What kind of project are you in?

Refresh
Same layout, new surfaces
Cabinets refaced or painted, new counters and backsplash, fresh hardware, updated lighting and fixtures. The bones stay; the look changes completely.
Replace
Same layout, all-new everything
Full demo. New semi-custom or custom cabinetry, new stone counters, new floors, new appliances. Layout stays the same, but every surface is brand new.
Reimagine
New layout — walls come down
Walls relocated or removed, plumbing and gas runs adjusted, often structural beams added. The kitchen ends up somewhere different than it started — usually more open, always more functional.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Richmond Heights, OH?
In Richmond Heights (44143), a kitchen Replace — same layout, all-new semi-custom cabinetry and stone counters — runs $38,000–$68,000. A Reimagine with wall removal and open-concept conversion starts at $74,000. Richmond Heights is our home base — we know the 1950s–1970s split-level and ranch housing stock here better than any contractor in the area, which keeps surprises to a minimum.
What's unique about remodeling kitchens in Richmond Heights?
Richmond Heights split-levels built in the 1960s often have galley kitchens tucked behind a dining room wall that begs to come down. We've done this project many times in 44143 — we know where the structural conditions are, how the plumbing runs, and what permits Cuyahoga County requires. That local knowledge keeps your project closer to schedule and within estimate.
How long does a Richmond Heights kitchen renovation take?
A Replace in Richmond Heights runs 7–10 weeks from demo to punch list. A Reimagine with wall removal runs 10–14 weeks. Both timelines include a written schedule before demo day and weekly photo updates throughout. Curtis is on site every single day — you'll have direct access to him, not a project manager, throughout the build.
What cabinets work best in Richmond Heights mid-century homes?
Shaker-style semi-custom cabinetry in white or warm white (Benjamin Moore White Dove, Chantilly Lace) is the most common choice in Richmond Heights mid-century ranches. For homes with more character — original fir floors, beamed ceilings — we sometimes recommend natural wood cabinetry in white oak or maple to work with the home's existing warmth rather than contrast it.
