Remodeling Company in Mentone, CA
Home renovation in Mentone means working with a specific kind of house on a specific kind of land. Most homes here are mid-century or older, sitting on large, rural-feeling lots at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains. The work we do regularly involves bringing older electrical, plumbing, and roofing systems up to current code while adding square footage or reworking interiors. Stallion Contractors has served Mentone since 2011, handling everything from kitchen overhauls to full exterior replacements. Call (855) 600-3192 for a free estimate on your project.
Why Mentone Homes Are Different
Mentone sits in a wildfire-prone wildland-urban interface zone, tucked against the Crafton Hills and the mountain foothills. That geography changes what gets specified on a job before we even talk about cabinets or countertops. Roof replacements here routinely need ignition-resistant assemblies and ember-resistant vents, because chaparral fires can carry straight into the neighborhood. A valley-floor contractor a few miles west may never have to price those materials in. We do, every time.
The housing stock itself is a mix of older detached single-family homes on oversized lots and a notable share of manufactured and mobile homes. That means renovation work often includes manufactured-home tie-downs, foundation upgrades, and full electrical or plumbing modernization alongside the visible remodel. Many homes were built before current energy and seismic codes, so renovation in Mentone is rarely cosmetic. It is corrective.
Mentone also deals with real terrain on the east-side slope lots. Grading, drainage, and hillside runoff have to be addressed as part of any addition or exterior project. The lot shapes the plan.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Mentone Services
Two services account for most of what Mentone homeowners call us about. The first is full-scope general contracting for projects that touch multiple trades at once. The second is home remodeling, where the scope is interior or exterior but the house itself is aging and needs coordination beyond a single trade.
General Contractor in Mentone
A general contractor in Mentone is the difference between managing four separate crews and having one accountable team. On a hillside lot with an older home, a remodel can involve a roofer, an electrician, a plumber, a grading crew, and a finish carpenter. Stallion runs that scope under one contract, so the homeowner is not the one chasing subs. For additions, ADUs, and whole-home renovations, this is the cleaner way to build. See our full General Contractor in Mentone page for scope and pricing.
Home Remodeling in Mentone
Home remodeling in Mentone often starts with a kitchen or bathroom and expands once we open the walls. Older homes hide outdated wiring, cast-iron drain lines, and framing that was never meant to carry modern loads. We plan for those discoveries so the final budget reflects the real house, not an optimistic guess. From cabinetry to rooflines, Stallion handles the full remodel under one contract. Visit our Home Remodeling in Mentone page for a detailed breakdown.

Home Renovation in Mentone
Home renovation in Mentone is shaped by a simple fact: the houses are old and the lots are big. A 1960s rancher on half an acre in the 92359 ZIP often needs its electrical panel, attic insulation, roof assembly, and drain lines brought to code before any new finishes go in. Renovation here is not a matter of swapping fixtures; it is bringing the whole structure forward while adding the space and function the homeowner actually wants. That is the core of what our Home Renovation service delivers, and it is why we approach every Mentone renovation as a full-system project rather than a surface update.
Stallion Contractors has served Mentone since 2011, and the renovation scope we run most often covers kitchens, bathrooms, and whole-home interior reworks on aging stock, along with the exterior hardening and structural corrections the hillside and fire zone demand.
Home Renovation Contractors
Signs you need it
Your home has multiple systems past their useful life at once, or the renovation scope touches framing, plumbing, electrical, and finishes in a way no single-trade contractor can coordinate.
What it costs in Mentone
Whole-home renovation led by a general contractor in Mentone typically runs $45,000 – $130,000 depending on square footage, system replacement depth, and hillside site work.
How we do it
We assess the structure and systems first, produce a fixed line-item scope, then run every trade under our license from demo to final inspection so nothing falls between contractors.
Home Improvement Contractors
Signs you need it
You are planning multiple improvements that will touch different trades, and you do not want to act as your own project manager across separate crews.
What it costs in Mentone
Home improvement projects in Mentone vary by scope; a kitchen remodel typically falls between $14,000 and $45,000, while a bathroom remodel runs $9,000 – $28,000.
How we do it
We sequence the trades so the work flows without gaps, pull the permits, and hold each subcontractor to the same written scope and material standard.
What Home Renovation Costs in Mentone
| Item | Typical range in Mentone |
|---|---|
| Whole-home renovation | $45,000 – $130,000 |
| Kitchen remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Bathroom remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
Will renovation require bringing older Mentone homes up to code?
Mostly yes. When we open walls on a mid-century Mentone home, we typically find electrical, plumbing, or structural work that must be brought current before the project can pass inspection. We build that into the estimate up front.
Can one contractor really handle a full Mentone renovation?
Yes. Stallion runs kitchens, bathrooms, roofing, windows, siding, fencing, hardscaping, and ADUs under one contract. You get one point of accountability and one written scope instead of coordinating five separate crews.
Brands We Service in Mentone
Stallion installs and services material from our brands roster, and in Mentone that often means fire-rated roofing assemblies, James Hardie siding, and premium countertop lines like Cambria and Silestone. We also run Abodu and Dvele ADU and prefab projects on qualifying lots. Parts are sourced through our supplier network, not big-box retail, which keeps turnaround predictable.

Two things push Mentone prices above the valley-floor baseline: fire-hardening requirements and hillside site conditions. Ember-resistant venting, Class A roofing assemblies, and ignition-resistant exterior details add material cost that a flat-lot house in Redlands may not carry. Sloped lots add grading, drainage, and sometimes retaining work before the structure even starts.
We quote a fixed, written line-item price before work begins. No change orders surprise you later unless the scope genuinely changes and you approve it first.

FAQs About Remodeling Company in Mentone
Most Mentone projects move from signed contract to permits within two to four weeks. Hillside and fire-zone properties sometimes need additional plan review, which can extend that timeline. We handle the paperwork and coordinate with the county or fire authority. Call (855) 600-3192 to get a realistic start date for your specific address.
Yes, in many cases. Because Mentone sits in a high fire-severity zone, exterior renovations, roof replacements, and additions often require ignition-resistant materials and ember-resistant venting to pass inspection. We design to those requirements from the first estimate, so they are priced in rather than discovered later.
Yes. Mentone has a significant number of manufactured and mobile homes, and we regularly handle tie-down upgrades, foundation work, and full interior remodels for those properties. The permitting path is different from a stick-built house, and we manage that process for you. Estimates are free; call (855) 600-3192.

What Mentone Customers Say
"Excellent build. Costs came in about six percent over the original contract, driven mostly by material price movement during the build, which he documented each time."
— Karen Lin"Framing crew was meticulous and the walls are straight everywhere. Drywall goes on a lot better when the framing is right."
— Cole Thompson"Every inspection passed first time. The building department clearly knows him and that made the whole process easier."
— Mark Whitaker
