Kitchen remodels in Fort Worth

A kitchen that finally works the way you cook

When one company designs a kitchen and another builds it, the budget and the details often get lost between them. We design, draw, and build your kitchen ourselves, so the plan you approve is the plan that gets built.

The real problem

You don’t need a bigger kitchen. You need one that stops fighting you

The cramped corner. The island you can’t walk around. The layout that made sense in 1962. The hard part was never picking a tile — it’s knowing whether the wall can come down, what it really costs, and who’s accountable when the designer’s vision meets the contractor’s bid.

That’s the gap we close. The people who draw your kitchen and the people who build it are the same team, in the same meeting, on the same budget.

Design-build

What you get when the same company designs and builds your kitchen

01

One company from design to build

Design, drafting, and construction in-house — no handoffs, no finger-pointing, no “that’s not our scope.”

02

Designers who know construction

Ours don’t spec the beautiful thing that can’t actually get built or blows the budget. Real options, real prices.

03

The layout, solved first

We open walls, move plumbing, and reconfigure the floor plan — not just swap finishes on a layout that never worked.

04

A price you can plan around

Cost-plus billing with a transparent markup. You see what things actually cost.

Design-build vs. hiring separately

Hiring a designer and a contractor separately is where kitchen remodels go wrong

The old way

Two companies, and you’re in the middle

A designer draws your dream kitchen, hands you a rendering, and walks. Then a contractor bids it, tells you half of it isn’t feasible, and you’re the one stuck translating between them — carrying every gap in the budget on your back.

Design-build

One budget and one price, from design through construction

The people who draw it and the people who build it sit at the same table, accountable to the same number. Fewer surprises. One point of contact. A plan that survives contact with reality.

What’s included

What a Fort Worth kitchen remodel actually touches

The island

The heart of the room. We rework the whole layout around how you actually cook and gather, not around where the plumbing happened to land in 1962.

The range wall & storage

Cabinets, pantry, prep zones, and the appliances that make the room work — drawn by the people who’ll build it, so it fits the first time.

The extras

A butler’s pantry, a coffee station, a bar off the kitchen — the extras that make the kitchen the room everyone gathers in.

Resale value

We can tell you how much a kitchen adds to resale on your street

A well-done kitchen is one of the highest-return rooms in a house. It’s also one of the easiest to overspend on for the block you’re standing on. We’re a brokerage as well as a builder, so that question gets a straight answer while the money is still yours.

01

What your street will support

Every street has a price ceiling, and it isn’t the same in Tanglewood as in Fairmount. We’ll tell you the point where spending more won’t pay off when you sell.

02

What you get back when you sell, and what’s just for you

Some of a kitchen budget is resale and some of it is purely because you want it. Both are fine — it’s worth knowing which is which before you spend it.

03

Whether you’re staying or selling

A kitchen you’ll cook in for fifteen years and a kitchen going in ahead of a listing are two different scopes. We’d rather know now than guess.

Our process

How a kitchen remodel works, in three steps

01

Meet Up

We walk your kitchen, listen to how your family actually lives in it, and talk honestly about budget before anyone draws a line.

02

Team Up

Our designer and drafting team put a real plan on paper — layout, selections, and a number you can build around.

03

Glasses Up

We build it, keep you in the loop, and hand back a kitchen that feels like you. (Pour something good. You earned it.)

Cost

What a Fort Worth kitchen remodel actually costs

$55,000–$175,000

the same footprint with everything new at the low end, walls out and the plan redrawn at the top.

Ranges for a kitchen remodel in Fort Worth, not a quote. Before there are drawings, a range is the only honest number anyone can give you — the spread between a high and a low bid on the same job is routinely 20% or more. We bill cost-plus, so when there is a plan you see the actual materials, labor and subcontractor costs, plus our overhead and profit, rather than a single figure with the unknowns padded into it.

What changes the price

  • Whether a wall comes out. The layout sets the budget more than the finishes do: where the sink lands and whether the range wall can carry a hood are the questions that set the budget, and they get answered before anything is chosen.
  • Cabinetry. Stock, semi-custom and built-in-place are three different projects sharing one word, and this is the single largest line on most kitchens.
  • Appliances, which are a client decision more than ours and can swing the total by tens of thousands without changing a drawing.
  • Whether plumbing and electrical move with the plan. A relocated sink or a new line to an island means work in the floor and at the electrical panel, not just a new fixture.

Questions

Questions about kitchen remodels

Not sure what your kitchen needs?

Walk your kitchen with us. The first conversation is free, and we’ll tell you honestly if a project isn’t worth doing.

The kitchen remodel

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Fort Worth?

There’s no single number — a finishes-and-cabinets refresh and a full gut that moves the sink, range, and a wall are different projects. Yours tracks layout changes, finish level, and size. We bill cost-plus with a transparent markup, so you see real costs and get a number before demo.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

A refresh moves faster than a gut that relocates plumbing and walls. You get a real schedule up front, not a hopeful one.

Can you open the wall between my kitchen and living room?

Usually yes — and because we draft in-house and coordinate the structural engineering, we can tell you early whether it’s load-bearing and what opening it actually takes.

Can we keep using the kitchen during the remodel?

Depends on scope; we’ll set up the project and timeline honestly so you know what to expect, and we’ve done plenty of occupied renovations.

Can you move the sink, range, or add an island?

Yes — relocating plumbing, gas, and electrical to fix the layout is core to what we do, not an add-on we avoid.

Working with 6th Ave

Do you design the kitchen, or just build it?

Both. Our designers know construction, so they won’t spec the beautiful thing that can’t get built or blows the budget.

What does “cost-plus” mean?

You pay the real cost of materials and labor plus a transparent markup — no padded line items, no mystery bid.

Will a kitchen remodel add value when I sell?

A well-done kitchen is one of the highest-return rooms — and because we’re also a brokerage, we can tell you what actually returns in your specific Fort Worth neighborhood before you spend.

Do you handle permits?

Yes — we pull and manage city permits and inspections.

Can you remodel a kitchen in an older or historic home?

Yes — we work in the TCU area, Mistletoe Heights, Ryan Place, and Fairmount constantly, and we know how plaster walls, out-of-square 1920s framing, and historic overlays change the job.
