The Monterey Peninsula's homes carry a character that generic contractors rarely understand — from the storybook cottages of Carmel-by-the-Sea to the mid-century estates of Pebble Beach and the Victorian-era bungalows of Pacific Grove. Hovick Design and Construction specializes in kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, historic home restoration, ADUs, and full whole-home renovations across Monterey County.

Why Choose Us?

Timeless Craftsmanship & Personalized Design

Nick Hovick doesn't treat your home like a job number. Every project on the Monterey Peninsula — whether a kitchen transformation in Carmel Valley or a bathroom refresh in Pacific Grove — begins with a real conversation about how you live. His background as a set designer and technical director in professional theater means he sees spatial problems differently: proportion, light, material, and narrative all matter. The result is craftsmanship that looks intentional, not just finished.

Sustainable & Thoughtful Renovations

Coastal living comes with a responsibility to the land and the environment around it. Hovick Design and Construction prioritizes materials and methods that hold up to Monterey Peninsula weather — salt air, marine layer, and seasonal moisture — while minimizing waste and environmental impact. From low-VOC finishes to reclaimed wood cabinetry, sustainable choices are built into the process, not added on as an afterthought. Your renovation should be good for your home and good for the coast.

Expert Project Management & Seamless Execution

Remodeling is stressful enough without a contractor who disappears between milestones. Nick manages every Hovick project directly — coordinating licensed subcontractors, navigating Monterey County permits, and keeping timelines honest. His theater background taught him that every production depends on a disciplined schedule and clear communication. You'll always know where your project stands, what's coming next, and who to call. No surprises. No runaround.

Testimonials

Steven G.

We purchased a home that Hovick Design had recently remodeled. We were so impressed by the quality of the work and now enjoy living in our new home. After moving in, we had Hovick Design complete some further custom work - cabinetry, a window, screen doors etc. After that we had Hovick Design design and build a pergola room outside our bedroom. All the work was top rate and high quality. I enjoyed working with Nick and his crew and totally recommend the company.

Hovick Design did a full remodel of my kitchen and bath. They also rebuilt my laundry room and drywalled one of my bedrooms. The house is 100 years old but this did not even phase them. The entire job went very well from design and permitting to end of construction. The great experiance of Nick and his staff really showed. I am very satisfied with the end result. If you are looking for a high-end professional at a competitive price, look to Holvick Design in the Central Coast area of California.
