Costs vary based on design choices, materials, project scope, kitchen size, the age of the structure, and structural changes. A good rule of thumb for a kitchen remodel is to budget around 10%–15% of the home's value. This not only ensures a solid return on investment, especially if you plan to sell in the future, but also allows for a range of design options.

The design and planning phase, including material selection, typically takes 4 to 6 weeks. Once construction begins, most remodels are completed within 8 to 10 weeks on average.

We recommend budgeting an additional 10%–20% beyond the initial contract price to account for unforeseen issues, material upgrades, or design changes. While we aim to stay within the agreed budget, remodeling can sometimes reveal hidden challenges, and having a buffer ensures the project runs smoothly without unexpected delays.

Yes, most kitchen remodels require permits, especially if the project involves structural, electrical, plumbing, or mechanical changes. However, a permit may not be needed if your remodel only includes cosmetic updates such as replacing fixtures, installing new flooring, painting, or updating cabinets and countertops. We’ll oversee the permitting process to ensure your project complies with all local building codes.

An architect or engineer may be needed if your remodel involves structural changes, such as removing load-bearing walls or modifying complex mechanical, electrical, or plumbing systems. However, it may not be necessary for more straightforward projects. We can assess your project and advise whether professional plans are needed.

Absolutely! We collaborate with local designers and vendors to help you select materials, finishes, and layouts that match your style and budget.
