Construction in Hollywood, FL
Kitchen remodeling in Hollywood typically runs $14,000 to $45,000 for a full renovation, with small kitchens starting around $9,000. The price moves with what’s behind the walls: homes built between 1920 and 1940 hide plaster over wood lath, knob-and-tube wiring remnants, and framing that’s settled unevenly over a century. We’re Rowan Construction Group, and we put every Hollywood estimate in writing before anyone picks up a tool. Call (470) 298-9650 when you’re ready to see the number.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood’s housing stock splits into two distinct job types, and the work plan changes depending on which side of Franklin Avenue you’re on. The flats below Hollywood Boulevard hold dense rows of 1920s and 1930s Craftsman bungalows and Spanish Colonial Revival cottages. Many sit within historic survey areas, so exterior changes like window replacement or roofline alterations trigger preservation review that doesn’t exist in neighboring Plantation or Miramar. The hills above, through streets like Beachwood Canyon and Outpost Drive, present a different problem entirely: narrow switchback roads that standard delivery trucks can’t climb, hillside lots needing engineered retaining systems, and CAL FIRE’s Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone designation that mandates ember-resistant vents and Class A roofing on any major addition. We plan logistics around what the street will actually accept.
Our Main Hollywood Services
Two jobs generate most of the calls we take from Hollywood homeowners: fence work, driven by privacy and pool-code needs on tight lots, and driveway or paver work, driven by sun-baked concrete and drainage problems on older slabs.
Fence Installation in Hollywood
Hollywood’s older neighborhoods have property lines that jog in odd ways, especially on corner lots and flag lots common south of Hollywood Boulevard. A fence job here often starts with a survey check rather than a post-hole dig. We quote Fence Installation in Hollywood with the same written-price rule we apply to every Rowan project: flat number, written scope, no surprises when the crew arrives.

Driveway & Pavers in Hollywood
Driveways in Hollywood’s 1920s and 1930s neighborhoods were poured for Model Ts, not three-car households. Cracked slabs, sunken sections, and drainage that sends water toward the foundation are common findings. Driveway & Pavers in Hollywood work includes pulling the old pour, regrading, and laying pavers or concrete on a compacted base rated for South Florida’s rainy season.

