Prices are fixed at contract signing. NPLD absorbs costs from hidden conditions (rotted subfloor, hidden plumbing, etc.) — your price doesn't change after demo starts.

How It Works — 5 Steps

  1. Step 1 — Free design consultationNetanel and a designer visit your home to measure, photograph, listen to how you use the room, and identify the structural opportunities (load-bearing walls, ceiling height, natural light). Same-week appointments.
  2. Step 2 — 3D render + fixed-price proposalWithin 5 business days you receive a 3D render of the transformed room plus a fixed-price proposal with material specs and timeline. Render revisions included until you're satisfied.
  3. Step 3 — Permits + engineering (if structural)For wall removal or beam installation, we engage a structural engineer (~$1,200, included in fixed price) and pull the LADBS permit. Timeline 2–3 weeks for permit approval.
  4. Step 4 — Build phaseDemo, framing, electrical, drywall, flooring, millwork, paint, and final install. Daily dust containment, floor protection on adjacent rooms, single point of contact.
  5. Step 5 — Reveal walk-through + 12-month warrantyWe walk the transformed room with you, address punch list within 5 days, and hand you a warranty packet covering workmanship + millwork joinery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a living room transformation cost in LA?
Living room transformations in LA range from $18,000 (cosmetic — flooring, paint, lighting) to $85,000 (structural — wall removal, custom built-ins, coffered ceiling). The most common mid-tier scope ($30K–$55K) includes flooring, built-ins, fireplace reface, and recessed lighting.
Do you remove walls between the living room and kitchen?
Yes — open-concept conversions are a frequent NPLD project. Cost depends on whether the wall is load-bearing (requires a structural beam, ~$8K–$15K extra). We engage a structural engineer, pull the LADBS permit, and install the beam as part of the fixed price.
How long does a living room transformation take?
Cosmetic transformations (flooring + paint + lighting) take 2–3 weeks. Mid-tier (adding built-ins + fireplace + millwork) takes 4–6 weeks. Structural projects with wall removal take 6–8 weeks because of permit and engineering timelines.
Will I need to move out during the work?
Most clients stay in the home. We dust-contain the work area, protect adjacent rooms, and run a no-shoes work-area policy. For projects with extended drywall/dust phases we offer a 5-day off-site stay credit in the proposal.
Can you match my existing hardwood floors?
Yes — we sand-match, stain-match, and feather-in new boards to existing engineered or solid hardwood. For discontinued products, we'll source the closest available match and provide a stain sample before install.
Do you build custom built-ins?
Yes — built-in bookshelves, media walls, window-seat benches, and fireplace surrounds are all built in our local millwork shop and finish-installed on site. Material is paint-grade poplar (typical) or stain-grade walnut/white oak (premium).

“The first vet is the CSLB lookup — cslb.ca.gov, search by name or license. Confirm Status='Active', no complaints, classification matches scope (B for general, C-10 electrical, C-36 plumbing). Then check BBB rating, recent reviews, and ask for 3 past project references in the same scope class as yours. We're happy to share references on every project — anyone reluctant to share is hiding something.”

Pro Tip

Living-room "transformations" in LA range $25K (paint + furniture + lighting refresh) to $250K (full architectural redesign with structural changes). The mistake: owners describe scope as "transformation" then get quoted at full-renovation pricing. The fix: itemize what stays vs what changes. Floor stays? Save $15-$25K. Walls stay where they are? Save $10K-$30K (no structural). Lighting only? $3K-$8K. We quote tier-by-tier so owners can pick the level of transformation that fits their budget, not the level the contractor wants to sell.
