Questions

Before you begin

Detailed answers are here when you need them. Open a question to learn more.

What is included in this service?

Work can include Kitchen Demolition, Floor Removal, Wall Removal, Tile Removal, Cabinet Removal, and Debris Removal. The final proposal confirms the selected services, quantities, site conditions, and any exclusions for your property.

How long does the work usually take?

A ready-to-start basic-to-standard scope typically takes 2–4 weeks. Site conditions, selections, permits, inspections, weather, access, and approved changes can affect the schedule.

Can existing cabinets be reused?

Existing cabinets can be retained when their condition, dimensions, and layout suit the approved design. Reuse is confirmed before demolition because removal and modification can expose limitations.

How is pricing calculated?

Pricing is built from the selected services using hourly, project-based, per-room, and per-square-foot rates, as applicable to the measured scope. Design-dependent or concealed work may require a custom quotation. The final proposal confirms quantities and approved choices.

How long will the kitchen be unusable?

The main kitchen is typically limited or unavailable during much of the 2–4 week work window. We identify shutdown, cabinet, countertop, and connection milestones so temporary arrangements can be planned.

Can I cook during the renovation?

Normal cooking is usually interrupted when utilities, cabinets, counters, or finishes are being changed. A temporary setup may be possible outside the work zone if it can be used safely.
