How long does a typical kitchen remodel take in Huntington?

Most kitchen remodels in the Huntington area take 3-6 weeks, depending on the scope of work. A basic refresh with new cabinets and countertops typically runs 3-4 weeks, while a full gut renovation with layout changes can take 5-6 weeks. The timeline depends on several factors: whether you’re moving plumbing or electrical, if permits are required, and how quickly you make material selections. We provide a detailed timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. Weather can occasionally impact delivery schedules, especially during Long Island winters, but we build buffer time into our estimates. We’d rather under-promise and finish early than leave you without a functioning kitchen longer than expected.
Building permits in Huntington are required for most structural changes, electrical work, plumbing modifications, and additions. Kitchen remodels typically need permits if you’re moving walls, relocating plumbing, or upgrading electrical service. We handle the entire permit process for you—from initial applications through final inspections. Our team knows the local building codes and has established relationships with Huntington’s building department, which helps streamline approvals. Permit costs vary by project scope, but typically range from $200-800 for most residential improvements. We include permit fees in our estimates so there are no surprises. The permit process usually adds 1-2 weeks to project start time, which we factor into our scheduling.
We use plastic sheeting to isolate work areas and prevent dust from spreading throughout your home. All HVAC vents in the work area are sealed, and we run HEPA air scrubbers to capture airborne particles. At the end of each workday, we clean up debris, vacuum dust, and leave the space as tidy as possible. Our crew brings their own dumpster for immediate waste removal—no piles of construction debris sitting in your driveway for weeks. For major projects, we can set up temporary barriers to create a “clean zone” where your family can function normally. While construction is inherently messy, we work hard to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Most clients are surprised by how manageable the process is when dust control is handled properly.
Older homes often reveal surprises once walls are opened—outdated wiring, plumbing that’s not up to code, or structural issues that weren’t visible during initial planning. When this happens, we stop work and discuss options with you immediately. We explain what we found, why it needs to be addressed, and provide cost estimates for different solutions. Nothing gets done without your approval, and we always look for the most cost-effective way to handle unexpected issues. Our 36 years of experience helps us anticipate potential problems during the planning phase, which reduces surprises. When issues do arise, we handle them quickly and transparently—no hidden costs showing up on your final bill.
Yes, we warranty our workmanship for one year from project completion. This covers any issues related to installation or craftsmanship—if something we installed fails or wasn’t done correctly, we’ll fix it at no charge. Material warranties vary by manufacturer, but we help you understand what’s covered and for how long. Most cabinets, appliances, and fixtures come with their own manufacturer warranties that we’ll help you navigate if needed. Our warranty doesn’t cover normal wear and tear or damage from misuse, but it does cover legitimate defects in our work. After 36 years in business, we stand behind everything we do—your satisfaction is what keeps us in business and generates referrals.
We price projects based on materials, labor, permits, and overhead—with no hidden fees or surprise add-ons. After our initial consultation, we provide a detailed written estimate that breaks down all costs by category. Our estimates include a 10-15% contingency for unexpected issues, which is standard practice for renovation work. If we don’t need the full contingency, you don’t pay it. If additional work is required beyond the contingency, we discuss it with you before proceeding. We’re typically competitive with other established contractors in the Huntington area, though we’re not the cheapest option. Quality materials, skilled labor, and proper insurance cost more than corner-cutting alternatives—but they also last longer and cause fewer problems down the road.
