Kitchen Remodel in Encinitas

Planning a kitchen remodel in Encinitas? Encinitas takes in five communities (Old Encinitas, New Encinitas, Leucadia, Cardiff, and Olivenhain) with everything from beach cottages to rural-feeling lots. Proactive Edge Developments is a CSLB-licensed San Diego County general contractor. We remodel kitchens end to end, handle the City of Encinitas permit process, and include a free 3D rendering so you see the result before we start.

Permits for a kitchen remodel in Encinitas

Encinitas publishes an ADU and JADU Guide and runs a Permit-Ready ADU (PRADU) program with pre-approved plans. Source: City of Encinitas, ADU and JADU Guide (PLN-118).

Coastal Zone: parts of Encinitas are inside the California Coastal Zone. Projects there can need a coastal development permit on top of the building permit, which adds review time. We check your parcel before design starts.

We prepare the plan set, submit it, answer plan-check corrections, and schedule every inspection through final sign-off.

Featured project: the Curlew St lot split

At 3680–3682 Curlew St in San Diego, we added a second story to the main house and converted the garage into a separate unit. The owner now has two rentable addresses on one lot. It's the project we point Encinitas homeowners to first, because it shows our permitting, structural, and finish work in one place.
