High-End Home Remodeling for Malibu’s Most Beautiful Properties

Most of our clients in Malibu aren’t looking for a “contractor.”

They’re looking for a team they can trust to handle everything—design, planning, construction—without constant oversight, and without things getting off track.

They want clear communication, strong execution, and a finished home that reflects a certain level of quality.

That’s exactly how we approach our work at Kol & Co.

For over 15 years, we’ve managed remodeling projects where expectations are high and details matter. We keep the process structured, the decisions intentional, and the build quality consistent from beginning to end.

Whether it’s a full renovation, a rebuild, or a targeted upgrade, we focus on delivering work that speaks for itself—without overcomplicating the experience for you.

If you’re planning a remodel in Malibu and want it handled the right way from the start, we’re available for a private consultation. Call Us Today!

Remodeling in Malibu Comes with a Different Set of Priorities

Malibu homes are unique—not just in design, but in what they require behind the scenes.

Between coastal exposure, hillside conditions, strict permitting, and increasing wildfire concerns, remodeling here demands a higher level of planning and execution.

We regularly work with homeowners who are:

  • Rebuilding or renovating after fire damage
  • Upgrading older homes to meet modern standards
  • Improving layout, flow, and indoor-outdoor living
  • Investing in long-term durability and property value

 

The goal isn’t just to make a home look better. It’s to make sure it’s built to perform, last, and feel right for how you live today.

A Design-Build Process That Keeps Everything Aligned

One of the biggest frustrations homeowners face is disconnect—between designers, contractors, and reality.

Our design-build approach solves that.

Everything is handled under one roof:

  • Architectural planning and design
  • Material selection and budgeting
  • Construction and project management

This allows us to:

  • Maintain control over quality
  • Avoid costly miscommunication
  • Keep timelines and budgets realistic

You’re not chasing updates or coordinating multiple teams. You have a single, experienced team responsible for the entire process.

Our Remodeling & Construction Services in Malibu

We take on projects where planning, coordination, and execution matter. Each service is handled through our design-build approach, so everything stays aligned from concept through construction.

Kitchen Remodeling

A well-designed kitchen should feel effortless to use and natural to gather in—especially in a Malibu home where entertaining and indoor-outdoor flow matter.

What’s typically included:

  • Space planning and layout redesign
  • Custom cabinetry and storage solutions
  • Appliance integration and ventilation planning
  • Lighting design (task, ambient, accent)
  • Premium material selection (stone, tile, finishes)
  • Plumbing and electrical upgrades
  • Structural adjustments when opening up spaces

Costs: Most kitchen remodels fall in the range of $40,000 – $70,000+, with timelines around 6–10 weeks depending on complexity. Costs vary based on cabinetry, appliances, layout changes, and material selections.

Bathroom Remodeling

Bathrooms in Malibu are moving toward more refined, spa-like environments—without sacrificing durability or practicality.

What’s typically included:

  • Layout improvements for better flow and usability
  • Walk-in showers, wet rooms, and custom glass enclosures
  • Soaking tubs and integrated features
  • High-quality tile and waterproofing systems
  • Custom vanities and storage
  • Lighting and ventilation upgrades
  • Plumbing reconfiguration when needed

We pay close attention to the details that don’t show—proper waterproofing, drainage, and material performance—because that’s what ensures the space holds up over time.

Costs: Bathroom projects typically range from $25,000 – $40,000+ and take approximately 3–5 weeks. This includes tile work, waterproofing, plumbing upgrades, and custom finishes.

Whole Home Renovations

For many Malibu homeowners, the goal isn’t to update one room—it’s to make the entire home feel cohesive, functional, and aligned with how they live today.

What’s typically included:

  • Full layout reconfiguration and space planning
  • Structural modifications (removing/adding walls, opening views)
  • Kitchen and bathroom remodeling integration
  • Flooring, finishes, and material continuity throughout
  • Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC upgrades
  • Window and door replacement (including large openings)
  • Smart home and energy-efficient improvements

We approach whole home renovations with a long-term view—making sure every decision supports both design and performance.

Costs: Full home remodeling projects generally start around $200,000 and can exceed $500,000+, with timelines of 4–8 months. These projects often include layout reconfiguration, multiple rooms, system upgrades, and structural work.

ADU Construction (Accessory Dwelling Units)

ADUs have become a practical and valuable addition for Malibu properties—whether for guests, extended family, or long-term flexibility.

What’s typically included:

  • Feasibility assessment and zoning considerations
  • Architectural design and planning
  • Detached or attached unit construction
  • Kitchenettes and full bathroom build-outs
  • Utility connections (water, sewer, electrical)
  • Permitting and code compliance

We design ADUs to feel like complete, independent spaces—not secondary structures.

Costs: ADU projects typically range from $200,000 – $500,000+ and take approximately 10–12 months, including design and permitting.

High-End New Home Construction

Building a new home in Malibu requires careful coordination from the very beginning—site conditions, regulations, and long-term performance all play a role.

What’s typically included:

  • Site evaluation and pre-construction planning
  • Architectural coordination and design development
  • Structural engineering and hillside considerations
  • Full construction from foundation to finish
  • Material sourcing and specification
  • Project management and timeline coordination
  • Final detailing and completion

We stay involved from early planning through final delivery to ensure the home is built with consistency and intent—not pieced together.

Costs: New construction in Malibu generally ranges from $400 – $600+ per square foot, with an overall timeline of around 18 months, including planning and approvals.

What Impacts Cost the Most

In Malibu, a few factors consistently influence pricing:

  • Level of design detail and customization
  • Structural modifications and engineering
  • Site access and terrain (especially hillside properties)
  • Material selection and sourcing
  • Permitting and regulatory requirements

We guide you through these decisions early, so there are no surprises later in the process.
