What is included
What Our Kitchen Remodeling Service Covers
Every full kitchen remodel we quote includes the items below. Add-ons like pantry build-outs, under-cabinet lighting, and appliance packages are priced separately so you see the number before you approve it.
Demolition and Haul-Off
We remove old cabinets, counters, flooring, and appliances, then haul everything to the dump. Floors and doorways get protection before we swing a pry bar. Most Bonita Springs demo days finish in one to two days.
Subfloor and Wall Repair
We check the subfloor with a laser level and replace any soft or uneven sections. If there is water damage behind the cabinets, we cut it out, treat for mold, and rebuild before anything new goes in.
Electrical and Plumbing Updates
New dedicated circuits for the microwave, disposal, and dishwasher. Supply lines swapped to PEX or copper. GFCI outlets where code requires them. All permitted and inspected through Lee County.
Cabinet and Countertop Install
Shaker or flat-panel cabinets set level and shimmed. Quartz, granite, or butcher block counters templated on site and installed with seams placed out of sight. Sink and faucet hookup included.
Backsplash and Flooring
Subway tile or ceramic tile backsplash set with a tile cutter for clean edges. Vinyl plank flooring or ceramic tile laid over a properly prepped underlayment. Grout sealed before we leave.
Final Walkthrough and Warranty
We test every outlet and appliance, check for leaks, and walk the kitchen with you. Anything you flag gets fixed before we call the job done. Written warranty on labor and installation.

Service overview
What Kitchen Remodeling in Bonita Springs Actually Involves
Kitchen Remodeling in Bonita Springs is the full tear-out and rebuild of your kitchen: demolition, framing corrections, electrical and plumbing updates, cabinet installation, countertop templating, tile work, and finish carpentry. It is not a cosmetic refresh. We pull the old cabinets, check the wall behind them for water damage, level the subfloor, and run new circuits where the code requires it. Then we set shaker cabinets, drop in quartz countertops, and finish with subway tile or ceramic tile backsplash.
Most Bonita Springs kitchens we open up were built decades ago and never updated. That means outdated electrical wiring that cannot carry a modern appliance load, insufficient storage space, and plumbing fixtures that are one hard winter from failing. If you have been searching for kitchen renovation near me Bonita Springs and getting nothing but showroom tours, we do the actual work. We quote the job, pull the permits, and finish it.
- Storage That Fits Your Life — We measure your pots, pans, and small appliances before we order a single cabinet. A typical Bonita Springs kitchen gains 30 to 40 percent usable storage when we replace 1980s boxes with full-extension KraftMaid or Merillat drawers and add a pantry run where the old broom closet stood.
- Counters That Survive the Heat — Laminate peels in a Florida kitchen. We set quartz countertops from Cambria or Silestone, templated on site, so the seams land where you will never see them. Quartz handles hot pans, citrus, and the humidity that warps butcher block within two seasons.
- Electrical and Plumbing Brought to Code — We run dedicated 20-amp circuits for the microwave, disposal, and dishwasher, and we replace galvanized supply lines with PEX or copper. A licensed Florida State Certified Building Contractor signs off, so your insurance and your inspection both pass the first time.
- A Kitchen You Can Actually Vent — Poor kitchen ventilation is the number one reason Bonita Springs cabinets swell and mold grows under the sink. We duct the range hood to the exterior, not into the attic, and seal every penetration. That single change keeps humidity out of your cabinet boxes year-round.
- Fixed Price, No Change Orders — You get one number before demo starts. If we find water damage behind the cabinets, we show you the photo, explain the fix, and price it before we touch it. No surprise invoices at the end. That is how a professional kitchen remodeling Bonita Springs job should run.
- Permits and Inspections Handled — We pull the electrical, plumbing, and building permits through Lee County and meet the inspector on site. You do not chase paperwork. Most Bonita Springs kitchens pass rough-in inspection on the first visit because we build to the code, not to the minimum.
- Cabinet Brands You Can Walk Into — We install KraftMaid, Merillat, and IKEA cabinet systems, and we source slabs from Cambria, Silestone, and Daltile. You can see the door styles in person before you commit. We also handle kitchen renovation with custom cabinets in Bonita Springs when a stock size will not fit.
