Our Services
What Our Kitchen Remodeling Service Includes
Kitchen Layout and Space Planning
A successful remodel starts with the layout. We evaluate your existing floor plan and develop a new configuration that improves workflow, maximizes storage, and creates a more functional cooking and gathering space.
Cabinet Design and Specification
Cabinetry defines the look and storage capacity of a kitchen. We design cabinet layouts, specify door styles, finishes, and hardware, and coordinate with fabricators to ensure a precise fit.
Countertop Selection
We source and specify countertop materials that balance beauty, durability, and maintenance. Quartz, marble, quartzite, granite, and butcher block are all options we work with depending on the design direction and how the kitchen is used.
Backsplash Design
The backsplash is an opportunity to add texture, pattern, and personality to the kitchen. We design backsplash installations that complement the countertops, cabinetry, and overall palette.
Appliance Guidance
We advise on appliance selection, placement, and integration. Built-in refrigerators, professional-grade ranges, integrated dishwashers, and custom panel overlays are all part of the conversation for luxury kitchen projects.
Lighting Design
Kitchen lighting needs to be both functional and atmospheric. We plan task lighting over work surfaces, ambient lighting for the overall space, and accent lighting for display areas. Under-cabinet lighting is standard on every kitchen project we design.
Flooring and Material Coordination
We select flooring that works with the cabinetry, countertops, and backsplash. Material coordination ensures the kitchen feels cohesive, not pieced together. For kitchens that open to the dining room or living room, we plan flooring transitions that feel natural.
Plumbing Fixtures
We specify sinks, faucets, pot fillers, and filtration systems that match the design and support how you cook. Fixture finish is coordinated with cabinet hardware and lighting for a unified look.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Process
Assessment: We evaluate your current kitchen, discuss your goals, and identify what is working and what is not. We review the existing layout, plumbing, electrical, and structural conditions.
Design Development: We create a complete kitchen design, including layout, cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, flooring, lighting, and hardware. Everything is presented with material samples for your review.
Specification and Documentation: We produce detailed drawings and specifications that guide your contractor through every phase of the remodel. Clear documentation reduces errors, delays, and change orders.
Contractor Coordination: We work closely with your general contractor and trades throughout construction. We attend site meetings, answer questions, review progress, and ensure the design is executed as intended.
Final Styling: Once construction is complete, we style the kitchen with accessories, countertop items, and finishing touches that make the space feel polished and move-in ready.

Kitchen Remodeling for Houston Homes
Houston kitchens see heavy use. Between daily cooking, entertaining, and the central role the kitchen plays in open-concept floor plans, this room needs to perform. We design kitchens that stand up to Houston lifestyles while looking refined and intentional.
We also factor in Houston’s climate. High humidity influences material choices for cabinetry and flooring. Strong natural light affects how paint colors and stone surfaces read throughout the day. We select materials that perform well in these conditions year after year.
We serve homeowners throughout River Oaks, Memorial, Tanglewood, West University, Bellaire, The Heights, Katy, Cypress, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Fulshear, and Pearland.
Kitchen remodeling is also a key component of our whole home interior design, custom home interior design, and new construction interior design services.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Houston?
Kitchen remodeling costs vary widely based on the scope, size, and level of finishes. A targeted refresh costs less than a full gut renovation with custom cabinetry and premium stone. We discuss budget expectations during the initial consultation and provide a realistic cost framework for your project.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
Most kitchen remodels take 8 to 16 weeks from demolition to completion, depending on the scope and material lead times. Custom cabinetry and specialty stone can extend the timeline. We provide a detailed project schedule before work begins.
Do you manage the construction, or do I need my own contractor?
We handle the design, specification, and project coordination. You will need a licensed general contractor for the construction work. We are happy to recommend trusted contractors we have worked with throughout Houston.
Can you remodel my kitchen without changing the layout?
Yes. Many remodels involve updating finishes, cabinetry, countertops, lighting, and fixtures within the existing layout. If the current layout works well, we focus on elevating the materials and details.
What is the best countertop material for a Houston kitchen?
It depends on your lifestyle and design preferences. Quartz is durable and low-maintenance. Marble is luxurious but requires more care. Quartzite offers natural beauty with strong performance. We walk you through the options on our kitchen countertop selection page.
Can you help me choose kitchen cabinets?
Absolutely. Cabinet design is one of the most important parts of a kitchen remodel. Visit our kitchen cabinet design page for details on how we approach cabinetry.
