We believe a renovation should feel less like construction and more like a homecoming. Every Silver Homes project begins with how a room should feel at 8am with coffee, and at 8pm with the lights low. Then we build to that feeling, honestly and on schedule.

What we do

One studio, from first sketch to final styling.

  1. 01

    Kitchens & Baths

    The rooms that decide how a home feels. We rework the layout, the light, and the materials so they work as beautifully as they photograph.

  2. 02

    Whole-Home Renovation

    A single, calm plan for the entire house. One team, one schedule, one point of contact from drawings to the final walkthrough.

  3. 03

    Additions & Reconfigurations

    More room to live, without losing the character of the home. Thoughtful additions, opened plans, and light where there was none.

  4. 04

    Design Direction & Styling

    Palettes, materials, fixtures, and the finishing details. We can lead the visual direction or work alongside your designer.

How we work

A calm process, start to finish.

No surprises, no chaos on site. Just a clear path and a studio that answers the phone.

01

Conversation

We walk the home, listen to how you live, and talk honestly about scope, timeline, and budget before anything is promised.

02

Design direction

Layouts, materials, and a clear visual direction you can see and feel, with a fixed scope and a real schedule.

03

Build

One careful crew, a clean site, and weekly updates with photos so you always know exactly where things stand.

04

The reveal

A final styling, professional before-and-after photography, and a home that is ready to be lived in from day one.

The studio

Woman-owned, East Bay to the core.

Silver Homes & Co began with a simple conviction, that renovation should be a calm, considered craft rather than a stressful one. After years managing residential renovations across the East Bay, I started the studio to do it the way I always believed it should be done.

We are small by choice. That means the person who walks your home is the person who sees it through, and that every project gets the attention it deserves. We work closely with homeowners, interior designers, architects, and Realtors who care about the same things we do.

In their words

Homeowners, designers & Realtors.

They turned the most stressful thing we could imagine into the calmest part of our year. The kitchen is the first thing every guest mentions now.

I send Silver Homes my listings that need work before they hit the market. The before-and-after results move homes faster, and at better numbers.

As an interior designer, I trust very few builders with my drawings. This studio reads a plan and elevates it. Clean site, honest timeline, real craft.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Where in the East Bay do you work?

We focus on Oakland, Berkeley, Piedmont, Montclair, the Oakland Hills, and the surrounding East Bay communities. If you are nearby and unsure, just ask.

Do you handle both design and construction?

Yes. We are a design-build studio, so the same team carries your project from the first sketch and material direction through to the final styling. You can also bring your own designer or architect, and we will build alongside them.

What does a project typically cost and how long does it take?

Every home is different, so we give you a clear fixed scope after the first walkthrough. As a guide, kitchens and baths usually run 8 to 14 weeks, and whole-home renovations 4 to 9 months. You will always know the number and the timeline before we begin.

Can you help with branding or visual direction?

We lead visual direction on most of our projects, from palettes and materials to fixtures and the finishing details. If you have a designer already, we collaborate happily.

Do you work with Realtors on pre-listing renovations?

Often. We help agents prepare homes for market with renovations that lift value and shorten time on market, and we provide before-and-after photography you are welcome to use in your listings.
