Remodeling Contractor in Sunnyvale
Whole-home transformations — including Eichler-literate work — by the design-build team headquartered right here in Sunnyvale.
Sunnyvale is BARC's home base — our office is on Stewart Drive, our crews are minutes from any lot, and we work the One-Stop Permit Center constantly. That's a real advantage on a whole-home remodel, where dozens of site visits and inspections accumulate.
The housing stock is classic Silicon Valley: 1950s–70s ranches (genuine Eichlers in some tracts) on generous lots, owned increasingly by tech families who want open, modern interiors. Eichlers in particular — radiant slabs, post-and-beam, atrium glazing — demand a remodeler who's worked on them before. We have.
Our design-build model keeps design, permits, and construction in one accountable team, with a fixed bid before demolition and weekly updates throughout.
Remodeling permits in Sunnyvale
Sunnyvale's One-Stop Permit Center (456 W. Olive Ave.) takes online submittals; kitchen/bath remodels clear in 3–6 weeks, whole-home and structural scopes longer. Watch-outs we navigate: single-story combining districts that constrain second stories in some neighborhoods, Eichler-area design considerations, and active energy/reach-code review (which is steering most clients to induction).

Do you remodel Eichler homes in Sunnyvale?+

Can I open up my Sunnyvale ranch floor plan?+
Almost always — wall removal with an engineered beam is our most common Sunnyvale remodel. We handle the structural engineering and the One-Stop Permit Center submittal as part of the job.
Do you do kitchen or bath-only projects?+
Yes — see our dedicated Sunnyvale kitchen remodel and bathroom remodel pages for room-specific costs and process. This page covers whole-home and general remodeling.
Are you really based in Sunnyvale?+
