Saint Paul Kitchen Remodel FAQs

How long does a kitchen remodel take?+

Most kitchen remodels take 6–12 weeks of on-site work, plus 4–10 weeks of design and material lead time. Full custom cabinetry can push the timeline to 14–16 weeks total. We hand you a calendar with milestones at contract signing.

Can I live in my home during a kitchen remodel?+

Yes — most clients do. We seal the work area with plastic, set up a temporary kitchen (microwave, fridge, induction burner) in another room, and clean up daily. If you're doing a full gut with structural changes, expect 2–4 weeks where the space is unusable.

Do I need permits?+

Almost certainly. Any kitchen work involving plumbing relocation, new electrical circuits, structural changes (wall removal), or projects over $1,000–$5,000 (varies by city) requires a permit. We pull all permits and manage inspections.

Will you work with my designer or architect?+

Absolutely. We collaborate regularly with kitchen designers, interior designers, and architects. We can also handle full design in-house if you don't already have a designer.
