Frequently asked.

The questions every Glendale homeowner asks first.

Licensing, permits, historic districts, HOAs, timelines, warranties — straight answers.

Are you licensed and insured to do remodeling work in Glendale?

Yes. Coker Construction is licensed by the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC) and carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance.

Every subcontractor we bring onto a Glendale job is independently ROC-licensed in their trade and provides current certificates of insurance before work begins. We re-verify annually.

Do you work in Glendale's National Register historic districts like Catlin Court?

Yes. We work in Catlin Court, Old Towne, Northfield, Glendale Gardens, and the other historic districts on the National Register. We coordinate with the City of Glendale's historic preservation office where appropriate and respect the architectural language of each period.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. The initial walkthrough and itemized written estimate are free. We aim to turn around a written estimate within 48 hours of the on-site visit.

How long does a typical kitchen or bathroom remodel take?

Bathroom remodels typically run 3–6 weeks on site. Kitchen remodels typically run 4–8 weeks, depending on whether walls are coming down and how custom the cabinetry is.

Permit timelines with the City of Glendale can add 1–3 weeks at the front for projects requiring them. Historic district projects can take longer if architectural review is involved.

Do you handle City of Glendale permits?

Yes. We pull all required permits with the City of Glendale Building Safety Department and coordinate inspections. Most kitchen and bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes require permits; cosmetic-only refreshes generally do not.

Can you work in HOAs like Arrowhead Ranch, Marbella, or Stonehaven?

Yes. We're familiar with the architectural review processes in Arrowhead Ranch, Arrowhead Lakes, Marbella Vineyards, Stonehaven, and the other HOA communities in north Glendale.

We prepare and submit ARC packages as part of any exterior project.

Do you do whole-home remodels on older Glendale homes?

Yes — it's one of our most common project types in Glendale. The city has deep 1970s–90s tract inventory in central neighborhoods that often makes more sense to remodel whole-cloth than piece by piece.

We scope mechanical updates (panel, plumbing, HVAC) alongside finish updates so the result holds together architecturally and you're not paying twice for adjacent demo.

Do you build ADUs and casitas in Glendale?

Yes. We design, permit, and build detached ADUs and casitas across Glendale. As part of early scoping, we'll review your lot setbacks, HOA rules, and utility tie-in feasibility so you know what's possible before any commitment.

Do you handle single-trade work — just painting, flooring, or drywall repair?

Yes, though we have a project-size minimum. If you only need a single room painted or a small drywall patch, we may refer you out. For whole-home single-trade work, we take it on directly.

What ZIP codes do you serve in Glendale?

All Glendale ZIPs — 85301 (historic downtown), 85302, 85303, 85304, 85305 (Westgate area), 85306, 85307, 85308 (Arrowhead area), and 85310 — plus the surrounding West Valley.

What kind of warranty do you offer?

We provide a one-year workmanship warranty on all Coker-managed remodeling and addition work. Manufacturer warranties on appliances, fixtures, and materials pass through to the homeowner at their published terms.

Can I live in the house during a remodel?

For most remodels, yes. Bathroom and kitchen projects affect daily routines but rarely require moving out. Full-home remodels and large additions are case-by-case, and we'll be straight with you during scoping about what to expect.