Before
AfterKitchen Remodeling in Hollywood


A full Kitchen Remodeling in Hollywood costs $14,000 to $45,000, and the spread is driven by what we find when the old cabinets come down. Pre-war homes in the flats often have plaster walls that crumble at the anchor points, floors that slope half an inch over ten feet, and electrical panels that predate modern code. We write those findings into the quote before the saw comes out, so the number on page one is the number you pay.
In the hills, the kitchen job gets more complicated. WUI Chapter 7A doesn’t usually reach interior work, but hillside homes often have post-and-pier foundations that shift, meaning cabinet runs need shimming and leveling that flatland slab homes don’t require.
Full Kitchen Remodeling
Signs you need it
The layout no longer works for how you cook: no landing space beside the range, one outlet above the counter, drawers that bind, and cabinet boxes pulling away from plaster walls that were never flat to begin with.
What it costs in Hollywood
A complete kitchen remodel in Hollywood runs $14,000 to $45,000 depending on cabinet line, countertop material, and how much the existing framing needs correcting.
How we do it
We measure the room, open a section of wall to check what’s behind the plaster, write a flat scope with the price, and only start demolition after you’ve signed the line-item quote.
Cabinets & Countertops
Signs you need it
Cabinet boxes are water-swollen at the sink base, drawer slides are failing, or the countertop has hairline cracks radiating from the cooktop cutout.
What it costs in Hollywood
Cabinet installation runs $4,000 to $13,000 and countertop installation runs $2,000 to $6,500, with brands like KraftMaid and Cambria quoted at line-item prices rather than markups.
How we do it
We template the existing footprint, level the base cabinets on shims against Hollywood’s settled floors, and set the stone or quartz on a continuous support rail so the seam stays tight.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Signs you need it
The original 4-inch tile splash is cracked, grout is missing, and water has been finding its way behind the lower cabinets.
What it costs in Hollywood
Backsplash installation in Hollywood runs $800 to $2,500 for a standard run, with the price moving on tile selection and how much wall repair the old plaster needs first.
How we do it
We strip the old splash, skim the plaster flat, and set the new tile on a waterproof membrane rated for the humidity that builds up in Hollywood’s older kitchens during the summer months.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Signs you need it
The room has three doorways or a chimney breast that limits the cabinet run, and you need CAD drawings to test layouts before committing to a cabinet order.
What it costs in Hollywood
Design and layout work is included in any full kitchen remodel quote from Rowan, with the final flat price reflecting the cabinet count, not the hours spent redrawing.
How we do it
We measure in person, draw the room in CAD with true dimensions rather than builder-plan assumptions, and present a layout where every drawer and door swing clears in a Hollywood bungalow’s tight footprint.
What Kitchen Remodeling Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Full kitchen remodel | $14,000 - $45,000 |
| Small kitchen remodel | $9,000 - $20,000 |
| Cabinet installation | $4,000 - $13,000 |
| Countertop installation | $2,000 - $6,500 |
| Kitchen island installation | $3,000 - $10,000 |
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Hollywood?
Most Hollywood kitchen remodels run three to six weeks from demolition to final walkthrough. Historic-planning review, when triggered, adds one to three weeks before we can start. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written timeline with your estimate.
Will my Hollywood kitchen remodel require a permit?
Any kitchen job that moves plumbing, electrical, or load-bearing framing requires a permit in Hollywood. We pull permits and schedule inspections as part of the flat written price, so there’s no change order after the fact. Call (470) 298-9650 for specifics on your project.
Bathroom Remodeling in Hollywood


A full Bathroom Remodeling in Hollywood runs $9,000 to $28,000, with small bathrooms starting around $5,000. Pre-war bungalows have bathrooms that were often carved out of a former porch or hallway, so the floor joists underneath are spliced, the subfloor is layered with decades of patched tile, and the plumbing stack may be original cast iron. We open the floor, photograph the framing, and write the real scope before we quote.
Hillside homes add another layer: floor deflection means shower pans and tile membranes need a reinforced substrate rather than a standard mortar bed.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
Signs you need it
The shower surround is soft at the lower courses, the floor tile has lifted at the edges, or the vanity has swollen past the point where refacing makes sense.
What it costs in Hollywood
A full bathroom remodel in Hollywood runs $9,000 to $28,000, with the range driven by whether the studs and subfloor need rebuilding once we open the space.
How we do it
We strip to the framing, repair or sister the joists, set a new waterproof membrane, and only then start tile and fixtures, with a photo record at each inspection point.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Signs you need it
The existing shower pan is leaking into the floor assembly below, which we typically find as a water stain on the ceiling underneath a Hollywood bungalow’s upstairs bath.
What it costs in Hollywood
Walk-in shower installation runs $4,500 to $12,000 in Hollywood, and a full shower replacement runs $3,000 to $8,500 depending on whether the surrounding walls stay or go.
How we do it
We build the pan on a sloped mud bed with a code-rated liner, run the membrane up the walls, and flood-test the shower for 24 hours before a single tile is set.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Signs you need it
The cast-iron tub is chipped, stained, or impossible to climb into safely, and you want a zero-threshold shower in its place.
What it costs in Hollywood
A tub-to-shower conversion in Hollywood runs $3,500 to $10,000, with the price shaped by whether the existing drain location works or we need to move the waste line.
How we do it
We cut the tub out, relocate the drain to center the new shower floor, rebuild the subfloor if it’s rotted, and set a waterproof system designed for curbless entry.
What Bathroom Remodeling Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Full bathroom remodel | $9,000 - $28,000 |
| Small bathroom remodel | $5,000 - $12,000 |
| Walk-in shower installation | $4,500 - $12,000 |
| Tub-to-shower conversion | $3,500 - $10,000 |
| Bathroom vanity installation | $800 - $3,000 |
How long does a bathroom remodel take in Hollywood?
A bathroom remodel in Hollywood usually runs two to four weeks. If we find rotted framing or need to move a plumbing stack in a pre-war home, the timeline extends and we document the change with a signed change order before proceeding. Call (470) 298-9650 for a project-specific schedule.
Does Hollywood require permits for a bathroom remodel?
Yes, any work that opens walls to move plumbing or electrical, or replaces a shower pan, triggers a permit in Hollywood. We handle the permit, the inspection, and the sign-off, all included in your written quote. Call (470) 298-9650 for details.
Roofing in Hollywood


