***  TZ Remodels  ***  San Diego, CA  *** -    Kitchens, Bathrooms & more with education and experience
Welcome! 
 
The goal of TZ Remodels is to not only to design, build, or remodel, but to make the process as easy as possible by dealing with one person who is knowledgeable and experienced in a wide variety of project types. TZ Remodels is operated by a working contractor and civil engineering graduate with a range of experience to complete your project efficiently and effectively.  TZ Remodels, Inc performs a project start to finish and along the way makes suggestions to ensure that it is done the way that works best for the owners.
 
A licensed contractor since 2001, TZ Remodels has completed numerous remodels in San Diego County including a two story addition project single-handedly from design to construction and final inspection. Too often, the person holding the contractors' license is sitting in an office while the inexperienced are working on your project.  I set myself apart by having a college education, a strong construction background, and being courteous, friendly, and professional.  I care about what I am doing, am respectful and cognizant of working in someone's home, and am more affordable than the other guys.
 
As a kitchen and bath contractor, I have experience with a wide range of products from manufacturers including the following:
Ikea kitchens, Kohler, American Standard, Dal Tile, KraftMaid, Grohe, Jenn Air, GE Monogram, Electrolux, Viking, Thermdor, Miele, Asko, Broan, Frigidaire, LG, Whirlpool, Dacor, Bosch, Five Star, Amana, DCS, Fisher Paykel, Franke, Elkay, Blanco, Kindred, KWC, Moen, and more.
 
Let's discuss your project!  Allow me the opportunity to come take a look at what you would like to accomplish and offer my input.   Call me 7 days a week at 619-228-5528 to set up an appointment or just send me an email at tim@tzremodels.com 
 
As you can probably tell, I am not a website designer, but what I do excel at is home remodeling, whether it be kitchen or bathroom or another type of project.
 
My favorite type of projects are kitchen remodels, bathroom remodeling,  tile installation such as tile backsplash, and home remodeling like room additions.  The transformation from an outdated 30 year old kitchen or bathroom to a brand new room is job satisfaction.
Remodeling bathroom ideas and general remodeling ideas usually are initiated from customers who have a general idea of what they want.  I can add to your project with some thoughts from past design experience.
