Kitchen and Bathroom Remodelingacross the Peninsula
Gilberto has spent more than 20 years building homes with his own hands. He prices your remodel, he plans it, and he is on site while his crew builds it. You will never hand your house to a stranger.
20+
Years in residential construction
- Who we are
Two brothers. One crew.Your house.
Gilberto and Abraham Barbosa own Peninsula Kitchen & Bath Builders. Gilberto has worked in residential construction for more than 20 years and has held his own California contractor licence for 10 of them. He walks your house, writes your price, and works alongside the crew until the last piece of trim goes on.
Abraham runs the office. He pulls the permits, books the inspections, and answers the phone. When you call, you reach someone who can make a decision about your job.
No sales rep. No call centre. No rotating crew you have never met.
- What we do
Two rooms.Done properly.
We do not build decks, roofs or additions. We build kitchens and bathrooms. Everything our crew knows sits in those two rooms, which is why we catch the things a general contractor misses.
Kitchen Remodeling
Cabinets, countertops, flooring, lighting, plumbing and electrical. We open the walls when the walls need opening, fix what is behind them, and put the room back the way you drew it.
Bathroom Remodeling
Tile, showers, tubs, vanities, waterproofing and ventilation. We build the part you cannot see correctly, because that is the part that fails in five years and takes the tile with it.
- Why Peninsula
Why Peninsula homeowners choose us
Four reasons, and none of them is a slogan.
The owner is on your job
Most contractors send a salesperson to your kitchen table and a crew you have never met to your house. Gilberto does both jobs. The man who wrote your price is the man holding the level.
We build two rooms, not twenty
Kitchens and bathrooms only. Ten years of licensed work inside the same two rooms means we already know where the plumbing runs in a 1950s Peninsula ranch and what the city will ask for at inspection.
A licence you can look up
Our California contractor licence is number [NUMBER]. Type it into the CSLB website before you call us. Check that it is active, check the bond, check the record. Then check the other bids you are holding.
One price, one schedule, one person to call
You get a written scope before demolition starts and a schedule with real dates on it. If something changes, we price it in writing and you approve it before anyone picks up a tool. No surprises at the end.

Questions homeowners askbefore they call.
Q01 · How much does a kitchen remodel cost on the Peninsula?
[MARKET DATA] Most full kitchen remodels in this area run between [X] and [X], depending on the size of the room and the finishes you choose. Bay Area kitchens generally land somewhere around $250 to $500 per square foot. Gilberto gives you a real number for your kitchen at the estimate visit, not a range.
Q02 · How long will my kitchen be out of action?
[MARKET DATA] A full kitchen remodel usually takes 6 to 12 weeks once demolition starts. A bathroom is shorter. You get a written schedule before we begin so you can plan around it.
Q03 · Do you pull permits?
Yes. Abraham files with your city and books every inspection. Unpermitted work causes problems when you sell the house, and we will not do it.
Q04 · Why is your price higher than the other bid I have?
Low bids usually leave things out. Look at the cheaper quote and check whether it includes permits, electrical upgrades, waterproofing behind the tile, and disposal. Then look at what happens when a change order appears halfway through. We would rather give you the real number at the start.
Q05 · Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. California contractor licence #[NUMBER], bonded and insured. Look it up on the CSLB website before you call us.
Q06 · Can I live in the house during the remodel?
Most homeowners do. We seal off the work area, protect the floors, and clean up at the end of every day.
