ABOUT US

Embarking on a construction project is no small undertaking and should not be taken lightly.

Kellow Construction is a Santa Barbara-based remodeling company known for its unique design-build model, which delivers efficient and stress-free projects. We are dedicated to craftsmanship, guided by core values of responsiveness, professionalism, honesty, and excellence. Our experienced team, alongside trusted local subcontractors, ensures that each project meets the highest standards, creating beautiful, lasting structures. Through clear communication and a passion for building, we help clients bring their dreams to life with integrity and care.

Design and build,
from start to finish.

Kellow Construction works in the design-build model of construction. This offers a number of advantages over traditional design-bid-build companies.

One of the main benefits is that design-build companies complete projects more efficiently because the design and construction processes are integrated from project inception. As a result, the final product is more likely to meet the client's needs, and expectations. Design converts to construction much more smoothly, and at higher rates, when the builder is deeply involved in the design process. Click here to learn more.
