The kitchen is the heart of your home - the place where meals are prepared, families gather, and memories are made. A well-designed kitchen remodel does more than update the look of the room; it transforms how your household functions every single day. At ACE Design & Build, we create kitchens that are as beautiful as they are practical, combining custom cabinetry, premium countertops, professional-grade appliances, and intelligent layouts that make cooking and entertaining effortless.
Open-concept kitchen designs have become the most requested layout in Los Angeles, and for good reason. Removing walls between the kitchen and adjacent living or dining areas creates a sense of spaciousness, improves natural light, and allows the cook to stay connected with family and guests. Our structural engineers evaluate load-bearing walls and design solutions - such as steel beams and reinforced headers - that open up your floor plan safely and beautifully.
Custom cabinetry is the centerpiece of any kitchen remodel, and our partnerships with top cabinet manufacturers give you access to an extraordinary range of styles, finishes, and storage solutions. From soft-close drawers and pull-out pantry systems to custom range hoods and integrated appliance panels, every detail is tailored to your preferences and daily routine. We pair cabinetry with countertop materials such as quartz, granite, marble, and butcher block to create surfaces that are both stunning and resilient.
Kitchen remodeling consistently delivers one of the highest returns on investment of any home improvement project - typically around 60 percent or more in the Los Angeles market. Beyond financial returns, a new kitchen elevates your daily quality of life and makes your home a place you are proud to share with family and friends.

What Our Clients Say
“We gutted our 1970s kitchen and ACE turned it into something out of Architectural Digest. The custom white oak cabinetry, quartzite counters, and the hidden pantry they designed are absolutely stunning. What impressed us most was how they handled the structural beam removal for our open-concept layout - flawless engineering.”
“From the first 3D rendering to the final walk-through, ACE made our kitchen remodel stress-free. They finished two days ahead of schedule, which never happens in LA. Our new kitchen has become the heart of every dinner party.”
“ACE helped us maximize every inch of our small galley kitchen. The pull-out pantry, corner carousel, and under-cabinet lighting they suggested were game changers. We cook in here every night now instead of ordering takeout.”
“We interviewed four contractors before choosing ACE for our kitchen remodel. Best decision we made. Their attention to the tile work alone - the herringbone marble backsplash is perfectly aligned on every corner. You can tell they take pride in the details.”
“Our kitchen went from dark and cramped to bright, open, and modern. ACE handled the permits, the structural changes, the plumbing relocation - everything. The Thermador appliance package they sourced saved us thousands compared to retail pricing.”