Roofing in Hollywood means matching two different worlds. Flatland homes wear asphalt shingle or flat tile roofs that the summer sun bakes until granular loss shows in the gutters. Hillside homes in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone need Class A assemblies, ember-resistant vents, and materials that meet Chapter 7A, which changes both the material list and the permit path. A roof replacement in Hollywood runs $8,000 to $20,000 depending on what’s under the existing layers.
We always cut a test square to count shingle layers and check the deck sheathing before we price, because a pre-war Hollywood roof often hides two or three layers on top of original 1x skip sheathing.
Roof Repair
Signs you need it
You’re finding shingle granules in the gutter, a ceiling stain after a hard rain, or daylight visible through the attic on a sunny afternoon.
What it costs in Hollywood
Roof repair in Hollywood runs $400 to $1,800, with the final price written after we get on the roof and document the failed flashing or cracked tile.
How we do it
We photograph the damage, write a repair scope with the flat price, and only then send a crew up, with the same warranty language as a full replacement.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Signs you need it
The roof is over 20 years old, the shingles are curling at the eaves, or the deck sheathing sags between rafters when you walk the ridge.
What it costs in Hollywood
A full roof replacement in Hollywood runs $8,000 to $20,000, with material choice (GAF asphalt, standing seam metal, or concrete tile) being the largest driver.
How we do it
We strip to the deck, inspect and replace damaged sheathing, lay a code-rated underlayment, and install the new system with the manufacturer’s full warranty paperwork handed to you at the end.
Metal Roofing
Signs you need it
You’re in a hillside fire zone where Class A material is required, or you want a roof that will outlast the next three owners of the house.
What it costs in Hollywood
Metal roof installation in Hollywood runs $15,000 to $40,000, with standing seam panels priced higher than exposed-fastener systems.
How we do it
We check the rafter spacing and deck condition first, because old Hollywood framing often needs additional purlins before a metal panel system will sit flat and handle the wind uplift loads.
What Roofing Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Roof replacement | $8,000 - $20,000 |
| Roof repair | $400 - $1,800 |
| Metal roof installation | $15,000 - $40,000 |
| Tile roof repair | $600 - $2,500 |
Does Hollywood enforce Chapter 7A fire code on roof replacements?
Yes, for homes in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone in the Hollywood Hills, any substantial roof work must meet Class A covering and ember-resistant vent requirements. Flatland Hollywood homes are generally exempt. Call (470) 298-9650 to verify your zone before quoting.
How many layers of shingles can stay on a Hollywood roof?
California building code allows up to two layers of shingles, but many Hollywood homes we inspect have three or more from decades of re-roofing over skip sheathing. We document what we find and quote accordingly. Call (470) 298-9650 to schedule a written roof assessment.
Windows & Doors in Hollywood


