Remodeling Company in Highgrove, CA
Home renovation in Highgrove, CA means working with a housing stock that largely dates to the mid-20th century, when large lots were the norm and energy codes were nothing like they are today. San Mateo Construction handles whole-home renovation across ZIP 92313, from kitchens and baths to structural upgrades that bring older Highgrove homes up to current seismic and energy standards. If you’re planning a renovation, call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll walk you through what your house actually needs.
Why Highgrove Homes Are Different
Highgrove sits in an unusual spot: it’s an unincorporated Riverside County island surrounded by incorporated San Bernardino County. For homeowners that rarely matters until permit time arrives. A project near the county line can require coordination with both Riverside and San Bernardino building departments, and we’ve learned to plan for that from day one so approvals don’t stall the schedule.
The housing mix here reinforces the need for careful renovation planning. Many homes were built between the 1940s and 1970s on generous lots, with floor plans and electrical panels that predate modern appliances and open-concept living. Newer infill construction sits alongside these older properties, which means no two Highgrove renovation scopes look alike. The hot, dry inland climate adds another layer: intense summer sun and occasional Santa Ana winds accelerate exterior wear on roofing, stucco, and window seals, so renovation planning has to account for what the weather has already done to the envelope of the house. We treat every Highgrove project as a whole-home assessment first, then a renovation plan.
Styles & brands we work with







Our Main Highgrove Services
Most Highgrove homeowners start with one of two needs: a general contractor who can manage a multi-trade project, or a full home remodel that touches multiple rooms and systems. Here’s how each works in Highgrove.
General Contractor in Highgrove
A general contractor in Highgrove earns their fee on jobs that pull together several trades: structural work, electrical, plumbing, finishes, and exterior scopes that can’t be handed off to one specialty crew. Older homes here often hide surprises once walls open, from outdated wiring to framing that no longer meets current code, and having one licensed team means those discoveries get resolved without the homeowner calling six different subs. We coordinate the schedule, the permits, the material orders, and the inspections, and we carry the accountability for the whole job. Read more about how we run these projects: General Contractor in Highgrove.

Home Remodeling in Highgrove
Home remodeling in Highgrove frequently starts with a kitchen or bathroom that hasn’t been touched since the house was built, then expands once homeowners see how much better the space can work. The older housing stock here often has compartmentalized layouts, minimal storage, and plumbing fixtures that waste water and show their age. We remodel with name-brand systems – KraftMaid or Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria or Caesarstone countertops, Kohler or Moen fixtures – and manage demolition, rough-in, and finish as one accountable team.

Home Renovation in Highgrove

Home renovation in Highgrove usually means bringing a mid-century house forward: reworking layouts, replacing worn systems, and upgrading insulation, windows, and mechanicals so the home can handle triple-digit summers without the utility bill to match. The area’s older single-family stock on large lots gives us room to work – additions, ADUs, and garage conversions all fit the lot geometry here – but the climate punishes shortcuts on the exterior envelope. We run renovation projects with one contract covering every trade, from roofline to foundation. If you’re planning home renovation, start with our Home Renovation overview, then call (855) 901-7266 for a walkthrough.

What Highgrove Customers Say
"He was upfront about a soil issue that added cost early rather than absorbing it and surprising us at the end."
— Katie Thompson"Excellent build. Costs came in about six percent over the original contract, driven mostly by material price movement during the build, which he documented each time."
— Brooke Delaney"Weekly site meeting, every week, with a written summary afterward. I always knew where the money and the schedule stood."
— Ramon Vargas
