ADU Company in Yorba Linda, CA
Kitchen remodeling in Yorba Linda almost always happens inside a home that was built between 1960 and 1990, on a lot big enough to hold horses, an RV, or a detached garage. That means we’re rarely doing a cosmetic update in a tight condo. We’re rebuilding kitchens inside ranch homes and two-story semi-customs where the original footprint is generous but the layout, wiring, and ventilation were never designed for how people cook and gather now. Foundry ADU Builders handles the full kitchen scope, and we’re also the contractor Yorba Linda homeowners call when they want an ADU built from the ground up. Call (866) 251-7857 to talk through your project.
Why Yorba Linda Homes Are Different
Yorba Linda sits in the Santa Ana Canyon wind corridor, and that single fact changes how we approach every interior and exterior job. Summers run hot and dry, with Santa Ana events that push dust and embers against structures along the wildland edges. On hillside parcels in the 92887 ZIP, grading and drainage dictate where anything gets built, and the same slope that gives you a view also means a detached ADU has to work around retaining walls and fire-access sightlines. The housing stock is overwhelmingly 1960s through 1990s custom and semi-custom ranch homes and two-stories, many with horse facilities, RV pads, and detached garages or shops. That’s good news for ADU placements and garage conversions. It’s less good for the original kitchens and bathrooms, which tend to be closed-off, under-ventilated, and running on electrical panels that were sized decades before anyone imagined a second dwelling in the backyard. We plan for that.
The equestrian character of Yorba Linda also means setbacks and placement are rarely as simple as “put the unit in the back corner.” On a lot with a corral, a tack room, and a driveway that has to keep working for horse trailers, the first question is where the animals, vehicles, and drainage already flow. The ADU or the kitchen addition gets designed around that reality, not dropped on top of it. Foundry ADU Builders has served Yorba Linda since 2018, and we’ve learned to read a site plan the way a local does.
Our Main Yorba Linda Services
Two calls come in more than any others from Yorba Linda homeowners: one about building an ADU, and one about bringing a tired bathroom up to the standard of the rest of the property. Here’s what each involves here.
ADU Builders in Yorba Linda
Most Yorba Linda ADU work is detached new construction or a garage conversion, and on the larger lots that dominate 92886 and 92887, we’re often placing a unit where a barn, shop, or RV pad already exists. Santa Ana wind exposure and hillside drainage factor into nearly every design decision, from eave detailing to where the unit sits relative to fire access. We work across prefab, modular, and site-built methods so the structure matches the lot, not the other way around. Foundry handles everything from permit drawings to finished interiors, including kitchens and baths inside the unit. ADU Builders in Yorba Linda
Bathroom Remodeling in Yorba Linda
Bathrooms in 1960s through 1990s Yorba Linda homes tend to be compact, with original tile, single-sink vanities, and ventilation that was never adequate for the inland heat. On hillside parcels, we also see moisture and settling issues that show up first in bathroom walls and floors. We gut, re-plumb, re-vent, and rebuild with layouts that work for multigenerational households or a rental unit. When the bathroom is inside a new ADU, the same crew handles it from rough-in to trim.

Kitchen Remodeling in Yorba Linda
A Yorba Linda kitchen remodel usually means opening a closed-off 1970s or 1980s layout inside a ranch or two-story home, upgrading an electrical panel that can no longer support modern appliances, and adding ventilation that actually moves hot inland air out of the house. On hillside lots in 92887, we also deal with the reality that original floor framing near exterior walls has often shifted, so cabinet and counter installs need leveling work before tile goes in. Foundry handles the structural, electrical, plumbing, and finish work under one contract, and our kitchen work carries directly into the interior build-out of any ADU we construct. For a broader look at how we approach kitchens, see Kitchen Remodeling.

Your kitchen still has the original cabinet boxes, soffits, and fluorescent lighting, and every appliance is competing for the same two circuits.
What it costs in Yorba Linda
A full kitchen gut and rebuild in Yorba Linda typically runs from $45,000 to $90,000 depending on layout changes, panel upgrades, and finish selections.
How we do it
We demo to studs, move plumbing and electrical as needed, rebuild walls and soffits, install cabinets and counters, and finish with flooring, lighting, and appliances.
ADU Kitchen Build-Out
Signs you need it
You’re building or converting an ADU and the unit’s kitchen has to be compact, code-compliant, and durable enough for tenants or aging parents.

What Yorba Linda Customers Say
"Unit came out great and the tenant is happy. The timeline ran long, largely because of how slow the city was on plan check, though a couple of the delays were scheduling on their end."
— Holly Reed"Sound insulation between the unit and the main house is better than I expected. You genuinely cannot hear the tenant."
— Shannon Gallagher"Knew the local setback and parking rules cold, which saved us from designing something that would never have been approved."
— Marisol Delgado
