Kitchen Remodeling in Richardson, TX
A kitchen remodel touches layout, plumbing, electrical, cabinets, counters and lighting, so it is priced from a real look at the room.
What to expect
Kitchens in Richardson: what usually matters
Many kitchens from this era have builder-grade oak cabinets, laminate counters and a layout that does not match how people cook today. Updating the electrical for modern appliances and lighting is typical. Some homes built from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s have polybutylene water supply lines, so it is worth checking the plumbing before the walls are closed up again.
The median home in Richardson was built in 1986, so this describes what is common at that age. Your house may differ, and we confirm on site.
What's included
- Open-concept wall removal and beam installation
- Custom and semi-custom cabinetry
- Quartz, granite and solid-surface countertops
- Islands with plumbing and electrical
- Lighting design, tile backsplash and flooring
- Appliance and fixture installation
