Master in Design has been transforming homes across the San Fernando Valley since 2012. We are a licensed general contractor (CSLB #979219) based in Tarzana, California, specializing in full-service residential remodeling — from concept and permitting through construction and finish carpentry. Unlike firms that subcontract every trade to the lowest bidder, we maintain a core crew of in-house craftsmen supported by a vetted network of electricians, plumbers, and structural engineers we have worked alongside for over a decade.

Homeowners in Tarzana, Encino, Woodland Hills, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Calabasas, and Hidden Hills choose us because we deliver one thing that is surprisingly rare in remodeling: a single point of accountability. When you call with a question, the person who answers knows your project, your timeline, and your budget. No call centers. No runaround.

What We Build

We handle every room in the home, at any scale — from a single-bathroom refresh to a whole-home gut renovation:

Kitchen Remodeling — Custom cabinetry, island fabrication, countertop installation (quartz, granite, porcelain), appliance integration, plumbing and electrical reconfiguration, lighting design, and backsplash tile work.

Bathroom Remodeling — Full gut or cosmetic update. Shower pans, waterproofing systems (Schluter-Kerdi), freestanding tubs, custom vanities, niche framing, heated flooring, and ventilation upgrades that meet California Title 24 energy code.

Room Additions — Ground-up ADUs, primary suite expansions, second-story additions, and bump-outs. We handle architectural plans, structural engineering, foundation work, roofing tie-ins, and HVAC extension.

Whole-Home Remodeling — Complete interior transformations. Walls moved, ceilings raised, floors leveled, electrical panels upgraded, plumbing re-piped.

General Remodeling — Flooring, drywall, painting, trim carpentry, door and window replacement, built-in shelving, fireplace refacing, staircase renovation.

Windows & Doors — Retrofit and new-construction replacement. Vinyl, fiberglass, wood-clad, and aluminum. We handle flashing, waterproofing, and trim-out.

Backyard & Outdoor Living — Hardscape, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, patio covers, decking, retaining walls, and landscape lighting.

Why 200+ Homeowners Have Chosen Us

Remodeling is one of the largest investments a homeowner makes, and the contractor you choose determines whether that investment adds value or creates headaches.

Real license, real insurance. CSLB #979219. General liability and workers' compensation coverage active.

Design-build under one roof. You do not need to hire an architect separately, then bid the plans to contractors, then manage the GC, then find an interior designer. Our design-build model puts everything under one roof.

Transparent pricing. We provide detailed line-item estimates, not a single lump-sum number. Change orders are documented in writing before any extra work begins.

We answer the phone. During your project you will have the cell number of your project lead. Calls get returned the same day.