Windows & Doors in Hollywood is rarely a straight swap. Pre-war bungalows have window openings that were framed for sash-weight pockets, and the rough openings are often out of square by half an inch or more. South Florida’s hurricane code now governs impact glazing in Hollywood, so replacement work typically means impact-rated assemblies, which run $8,000 to $25,000 for a whole-home window package and $4,500 to $15,000 for a standard window replacement.
We measure every opening individually, because in a 1920s Hollywood cottage, no two windows are exactly the same size even when they look identical from the street.
Window Replacement
Signs you need it
The sashes rattle in the wind, the glass fogs between panes, or the original single-glazed windows let the summer heat pour through.
What it costs in Hollywood
Window replacement in Hollywood runs $4,500 to $15,000 depending on how many openings and whether impact glass is required for the elevation.
How we do it
We measure each rough opening individually, order units sized for the actual framing rather than the original sash, and install with flashed flanges and foam-sealed perimeters to stop air leakage.
Impact Windows & Doors
Signs you need it
Your insurer is requiring hurricane protection, the existing windows are single-pane, or you want to quiet the street noise that rolls through Hollywood’s older neighborhoods.
What it costs in Hollywood
Impact window installation in Hollywood runs $8,000 to $25,000, with the largest variable being whether all openings or just street-facing elevations need rated glass.
How we do it
We verify the product’s Florida Product Approval number before ordering, install to the manufacturer’s noa (notice of acceptance) requirements, and provide the documentation your insurer needs.
What Windows & Doors Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Impact window installation | $8,000 - $25,000 |
| Window replacement | $4,500 - $15,000 |
Do I need impact windows in Hollywood?
If your home is within the wind-borne debris region, which includes most of Hollywood, new window openings must use impact-rated glazing or provide permanent shutters. We verify the requirement on your specific elevation during the written estimate. Call (470) 298-9650 to schedule a measure.
Will new windows fix my Hollywood bungalow’s draft?
In most 1920s and 1930s Hollywood homes, the draft comes from both the window units and the uninsulated wall cavities behind the trim. We seal the perimeter during install and can quote wall insulation at the same time. Call (470) 298-9650 for details.
Home Additions & ADU in Hollywood

A Home Additions & ADU in Hollywood runs $45,000 to $130,000 for a conventional addition and $90,000 to $220,000 for a detached ADU, and the price is set by two factors: what the soils report says and what the street will allow. Hillside lots need caissons or engineered fill before concrete is ever poured, and narrow canyon roads like those off Outpost Drive restrict delivery vehicles, which means material handling gets priced as a real line item rather than a soft allowance.
In the flats, ADU work often starts with a survey review to confirm whether the original 1920s lot even has the legal clearances for a detached unit under Hollywood’s zoning.
ADU Design & Permitting
Signs you need it
You have an underused garage, a wide side yard, or a rear lot with alley access, and you want a documented path from concept to building permit.
What it costs in Hollywood
Full ADU construction in Hollywood runs $90,000 to $220,000, with the lower number assuming a simple garage conversion and the upper number covering a detached unit with new utility runs.
How we do it
We engage a soils engineer where the hillside condition triggers it, draw the plans to Hollywood’s current zoning, pull the permits, and build to the documented scope without a single verbal change order.
Garage Conversion ADU
Signs you need it
The garage hasn’t held a car in years, the slab is cracking, and the structure sits at grade with enough ceiling height to meet ADU minimums.
What it costs in Hollywood
A garage conversion ADU in Hollywood runs $30,000 to $80,000, with the price changing on whether the slab needs cutting for plumbing and whether the electrical service needs a panel upgrade.
How we do it
We check the existing slab elevation and framing, quote the retrofit scope in writing, and build the conversion with new insulation, a separate electrical sub-panel, and a documented fire separation from the main house.
What Home Additions & ADU Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Home addition | $45,000 - $130,000 |
| ADU construction | $90,000 - $220,000 |
| Garage conversion | $30,000 - $80,000 |
Does a Hollywood hillside ADU require soils engineering?
Most hillside ADU projects in Hollywood trigger a soils report as part of the permit review, and the report often drives the foundation design and cost. We quote that work as a line item once the report is back. Call (470) 298-9650 to discuss your lot.
Can I build an ADU on a flag lot in Hollywood?
Flag lots are common in parts of Hollywood and often have non-standard setbacks and access easements that affect whether an ADU can fit. We review the title and survey before quoting so you’re not paying for plans that won’t pass. Call (470) 298-9650 for a lot review.
