Frequently Asked Questions
What is design-build remodeling, and how does it work in Burlingame?
Design-build remodeling is an integrated delivery model where one team handles every phase of your project — concept, design, architectural plans, permits, and construction — under a single contract. For Burlingame homeowners, this means one point of accountability from your first consultation through final walkthrough. There is no hand-off between a separate architect and a separate contractor, which is where most remodeling projects run into delays, miscommunication, and cost overruns.
Do I need permits for a remodel in Burlingame, and does MHR handle that process?
Yes — most structural, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work in Burlingame requires permits through the City of Burlingame Community Development Department. This includes kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, home additions, and ADU conversions. Mission Home Remodeling manages the entire permitting process as part of our design-build scope. We prepare and submit the plans, coordinate with the city, and handle any responses or revisions required before construction begins.
How is a design-build firm different from hiring a general contractor in Burlingame?
A traditional general contractor builds from plans someone else created. If the design is flawed, over budget, or non-compliant with local codes, that becomes your problem to resolve — often at additional cost. A design-build firm like Mission Home Remodeling creates the plans and builds from them. Because our design and construction teams work together from day one, the drawings are built around what can actually be permitted and constructed in Burlingame. The result is fewer surprises, tighter timelines, and a more cohesive finished project.
What types of remodeling projects does Mission Home Remodeling handle in Burlingame?
We handle the full range of residential remodeling in Burlingame, including kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, full home remodels, home additions, ADU conversions, garage conversions, basement remodels, and new construction. We also provide architectural plans and interior design services as part of the design-build process. If your project involves structural changes, layout reconfiguration, or an addition to your footprint, that is exactly the type of work we are built for.
What should I expect during the design phase of a remodeling project in Burlingame?
The design phase begins with a detailed consultation to understand how you use your home, what is not working, and what you want the finished project to accomplish. From there, our design team develops floor plans, elevations, and material selections tailored to your home and the Peninsula’s architectural context. We incorporate Burlingame’s setback requirements, zoning regulations, and building standards into the design from the start — so what we draw is what can be built and permitted without costly revisions.
How long does a design-build remodel typically take in Burlingame?
Timeline depends on project scope. A kitchen or bathroom remodel typically runs 8 to 14 weeks from permit approval through final inspection. A home addition or full home remodel generally runs 4 to 9 months depending on complexity, structural scope, and permit processing time through the City of Burlingame. We provide a detailed project schedule before construction begins so you know exactly what to expect at each phase. Permit timelines in San Mateo County are generally more predictable than San Francisco, which is an advantage for Peninsula projects.
Does Mission Home Remodeling work on older homes in Burlingame?
Yes — and much of the work we do in Burlingame involves homes built between the 1940s and 1970s. Older homes in this area often require updated electrical panels, replumbing, seismic reinforcement, and structural assessment before remodeling work can begin. Our team identifies these issues during the design and planning phase so they are scoped and budgeted accurately from the start, rather than discovered mid-construction. We handle all of this as part of our integrated design-build process.
Can a design-build remodel in Burlingame add an ADU or second unit to my property?
Yes. Many Burlingame properties are well-suited for accessory dwelling units, whether through a garage conversion, basement conversion, or a new detached structure. We handle the full ADU process — feasibility review, design, architectural plans, permit submission to the City of Burlingame, and construction. Burlingame has adopted state ADU laws that have significantly expanded what is permissible on single-family lots, and we stay current on local interpretation of those rules.
Why should Burlingame homeowners choose a design-build firm over working with a separate architect and contractor?
When you hire a separate architect and a separate contractor, you become the project manager. If the plans are unclear, if something cannot be built as drawn, or if the budget does not align with the design, you are in the middle of that conversation. With a design-build firm, those conversations happen within one team — before construction starts. For homeowners in Burlingame who are managing busy careers and families, not having to coordinate between two separate professionals is a meaningful advantage. It also reduces the risk of gaps in accountability when issues arise.
Is Mission Home Remodeling a licensed general contractor serving Burlingame?
Yes. Mission Home Remodeling is a licensed California General Contractor serving Burlingame and the broader San Mateo County Peninsula, including Hillsborough, San Mateo, Belmont, and Millbrae. We carry the appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding required to pull permits and perform structural remodeling work in Burlingame. Our team operates as a fully integrated design-build firm, meaning we manage every phase of your project — design, permitting, and construction — under one licensed entity.