- We Answer the Phone — Call +1 619-960-0868 and a person picks up, not a call center. If a cabinet door arrives damaged or a countertop seam needs attention, we schedule the fix that week. Our crews work 24/7 for emergency water issues that come up mid-remodel.
The service timeline
How Our Kitchen Remodeling Process Runs
On-Site Measure
We walk your kitchen, measure every wall, and check the subfloor with a laser level. You get a written scope and a fixed price, not a ballpark. This visit takes about 90 minutes, and we tell you on the spot what is structural and what is cosmetic.
Design and Selections
You pick cabinet door style, countertop slab, backsplash tile, and flooring with our designer. We handle the NKBA Certified Kitchen Designer layout so the work triangle actually works. Allow one to two weeks here, mostly for slab selection and cabinet lead times.
Demo and Rough-In
We protect the floors, pull the old cabinets, and haul everything out. Then the real work starts: correcting the subfloor, running new electrical, and updating plumbing. This stage runs three to five days and it is the dustiest part of the job.
Install and Finish
Cabinets go in first, leveled and shimmed. Then countertop templating, tile setting, and appliance hookup. We use a stud finder and laser level on every upper run so doors align and stay aligned. Expect seven to twelve working days for this stage.
Walkthrough and Warranty
We test every outlet, run the disposal and dishwasher, and check for leaks under the sink. You walk the kitchen with us and flag anything you want adjusted. We hand over the warranty paperwork and come back if anything shifts in the first year.
Tools and methods01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11
Tools and Methods We Use
Laser level
We check the subfloor and set every cabinet run square. A quarter-inch of slope shows up in the doors, and the laser catches it before install.
Stud finder
Locates framing for upper cabinet mounting and range hood ducting. Prevents blowing through a supply line or missing a stud on a heavy upper run.
Tile cutter
Cuts subway tile and ceramic tile for backsplashes and floors. Clean edges mean tight grout lines and no chipped corners at the outlets.
Circular saw and jigsaw
Cuts countertop openings for sinks and cooktops, and trims cabinet panels on site. The jigsaw handles the curved cuts a circular saw cannot reach.
Nail gun and power drill
Fastens cabinet boxes, crown molding, and trim. Speeds up install and gives a tighter fit than hand-nailing on a production schedule.
Caulking gun
Seals the countertop-to-backsplash joint, sink rim, and every penetration. Proper sealing is what keeps Florida humidity out of the cabinet boxes.
Pry bar and sander
Removes old cabinets and counters without tearing up the wall, then smooths patched drywall before paint. Keeps the demo clean and the finish flat.
NARI Certified Remodeler standards
We follow NARI's remodeling standards for sequencing, protection, and cleanup. That means floors get covered before demo, dust barriers go up, and the site is swept at the end of every workday. It is the difference between a job site and a construction zone.
NKBA Certified Kitchen Designer layout
Our designer plans the work triangle between sink, cooktop, and refrigerator using NKBA guidelines. That is how you avoid a kitchen where you walk six steps to reach the trash can. Layout gets locked before cabinets are ordered.
EPA Lead-Safe Certified practices
Homes built before 1978 may have lead paint. We test before demo and use containment and cleanup procedures that meet EPA Lead-Safe requirements. Keeps your family and our crew safe during the tear-out.
Florida building code compliance
Every electrical, plumbing, and structural change is permitted and inspected through Lee County. We build to the Florida Building Code, not to the minimum that passes a visual check. That protects your insurance and your resale.

Local execution
How Kitchen Remodeling Runs in Bonita Springs
Bonita Springs sits in Lee County, and the housing stock here tells you a lot about what a remodel will uncover. Homes built in the 1970s and 1980s off Old 41 and in Spanish Wells often have aluminum branch wiring, cast iron drains, and subfloors that have been wet since the last named storm. We plan for that on every estimate. The Florida humidity is the other factor. A range hood that vents into the attic instead of outside dumps moisture into your ceiling, and cabinets swell within a season. We duct every hood to the exterior and seal the sink base with a caulking gun so humidity stays out of the boxes. Permits go through Lee County, and we meet the inspector on site. If you are comparing kitchen renovation contractor Bonita Springs options, ask whether they pull permits and whether they duct the hood outside. Those two answers tell you most of what you need to know.
Spanish Wells
Older homes with original 1980s kitchens. Expect aluminum wiring and cast iron drains that need updating during the remodel.
