Built for Tampa Homes, Not a National Template
Remodeling in Tampa has its own quirks. Hyde Park bungalows hide galley kitchens behind load bearing walls. Homes on Davis Islands and along Bayshore need materials that hold up to salt air and humidity. A lot of Carrollwood and Westchase houses from the 80s and 90s still have soffits and closed floor plans that are begging to be opened up. We work in these neighborhoods every month, and we manage Hillsborough County permits and inspections on every job, so the work is done right and fully documented.

A Recent Tampa Project
In Hyde Park, a young family was living with a cramped, outdated kitchen and almost no counter space. We opened a wall to connect the kitchen to the living area, installed warm white shaker cabinets, a matte black faucet, and a 10 foot quartz island. The result is a bright kitchen built for hosting, finished on schedule.

Most full kitchen remodels in Tampa run $30,000 to $45,000. Smaller refreshes start around $15,000. Large, high end kitchens reach $80,000 or more. Cabinetry and layout changes are the biggest cost drivers.

Yes. Any project that moves plumbing, electrical, or walls requires Hillsborough County permits. We pull and manage every permit for you. It is included in the project.

Almost all of our clients do. We set up dust barriers, schedule water and power interruptions ahead of time and keep them short, and we leave the site clean every day.
