Concept: what a remodel can reveal. Not a photo of our work.
The honest part

## We opened the wall. Here’s what happens next.

63% of San Dimas homes were built before 1980 (ACS 2024 5-year). Walls hide old panels, gas lines and plumbing. We show you, then price it. No guessing.

Scroll to open the wall
Then tap a numbered pin, or a button above, to see what we found, what it means, and what the options are.

These are examples of what older homes can hide, not a promise about yours.

When we find something

## Stop. Show. Price. You decide.

### Stop

We pause that part of the job. Work elsewhere can keep moving.

### Show

Dallas shows you, in person or with photos. You see what we see.

### Price

We write up the options and the cost before any work on them.

### You decide

You approve the change order in writing, or you don’t. Nothing happens without your OK.

No add-on fees you hear about later.

Your money

## A written price, and payments that follow the work.

### Written price

One fixed-price quote, line by line, before work starts. No surprise add-on fees.

### Payments follow progress

California generally limits a down payment on a home improvement contract to $1,000 or 10% of the contract amount, whichever is less (Business and Professions Code section 7159.5). After that you pay as stages finish.

### Changes in writing

Change orders are written, priced before work, and approved by you.

Whole-home questions

## Straight answers

Where do we start?
With a walk through the house. Dallas writes down what you want, then what the house needs.

Which whole-home jobs need a permit in San Dimas?
Removing or adding walls, windows or doors, plumbing, and electrical (including panel work) need permits. For several trades on one job the city uses a Combination Permit, and inspections must pass before work is covered. Ask us about yours.

What if the budget changes mid-job?
Tell us. We write options and prices, you approve, and the contract changes in writing. Nothing happens on a handshake.
