Remodeling and home building in Lake Forest Park in King County, WA
Lake Forest Park is a city in the woods, with homes tucked among big trees, ravines and creeks. TimberCrest Homes remodels kitchens and bathrooms and builds additions, decks and ADUs here, with a careful approach to the lots and trees that make the city what it is.
Lake Forest Park homes
Many Lake Forest Park homes are mid-century and custom-built, often on sloped, heavily treed lots along creeks like Lyon and McAleer. They're full of character: beamed ceilings, big windows and decks among the trees. They can also come with challenges like drainage, moss and moisture, and limited room for equipment.
What these homes often need
- Kitchen and bathroom remodels that respect mid-century design
- Decks rebuilt for shady, damp sites
- Additions that fit sloped lots
- Moisture and drainage fixes as part of a remodel
Permits in Lake Forest Park
The City of Lake Forest Park issues its own permits and has strong tree protection rules: removing significant trees usually needs a permit and replacement planting. Streams, wetlands and steep slopes are regulated critical areas with buffers. We design projects around them and handle the review.

Lake Forest Park questions
Do I need a permit to remove trees for a Lake Forest Park project?
Usually, for larger trees. Lake Forest Park regulates significant trees closely, and removal often requires a permit and replanting. We try to design around the trees you want to keep and include any tree permits in the plan.
Can you build an addition on a sloped Lake Forest Park lot?
Often, yes, with engineering suited to the slope and attention to any stream or wetland buffers. We look at the site first and give you an honest read on what's practical.
