What your kitchen remodel includes

When we do the whole job, you deal with one person: Bill. He designs the kitchen, orders everything, and puts everyone on the same day-by-day calendar for your project.

  • A new kitchen design, drawn on CAD in your home while you talk
  • New cabinets from our mid-range or high-end line, delivered free. See our cabinet options
  • Countertops from two fabricators who bid for your job. How countertops are chosen
  • Installation by our installers, Chase and Matt
  • Old cabinets hauled away the same day they come out. No dumpster in your driveway, so the neighbors will have to find something else to talk about.

How a kitchen remodel works, step by step

There are four steps, and you always know which one you're on.

  1. Free in-home design visit

    Bill spends about 1 hour 15 minutes at your house. He draws the kitchen on CAD while you talk through what you want, then gives you itemized prices on the spot. They're good for one year, so there's no rush to decide.

  2. Storyboard Re-measure

    Once you decide to go ahead, Bill comes back and measures everything a second time. Any final changes get made here, before a single cabinet is ordered.

  3. Cabinets ordered

    With every measurement checked, your cabinets are ordered. Before work starts, you get a day-by-day calendar for your project, so you know who's coming and when.

  4. The remodel

    Work begins once the cabinets are here. Everyone on the job follows your calendar, and most kitchens are done 4-6 weeks from start to finish.

How long a kitchen remodel takes

The clock starts on the first day of work in your kitchen. Everything before that is planning.

Planning comes first

Design visit, re-measure and cabinet order. Nothing in your kitchen changes yet.

4-6 weeks

Your kitchen is remodeled, start to finish, following your day-by-day calendar.

  • No waiting list. Your start date depends only on when you order.
  • One calendar. Every day of the job is planned before it begins.

Remodel with us, or just buy the cabinets

We do it all

Design, cabinets, countertops, installation and hauling away the old cabinets. You follow one calendar and call one number.

Your contractor installs

Buy your cabinets from us and hand them to your own contractor. We check every order line by line, price match equal cabinets, and Bill meets your installer to go over the layout.

Our installer, your contractor

Buy the cabinets and have our installer put them in, while your contractor takes care of the rest of the job.

All three start the same way: the free in-home design visit. More on buying cabinets only

What a kitchen remodel costs

Every kitchen is different, so Bill prices yours in person instead of guessing over the phone.

At the end of the design visit you get itemized prices on the spot, good for one year. Each item is priced on its own, so you can see where every dollar goes and change anything you like.

The two biggest choices are which cabinet line you pick, mid-range or high-end, and which countertop bid you take.

What customers say about their remodel

5.0 from 80 Google reviews (opens Google Maps in a new tab). Here is what kitchen customers say on Google and Facebook, in their own words.

34 Days! Our kitchen is finished after only 34 days!

We are very impressed with how quickly and smoothly everything went. All of the contractors did great work - they were detail oriented, efficient, and highly skilled. And they all seemed to enjoy working for/with Affordable Kitchens. The owner took time with us at the very start of the project to explain everything that would take place and what to expect. He gave us an incredibly detailed storyboard that outlined all aspects of our remodel, along with a calendar for when each step would take place. Not only did our project manager stick to the schedule, they were often ahead of schedule! Best of all, Affordable Kitchens honored the final quoted price despite rising costs in this COVID era. 5 out of 5 stars!

Affordable Kitchens designed and remodeled my kitchen, and I couldn’t be happier with the result's. I was very impressed with the quality of their work and their attention to detail throughout every step of the process. They were professional, thorough, and made sure everything was done right. I’m very happy with my new kitchen and would highly recommend Affordable Kitchens to anyone considering a remodel.

Bill and his team did beautiful work on my mom’s kitchen remodel. The craftsmanship and attention to detail really show in the finish. We’re so grateful for the care they put into it!

My kitchen was done 15 years ago and the furniture and installation was of such high quality and excellence that it continues to look sturdy and simply beautiful. Recommend them 100%

Bill is very knowledgeable and has great foresight regarding cabinet design. Pricing was a great value...very reasonable. Quality work without delays or excuses....highly recommended.

Robert Shramuk on Google

You do fabulous work. We still love our kitchen that you did 3 years ago. Everyone who worked on it was kind and friendly. Work was done on time and the whole project was finished a week earlier than originally planned. The whole process was such a pleasure. Thank you!!

Dennis on Facebook

They did our kitchen 6 years ago and I still love it. Their process is unique and you know what's happening every step of the way.

Kitchen remodel questions

How much does a kitchen remodel cost?

It depends on your kitchen and your choices, so we price it in person. At the end of the free design visit, Bill gives you itemized prices on the spot, with every item priced separately. Those prices are good for one year, which gives you time to think it over without pressure.

Is there a waiting list to get started?

No. There's no waiting list, so your start date depends only on when you order. Work in your kitchen begins once your cabinets arrive, and from that first day most remodels take 4-6 weeks from start to finish, following a day-by-day calendar for your project.

What happens at the Storyboard Re-measure?

It's Bill's second visit, after you decide to go ahead. He double-checks every measurement in your kitchen and goes over your choices one more time, so any final changes get made before anything is ordered. Taking the time here means the order that goes in matches your kitchen.

Will there be a dumpster in my driveway?

No. We don't park dumpsters in driveways. Your old cabinets are hauled away the same day they come out. During the remodel, everyone on the job works from the day-by-day calendar for your project, so you know who's coming to your house and when.

Can I hire you for just part of the remodel?

Yes. You can buy cabinets from us and have your own contractor install them, and Bill will meet your installer to go over the layout. Or buy the cabinets and have our installer put them in while your contractor handles everything else. Call (630) 890-3379 to talk it through.
