You’re not just getting new cabinets. You’re getting a kitchen that flows better when you’re cooking for six people on a Tuesday night. More counter space where you actually need it. Storage that makes sense for how you really use the room.
The layout stops fighting you. Appliances go where they should’ve been from the start. Lighting that works for prep, cooking, and cleanup.
Your home value goes up, sure. But what matters more is that you stop working around a kitchen that doesn’t fit your life anymore. You get a space designed for how you cook, how you entertain, and how your family actually uses the room every single day.
We’ve been handling kitchen remodels and home renovations across Nassau and Suffolk Counties since 1972. That’s over 40 years of first-floor renovations, extensions, and full kitchen overhauls in homes just like yours.
We’re licensed, insured, and we carry a $1 million policy because this work matters. Most of our jobs come from referrals—homeowners who’ve used us once and called us back three or four more times. That doesn’t happen by accident.
Plainview homeowners know what they’re looking for. You want someone who shows up, communicates clearly, and doesn’t leave your house looking like a disaster zone at the end of each day. We answer our phones. We respond to texts. And if something goes wrong—frozen pipes, emergency repairs—we handle it.
First, we walk through your kitchen and talk about what’s not working. You tell us what you need—more storage, better flow, updated appliances, whatever it is. We take measurements, discuss your budget, and give you a clear estimate with no surprises buried in the fine print.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle the permits if needed. Many of our projects don’t require them, which speeds things up. We coordinate our crews, order materials, and set a realistic timeline based on the scope of your kitchen renovation.
During the job, we keep the work area as clean as possible. Our crews are professional—they’re not blasting music or leaving debris all over your driveway. You’ll know what’s happening each day, and if something changes, we tell you immediately.
When the work’s done, you get a kitchen that’s built right. Cabinets that close properly. Countertops that are level. Electrical and plumbing that pass inspection. We don’t leave until it’s finished the way it should be.

A full kitchen remodel covers everything from demolition to the final coat of paint. We handle cabinetry installation, countertop fabrication and installation, flooring, backsplash tile work, and all electrical and plumbing updates. If you’re changing the layout, we take care of moving walls, relocating appliances, and making sure everything meets code.
In Plainview and across Nassau County, kitchen projects often involve older homes with outdated wiring or plumbing that needs upgrading. We handle that as part of the job. You’re not calling three different contractors to coordinate—we manage it all with our network of licensed tradespeople.
Most of our Plainview clients are investing $50,000 or more in their kitchen renovation. At that level, you’re looking at custom cabinetry, quality countertops like quartz or granite, new appliances, and updated lighting. The work takes several weeks depending on the size of your kitchen and how much you’re changing.
Long Island homeowners are dealing with higher material costs right now—lumber, cabinets, and labor have all gone up. We price everything upfront so you know what you’re spending before we start. No hidden fees, no surprise change orders unless you decide to add something mid-project.
Most full kitchen remodels take four to eight weeks, depending on the size of your kitchen and how much you’re changing. If you’re keeping the same layout and just updating cabinets, countertops, and appliances, you’re looking at the shorter end. If you’re moving walls, relocating plumbing, or adding square footage, it takes longer.
Permit timelines can add a week or two in Nassau County, though many of our projects don’t require permits. Weather can also slow things down—Long Island winters mean we’re sometimes dealing with frozen ground if we’re doing foundation work for an extension.
The key is setting a realistic timeline upfront. We don’t rush jobs to hit an arbitrary deadline. You want the work done right, and that takes the time it takes. We’ll give you a schedule based on your specific project, and we’ll keep you updated if anything changes.
For a full kitchen remodel in Plainview, most homeowners are spending between $50,000 and $75,000. That covers new cabinetry, countertops, flooring, backsplash, appliances, and updated electrical and plumbing. Smaller kitchens or more modest updates might come in around $46,000. Larger kitchens with high-end finishes can go well above $75,000.
Nassau County home values are high—median prices are around $775,000—so homeowners here tend to invest more in their kitchens. You’re not putting builder-grade materials in a $700,000 home. You want quality that matches the rest of the house and adds real value.
Material costs have gone up across the board. Cabinets, countertops, and labor all cost more than they did a few years ago. We price everything transparently so you know exactly where your money is going. If budget is tight, we can phase the work—do the major construction now and finish with appliances or other elements later.
It depends on what you’re doing. If you’re just replacing cabinets, countertops, and appliances without moving plumbing or electrical, you typically don’t need a permit. If you’re relocating a sink, moving a gas line, or doing any structural work like removing a wall, you’ll need permits from the Town of Oyster Bay or Nassau County.
Permit fees in Nassau County range from $300 to $1,500 depending on the scope of work. The process adds time—usually one to three weeks for approval. We handle all the permit applications and inspections if your project requires them.
Many of our clients prefer projects that don’t require permits because it’s faster and less expensive. We’ll tell you upfront whether your kitchen renovation needs permits based on what you’re planning. If it does, we take care of it. If it doesn’t, we move forward without the extra paperwork and delays.
Yes, for most of the project. Once we start demolition, your kitchen isn’t functional. You won’t have a working sink, stove, or countertop space for several weeks. Most homeowners set up a temporary kitchen in another room—microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, and paper plates.
We try to get plumbing and electrical roughed in as quickly as possible so we can move to the next phase. The goal is to minimize the time you’re completely without a kitchen, but there’s no way around it—a full remodel means tearing things apart before we can put them back together.
If you’re doing a phased project, we can sometimes keep part of the kitchen functional while we work on another section. That’s not always possible depending on the layout, but we’ll discuss options during the planning phase. The key is setting realistic expectations upfront so you’re not caught off guard by how disruptive the process is.
If your layout works and you just hate how it looks, replacing cabinets and countertops might be enough. You’ll spend less—probably $20,000 to $35,000—and the job takes two to three weeks instead of two months. You get a fresh look without the disruption of a full remodel.
But if your kitchen doesn’t function well, new cabinets won’t fix it. If you’re constantly running into each other while cooking, if you don’t have enough counter space, or if the sink is in a terrible spot, you need to change the layout. That’s a full remodel.
Most of our Plainview clients end up doing full remodels because their kitchens are 20 or 30 years old and the layout doesn’t work for how people cook now. Open floor plans, bigger islands, more storage—those require structural changes, not just cosmetic updates. We’ll walk through your space and tell you honestly what makes sense for your situation and budget.
First, make sure they’re licensed and insured. In New York, you want a contractor with an active license and at least $1 million in liability coverage. Don’t hire someone who can’t prove both. If something goes wrong and they’re not insured, you’re liable.
Second, check how they communicate. Do they answer the phone? Do they respond to texts and emails? A contractor who’s hard to reach before you hire them will be impossible to reach once the job starts. You want someone who keeps you informed and doesn’t disappear for days at a time.
Third, ask about their process for handling problems. Things go wrong on every job—delayed materials, unexpected issues behind walls, weather delays. How do they handle it? Do they call you immediately or try to hide it? You want a contractor who’s upfront about problems and works with you to solve them, not someone who makes excuses or blames everyone else.
