Kitchen Remodeling project by American Reliable Construction & Remodeling in the Sherman Oaks area

Most Sherman Oaks kitchens were built for a different way of living. The ranch and traditional homes in the flats north of Ventura Boulevard typically have a closed galley kitchen, a separate dining room and a 100-amp panel that was generous in 1958 and is a problem for an induction range today. Our kitchen projects here usually start by opening that kitchen to the rooms around it — which means an engineered beam, a permit, and a plan for where the new cooking, prep and gathering zones go.

American Reliable Construction & Remodeling designs and builds those kitchens from our office at 15260 Ventura Blvd, a few minutes from every street in Sherman Oaks. We measure the space, design the layout with you, price every cabinet, slab and fixture in a written estimate, pull the LADBS permit and run the build with one coordinator on site.

Decisions We Walk You Through
Open the wall, or work within the footprint?
Opening a Sherman Oaks galley kitchen to the dining or family room is the single most transformative move, and it is also where structural cost lives. We tell you at the first visit whether the wall is bearing and what the beam and permit path looks like, so you can decide with real numbers.
Cabinetry: custom, semi-custom or stock?
Custom cabinetry fits odd walls and older, out-of-square rooms exactly and gives the widest finish choice. Semi-custom lines cost less and arrive faster. We price the option that fits the design and your timeline, not the one with the highest margin.
Countertops and the island
Quartz for durability, quartzite or marble for natural stone, porcelain slabs for a thin modern profile. Island size is set by clearances — 42 inches minimum in walkways — before it is set by looks.
Electrical capacity
Induction cooking, a wall oven, a wine fridge and a dishwasher together often exceed an original panel. We assess the panel early so a service upgrade, if needed, is in the estimate rather than a surprise.
Permits & Inspections in Sherman Oaks
  • Sherman Oaks is within the City of Los Angeles; kitchen permits are issued by LADBS, usually through the Van Nuys office.
  • Removing or altering a bearing wall, relocating plumbing, or adding circuits requires a permit and inspections. Cosmetic-only work (cabinet fronts, counters in place) generally does not.
  • Panel upgrades are coordinated with LADWP for the service change.
  • We prepare drawings, submit for plan check, respond to corrections and schedule every inspection. Requirements change; we confirm them with LADBS before finalizing the estimate.

Timeline

Design and selections typically take a few weeks; LADBS plan check for structural work adds time before construction. Once demolition starts, most Sherman Oaks kitchens take one to two months, driven mainly by cabinetry lead times and whether walls or plumbing move. You receive a written schedule before we begin.

“We finally redid the kitchen after years of just working around it. The old cabinets were particle board and starting to fall apart, so we switched to solid plywood boxes with soft close hardware. They paired that with quartz countertops…”

Ashley
Kitchen Remodel

“We recently completed a room addition along with a full roof customization, and the results are amazing. The team was professional, organized, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. The new room looks like it has always been part of the house, and the new roof was installed perfectly. Highly recommend their services!”

Charline
Room Addition & Roofing

“I didn't think a bathroom could make that much of a difference until this one was finished. We kept the design pretty timeless with a walk in shower, porcelain tile, and a wood vanity, and it completely changed the feel of the space. It feels cleaner, more open, and just a lot more enjoyable to use every day.”
