Palatine Kitchen Remodeling — What We Actually See in These Homes

Palatine has a median home value of $465,000 and a housing stock that is major residential development from the 1960s through the 1980s, with pockets of newer construction toward the north end of the village. Palatine has a high concentration of ranch homes with load-bearing walls between the kitchen and living areas. We regularly assess these walls during free estimates throughout Palatine — the structural cost of removing them is almost always justified by the change in how the main floor functions. Kitchens that once felt closed off become the center of the home.

Every kitchen project starts with a full written estimate before a single cabinet is ordered. Cabinet lead times are built into the project schedule so they arrive when demo and rough-in are complete. You know what you are getting, what it costs, and when it is done before we start.

Our pricing includes both labor and mid-range finish materials. Premium selections — full custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, designer backsplash — are shown as line items so you decide exactly what to include.
