We’ve heard all the complaints.
Outdated cabinets that waste space. Countertops you’re embarrassed to show guests. Layouts that make cooking harder than it should be. If your kitchen isn’t working for you, we’ll fix it. We’ve been remodeling kitchens in Charlotte since 2013, and we know how to turn a frustrating space into one you actually want to use.
If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone. These are the most common complaints we hear from Charlotte homeowners before they remodel their kitchens.
Bad kitchen layouts waste your time and energy. The fridge is too far from the prep area. The stove is in the wrong spot. You're doing laps just to make dinner. We redesign layouts based on the kitchen work triangle—fridge, sink, stove—so everything flows. Less walking, better workflow, smarter design.
Most older kitchens were built with generic cabinets that don't actually fit how you cook. Pots stacked in corners you can't reach. Spices crammed into a cabinet you have to dig through. No pantry. We design custom storage solutions: pull-out shelves, deep drawers for pots and pans, hidden pantries, spice racks that make sense. A place for everything.
New cabinets are expensive. But you don't always need them. Sometimes painting or refinishing your existing cabinets gets you 90% of the look for a fraction of the cost. We'll tell you honestly whether replacement, refinishing, or painting makes the most sense for your budget and your goals.
An island can transform your kitchen—but only if it's done right. Too big and it kills your workflow. Too small and it's just decorative. We design functional islands with storage, seating, or prep space based on how you actually use your kitchen. If an island won't work, we'll tell you and suggest better options.
Countertops take a beating. Stains, chips, burns, outdated colors. We walk you through material options—quartz, granite, butcher block, concrete—and help you choose based on durability, budget, and style. No upselling, just honest advice on what works.
Pantry space changes everything. Whether it's a walk-in pantry, a floor-to-ceiling cabinet, or a pull-out system, we build storage that fits your space and keeps your kitchen organized. No more digging through stacked cans or losing track of what you have.
Opening up a kitchen to the living or dining area is one of the most popular requests we get. It makes your home feel bigger and more connected. But it's structural work—you need to know if the wall is load-bearing, what the cost is, and whether it makes sense for your layout. We handle the engineering, the permits, and the execution.
Mismatched, outdated appliances make your whole kitchen look worse. We help you select appliances that fit your cooking style, your budget, and your design. And we coordinate the installation so everything works together—plumbing, electrical, gas lines, ventilation.
Bad lighting ruins a kitchen. One dim overhead light doesn't cut it. We design layered lighting: task lighting over the counters and island, ambient lighting for the whole room, and accent lighting to highlight features. Better light means better cooking and a kitchen that feels alive.
Backsplash is one of the most visible parts of your kitchen. If it's outdated, cracked, or just ugly, it drags down the whole space. We install tile, stone, or other materials that fit your style and protect your walls. It's one of the best bang-for-your-buck upgrades.
Kitchen remodels aren’t just about making things look nicer. They’re about solving real problems that make cooking and living in your home harder than it needs to be. Whether it’s storage, layout, lighting, or just bringing your kitchen into this century, we’ll help you figure out what actually matters for how you live.

Most kitchen remodels in Charlotte range from $25,000 to $75,000+ depending on the size and scope. A basic refresh with new countertops, backsplash, and painted cabinets might be $25,000-$35,000. A full renovation with new cabinets, layout changes, appliances, and high-end finishes can run $50,000-$75,000 or more. We’ll give you a detailed estimate based on your specific project and help you prioritize where to spend your budget.
Most kitchen projects take 6-12 weeks from start to finish. A cosmetic update with new countertops, backsplash, and cabinet refinishing might be done in 4-6 weeks. A full kitchen renovation with new cabinets, layout changes, plumbing, and electrical usually takes 8-12 weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start so you know what to expect and can plan around it.
It depends on the scope of your project. If you’re doing cosmetic updates like painting cabinets, replacing countertops in the same layout, or swapping out appliances, you typically don’t need a permit. You will need a permit if you’re moving plumbing or electrical lines, relocating fixtures like the sink or stove, changing the kitchen layout, removing walls, or if your project cost exceeds around $15,000-$20,000. Most full kitchen renovations require permits in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. We handle the entire permit process for you—pulling permits, coordinating inspections, and making sure all the work meets local building codes.
