Remodeling Company in Lexington Hills, CA
Home renovation in Lexington Hills means working with steep lots, older mountain construction, and Santa Cruz County’s stricter building requirements.

If you’re planning a kitchen, bathroom, addition, or full-home remodel in the 95031 ZIP code, call (833) 589-8103 for a free estimate.
Why Lexington Hills Homes Are Different
Lexington Hills is an unincorporated Santa Cruz Mountains community where nearly every construction project sits on a steep, wooded lot reached by narrow, winding private roads. Site access, fire-safe defensible space, and Santa Cruz County grading and permitting rules drive the job before design even starts. We plan for concrete pump trucks and staged material deliveries because full-size trucks often cannot make the turn onto many of these one-lane roads.
The housing stock here is mostly older mountain cabins and custom redwood-and-cedar homes on hillside parcels, often with wood decks, pier-and-post foundations, and additions built over decades. That means our Lexington Hills renovations frequently involve structural retrofits, deck replacement, and rebuilding rather than simple cosmetic updates. Heavy winter rain and high wildfire risk mean we prioritize roof and deck weatherproofing, drainage and erosion control on slopes, and ignition-resistant materials under WUI requirements.

Our Main Lexington Hills Services
Homeowners in Lexington Hills most often call us for two things: full general contracting on complex hillside projects, and complete home remodeling that updates aging mountain homes. Both start with the same conversation about site access, scope, and material choices.
General Contractor in Lexington Hills
As a licensed general contractor, we manage entire Lexington Hills projects from permits to final inspection. That means coordinating grading, foundations, framing, roofing, and finishes under one contract, so you’re not juggling five separate subs on a steep lot with limited staging area. We pull Santa Cruz County permits, schedule inspections, and keep the job moving even when winter weather complicates the site. Learn more about our approach on the General Contractor in Lexington Hills page.
Home Remodeling in Lexington Hills
Remodeling a Lexington Hills home usually means working within an existing hillside footprint, adding structural support where older framing has settled, and choosing materials that hold up to mountain moisture and fire season. We handle kitchens, baths, additions, and whole-home updates with the same team that specs the materials and manages the build. See what a complete remodel looks like on our Home Remodeling in Lexington Hills page.

Home Renovation in Lexington Hills
Home renovation in Lexington Hills is rarely a simple swap of finishes. The older mountain cabins and custom homes here sit on slopes that shift with winter rain, and decades of additions mean the structure underneath often needs attention before new finishes go in. Seaside Contractors handles Home Renovation as a full-scope job: we assess the existing structure, address drainage and moisture issues, then rebuild with materials matched to the climate and fire requirements of the Santa Cruz Mountains.