Pelican Landing
1990s construction with solid framing but undersized electrical panels. We usually add a subpanel during the rough-in stage.
Bonita Bay
Larger kitchens where layout matters most. We plan the work triangle with NKBA guidelines before ordering cabinets.
Old 41 corridor
Mixed-age housing stock. We test for lead paint on pre-1978 homes and follow EPA Lead-Safe procedures during demo.
High humidity year-round
Cabinet boxes swell and mold grows under sinks if the range hood vents into the attic. We duct every hood outside and seal the sink base to keep moisture out.
Older housing stock with aluminum wiring
Aluminum branch circuits run hot under modern appliance loads. We replace them with copper and add dedicated 20-amp circuits for each major appliance.
Hurricane-season moisture intrusion
Water gets in around windows and behind cabinets during named storms. We check for water damage behind every cabinet we pull and repair before new install.
Before and after
What a successful service visit changes.
1985 Spanish Wells Kitchen Gut Remodel
Before
Original oak cabinets with water-swollen bases, laminate counters peeling at the seams, one outlet per wall, and a range hood that vented into the attic. The subfloor was soft in two spots near the sink.
After
Full gut remodel with KraftMaid shaker cabinets, Cambria quartz counters, subway tile backsplash, and vinyl plank flooring. New dedicated circuits for every appliance, hood ducted outside, subfloor replaced. Six weeks start to finish.
Maintenance: Wipe quartz with a damp cloth and mild soap. Re-caulk the sink rim every two years. Check under the sink for drips each season and tighten supply fittings if you see moisture.
Pelican Landing Refacing and Counter Swap
Before
Solid 1990s cabinet frames but dated oak doors, worn laminate counters, and a backsplash that had started to lift behind the cooktop. The layout worked fine and the homeowner did not want a full gut.
After
New shaker doors and drawer fronts over the existing boxes, Silestone quartz counters, and ceramic tile backsplash. Finished in six working days at roughly half the cost of full replacement.
Maintenance: Tighten door hinges twice a year. Clean quartz with a non-abrasive pad. Re-seal the tile grout annually to keep it from staining.
Bonita Bay Custom Pantry and Cabinet Run
Before
A 1990s kitchen with a broom closet where a pantry should have been, insufficient storage space for a family of five, and cabinet doors that had gone out of alignment from a settling subfloor.
After
Custom pantry build-out where the closet stood, new full-extension drawer banks, and a leveled cabinet run with aligned doors. Storage increased by roughly 40 percent. Four weeks total.
Maintenance: Do not overload upper drawers past the rated weight. Check the pantry shelves for level once a year. Lubricate drawer slides with a dry silicone spray, not oil.
Problems we solve
Kitchen Problems We Fix in Bonita Springs
Most of the calls we get start with one of these. Each one gets worse if you wait.
Water damage behind cabinets and under the sink
Wet cabinet boxes swell, delaminate, and grow mold within weeks. The damage spreads into drywall and subfloor, and the repair cost triples once the framing is wet. We pull the affected cabinets, cut out the wet drywall and subfloor, treat for mold, and rebuild with moisture-resistant materials. Then we find the leak source, whether it is a failed supply line or a bad disposal flange, and fix it before the new cabinets go in.
Outdated electrical wiring that cannot carry the load
Aluminum wiring and undersized circuits trip breakers, run hot, and fail inspection. You cannot run the microwave and the toaster at the same time without killing the circuit. We run dedicated 20-amp circuits for each major appliance and replace aluminum branch wiring with copper where it feeds the kitchen. All work is permitted and inspected. Your insurance stays valid and the kitchen handles a modern appliance load.
Poor kitchen ventilation and humidity buildup
A range hood that vents into the attic dumps moisture and grease into your ceiling. Cabinets swell, paint peels, and mold grows in the cabinet boxes within a season. We duct the range hood to the exterior through the wall or roof, seal every penetration, and size the fan to your cooktop. That single fix keeps humidity out of the cabinets and stops the grease film that coats everything.
Uneven subfloor and cabinet door misalignment
A subfloor that is out of level by a quarter inch makes every cabinet run look crooked. Doors rub, drawers stick, and no amount of hinge adjustment fixes it. We check the floor with a laser level before ordering cabinets, then level and shim every run during install. If the subfloor needs repair, we do it during the rough-in stage so the finished kitchen sits square.
