Your Kitchen Remodel, Step by Step
Our kitchen remodeling process is simple and transparent. You know the price, the plan, and the timeline before we touch a single cabinet.
Design Consultation
We walk your kitchen, listen to how you cook and entertain, and sketch a personalized design that fixes your daily frustrations. Every kitchen renovation starts with how you actually live.
Written Estimate
One clear price in writing: kitchen cabinets, counters, plumbing, electrical, flooring, paint. It holds unless you change the plan.
Build & Install
Our own crew handles demo, kitchen cabinets, counters, and trim. Weekly updates with photos, and a schedule that sticks. This is where remodeling your kitchen gets exciting.
Final Walkthrough
Nothing gets checked off until you say so. We tune every drawer and touch up every seam before we call it done.
What We Replace in Your Kitchen Remodel
A complete kitchen remodel covers every surface and system in the room. Here is what the typical Gainesville project includes.
Custom Kitchen Cabinetry
New cabinets set the tone for the whole room: shaker, flat-panel, and raised-panel doors in painted and stained finishes, soft-close hinges, full-extension drawers, plus pantry, island, and trim details that stock boxes miss.
Countertops and Backsplash
Quartz, granite, butcher block, and solid surface counters, templated after cabinets are set so the fit is exact. Matching or contrasting backsplash ties the run together, from classic subway tile to full-height slabs behind the range.
Flooring
We pull the old vinyl or tile and lay new flooring across the whole space: engineered hardwood, LVP, or tile, leveled underneath so nothing flexes or clicks underfoot. Transitions into the adjoining rooms get matched too.
Plumbing and Fixtures
New sink, faucet, disposal, and supply lines, plus dishwasher and refrigerator connections moved where the new layout needs them. If walls open up, we replace the supply and drain lines while they are exposed.
Electrical and Lighting
Under-cabinet lighting, pendants over the island, recessed cans on dimmers, and dedicated circuits for the oven and microwave. We pull permits for the electrical scope so the work passes inspection the first time.
Walls, Ceiling, and Paint
Drywall repair where the old cabinets hung, a smooth ceiling finish, and a painted sage or warm neutral that makes the new cabinetry pop. Paint is the final coat on the whole project.
How Long a Kitchen Remodel Takes
A realistic schedule, phase by phase, from first visit to final walkthrough.
Weeks 1 to 2: Design and Ordering
The design consultation, layout decisions, cabinet selection, and a written price. Cabinets are the long-lead item, so we order them the moment you approve. Most cabinet lines run four to eight weeks to deliver.
Week 1 On Site: Demo and Rough-In
Cabinets, counters, and flooring come out. Plumbing and electrical get roughed in for the new layout, inspections get scheduled, and the room is prepped for the rebuild.
Weeks 2 to 4: Build and Install
Cabinets set, counters templated and fabricated, flooring laid, backsplash tiled. Our own crew handles the build with weekly photo updates, so you always know where things stand.
Final Week: Paint and Walkthrough
Paint, hardware, trim, and fixtures go in. Then the final walkthrough: we tune every drawer and touch up every seam before we call it done. Nothing gets checked off until you say so.

Kitchen Remodeling Questions, Answered
The things Gainesville homeowners ask us most before starting a kitchen remodel.
Most kitchens we build fall between a refresh (new counters, cabinet fronts, hardware) and a full remodel with layout changes. After the design consultation you get one written price covering cabinets, counters, plumbing, electrical, flooring, and paint. It holds unless you change the plan.
A refresh typically takes one to two weeks. A full remodel with layout changes usually runs four to eight weeks depending on cabinet lead times. You get a schedule in writing before we start, with weekly updates throughout.
Yes. Custom cabinetry, quartz and granite counters, backsplash tile, flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and paint are all handled by our one team. One written price, one project lead, no juggling subcontractors yourself.
Usually yes. We set up a dust barrier, keep a working path clear, and clean the work area daily. Most families cook out of a temporary setup for the cabinet and counter phase, then have the kitchen back for finish work.
Yes. Financing options can spread the cost of your project over time. Ask about financing during your consultation or reach us on the contact page and we will walk you through the approvals.
Most Florida kitchen remodels run between 25,000 and 65,000 dollars depending on size, finishes, and how much plumbing or electrical moves. A compact refresh with new fronts and counters can land under 20,000 dollars, while a full custom kitchen remodel with high-end cabinetry and stone counters goes higher. We give you a written price that holds, so your number is set before demo day.
A good rule of thumb is 5 to 15 percent of your home's value, which keeps the remodel proportional to what the house is worth. For a 300,000 dollar home that means budgeting roughly 15,000 to 45,000 dollars. Tell us your number and we will design the project around it, trading finishes and scope instead of surprising you mid-job.
10,000 dollars works for a light refresh: painted or refaced cabinet fronts, new hardware, a laminate or mid-tier counter, faucet, and paint. It does not cover new custom cabinets, layout changes, or moved plumbing. If your budget is tight, we will tell you straight what 10,000 dollars buys and what to save for round two.
The 30% rule is a budgeting guideline: keep your remodeling project at or below about 30% of your home's market value to protect resale. For a 250,000 dollar home that caps the project near 75,000 dollars. It is a sanity check, not a law. A well-built kitchen in Gainesville often returns most of its cost at sale, so we help you spend where it counts.
