We Know West Seattle Homes — We've Been Remodeling Them for 15 Years

West Seattle feels like a small beach town within a major city. Alki Beach, the Junction commercial district, and a strong neighborhood identity make it one of Seattle most beloved communities. The housing stock is predominantly mid-century: ranch homes, split-levels, and Cape Cod cottages from the 1940s-1960s post-war boom. These homes typically feature original builder-grade kitchens that are 60-80 years old. The West Seattle Bridge closure (2020-2022) created a backlog of deferred remodeling projects now being addressed.

We know West Seattle well — from the mid-century ranch homes to the split-level, we've worked on them all. With homes in West Seattle averaging $750,000, homeowners here typically invest 10-15% of their home's value in a kitchen remodel — which means most projects fall between $75,000 and $113,000. Bathroom remodels typically run about half that range.

Our crews have worked in neighborhoods across West Seattle — from Alki, The Junction, Admiral to Fauntleroy, Morgan Junction, Delridge and everywhere in between. We understand the quirks of 55-year-old homes in this area: the plumbing situations, the electrical panels, the load-bearing walls. That local knowledge saves you time, money, and surprises during your remodel.
