Curb Appeal Transformation

Front Facade Remodeling in Tarzana

Transform your home’s first impression with a custom front facade remodel — serving Tarzana, Encino, Woodland Hills, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Calabasas and Hidden Hills.

The front of your home sets the tone for everything behind it. At Master in Design, we specialize in complete front facade transformations that dramatically boost curb appeal while respecting your home’s architectural character. Since 2012, our CSLB-licensed team (#979219) has been turning tired, dated exteriors into the best-looking house on the street across Tarzana and the San Fernando Valley.

A facade remodel can include new siding (cedar, fiber cement, smooth stucco), replacement windows and entry doors, porch or portico additions, modern garage doors, exterior lighting, hardscape updates (walkways, steps, planters), and a fresh exterior paint scheme to tie it all together. We handle design, engineering (if needed), permits, and construction — a true turnkey experience.

The result: a home that looks custom-built, not just repainted. Serving Tarzana, Encino, Woodland Hills, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Calabasas, and Hidden Hills. CSLB #979219 licensed and insured. Free estimates — no pressure, no obligation.

Siding Replacement

Cedar tongue-and-groove, HardiePlank fiber cement, smooth Santa Barbara stucco, or horizontal nickel-gap — we help you pick the right material for your home's style and your maintenance preferences.

Entry Door Upgrade

Custom wood, steel, or fiberglass entry doors with sidelights and transoms. We install premium hardware (Emtek, Baldwin) and can integrate smart locks.

Porch & Portico

Add a covered entry where there was none. Standing-seam metal or asphalt shingle porch roofs with recessed lighting, new concrete or stone steps, and tapered columns or posts.

Window Replacement

From retrofitting individual windows to full facade window replacement — black-framed, bronze, or white. We install Milgard, Andersen, and Jeld-Wen with Low-E glass rated for SoCal sun.

Garage Door Upgrade

Modern flush-panel or carriage-house style garage doors with insulated construction and quiet belt-drive openers. A new garage door can return over 90% on resale.

Exterior Lighting

Integrated facade lighting: recessed porch downlights, wall sconces flanking the entry, landscape uplighting on architectural features, and path lights along the walkway. All LED, all on timers or photocells.

Front Facade FAQs

What Tarzana and San Fernando Valley homeowners ask before starting a facade remodel.

Do I need a permit for a facade remodel?
It depends on the scope. Paint-only: no permit needed. Replacing siding like-for-like: typically no permit. Adding a porch, changing window sizes, or altering the structural facade: yes, a building permit is required. We handle the permit process for you — drawings, submittal, and inspections included.
How much does a front facade remodel cost?
Facade remodels in Tarzana vary widely based on scope. A paint + trim + entry door refresh might run $15,000–$35,000. A full siding + windows + porch addition can range from $60,000–$150,000+. We provide a detailed, line-item estimate after our free walkthrough.
How long does a facade remodel take?
A paint-and-door refresh: 1–2 weeks. A full siding-and-window facade: 4–8 weeks, depending on permit turnaround and material lead times. We'll give you a detailed timeline at contract — and we stick to it.
What architectural styles do you work with?
We've done everything from mid-century modern ranches, Spanish Revival, Traditional, and Contemporary across Tarzana and the Valley. Our design approach is to enhance what's already there — not force a style that doesn't fit the home or the neighborhood.
Can you match existing materials?
Yes. If you're only remodeling part of the facade (say, adding a porch to an existing elevation), we match stucco texture, siding profile, paint color, and trim style so the new work blends seamlessly with the old. No "add-on" look.
