Kitchen Remodeling Services We Offer

Custom Kitchen Design

Our award-winning design process starts with understanding how you use your kitchen and your aesthetic preferences. Whether planning a complete kitchen remodel or updating specific elements, our certified designers create customized plans that maximize both beauty and functionality for any space. We specialize in Chicago’s diverse architectural styles—from Gold Coast vintage to River North contemporary—ensuring your new kitchen complements your home’s character.

Our 3D design technology lets you visualize your Chicago kitchen transformation before construction begins, and our partnerships with the Merchandise Mart’s premier showrooms give you exclusive access to the latest materials and fixtures. Every design accounts for Chicago’s building codes, condo regulations, and the unique challenges of urban living.

Small Kitchen Remodel Experts

Chicago’s urban density means 60% of our projects involve small kitchen remodels. Limited space doesn’t mean limited potential. Our small kitchen remodel specialists excel at maximizing functionality in compact spaces. We use clever storage solutions, space-saving fixtures, and strategic layouts to make small kitchens feel spacious and work efficiently.

Our designers are experts at:

  • Incorporating multi-functional islands that serve as prep, dining, and storage
  • Creating visual expansiveness with light colors and strategic mirror placement to combat Chicago’s gray winters
  • Maximizing vertical storage with ceiling-height cabinetry
  • Installing space-saving appliances perfect for condo living
  • Opening walls (where structurally possible) to create great rooms

Flooring Installation

Kitchen flooring needs to withstand heavy traffic, potential spills, and temperature changes while contributing to your kitchen’s overall design. Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles, humid summers, and winter salt tracking demand flooring that performs. We install a variety of flooring options suitable for Chicago kitchens:

  • Ceramic or porcelain tile: Durable, water-resistant, and available in countless styles—perfect for Chicago’s temperature swings
  • Luxury vinyl plank: Affordable, waterproof, and comfortable underfoot during long Chicago winters
  • Hardwood: Traditional beauty matching Chicago’s historic homes, sealed against humidity
  • Engineered wood: The look of hardwood with greater stability for Chicago’s climate
  • Natural stone: Distinctive, long-lasting elegance that complements Chicago’s limestone architecture

Our installation experts ensure proper preparation of the subfloor and professional installation techniques for a beautiful, long-lasting result that stands up to Chicago’s seasonal changes. We include moisture barriers, proper expansion gaps, and transitions that accommodate seasonal movement—details that prevent costly failures.

The Kitchen Remodel Process

Our streamlined approach makes remodeling stress-free while respecting Chicago’s permit requirements and building schedules:

  1. Consultation: We discuss your vision, needs, and budget during a free in-home consultation, evaluating structural possibilities and code requirements specific to your Chicago property
  2. Design: Our team creates detailed 3D plans tailored to your requirements, incorporating Chicago building codes and condo board specifications
