Built for the Way Huntington Park Homes Are Built

Huntington Park was incorporated in 1906 as a streetcar suburb on Henry Huntington's Los Angeles Railway, built for workers at the industries growing southeast of downtown. Pacific Boulevard became the retail center of the southeast county, and it still draws shoppers from well beyond the city. Its housing is older and denser than most of its neighbors'.

More than a quarter of Huntington Park's roughly 15,100 homes were built before 1940, and over half before 1960. Only about 37% are detached houses. About one in five homes is in a duplex, triplex or fourplex, and roughly a third are in larger apartment buildings.

You will see the finished kitchen on screen before any work starts, and the estimate will list cabinets, counters, labor and any repairs separately.

Utilities and Air

What We Sort Out Before Demolition

The practical groundwork for a Huntington Park remodel.

  • Climate. Huntington Park shares ZIP code 90255 with neighboring Walnut Park. It's in Energy Commission climate zone 8, warm in summer and mild in winter. The dense streets and limited shade keep older buildings warm.
  • Ventilation. Where a recirculating hood is the only option, we choose a quality one with a charcoal filter and a light.
  • Dust control. The kitchen is sealed off from the rest of the house with plastic barriers and a protected entry path.

Layout Planning

How to Plan the Layout

The single-family houses that remain, many from the 1910s through the 1930s, often need the most work. Expect knob-and-tube or two-wire circuits, a small service, galvanized supply lines, cast-iron or clay drains, damaged subfloor around the sink and lead paint. We test for lead and asbestos, replace what's needed in the walls we open and price it all up front.

  • Older apartment buildings: Where ducting through an exterior wall is possible, we recommend it.
  • Prewar houses and bungalows: Owner-occupants in these houses often want to keep some period character, such as a built-in cabinet, wood windows or tile, and we can design around them.
  • Layout ideas for small kitchens: A single large sink instead of two small bowls.

What Homeowners Say About Our Kitchen Team
