Local expertise meets coastal durability for Cherry Grove homeowners ready to love their kitchen again.
You know what it’s like living with a kitchen that doesn’t work for you. Cramped counters when you’re trying to prep dinner for guests. Cabinets that stick from the salt air. Storage that makes no sense for how you actually cook and live.
A proper kitchen renovation changes everything. You get space that flows when you’re entertaining. Cabinets and hardware built to handle Fire Island’s coastal conditions without warping or corroding. Storage designed around how you actually use your kitchen, not some generic layout.
The right contractor understands Cherry Grove’s unique challenges. Salt air destroys standard materials. Ferry logistics affect material delivery. Local codes have specific requirements. When it’s done right, you get years of reliability instead of constant repairs and replacements.
Rich’s Construction has been handling Cherry Grove kitchen remodeling for years. We understand what works in coastal environments and what doesn’t.
We know the ferry schedules, the local suppliers, and the permitting process. More importantly, we know which materials hold up to salt air and humidity, and which ones will have you calling for repairs within two years.
Our team lives and works on Fire Island. We’re not mainland contractors trying to figure out island logistics on your dime. We’re here year-round, handling everything from emergency storm repairs to full kitchen makeovers.
We start with an honest assessment of your current kitchen and what you want to achieve. No sales pitch, just a real conversation about your space, timeline, and budget.
Once we agree on the scope, we handle permitting and material ordering. We coordinate ferry deliveries and work around your schedule, especially if you’re seasonal residents. Our local supplier relationships mean materials arrive when promised, not weeks late.
During construction, we protect your home and keep disruption minimal. Daily cleanup is standard. We communicate regularly about progress and any issues that come up. Most kitchen renovations take 3-4 weeks, depending on scope and any structural surprises we uncover.

Every kitchen renovation includes design consultation, permitting, demolition, and complete installation. We handle electrical, plumbing, flooring, cabinetry, countertops, and finishing work.
We use coastal-grade materials specifically chosen for Fire Island conditions. Stainless steel hardware that won’t corrode. Moisture-resistant cabinetry that won’t warp. Flooring that handles sand and salt water tracked in from the beach.
Our work includes proper ventilation systems crucial for coastal kitchens, upgraded electrical to handle modern appliances, and plumbing that accounts for seasonal use patterns. Everything comes with warranties that cover coastal weather exposure, not just normal wear and tear.
