Our Kitchen Remodeling Process in Arlington

1

Initial Consultation and Design

We meet at your home to discuss your vision, needs, and budget. We'll take measurements, assess your existing space, and talk about your lifestyle and design preferences. Together we'll explore layout options, material choices, and functional improvements.

2

Detailed Planning and Selections

Our team creates detailed plans and 3D renderings so you can visualize your new kitchen. We'll visit showrooms together to select cabinetry, countertops, flooring, fixtures, and finishes. Once everything is finalized, we'll provide a comprehensive quote and project timeline.

3

Preparation and Demolition

We protect your home with dust barriers and floor coverings before carefully removing existing cabinetry, countertops, and fixtures. Any necessary structural modifications, plumbing relocations, or electrical updates are completed during this phase.

Construction and Installation

Our skilled craftsmen install new cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, flooring, and lighting. We coordinate all the trades including electricians, plumbers, and specialty installers. Throughout construction, we maintain a clean workspace and communicate progress regularly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kitchen Remodeling in Arlington: Your Questions Answered

With Arlington's median home prices over $1M, most homeowners invest $85,000 to $175,000 in their kitchen remodel. A quality mid-range project—semi-custom cabinets, quartz counters, stainless appliances, new lighting—runs $90-110k. High-end kitchens with custom cabinetry, premium stone counters, and structural changes to open up the layout push $130k and up. We provide itemized estimates showing exactly where your money goes. No vague "allowances" or surprise charges later.
Most Arlington kitchen projects take 10-12 weeks from demolition to finished space. Week one is demo and rough carpentry. Weeks two through four cover electrical, plumbing, and any structural work. Cabinets install around week five, followed by countertops, backsplash, and trim work. We build realistic schedules accounting for permit inspections and material lead times. Massachusetts winters can slow things down, so we're honest about timing rather than promising impossible deadlines.
Cabinets eat up 30-40% of your budget—they're the single biggest expense. Quality semi-custom cabinets for an average Arlington kitchen run $18-25k. Custom cabinets that fit odd corners perfectly and match your exact style push $30-40k. Countertops come next, especially quartzite or marble. High-end appliance packages (Wolf range, Sub-Zero fridge) can hit $20k. We help you decide where to spend and where you can save without compromising quality.
Yes, most Arlington families stay put during their kitchen project. We set up a temporary kitchen space—folding table, microwave, coffee maker, mini fridge—usually in your dining room or basement. The first two weeks are the loudest and dustiest, but we use plastic barriers to contain mess and vacuum daily. You'll lean on paper plates and takeout more than usual, but you avoid the hassle and cost of temporary housing. It's doable for 10-12 weeks.
Yes, we manage all permits through Arlington's Inspectional Services. Kitchen remodels need building, electrical, and plumbing permits at minimum. We submit the applications through Arlington's online portal, schedule inspections, and handle any questions from inspectors. We've worked with this department enough to know their requirements and timelines. You won't spend your lunch break on hold with Town Hall or making trips to 51 Grove Street—we handle it.
Arlington's housing stock is all over the map—Victorian homes in Jason Heights, Cape Cods in Arlington Center, ranches near Spy Pond. There's no single "right" style. Transitional kitchens work well because they blend with almost any architecture—clean lines without feeling cold or sterile. White or light gray Shaker cabinets remain the most popular choice. Homes in East Arlington near Mass Ave often lean more contemporary, while the historic properties might call for something more traditional. We match the kitchen to your house and how you actually use the space.
Depends on your home's layout and how you cook. Many Arlington colonials and Cape Cods have small, closed-off kitchens. Opening to the dining room creates better flow and makes the space feel bigger. But removing a wall means losing upper cabinets and storage. If you're serious cooks who need counter space and storage, keeping some walls makes sense. We'll walk through your current layout and talk through the tradeoffs before you commit to major structural changes.
