Frequently asked

Common questions.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?+

Design and selections: 4–6 weeks. Cabinet build (custom): 6–10 weeks, in parallel with permit. On-site construction: 8–12 weeks. Total project from kickoff to final inspection: roughly 4–6 months.

What does a kitchen remodel cost in San Diego?+

Most full kitchen remodels we take on land between $80,000 and $180,000. Cabinet style and box count, appliance package, counter material, and how much electrical and plumbing relocation is needed all push the number around. We give a real number after a site walk.

Do you make your own cabinets?+

Yes. Custom cabinetry is built in our shop. Door style, box construction, drawer hardware, and finish are all spec'd to the project, not to a stock catalog.

Can we live at home during a kitchen remodel?+

Yes. Most clients do. We set up a temporary kitchen (sink, microwave, fridge), seal off the work zone with plastic, and run a daily clean.

Do you pull the permit?+

Always. Kitchens trigger electrical, plumbing, and sometimes gas permits. We file, post, and close out everything with the city.
