Kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz counters and stainless appliances

One crew, no hand-offs

Ask anyone whose remodel went sideways and they'll point to a hand-off: the designer who never met the framer, the cabinet vendor blaming the plumber, three companies and somehow nobody's fault. We skip all of that. One family-owned crew plans your kitchen with you, pulls the permits, and builds it start to finish.

Who this is for

  • You are changing the plan, not just the surfaces: moving the range, the sink or a wall, which brings in plumbing and permits.
  • You want to know the whole price, in writing, before anything comes off the wall.
  • You already have a designer or an architect, and you need a crew that builds to their drawings.

Only want paint and new hardware? Read the note beside the form.

What the job includes

Included

  • Layout planning around how you cook: where the trash pulls out, where the pans land, where people stand while you cook. We plan around your habits, not a catalog photo.
  • Cabinets and counters: custom and semi-custom cabinetry, quartz and natural stone, and hardware that pulls the whole room together.
  • Plumbing and electrical: sinks moved, circuits added, recessed and under-cabinet task lighting run right, all permitted and inspected.
  • We pull City of San Jose permits, handle Title 24, and meet the inspector.
  • Floor and walkway protection, dust control where we can, and a clean site at the end of each phase.

Priced separately, in writing

  • Damage found behind the walls. We explain what we found and what the fix costs, and wait for your written approval.
  • Changes you ask for after the price is set.

You decide before demolition

  • Which appliances you keep.
  • Whether the sink or the range moves.
  • What storage you need.
  • Cabinets, counters and fixtures. We check that they work together and review delivery timing with you.

How the job runs

  1. Walk and measure.We come to your kitchen, measure, and talk through what does not work.
  2. Price in writing.You get a line-item fixed price before anything comes out.
  3. Choose and order.You settle appliances, cabinets, counters and fixtures. Cabinet lead times set the start date.
  4. Permit.We pull the City of San Jose permit, so the work is on the record and inspected.
  5. Build.Most kitchens run about six to ten weeks once demolition starts. You get one point of contact and regular updates, and we help you set up a temporary kitchen so the weeks without a stove stay bearable.
  6. Inspect and finish.We meet the inspector, so you never stand in line at the permit center, then close out the permit and leave the site clean.

What the price depends on

Our own pricing, September 2026: most kitchens start around $30,000.

Here's the honest version: the biggest lever is whether your sink, range and walls stay put or move. Cabinetry is usually the largest line after that, then moving plumbing and electrical, the countertop material, and what the walls hide in an older home. We walk you through every line before you commit, so nothing hides in the fine print. Our San Jose kitchen cost guide breaks the ranges down with sources.

Kitchen remodels: common questions
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
A straightforward San Jose kitchen usually runs six to ten weeks on site once demolition starts, but the calendar is set well before that by cabinet lead times. Cabinet selections, confirmed deliveries and the agreed scope shape the start date. We review these before demolition; hidden conditions or a scope change can affect the construction schedule.
Can I stay in the house during the remodel?
It depends on the scope and which parts of the home remain usable. Before work starts, we talk through a temporary food-preparation area, refrigerator access, the work route and any planned utility shutoffs. Moving walls or replacing flooring across the whole level can make staying harder. We talk through those constraints with you before demolition.
Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in San Jose?
Cosmetic work does not: cabinet replacement, countertops, flooring, painting, and tile with no structural change are exempt under San Jose Municipal Code 24.02.110. You do need permits once you move plumbing or gas, add or relocate circuits, remove a wall, or change a window or door opening. Most real kitchen remodels cross that line somewhere, and we pull and close out the permit as part of the job.
What actually drives the price?
Cabinetry first, then whether anything moves. Cabinets are usually the largest line. After that it is plumbing and electrical relocation, whether a wall comes out, countertop material, and what the walls hide in an older home. Our San Jose kitchen cost guide breaks the ranges down with sources.
Do you handle the design, or do I need a designer?
We coordinate the design and the drawings for you, so the layout, the permit and the build stay on one plan. If you already have a designer or an architect, we build to their drawings without friction.
What happens if you find something behind the walls?
Your price is fixed for the agreed scope. Concealed damage or a change you request can change the work. We explain what was found or requested, the proposed correction and its cost, and get your written approval before proceeding with the additional work.
What should I bring to the first conversation?
Photos of the current kitchen, any available drawings, and a short list of what does not work for you are a useful start. Tell us which appliances and finishes you want to keep, which ones you plan to replace, and whether you hope to stay in the home during construction. You do not need every finish selected to start the conversation.
