Our Clients
Don't Just Take Our Word For It...
I had a wonderful experience working with Ben, Tom, and team on a recent bathroom remodel, and was really pleased with the quality of work. They were incredibly responsive, professional, and communicative, and offered design guidance and rationale for any decisions that needed to be made along the way. And I’m really happy with my new bathroom!
Sunny S. from Hollywood Hills, CA
I contacted Bela Development to get a quote, and from the first site visit through completion of the project, Bela Development were a pleasure to deal with and the work exceeded my expectations. I had tried for months to get a “handy man” over to fix it, but they would either fail to return my calls or they would not show up for a scheduled appointment. I highly recommend Bela Development.
Devon D. from Los Angeles, CA
I’m so happy with the work quality and professionalism of Ben and Ron with Bela. After contacting Bela over the weekend, they were here on Monday to provide an estimate, got to work two days later, and the work was completed by Friday! Not only that, the project managers came by multiple times to make sure I was happy with the work.
- Bryan E. from Venice, CA
Great experience with Bela Development. Ben was very professional and courteous. We met with Ben and explained that we needed shower doors and installation. He described a few different solutions and styles and we decided on frameless shower doors with barn style hardware. The work was done on time and the result was excellent.
- Anita S. from Venice, CA
Easy to work with, patient, knowledgeable and great with communication. He (Yossi) kept us updated every step of the way and always made himself available to address our questions or concerns. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the end result and helped us stay within budget while still accommodating our vision.
- Harika K. from Venice, CA
Beautiful work, the workers wore masks and put down plastic on my floors where they walked on. I did make some changes in the middle of the project and they did it with no problems. I absolutely love my bathroom and highly recommend them! They’re not cheap but also not the most expensive. I’m really glad I went with them!!!
- Beverly R. from Venice, CA
We talked to several different contractors, looking for someone who took the time to listen to our needs, had a good communication style, strong attention to detail, and a reasonable price. Bela Development topped the list in all three. We’re really happy with our new bathroom and would recommend Bela to anyone looking for a contractor!
- Robb K. from Culver City, CA
We met with a lot of different contractors to discuss our garage-to-office conversion but ultimately chose Bela Development. From start to finish, they were very responsive and handled any speed bump exactly the way you’d want to. The crew worked fast, effectively and respectfully. We will call again, as soon as it is time for our next project.

2023 costs for home remodeling in Los Angeles
$100-400 per square foot
If your home isn’t keeping up with your lifestyle aspirations, then it may be time for a partial or whole home remodel. The home remodel cost is based on many factors including the size of the home, how many areas you’re remodeling, and the depth of the remodel. The cost to remodel a home in Los Angeles is between $100 and $400 per square foot. It’s difficult to calculate exactly how much your home remodel is going to cost without getting an estimate from a licensed home remodeling contractor.
The most expensive parts of a home remodel are the bathroom and the kitchen, with components like cabinets and structural changes taking the lion’s share of budget. You’ll want to include elements like flooring, windows, landscape, HVAC, and plumbing into your pricing estimate. Lastly, if you’re hiring a contractor to do the remodel, you’ll want to calculate labor charges as well. Smaller home remodels like updating a closet or painting a bedroom can cost in the low thousands working with a tight budget.
$40,000 – $70,000
The kitchen remodel cost in Los Angeles is in the range of $40-70k, depending on the appliances, countertops, structural changes, cabinets, and labor. In a full kitchen remodel, the cabinets, countertops, and appliances will be replaced, so include the cost of material and labor into your price estimate. Accessory items in a kitchen remodel include flooring, lighting, and wallpaper.
The larger the kitchen, the more material like flooring, countertops, and cabinets you’ll need as well as an increased labor charge. Many home renovations include structural changes that require changes to the water, electrical, and gas in order to accommodate the new design. If you want a more open look, that may require removing or adding load bearing walls. Let’s talk about the most expensive material in a home remodel, the cabinets. On the low end, you can go with pre-fabricated cabinets, and on the high end you can have custom cabinets manufactured specifically for your kitchen’s dimensions. Pre-fabricated cabinets in Los Angeles cost around $250 while custom cabinets can run in the thousands.
$15,000 – $60,000
If you spend a lot of time in the bathroom you might want to increase its aesthetics, functionality, and the value it puts into your home. The bathroom remodel cost in Los Angeles ranges from $15,000 to $60,000. A bathroom remodel can be broken down into two components; aesthetic changes like adding a solid-surface vanity, retiling the floor, or changing the cabinets, and structural changes like plumbing, electrical work, or adding space.
Many Los Angeles homeowners are interested in having more open space with separate baths and shower stalls, which may require structural changes. On a square footage basis, a bathroom remodel will cost from $150 per square foot all the way up to $275. Common aesthetic features include the countertops, cabinets, flooring, shower, and vanity. To get the most accurate bathroom remodel cost, speak to a licensed remodeling contractor.
$70,000-$130,000
A garage conversion in Los Angeles will typically cost between $70,000 and $130,000, depending on the size of the garage. New California ADU regulations allow homeowners to take more liberty in their garage conversions and even rent out the units to tenants. A licensed contractor can give you the most accurate estimate for all of the price factors including labor, materials, structural changes, and permits.
Other types of garage remodels like full and partial remodels won’t turn a garage into a liveable unit, but they can add smaller features and cost much less. If you want to turn a garage into a liveable unit, you’ll need to factor in adding insulation, updating the roofing, adding heating/cooling, and adding gas lines. In Los Angeles, you’ll need to include licensed labor in your cost estimate. That labor can include plumbing, flooring, carpentry, roofing, and insulation. Most general contractors can handle all of these things.
