Whole-house renovations, room additions, open floor plan conversions, and structural modifications managed by a single licensed team.

Some projects do not fit neatly into one category. Opening up a wall between the kitchen and living room, adding a bedroom over the garage, converting a patio into conditioned living space, or renovating a home purchased at auction all require a general contractor who can coordinate multiple trades. Eco Grizzly acts as your single point of contact for design, permitting, demolition, framing, MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing), and finish work.

Whole-House Renovation

Gut renovations strip a home to the studs and rebuild it from the inside out. This approach lets us update wiring, plumbing, insulation, and HVAC while redesigning the floor plan. Whole-house renovations are common for older homes in Pasadena, the Valley, and the Westside where the structure is solid but the interiors are decades out of date.

Room Additions and Conversions

Adding square footage is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase home value. We build room additions over garages, extend living areas into backyards, and convert unused spaces like attics and basements into bedrooms, offices, or media rooms. Every addition includes foundation, framing, roofing, and finish work.

Structural Modifications

Opening up walls, installing steel beams, raising ceilings, and adding skylights all require structural engineering and city permits. We work with licensed structural engineers, pull all permits, and ensure every modification meets current California building code including seismic requirements.

Room Addition Built

Southern California

This addition project expanded the home's living space with a fully permitted room addition. The work included concrete foundation, wood framing, roof tie-in, electrical and plumbing rough-in, insulation, drywall, paint, and exterior stucco to match the existing home. The end result blends with the original structure while adding significant square footage.

Leak Repair and Mold Remediation

Southern California

A persistent roof leak caused water damage and mold growth in the ceiling and wall cavity. Our team identified and repaired the leak source, removed all affected drywall and insulation, treated the framing with antimicrobial solution, and rebuilt the area with new materials. Final paint and texture match the surrounding surfaces so the repair is invisible.

Attic Insulation Removal and Installation

Southern California

The existing attic insulation had settled and degraded over time, leaving large areas with minimal thermal protection. Our crew removed all old insulation down to the ceiling joists, cleaned the attic space, sealed air leaks around penetrations, and installed new blown-in insulation to current energy code requirements. The homeowner saw an immediate improvement in indoor comfort and lower utility bills.
