Why Choose Our Full Kitchen Remodel
Garrett Construction has built a reputation as a top-rated general contractor by delivering full kitchen remodels that meet code, stay on budget, and hold up over time.
We self-perform the core trades. Our crews handle framing, rough carpentry, cabinet installation, and finish work in-house. We bring in licensed plumbers and electricians we’ve worked with for years. That coordination keeps your project moving without the delays that come from juggling multiple independent contractors.
Every full kitchen remodel starts with a detailed scope of work. You get a <strong>written contract</strong> that spells out materials, labor, allowances, and a project schedule. <em>No vague estimates. No surprise line items mid-project.</em>
We’re qualified to <strong>pull permits</strong> in our service area and we do it on every job. Permitted work protects your home’s resale value and gives you documented proof that the remodel meets local building codes.
Our <strong>workmanship warranty</strong> covers labor defects after project completion. We stand behind cabinet installation, countertop setting, tile work, and finish carpentry. If something isn’t right, we come back and fix it.
<b>Garrett Construction</b> also carries <strong>full general liability insurance</strong> and workers’ compensation coverage. You’re protected throughout the entire remodel process.
Signs You Need a Full Kitchen Remodel
If any of these sound familiar, it may be time for a complete kitchen renovation.
Your cabinet boxes are failing
When cabinet frames warp, drawer slides break repeatedly, or door hinges pull out of the substrate, surface repairs won’t hold. A full kitchen remodel replaces the cabinet carcasses entirely, giving you solid construction behind the doors instead of patched particle board.
Your layout doesn’t work for how you cook
A kitchen with the refrigerator on the opposite wall from the prep area, or a sink positioned away from the dishwasher, creates inefficient work triangles. A full remodel lets us reconfigure the layout, move plumbing stacks, and relocate electrical circuits to build a kitchen that actually functions.
Your countertops are cracked, stained, or outdated laminate
Laminate countertops that have delaminated at the edges or developed water damage beneath the surface can’t be refinished. Replacing them with granite, quartz, or quartzite slabs during a full kitchen remodel gives you a durable, cleanable surface that adds real value.
Your electrical panel can’t support modern appliances
Older kitchens often run on 15-amp circuits that trip under the load of a microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher running simultaneously. A full kitchen remodel includes upgrading to dedicated 20-amp circuits through our kitchen electrical services for countertop appliances and a separate circuit for the refrigerator.
Your flooring is uneven, cracked, or incompatible with new cabinetry
Tile that’s cracking along grout lines, or vinyl that’s lifting at the seams, signals subfloor movement or moisture intrusion. A full remodel addresses the subfloor before installing new tile, hardwood, or luxury vinyl plank, so the finished floor stays flat and intact.
Our Full Kitchen Remodel Process
Design Consultation and Scope Development
We meet at your home, measure the existing kitchen, and document the current layout. We discuss your goals, material preferences, and budget. From that meeting, we build a detailed scope of work with itemized costs.
Material Selection and Ordering
You select cabinets, countertop slabs, tile, fixtures, and hardware from our supplier network. We place orders with lead times factored into the project schedule so materials arrive before we need them.
Permit Submittal
We submit plans to the local building department and secure the required permits before any work begins. This step protects you legally and ensures the remodel meets current code.
Demolition
Our crew removes existing cabinets, countertops, flooring, and fixtures. We protect adjacent rooms with dust barriers and haul debris off-site.
Rough-In Work
Licensed plumbers and electricians rough in new supply lines, drain lines, and circuits per the approved plans. Framing modifications happen at this stage.
Cabinet and Countertop Installation
We install cabinet boxes, secure them to wall studs, and set the upper and lower runs level. Countertop fabricators template and install slabs after cabinets are set.
Finish Work and Final Inspection
Tile backsplash, trim, hardware, fixtures, and appliances go in last. We schedule the final building inspection and walk through the completed kitchen with you before closing out the project.
Brands We Use
Garrett Construction sources materials from manufacturers known for quality, durability, and consistent availability. For a full kitchen remodel, we regularly work with:
We specify products that meet or exceed manufacturer installation requirements. Every material we install gets set, fastened, and sealed according to the product's technical data sheet to protect your investment and maintain warranty coverage.
