Cole Construction: Portola Valley's Remodeler

Experience You Can Build On in Portola Valley

Cole Construction is more than just a contractor — we’re a team that truly knows Portola Valley. We’ve spent nearly two decades working on homes tucked into the hillsides off Alpine Road and down near the Windy Hill Preserve. The truth is, remodeling in Portola Valley is different. You’re dealing with older custom homes, tricky lot slopes, and strict county permitting through San Mateo County. That’s where we come in.

Our team handles everything from full home renovations to kitchen remodels and ADU additions. We’ve worked on properties near the Portola Valley Town Center, up on Los Trancos Road, and right along Portola Road itself. Every project we take on gets the same level of care — whether it’s a small bath remodel or a complete new home build. No fuss, no surprises. Just solid work and clear conversations from start to finish.

Comprehensive Construction and Design Services for Portola Valley

From concept to completion — we bring quality craftsmanship, real communication, and reliable project management to every build in Portola Valley. Here’s what that looks like for homeowners here:

  • Kitchen Remodel in Portola Valley — You’ve probably seen those 1970s kitchens with dark cabinets and laminate counters. We turn them into open, light-filled spaces that actually work for how your family lives. Near the Portola Valley School or up on Alpine Road, we know the layout quirks.
  • Bathroom Remodel in Portola Valley — Let’s be honest: those tiny master baths in mid-century ranch homes need a refresh. We’ve gutted and rebuilt bathrooms throughout the La Entrada area and around Sharon Park, adding walk-in showers and heated floors that make a real difference on foggy Portola Valley mornings.
  • Home Renovation in Portola Valley — Whole-house remodels are our bread and butter. Whether you’re updating a home off Skyline Boulevard or near the Nature Conservancy, we handle every step — from foundation work to finish carpentry.
  • ADU Contractor in Portola Valley — With Portola Valley’s strict lot coverage rules, building an accessory dwelling unit takes someone who knows the county codes. We’ve built ADUs near the Portola Valley Library and along Los Trancos Road that blend right in with the surrounding redwoods.
  • Deck Remodel in Portola Valley — Those old redwood decks? They get slippery in the fog and splinter over time. We replace them with composite or IPE decking that stands up to Portola Valley’s damp winters and dry summers. Perfect for entertaining overlooking the hills near the Town Center.
  • New Home Construction in Portola Valley — If you’re building from scratch on a lot near Whiskey Hill Road or up in the Portola Valley hills, we handle the design-build process from start to finish. We know the seismic requirements and the local design review board inside and out.
