Mountain View

Mountain View's Hometown Remodeling & Fine Woodworking Team

Michael Meyer Construction + Fine Woodworking has been based in Mountain View for over 35 years, which means your project isn’t a drive-in job for us — it’s our own neighborhood. From the craftsman bungalows near Old Mountain View to the ranch homes off Cuesta Drive, we know the housing stock, the inspectors, and the city’s permitting quirks better than almost anyone.

The Advantage of a Contractor Who's Actually From Here

Being headquartered in Mountain View means faster site visits, a shop and team just minutes away, and three decades of relationships with the city’s building and planning departments. When a permit question comes up mid-project, we’re not waiting on hold — we know who to call.

Kitchens, Additions, and ADUs for Mountain View Homes

Mountain View’s mix of 1950s ranch homes, updated bungalows, and newer infill construction means every remodel is different. We handle kitchen and bathroom renovations, second-story and rear additions on tighter urban lots, and ADUs — increasingly popular here given the city’s push for more housing density.

Working With Mountain View's Older Housing Stock

Many homes near Old Mountain View, Rex Manor, and Wagon Wheel were built in the 1940s–60s on modest footprints. We specialize in opening up choppy original floor plans, replacing dated cabinetry with custom millwork, and adding square footage without overwhelming the lot or clashing with the neighborhood’s scale.

Yes. Since our shop is based here, an initial walkthrough usually happens within days, not weeks.

Yes, we regularly design and build ADUs under the city's current ordinance and handle the permitting from start to finish.

Most Mountain View kitchen remodels run 10–14 weeks from demolition to final walkthrough, depending on whether structural walls or the electrical panel need to change.

Yes, though tighter lots there often call for a more compact footprint and careful setback planning, which we work through with the city during design.

That's your call — we can replicate original trim and cabinetry from homes in Rex Manor and Wagon Wheel, or replace it entirely with new custom millwork, depending on the look you want.

It depends on your lot size and goals: an ADU adds a separate living space and is popular given the city's density incentives, while an addition expands the main house itself — we'll walk through both during your consultation.
