San Diego Design & Remodeling is full service design & build general contractor. From complete kitchen and bathroom remodels to entire home renovations, SDD&R is here to help make your remodeling dreams a reality. We understand that building customers for life is not done overnight. We will guide you from our initial design meeting to final project completion with our unique process that includes enhanced communication, organization, professionalism and accountability. We've remodeling hundreds of homes throughout San Diego and look forward to having the opportunity to work with you.
"Over the last two years we have enjoyed the kitchen and bathroom remodeling work and room addition that SDD&R did for us in the summer of 2016. Our family room has become our main place to hang out and the remodeled kitchen and new family room have been the center of a number of family gatherings and celebrations. Jeremy and Eric were great to work with on this project. They encouraged us to remove a kitchen wall to open it to the dining room and we are so happy we did. They also worked with us to resolve some issues we had with the original house design (i.e., replaced water lines that were in the slab with new lines through the attic, upgraded the electric circuits to the kitchen, included a raised slab for our room addition to address a grade problem in our back yard). With our initial input, they prepared suggested designs and layouts for our kitchen and bathroom remodels, and then we worked with them to revise these to exactly what we wanted in the finished product. Once these designs were finalized, they provided us with firm costs for the project, which were very competitive and a great value. They also provided us with several references at which we checked out the work that they had been done. Based on these references, we believed that Jeremy and Eric could deliver the finished product, and we liked the designs and costs, so we proceeded to contract with them. They directed us to a separate design company to prepare the drawings for the room addition. They provided us a list of what products we needed to pick out (e.g., plumbing fixtures, paint colors, tile, lighting, ceiling fans, kitchen and bathroom accessories) and a schedule for when they would need them. Also, they utilized a number of sub-contractors (e.g., tile, roof, framing, stucco, countertops, cabinets, painting) that provided great finished products. They also coordinated with several other contractors that we decided to use for flooring, asbestos removal, windows, HVAC, and Solatube installation. As in every project of this scope, there were some issues to deal with along the way, but they were quickly resolved. SDD&R gutted the kitchen and bathrooms to the studs rather than cutting and patching the drywall. We believe this made for a better finish and also allowed us to have them reinforce many of the areas in the bathrooms where we wanted to install towel racks and grab bars. The cabinets and quartz countertops we got through them are of superior quality and these were used in the kitchen and bathrooms and hallway and laundry cabinets. They even installed a cabinet in the hallway location that formerly housed our whole house heater, which we had just previously moved to the attic. This work took from the beginning of June through mid-September to complete, which was pretty close to the schedule they had provided us. They used progress payments through the duration of the project and these were based upon specific activities that had been completed. This worked out well for us. Overall, this was a project that was well run and had a quality result and we would highly recommend SDD&R to others to check out for their remodeling projects."

Guest house building services FAQs
In most states, yes—you can build a guest house, but every city or county sets its own zoning rules and building codes. Before breaking ground, check local ordinances, confirm lot setbacks, and secure the right permits. A local contractor or design-build firm can walk you through the paperwork and site requirements so your project starts on solid legal footing.
Yes—homeowners often tap a few different financing tools. A home-equity line of credit (HELOC) lets you borrow against your equity as you need funds. If you prefer a lump sum tied directly to the project, a short-term construction loan can roll into a second mortgage once the build is complete. Cash-out refinancing is another option: you replace your current mortgage with a larger one and use the difference to cover construction costs.
When you build a guest house, you’re creating a separate structure for hosting visitors without the full amenities needed for permanent living. An accessory dwelling unit, however, includes a complete kitchen and bathroom, meeting building codes for a long-term residence. This key difference makes an ADU ideal for long-term occupancy or rental income, adding enduring value to your property.
How many rooms you need depends on how you plan to use the space. Aim for one bedroom per every one or two occupants to make sure everyone has enough privacy and comfort. Added living and dining areas give you extra functionality, especially for rental use or long-term stays.
Most homeowners pick somewhere between 600 and 1,500 square feet to fit all the essentials. Make sure your design supports one to two occupants per bedroom and includes enough common areas for comfortable daily living. A well-proportioned layout boosts both functionality and property value.
No—a guest house isn’t just a bump-out on your main home. A bump-out is a small extension within an existing room for extra seating or storage. In contrast, you build a guest house as a standalone building with its own foundation and amenities, giving you a fully separate living area that can boost your property’s versatility and value.
