Homes we remodel in Woodside

Woodside kitchens run from the small galley in a Woodside Glens cabin-site house to the working kitchen of a horse property with a mudroom and a second sink. In the Glens and Emerald Lake Hills the lots are steep and narrow, so the kitchen rarely grows outward; the room comes from opening a non-load-bearing wall or reworking the layout in place. On rural properties the house can sit a long way up a narrow drive, which decides how cabinets and slabs are delivered and where a dumpster can go. Because the town counts drywall stripped from any wall toward its 50% alteration rule, a full kitchen gut is the project most likely to push a house toward fire sprinklers, so we measure before we design. Woodside is on PG&E and WestLight Energy (formerly Peninsula Clean Energy), and a switch to induction in a larger house usually starts with a load calculation.

  • Rural homes and horse properties on one acre and up (Mountain Home Road, Kings Mountain Road, Olive Hill, Portola Road, the hills toward Skyline): Septic systems, long drives from the road, and water from Cal Water, Redwood City or a private well. Adding a bathroom brings in San Mateo County Environmental Health.
  • 1920s–30s cabin-site houses, added onto over the years (Woodside Glens, Emerald Lake Hills): Narrow, steep lots first sold for vacation cabins, many houses spread over two or more lots. The Glens have been on sewer since 1968; the town’s part of Emerald Lake Hills is on septic.
  • Mid-century ranches and 1960s–80s custom homes (Woodside Hills, Woodside Heights, Woodside Knolls and the smaller subdivisions off Cañada and Woodside roads): Single-story or split-level houses with dated original baths and closed kitchens; the most common remodels in town.
  • Large estates (Across town, on the larger parcels): Several bathrooms per house remodeled together, which is where the town’s 50% wall count matters most.

Neighborhoods we work in: Woodside Glens, Town Center, Woodside Hills, Woodside Heights, Woodside Knolls, Woodside Oaks, Emerald Lake Hills, Hidden Valley Farm, Mountain Home, Olive Hill, Kings Mountain, Sky Londa.

Septic, sprinklers and the 50% rule in Woodside

Most of Woodside is on septic; sewer reaches the Town Center, Woodside Glens and parts of the Woodside Hills area through town and county sewer districts. If a remodel adds a bathroom or a bedroom on a septic parcel, the town sends a plan set to San Mateo County Environmental Health, which reviews the system before the permit issues. The town also tracks how much of a house is altered: once removed or replaced walls reach 50% within three years, counting walls stripped to the studs, the whole house needs fire sprinklers, WUI upgrades and driveway work, and at 75% a fire hydrant within 600 drivable feet. We fill in the town’s alteration form during design, so you know where your project lands before anything is demolished.

Permits in Woodside

Town of Woodside Building Division (2955 Woodside Rd, Woodside) issues permits in Woodside. Typical review time: not published by the town; we ask the Building Division for the current queue when we apply. We prepare the drawings, pull the permit under our license and meet the inspector at every visit; the fee is a line item on your estimate.

  • Title 24 energy documentation is required on permitted kitchens; we prepare the forms.
  • On septic parcels, plans that add a bathroom or bedroom go to San Mateo County Environmental Health for review, with its own application and fee, before the permit issues.
  • Every remodel files the town’s Building Alteration Calculation Form. When altered walls reach 50% within three years, the house needs fire sprinklers, WUI upgrades and driveway work; at 75%, a fire hydrant as well.
  • Interior-only work goes to a building permit. Exterior changes are checked by Planning first and can go to staff, the Architectural and Site Review Administrator or the Architectural and Site Review Board (ASRB).
  • Most of Emerald Lake Hills, and all of Kings Mountain and Sky Londa, are unincorporated and permit through San Mateo County Planning & Building, not the town.

WestLight Energy (formerly Peninsula Clean Energy) supplies the power and PG&E delivers it. WestLight's rebates cover heat pump water heaters and heating, with a bonus for a panel upgrade. A large rural house adding induction and a heat-pump water heater usually starts with a load calculation.

Kitchen Remodeling questions from Woodside

Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Woodside?

Almost always. New circuits, a moved sink or any wall removal needs a permit from the Town of Woodside Building Division; in unincorporated Emerald Lake Hills, Kings Mountain or Sky Londa it comes from San Mateo County.

Could my kitchen remodel trigger fire sprinklers?

It can, if the kitchen and any other work within three years add up to 50% of the walls on the town’s alteration form. At 75%, the town also requires a fire hydrant within 600 drivable feet, so we fill in the form during design.

Are there rebates for switching to induction in Woodside?

WestLight Energy (formerly Peninsula Clean Energy) offers a panel-upgrade bonus alongside its heat pump rebates; rebate terms change, so we check them when we plan the electrical work. Programs change, so we check what is open when we write your estimate.

What hours can work happen in Woodside?

The town allows construction from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays, with no work on Sundays or town holidays. Our schedule follows those hours.
