coordinating framing, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and finish as a single scope. From opening up a dated layout to adding a second story, a primary suite, or a detached ADU, we plan around your home's structure and your family's day-to-day — then commit to a fixed price and a written start-and-finish date before demo begins. You get weekly walkthroughs with one point of contact and a five-year workmanship warranty. One team, one price, one Glendora home built right the first time.

Plan My Project What It Costs
Honest ranges, not vague "it depends."
Your exact number comes from the free in-home consult. Here's how most foothill projects break down:
Single-room remodel
One room taken down to studs and rebuilt — bath, living space or kitchen — on the existing footprint.
Whole-home remodel
Multiple rooms, a reworked layout, and updated systems and finishes throughout the home.
Addition / ADU
New square footage: room additions, second stories, or a detached accessory dwelling unit.
Every quote is line-item and fixed in writing before you sign. Financing available.

Your start and finish dates go in the contract. Run past finish day on us, and we credit you. No vague excuses.
5-Year Workmanship Warranty
Our work carries a five-year Dollhouse warranty on top of every manufacturer warranty. One call, we make it right.
Common Questions
Straight answers, no upsell.
How much does home remodeling cost in Glendora?
Most Glendora projects land in one of three ranges: a single-room remodel, a whole-home remodel with a reworked layout and updated systems, or an addition/ADU that adds square footage. Rather than guess, we give you a fixed, line-item price at the free in-home visit so the number you see is the number you pay.
Do you handle permits for Glendora additions and ADUs?
Yes — design and permitting are in-house. Our licensed architect draws the plans and handles the City of Glendora permit process for additions, second stories and ADUs. For homes near the Village or designated landmarks, we account for the city’s historic-preservation review up front so nothing stalls later.
How long does a whole-home remodel take?
It varies with scope, but design and permits run before construction and both sets of dates go in your contract. A single-room remodel is measured in weeks; a whole-home remodel or addition runs longer. You will have a written start-and-finish date before you sign.
Do you remodel kitchens too?
Yes — kitchens are one of our specialties. If a kitchen is your main project, see our dedicated Glendora kitchen remodeling page; if it is part of a larger remodel, we fold it into the whole-home scope.
Where We Build
General contracting in Glendora & the surrounding foothills.
Glendora — the "Pride of the Foothills" — runs from early-1900s Craftsman and Spanish Revival bungalows around Glendora Village up to the hillside estate neighborhoods of North Glendora, with large ranch and mid-century tracts in between. The North Glendora hillside lots bring slope, view and access factors that shape additions and ADUs, while the older Village-area homes drive character-sensitive whole-home remodels. Permits run through the City of Glendora Planning Division and Building & Safety, and an active Historic Preservation program means work near the Village or landmarks can face added review.
Our crew lives here. Glendora sits right inside our service area — within a 25-mile radius of San Dimas you'll also find us in San Dimas · La Verne · Claremont · Upland · Rancho Cucamonga · Pasadena · Arcadia · San Marino · Sierra Madre · Monrovia · Covina · Azusa · Duarte · Walnut · Diamond Bar · Chino Hills.
