Kitchen Remodeler Boca Raton: Complete Kitchens, One Contract

Two things move the price and they move independently: how big the kitchen is, measured in linear feet of cabinetry, and whether the layout stays where it is. A kitchen under 20 linear feet that keeps its layout starts at $15,000. A typical 21 to 35 foot kitchen, same layout, starts at $25,000 and usually lands between $25,000 and $42,000. Once a wall, the plumbing or the electrical has to move, the project starts at $42,000. The final number comes from measuring your kitchen, not from a phone call.

Those are two different numbers, and almost nobody publishes the second one. A same-layout remodel runs 3 to 6 weeks total, counting design, cabinet and countertop fabrication, and permit review when it applies. Of that, 2 to 3 weeks is construction inside your house. A layout change runs 8 to 12 weeks total and 4 to 6 weeks in the home. We do not start demolition until the materials that drive the next phases are ready, which is what keeps the second number shorter than the first.

Not always, and it is the first thing we check. Parts of western Boca Raton sit in unincorporated Palm Beach County, where the county permit center handles the application instead of the City. The two use different portals, different forms and different inspection schedules. We confirm which authority covers your address before any drawings or applications are prepared, because getting it wrong costs weeks before a single cabinet is ordered.

It varies by building, and the building controls more of your schedule than most owners expect. What usually comes up: written association approval, a certificate of insurance naming the association, approved work hours, a reserved and padded service elevator, delivery windows, debris removal rules, and sometimes a renovation deposit. We collect all of it before the crew is scheduled. A task that takes eight hours in a single family home can take two days when the work window is four hours and the elevator is booked.

Yes, and a good share of our projects run that way. Owners who leave for the summer often schedule demolition for the weeks they are gone. Two things to plan around: those are the months everyone else books, so cabinet and countertop lead times stretch, and some buildings set their own seasonal construction windows. We read your building's rules before committing to a start date rather than after.

Usually, but the honest answer depends on what is under the floor. In older homes the original drain often runs below the slab. Moving a sink six feet is not six feet of pipe: it means cutting concrete, exposing the line, checking its material and condition, and deciding whether to tie into it or replace the section. We verify the plumbing before pricing a layout change, so that discovery happens on paper instead of on day three of demolition.

A new kitchen asks more of the panel than the old one ever did. An induction range, a wall oven, a dishwasher, a wine refrigerator, island receptacles, under cabinet lighting and recessed fixtures all add load. The question is not whether your wiring is bad. It is whether the existing circuits and panel support the design you want. We check that before cabinets are ordered, and if additional circuits or a panel change are needed, they go into the scope and the price up front.

It covers our installation labor for two years from the day the project is finished. The written terms come with your contract, so you see exactly what is and is not covered before any work is scheduled.

It is enough for a complete rebuild of a small kitchen, up to twenty linear feet of cabinetry, which is what most condo and villa kitchens here actually are. That figure covers cabinets, countertop, backsplash, demolition, disposal and installation, done whole rather than in pieces. Below it we are not the right company, and we would rather you knew that from this page than from a visit. If the cabinet boxes are still sound, refacing costs a good deal less and gets you a kitchen that looks new in days rather than weeks.

Cabinetry, in almost every project, and it is also the longest lead time. Stone is usually second. But the line that decides which price band you are in is not a product at all: it is whether the layout moves. A kitchen that keeps its plan is a bigger or smaller version of the same job. Once a wall comes out, or the sink moves in a house built on a slab, the concrete has to be cut and trenched and the project changes category rather than just getting more expensive.
