Palm Springs is an icon — mid-century modern architecture, resort living, and a design culture that takes its homes seriously. Restoring and updating these houses takes a contractor with two qualities that rarely come together: respect for architectural character and full multi-trade capability. A breeze-block wall, a post-and-beam roof, walls of glass — and behind them, plumbing and HVAC systems that need to perform in 115-degree heat. Mars Construction Industries Corp brings both: design-sensitive remodeling backed by A, B, C-36, and C-20 licenses in-house, with 30+ years of hands-on experience. One accountable team for the architecture and the infrastructure alike.
Construction & Remodeling Services in Palm Springs, CA
Mid-century remodels are a specialty. We restore and update kitchens with clean lines and period-appropriate materials, rebuild bathrooms with terrazzo-era spirit and modern waterproofing, and open interiors to the desert light these homes were designed around — all while preserving the architectural details that make the house valuable. Our C-36 plumbers handle every pipe in-house, and our crews are experienced with the quirks of mid-century construction: radiant floor systems, flat and low-slope roofs, and walls you don’t open casually.
HVAC in Palm Springs is mission-critical design work, not just equipment. Walls of glass and flat roofs create brutal cooling loads, and many mid-century homes still run on systems that were marginal decades ago. Our C-20 team designs for the architecture — high-efficiency systems, zoned cooling, and ductless options where traditional ductwork would compromise the design — sized for real desert loads.
Beyond the icons, Palm Springs has condos, newer homes, and a thriving short-term rental market — all of which we serve with kitchen and bath updates, durable flooring, whole-home renovations, and reliable systems work: water heaters, repipes, and fixture upgrades. Drain and sewer service comes through 911 Drain Lines — camera inspections, hydro jetting, and trenchless repair with a 20-year lining warranty. We also build additions and ADUs (more than 100 through ADU Cities in four years) designed to complement mid-century architecture.
