Remodeling Company in Davis, CA
When a Davis homeowner asks us what remodeling costs, the first thing we tell them is that a bathroom remodel here usually lands between $9,000 and $28,000, and a kitchen remodel between $14,000 and $45,000. The second thing: Davis homes were built across three distinct eras, and each one behaves differently once the walls come open. Mason Remodeling has handled all of them, and every quote comes as a written price before any work starts. Call (803) 680-2547 for a free estimate, and you’ll know the number before we ever set foot in the house.
Why Davis Homes Are Different
Davis runs on a different clock than the rest of the Sacramento Valley. This is a city that chose to stop growing, to keep its shape compact, and to ask every new development to meet a higher standard. What that means for construction is real: housing stock here is older, often built between the 1950s and the 1980s, and the tighter building envelope means renovations have to be planned more carefully than a typical suburban job.
Whole swaths of town sit inside active neighborhood associations and historic-district overlays, especially around Old East Davis, University Avenue, and the streets off Anderson Road. Any exterior work there can trigger design review before a single permit is pulled. The soil is another factor. Davis sits on Yolo County alluvial loam, which drains unevenly and moves with the season. Foundations are generally sound, but we pay close attention to drainage when planning any addition or garage conversion near a mature tree line.
Summer heat is real. A Davis roof replacement or window replacement has to account for weeks of triple-digit afternoons, which means material choices lean toward reflective membranes and high-efficiency glass. Homes with flat or low-slope roofs are common in the older pockets, and they need different detailing than the pitched-roof construction you see in newer subdivisions east of Pole Line Road.
The permit reality in Davis is straightforward but deliberate. The city reviews plans with a focus on consistency and design compatibility. We handle the permit application, drawings, and the inspection log. The homeowner’s job is to tell us what they want. Ours is to get it through.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Davis Services
Most Davis calls start the same way: someone has a bathroom that no longer works for them, or they’re deciding between reworking their existing floor plan and adding more square footage. These are the three services we handle most in this city.
General Contractor in Davis
The role of a general contractor in Davis is often about sequencing: getting the design approved, pulling permits, coordinating the plumber and electrician, and managing inspections on schedule. We run jobs from the first drawing to the final occupancy sign-off. A Davis kitchen remodel in a 1970s rancher often uncovers aluminum branch wiring, cast-iron drain lines, or a slab foundation that needs core drilling for a new island; we plan for those discoveries so the project doesn’t stall. Learn more on the main page: General Contractor in Davis.
Bathroom Remodeling in Davis
Davis bathrooms are often small, tiled in original mid-century colors, and built around cast-iron tubs that are surprisingly hard to remove cleanly. The work usually includes replacing the shower or tub, updating the vanity, re-tiling, and bringing the ventilation and electrical up to current Yolo County code. We quote these jobs as fixed written prices, not allowances. See typical costs and what a project includes on the main page: Bathroom Remodeling in Davis.
Home Remodeling in Davis
Whole-home remodeling in Davis means different things block by block. In South Davis it’s often a 1970s two-story with a dated kitchen and a closed-off living room. In Central Davis it’s a craftsman with good bones and a long list of small fixes. We coordinate the design, structural work, finishes, and final walkthrough, and free second visits are included if something fails after we finish. For a full breakdown of what’s inside a Davis whole-home project: Home Remodeling in Davis.

Brands We Service in Davis
We work with a tight list of materials and product lines, chosen because they perform in Yolo County conditions and because we can get parts quickly when a repair comes up mid-project. Cambria and Silestone countertops, Kohler fixtures, and GAF roofing products are the most common direct brands we install across Davis. We keep installation schedules tied to product lead times so a special-order countertop doesn’t stall the rest of the job. See our brands for the full list.

Prices in Davis move upward for two reasons: the volume of fixtures and tile square footage needed in older, compartmentalized bathrooms, and the design-review process that can extend exterior work. On every project, you’ll receive a written line-item price before any work begins. That number doesn’t change unless you change the scope.
