Remodeling 1960s and 70s Homes in Tempe, AZ

Kitchens, bathrooms and commercial spaces, start to finish — Tempe, Maricopa County.

Tempe has been landlocked since the 1990s, so there is no new subdivision coming to solve the problem of an outdated kitchen or a cramped bathroom — the only way most people here get a better house is to remodel the one they already have. A lot of that stock is the ranch-style block homes built through the 1960s and 70s in neighborhoods like McClintock and South Tempe, with layouts and fixtures original to the decade they went up in. We take those kitchens, bathrooms and full interiors down to what is worth keeping and rebuild from there — cabinets, tiled shower pans, plank flooring — plus the same work for commercial spaces that need a fit-out.

Remodeling in Tempe

An older Tempe house rarely remodels clean — a kitchen job usually turns up plumbing or wiring from a decade before the one the cabinets are from. We walk the space in person before writing an estimate, so what gets found is priced as a possibility, not billed as a surprise halfway through.

ASU keeps thousands of rentals turning over every summer — make-ready work is a season, not an occasional job (paint, patches, floors, deep cleaning in a two-week window)
Landlocked and fully built since the 1990s, so remodeling existing 1960s–70s ranch stock is the only way to get a better house here
Small commercial spaces along the light rail change tenants often, and every change means drywall, paint and floors
Backyards are small and hard-used, so owners invest in turf and low-water hardscape that survives both heat and parties

Questions about remodeling in Tempe

Is it better to remodel or move, with a house this old?

In a landlocked city like Tempe, moving up usually means a similar-aged house somewhere else — remodeling what you already own is often the more direct way to get the kitchen or bathroom you actually want.

What do you usually find behind the walls in these houses?

Plumbing and wiring from an earlier decade than the fixtures suggest, most often. We flag it before it gets closed back up, not after.
