ADU Company in Bloomington, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Bloomington usually means working inside a mid-century ranch or stucco home where the original footprint hasn’t changed in fifty years and the wall between the kitchen and living room is doing more harm than good. We handle the full range: structural wall removal, cabinet replacement, countertop upgrades, appliance layout changes, and everything down to the finish trim. Bloomington’s housing stock – mostly single-story homes built between 1950 and 1980 – brings predictable conditions: outdated electrical, cast-iron plumbing, and layouts that were never designed for how families cook today. To talk through your kitchen, call Orchard ADU Builders at (844) 386-2399.
Why Bloomington Homes Are Different
Bloomington sits in unincorporated San Bernardino County, which means the address on your mailbox doesn’t tell the whole story. The permit counter is the county’s, not a city’s, and that changes how remodels and ADUs get approved. Many of the lots out here are generous – quarter-acre and larger – with detached garages, old sheds, and sometimes informal second units that were never permitted. When we open a kitchen wall or add a backyard ADU, we’re often the first contractor to look at what’s actually behind the stucco since the Reagan administration.
The heat matters too. Bloomington summers routinely push past 100 degrees, and the Santa Ana winds in the fall bring dry, gusty conditions that make fire-resistant materials and defensible space around detached structures a real part of the conversation. For a kitchen remodel, that means ductwork, insulation, and window placement have to work harder than they would in a coastal city. For an ADU, it means James Hardie fiber-cement exteriors are the default recommendation, not an upsell.
Our Main Bloomington Services
Most Bloomington homeowners reach out to us for one of two reasons: they want to add a legal rental unit or family suite in the backyard, or they want to bring a dated bathroom into this decade. Both jobs are heavily shaped by the county permitting process and the age of the existing home.
ADU Builders in Bloomington
Bloomington’s large lots and older detached garages make it one of the more practical places in the Inland Empire for an accessory dwelling unit. We build across prefab platforms – Abodu, Cover, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, and Plant Prefab – plus traditional site-built and Tuff Shed conversions, so the unit matches your lot, your budget, and the county’s requirements. Many Bloomington properties have unpermitted existing structures that need to be reconciled with San Bernardino County before a new ADU can be signed off, and that’s work we handle as part of the build. Read the full breakdown on our ADU Builders in Bloomington page.
Bathroom Remodeling in Bloomington
Mid-century bathrooms in Bloomington tend to be small, with original cast-iron tubs, limited ventilation, and tile that’s been holding on since the Nixon years. We open these spaces up, rework the plumbing, and replace moisture-compromised drywall while coordinating with the same San Bernardino County permit process we use on ADUs. Whether the bathroom is in the main house or inside a new backyard unit, the materials and methods are the same. See what’s involved on our Bathroom Remodeling in Bloomington page.

Kitchen Remodeling in Bloomington
Most kitchens in Bloomington were built before open-concept layouts existed, with a small footprint, a wall separating the kitchen from the living area, and cabinets that are original to the house. Remodeling one of these kitchens means more than swapping countertops – it’s about correcting decades of deferred maintenance while bringing the room up to what a modern family actually needs. The heat and Santa Ana conditions here make ventilation and insulation choices matter more than they would in a milder climate, and the county permit process means the work has to be done right the first time. If you’re weighing options, start with our Kitchen Remodeling overview.
Full Cabinet Replacement
Signs you need it
Cabinet doors that no longer close square, drawer slides that have given out, water damage around the sink base, or layouts that waste a corner on a dead cabinet.
What it costs in Bloomington
A full cabinet replacement in a Bloomington kitchen typically runs $12,000 to $30,000 depending on cabinet quality, linear footage, and whether the new boxes are stock, semi-custom, or fully custom.
How we do it
We measure the full run, check the floor and wall for level and square, remove the old boxes, correct any framing or drywall issues, install new cabinets with shims and screws – not nails – and finish with trim and hardware.
Countertop and Backsplash Upgrade
Signs you need it
Laminated counters that are delaminating at the edges, burned or stained surfaces, outdated tile, or a counter that sits lower than standard because of an old cabinet height.
What it costs in Bloomington
A kitchen countertop and backsplash replacement in Bloomington usually falls between $4,000 and $9,000 including slab or quartz fabrication, edge profiles, and installation.
How we do it
We template the new tops on-site, coordinate the slab or quartz fabrication, prep the base cabinets and plumbing, set the countertop with the right support, and install the backsplash after the counter is in place.
What Kitchen Remodeling Costs in Bloomington
| Item | Typical range in Bloomington |
|---|---|
| Full cabinet replacement | $12,000 – $30,000 |
| Countertop and backsplash upgrade | $4,000 – $9,000 |
| Kitchen layout reconfiguration (wall or peninsula) | $8,000 – $20,000 |
Can you remodel my Bloomington kitchen without moving the plumbing?
Often yes. If the sink stays in the same general location and the drain line is in decent shape, we can work around the existing plumbing. Moving a sink across the room is possible but adds real cost and opens the floor. Call (844) 386-2399 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Bloomington?
Most full kitchen remodels here run 4 to 8 weeks, depending on whether we’re moving walls, how long the county takes on permits, and how much of the original framing and electrical is still sound. Countertop-only jobs are usually 1 to 2 weeks. We’ll give you a schedule with the estimate.
Brands We Service in Bloomington
We work across the ADU platforms you’ve likely already researched – Abodu and Cover for fast, design-driven prefab, and Tuff Shed for a budget-accessible conversion. Exteriors get James Hardie fiber-cement where it makes sense, and parts are sourced through our regional suppliers. See the full list on our brands page.

FAQs About ADU Company in Bloomington
For kitchen remodels and ADUs, the county permit timeline usually sets the pace. Once permits are approved, we can typically start within 2 to 4 weeks depending on material lead times and crew availability. Call (844) 386-2399 and we’ll give you a realistic start date, not a best-case guess.
Yes. Bloomington is unincorporated, so San Bernardino County is the permitting authority for ADUs, structural changes, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work on kitchen and bathroom remodels. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and stay on the job until final sign-off.
Yes. Running the ADU build and a kitchen or bathroom remodel under one company means one permit coordination effort and one schedule. We’ve done this on several Bloomington lots where the main house needed work and the backyard had room for a new unit. Call us to talk through sequencing and budget.
