Built For Here

Made For Pacific Palisades Kitchens

Pacific Palisades kitchen remodeling faces conditions an inland kitchen never will. Consequently, a design that looks perfect in a showroom needs real adaptation for a coastal Palisades home before it performs the same way at yours.

Coastal Air And SaltOcean air corrodes cheap hardware and swells the wrong cabinetry. We specify finishes and fittings proven to hold up a block from the water.
Ranch Era HomesMuch of the Palisades was built from the 1940s through the 1970s. Older wiring, galvanized lines and tired layouts are common, and we plan for them from the start.
Hillside StructureMany Palisades homes sit on slopes, and opening a kitchen to the living room can mean engineered beams and footing work. We design with the structure in mind.
Indoor Outdoor FlowPalisades living blurs the line between kitchen and patio. We plan openings, sight lines and flooring transitions that connect the two.
Family Scale KitchensPalisades kitchens tend to be larger and busier. Islands, double ovens and walk in pantries need real space planning, not just bigger cabinets.
Hillside AccessSteep streets, tight driveways and crane windows all need planning in the Palisades hills. We handle logistics so deliveries and crews arrive on schedule.

Building rules, permit requirements and HOA processes vary by property and are updated periodically. We confirm the current requirements for your specific building during your free consultation.

What Fails First

Plumbing, Electrical And Ventilation, Done Properly

Almost every kitchen we are called to repair failed for the same reasons. Water went where it should not have gone, or the electrical work was never built for modern appliances. Neither failure shows up in week one. Both show up eventually, and good Pacific Palisades kitchen remodeling fixes what is behind the walls before it beautifies what is in front of them.

So we build from the infrastructure up. Supply lines, shutoffs and drain connections get replaced before cabinets go in. Panels and circuits get sized for real appliance loads, and waterproofing goes down under every sink and dishwasher location before finish surfaces.

  • Plumbing replacement and rerouting done to code, with proper shutoffs and leak protection you can actually access.
  • Dedicated circuits and panel capacity planned for your appliance package, not guessed at mid project.
  • Waterproofing and backing at sinks, dishwashers and wet walls, so a slow leak never becomes a cabinet replacement.
  • Permits and engineering handled for structural changes, wall removals, electrical work and any hillside footing questions.
  • Dust and debris control managed for family homes, with daily cleanup and a protected work zone.

Why Us

Why Pacific Palisades Homeowners Choose Maya

Plenty of companies will swap your cabinets. Here is what makes Pacific Palisades kitchen remodeling from a licensed, women led design build studio different from hiring a handyman with a tile saw.

01

Women Led, Design First

A boutique studio where design and build live under one roof, so your vision survives from the first sketch to the final reveal.

02

We Are Licensed To Build

Wall removal, electrical and plumbing need permits and engineering. As a licensed general contractor, we handle that rather than working around it.

03

Hillside And Coastal Experience

Sloped lots, coastal air, ranch era framing and Palisades permit processes are second nature to us because Palisades homes are our regular work.

04

Transparent Pricing And Timelines

Detailed scopes and realistic schedules before demolition day. As a result, you always know where the project stands and what comes next.

05

Permit And Code Expertise

We handle the paperwork, inspections and city requirements for you, including Pacific Palisades permit and design review processes.

06

Craftsmanship That Lasts

Vetted trades, premium materials and a punch list obsession on every project. In addition, license #1034501 with full insurance on every job.

Before You Start

Questions Worth Answering First

Kitchens go wrong when they are designed around photos rather than around how you actually cook and live. These six questions keep your Pacific Palisades kitchen remodeling project honest. We work through all of them with you at no cost.

How do you really cook?

Weeknight dinners for two and monthly dinner parties call for very different layouts. Design for the everyday thing, not the rare one.

Is that wall load bearing?

The wall between your kitchen and living room often carries the building above it. Knowing early decides whether your open concept is a simple job or an engineered one.

How does the kitchen connect outside?

Palisades living flows to the patio. Planning the openings, flooring and sight lines early is what makes indoor outdoor living actually work.

Can your panel handle it?

Modern appliances and lighting need real electrical capacity. Older Palisades homes often need a panel upgrade before the fun parts start.

How do crews and cabinets get in?

Steep driveways, tight turns and delivery windows all need planning in the hills. Logistics handled early keeps your schedule and your neighbors happy.

What is your real number?

Tell us the budget you actually have, not the one you think we want to hear. Then we phase it sensibly if needed, instead of overreaching and stopping halfway.
