San Mateo Apartment Renovation
A complete interior transformation from the studs forward.
This San Mateo apartment renovation brought together kitchen and bathroom remodeling, insulation, drywall, flooring, lighting, electrical updates, and painting across the interior.
Project Overview
Project Type: Apartment Renovation
Location: San Mateo, California
Service: Whole-Home Remodeling
Chendo & Sons opened the apartment interior to the studs before rebuilding and updating the space. The kitchen and bathroom were reconfigured, creating the foundation for a broader renovation throughout the apartment.
The project also included new insulation and drywall, flooring throughout, canless lighting, electrical fixture updates, and complete interior painting.


Opening the Interior for a New Direction
This renovation began by opening the apartment to the studs. With the interior exposed, Chendo & Sons could move forward with the planned reconfiguration of the kitchen and bathroom.
The project then progressed through the installation of new insulation and drywall as the apartment was rebuilt.
Reconfiguring and Remodeling the Kitchen
The kitchen was reconfigured and remodeled as part of the larger apartment renovation.
Chendo & Sons
installed new cabinets and countertops along with new appliances, bringing the major kitchen components together within the updated layout.
Rebuilding the Bathroom
The bathroom was also reconfigured and remodeled during the project. The updated space received a new shower and tub, along with a new vanity and countertop.
These improvements made the bathroom an integral part of the apartment's broader interior transformation.
Installing New Flooring Throughout
New flooring was installed throughout the apartment, extending the renovation beyond the kitchen and bathroom.
Using the project scope as a whole allowed the flooring work to become part of a coordinated interior update rather than an isolated improvement.
Updating Lighting and Electrical Features
New canless lights were installed as part of the apartment renovation.
Chendo & Sonsalso changed the outlets, switches, and cover plates throughout the apartment, incorporating these electrical updates into the wider interior work.
Finishing With Interior Painting
The entire apartment was painted as part of the final scope of improvements.
With the kitchen, bathroom, walls, flooring, lighting, and electrical features updated, painting helped complete the renovated interior.
From the Studs to a Renewed Interior
The San Mateo Apartment Renovation involved much more than updating individual finishes. Opening the apartment to the studs allowed the project to bring reconfiguration, insulation, drywall, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, flooring, lighting, electrical updates, and painting together within one renovation.
Each stage contributed to rebuilding and refreshing the apartment as a connected interior space.
One Renovation. Multiple Areas Working Together.
Projects involving several areas of a property require coordination between different stages of construction. Chendo & Sons approaches broader residential renovations by keeping those individual improvements connected to the overall scope.
From rebuilding interior surfaces to completing kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, and finishing work, the goal is to move each part of the renovation forward as part of one project.
