Remodeling San Francisco homes, the right way
San Francisco homes carry more history per square foot than almost anywhere in California: Victorians and Edwardians in Noe Valley and the Mission, sunset-and-fog cottages out in the Avenues, flats in Bernal Heights and Pacific Heights where every inch is spoken for. Remodeling here means respecting what a house already is — the bay windows, the moldings, the tall ceilings — while making it live the way you actually need it to.
Genesis Home Remodeling works across the city as a full-service general contractor — design, San Francisco DBI permits, and construction under one contract, with a single point of contact. We're headquartered on the Peninsula in Burlingame, so a crew is a short drive from your door, not commuting across the region. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation and a clear scope and schedule before any work begins.
What San Francisco homeowners bring us
Remodeling Victorians and Edwardians with care
The city's period homes reward a contractor who's worked in them before. We update kitchens, bathrooms, and layouts while keeping the casings, rooflines, and character that make these houses worth owning.
Making tight city footprints live large
Not every SF home can grow outward. We reclaim wasted space — closets, hallways, awkward corners — and reconfigure floor plans so the same footprint simply works better.
Permits and older systems, handled
Homes built before 1950 often hide knob-and-tube wiring and galvanized plumbing that should be replaced while walls are open. We coordinate the structural, electrical, and plumbing work and carry SF DBI permits through final sign-off.
Featured project
South San Francisco Master Bathroom
Just south of the city: a statement master bathroom — restored clawfoot tub, bold patterned wallpaper, and a shower that doubles as a full steam room.

Do you handle permits with San Francisco DBI?
Yes. We prepare and submit plans, manage plan check and corrections with the Department of Building Inspection, and coordinate inspections through final sign-off as part of every project.
Can you remodel an older SF home without losing its character?
That's our specialty. We keep or restore period details — casings, built-ins, bay windows, moldings — while updating systems, layouts, kitchens, and bathrooms to modern standards.
