You’re fighting for counter space every time you cook. Cabinets are falling apart. The layout hasn’t made sense since the day you moved in, and now you’re hosting Thanksgiving in three months.
A proper kitchen remodel fixes the stuff that’s been driving you crazy for years. More storage where you actually need it. Countertops that can handle real meal prep. Appliances that don’t trip your breaker every time you run the dishwasher and microwave at once.
Most homes in East Williston were built in the 1950s and 60s. The electrical systems weren’t designed for how you live now. A kitchen renovation isn’t just about new cabinets – it’s about updating the bones of your home so everything works the way it should. Better lighting. Proper ventilation. Outlets where you need them.
You’ll stop working around your kitchen and start using it the way you want to.
We handle large-scale kitchen remodels across Nassau County. We’ve been doing this for over 50 years – kitchens, bathrooms, first-floor renovations, the works.
Here’s what makes us different: Ray’s on the job site every day. Not just managing – actually working. You call, we answer. You text, we respond. One customer had a frozen pipe at 3 a.m. and Ray showed up. That’s not marketing talk – that’s how we operate.
We keep job sites clean. Our crews are professional. We set a timeline and we hit it. East Williston homeowners don’t have time for contractors who disappear for days or leave your house looking like a disaster zone. We don’t do that.
First, we walk through your kitchen and talk about what’s not working. You show us the problems, we take measurements, and we discuss what you’re trying to accomplish. No pressure, no upselling – just a real conversation about your space.
Then we put together a plan and a budget. We’re clear about timelines upfront because most kitchen remodels take five to seven months from start to finish. You’ll know what to expect before we start tearing anything out.
During construction, Ray’s there daily. We protect the rest of your home, keep the work area clean, and leave the job site neat at the end of every day. You’re living in your house during this – we get that.
We handle everything: demolition, electrical upgrades, plumbing, cabinetry, countertops, flooring, lighting. You’re not coordinating five different contractors. It’s all us, start to finish.
When we’re done, you’ve got a kitchen that works. And if something comes up after we’re finished, you can still reach us.

We’re general contractors, so we handle the full scope: structural changes, electrical upgrades, plumbing relocation, new cabinets, countertops, backsplash, flooring, and lighting. If your kitchen needs it, we do it.
East Williston homes often need electrical work. Many houses here were built when kitchens had a fraction of the appliances you’re running now. We upgrade panels, add circuits, and install outlets where you actually need them – not just where they were in 1955.
Layout changes are common too. Knocking out a wall to open up the space. Adding an island. Reconfiguring the work triangle so you’re not walking in circles every time you make dinner. We’ve done enough kitchens to know what works and what doesn’t.
The average kitchen remodel in the New York metro area runs around $75,000 for a mid-range project. Upscale renovations can exceed $150,000. We work within your budget and we’re upfront about costs. No surprises halfway through the job.
Most homeowners start thinking about kitchen projects in the first quarter of the year, right after the holidays. If that’s you, now’s the time to get on the schedule.
Most kitchen remodels take five to seven months from the day you sign the contract to the day you’re cooking in your new space. That includes design, ordering materials, permits if needed, demolition, construction, and installation.
The timeline depends on the scope. If you’re just swapping cabinets and countertops, it’s faster. If you’re moving walls, upgrading electrical, relocating plumbing, and changing the layout, it takes longer.
We set the timeline upfront and stick to it. Ray manages the schedule so you’re not waiting weeks between phases. We’ve completed jobs exactly on the day we said we would – not an estimate, the actual day.
Scope creep. You start with a plan to replace countertops and cabinets, then you decide to move a wall. Then you want to upgrade the flooring. Then the electrical panel needs work to handle the new appliances. Each addition increases the budget.
That’s why we talk through everything upfront. We ask questions about how you use your kitchen, what’s frustrating you, and what you’re hoping to accomplish. It’s better to plan for the full scope from the beginning than to add things midway through construction.
The other cost driver is structural surprises – outdated wiring, plumbing issues, or framing problems you can’t see until walls are open. We can’t predict every surprise, but we’ve remodeled enough Long Island homes to know what to look for. We’ll flag potential issues during the walkthrough so you’re not blindsided later.
It depends on what you’re doing. If you’re replacing cabinets, countertops, and appliances without moving plumbing or electrical, you usually don’t need a permit. If you’re relocating walls, adding circuits, moving gas lines, or changing the footprint, you probably do.
We prefer jobs that don’t require permits because they move faster and cost less. But if your project needs one, we handle it. We’re licensed, insured, and bonded in Nassau County, and we know the local requirements.
Permits add time – sometimes weeks – depending on how backed up the building department is. They also add inspection requirements, which means scheduling around the inspector’s availability. We’ll tell you upfront whether your project needs a permit and what that means for your timeline and budget.
We’re at your house during normal business hours, and we coordinate with you on access and timing. If you need us to avoid certain days or times, we work that out upfront.
We keep the job site as clean as possible and leave it neat every day. You’re still living in your home during construction, so we protect floors, seal off work areas to minimize dust, and don’t leave tools and materials scattered everywhere.
You’ll have access to Ray throughout the project – phone, text, whatever works for you. If something comes up or you have a question, you’re not waiting days for a callback. We answer.
Changes happen. You see the space coming together and realize you want a different backsplash or an extra outlet. We can handle that.
The key is timing. Changes early in the process are easier and cheaper. Changes after materials are ordered or work is done mean delays and additional costs. We’ll tell you exactly what a change will cost and how it affects the timeline before you decide.
We’d rather you get the kitchen you want than rush through and regret it later. But we’re also not going to let scope creep turn a three-month project into a nine-month disaster. We keep things on track while still giving you flexibility where it makes sense.
We’ve been doing this for over 50 years. We’re licensed, insured, and bonded in Nassau County. We have customers who’ve called us back for second and third projects because we finished the first one right.
Ray’s on-site daily. You’re not dealing with a contractor who shows up once a week to “check on things.” He’s there working, managing the crew, and making sure everything’s done correctly.
We also offer warranties on our work. If something’s not right, we fix it. And we don’t disappear after the final payment – customers have called us years later for small issues or emergency repairs, and we’ve shown up. That’s how we operate.
