Kitchen Remodels That Start With the Layout
Full kitchen remodels with cabinetry, counters, lighting and the layout changes that make the room work.
Most kitchens we're asked about have the same problem: the layout was set decades ago and nobody has cooked comfortably in it since. New cabinet doors don't fix that. Moving a wall, adding an island or relocating the sink does. We handle the whole job, so the layout, the electrical and the finishes get planned together instead of by three separate contractors who never talk.
Layout changes
Opening a wall to the dining room, adding an island with seating, moving the range so two people can work at once. If the wall is load bearing we bring in an engineer and install a proper beam, which is the same structural work we do on its own. Plumbing and gas lines get moved as part of the job.
Cabinets, counters and lighting
Custom and semi custom cabinetry, quartz and granite counters, tile backsplash, under cabinet and recessed lighting, and electrical brought to code with the circuits a modern kitchen needs. We'll talk you through where spending more pays off and where it doesn't.
Timeline and living through it
Demo, rough plumbing and electrical, inspection, drywall, cabinets, then counters. Counters are templated after the cabinets are in, so there is a gap of a couple of weeks between cabinets and counters on almost every kitchen. We help you set up a temporary kitchen and give you the schedule in writing. A kitchen that is part of a bigger project belongs in a whole home remodel.

What customers say
4.9 stars from 24 reviews on HomeAdvisor and Angi
Read all reviews“I was thoroughly impressed with how much care and effort they took in planning, measuring, cutting and fitting each piece of lumber. They showed up when scheduled and always cleaned up after each workday. I felt I was charged a fair price for the projects (I obtained estimates from multiple contractors). When I'm ready to redo my kitchen and another bathroom, Daka Renovations will be my first call.”
“Very professional. Fantastic work. Very reasonable price. Cleaned up every day. Best experience I have had with a contractor in some time.”
“When the job was done, I listed the house and it sold in one day for full asking price. Thanks so much!”
Questions
Questions about kitchen remodeling
How much does a kitchen remodel cost?
Cabinets and counters are usually the biggest lines, followed by any layout change that moves plumbing or takes out a wall. Keeping the footprint and replacing surfaces costs far less than a full gut. We measure, talk through what matters to you, and give you a written itemized quote.
How long is the kitchen out of service?
A full remodel runs several weeks. The counter template after cabinets are set adds a gap on nearly every job. We put the schedule in the quote and help you plan a temporary setup.
Can you take out the wall to the dining room?
Often, yes. If it's load bearing we bring in a structural engineer, install a beam sized for the span, and get it inspected. That's a normal part of a kitchen job for us.
Do you do cabinet refacing or just full remodels?
We focus on full remodels and layout changes. If refacing is genuinely the right answer for your kitchen we'll tell you, but it's not what we're set up for.
Who handles the electrical and plumbing?
We coordinate all of it as part of one job, permitted and inspected. You deal with one contractor and one schedule.