Pricing and expectations
Kitchen Remodeling Pricing in Bonita Springs
$9,000 - $75,000 depending on scope
Typical 2026 pricing in this area runs $28,000 to $75,000 for a full kitchen remodel, and $9,000 to $18,000 for a refacing and counter refresh. The number moves with cabinet line, countertop material, and whether we move plumbing or walls. We give you a fixed written price after the on-site measure, so you are not guessing. If you want affordable kitchen remodeling Bonita Springs FL without cutting corners on the parts you cannot see, we will show you where to spend and where to save.
The price covers permitted, inspected work and a written warranty on labor. You are not paying for a showroom or a call center. You are paying for a crew that fixes what is behind the wall before it becomes a bigger problem.
Cabinet line and door style
Stock KraftMaid or Merillat boxes cost less than full custom. Shaker doors sit in the middle. Custom sizes and finishes add 20 to 40 percent to the cabinet line item.
Countertop material
Quartz from Cambria or Silestone runs more than granite per square foot, but it needs no sealing. Butcher block is the cheapest option and the worst fit for a Florida kitchen because it warps in humidity.
Layout changes
Moving the sink, range, or refrigerator means new plumbing and electrical runs. That adds labor and permit scope. Keeping the layout in place saves thousands.
Electrical and plumbing condition
Aluminum wiring, cast iron drains, and undersized panels all need updating during the remodel. We price that upfront after the walkthrough, not as a surprise change order.
Flooring and backsplash scope
Vinyl plank flooring is the budget pick. Ceramic tile costs more in material and labor. Backsplash square footage and tile pattern both move the number.
Appliance package
Stainless steel appliance packages range widely. We install what you buy and handle the hookup, or we can source through Home Depot or Lowe's and roll it into the quote.

Reviews From Bonita Springs Kitchens
Maria G.Homeowner, Spanish Wells
Our 1985 kitchen had water damage behind every base cabinet and we did not know it. The crew pulled the old boxes, replaced the wet drywall, and ran new circuits before installing the new cabinets. Quartz counters went in with seams I cannot find. Six weeks start to finish, and they hit the schedule they gave us.
Dave R.Homeowner, Pelican Landing
We got three quotes for kitchen renovation in Bonita Springs FL and these guys were the only ones who put the price in writing before demo. They found aluminum wiring and fixed it without turning it into a change-order fight. The range hood now vents outside, which made a real difference in the humidity.
Karen T.Homeowner, Bonita Bay
I wanted custom cabinets and a pantry run where the old closet was. They measured my pans before ordering, which sounds small but the drawers actually fit everything. Tile work is clean, grout lines are straight, and they came back once to adjust a door hinge at no charge. Would use them again.
How much does kitchen remodeling cost in Bonita Springs FL?
A mid-range full kitchen remodel in Bonita Springs runs $28,000 to $75,000 in 2026, depending on cabinet line, countertop material, and whether we move plumbing. A cosmetic refresh with cabinet refacing and new counters lands between $9,000 and $18,000. Structural changes, new flooring, and appliance packages push the number higher. We give you a fixed written price after the on-site measure.
What is included in a full kitchen renovation in Bonita Springs?
A full kitchen renovation includes demolition, subfloor repair, new electrical circuits, updated plumbing, cabinet installation, countertop templating and install, backsplash tile, flooring, appliance hookup, and paint. We pull all permits and handle inspections. Add-ons like pantry build-outs, under-cabinet lighting, and range hood ducting are quoted separately so you see the cost before you approve.
Who is the best kitchen remodel contractor in Bonita Springs?
The right contractor holds a Florida State Certified Building Contractor license, pulls permits in Lee County, and gives you a fixed price before demo. Ask to see the license, the insurance certificate, and a recent local job. We provide all three, plus references from kitchens we finished in 33931 and 34135. Call +1 619-960-0868 and we will walk you through it.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Bonita Springs?
Most full kitchen remodels take four to eight weeks from demo to final walkthrough. Cabinet lead times drive the schedule more than labor does, and KraftMaid or Merillat orders can run three to five weeks. A refacing job finishes in five to seven days. We give you a written schedule at contract signing and update you every Friday on where we stand.
