Kitchen Remodeling
A whole kitchen, run by the person who drew the cabinets.

Cabinet-led whole-kitchen renovation — demo, layout, cabinetry, counters, backsplash, and the punch list.

Most kitchen remodels go sideways in the seams — between the demo crew and the cabinet guy, between the cabinet guy and the countertop fabricator, between everyone and the electrician who needed to move an outlet before the backsplash went on. We run the whole thing so those seams belong to one person.

Because we are a cabinet shop first, the layout gets designed around the cabinetry rather than the cabinetry being squeezed into a layout someone else drew. That is the difference between a kitchen with a well-placed pantry and a kitchen with an eleven-inch filler where a pantry should have been.

  • Electrical and plumbing rough coordination with licensed trades
  • Written schedule updated in writing when anything moves
How it goes

From the first visit to the punch list.

Seven steps, in order, every time. You always know which one you are in.

Step 01

The first visit

Vincent comes out, measures the room, and looks at what you already have. If your boxes are worth keeping he will tell you so, even though refacing is the smaller job. You get a straight read on what the space can do.

Step 02

Design and drawings

We draw the room in 3D — elevations you can actually read, not a rendering with fake pendant lights. You see cabinet heights, drawer configurations, and where every filler lands before anything is ordered.

Step 03

Materials in your light

Door samples, finish samples, and hardware come to your house. Showroom lighting lies. A white that looks warm in the showroom can read grey under your north-facing window, and you should find that out now.

Step 04

A real calendar

At contract you get dates, not a range — order date, expected delivery, install week, template day, countertop install. If a supplier slips, you hear it from us in writing the day we hear it.

Questions

Kitchen Remodeling — the questions we get most.

How long will I be without a kitchen?
Six to ten weeks for a typical full remodel, with the cabinetry itself accounting for less than a week of that. The long poles are lead time on cabinetry and the two-to-three week gap between countertop template and install. We set up a temporary kitchen station on day one.
Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen?
If you are only replacing cabinets and counters in the same layout, often not. The moment plumbing or electrical moves, or a wall changes, you do. We handle the filing either way and we would rather pull a permit you did not strictly need than explain an unpermitted kitchen to a buyer's inspector in four years.
Can you work around us living in the house?
Yes, and most of our clients do. We contain dust, protect floors and pathways, work a defined daily window, and clean the site at the end of every day rather than at the end of the job.

Vincent does the first visit himself. He measures, he looks at what you already have, and he tells you straight what the room can do — including when the answer is less work than you expected. No charge for that visit.
