NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
When a kitchen remodel is done right, you stop working around the space and start enjoying it. The layout makes sense. The storage fits your life. Cooking for a crowd whether it’s a Tuesday night or a Sunday with the whole family over stops feeling like a logistical problem.
For Smithtown homeowners, there’s also a financial reality worth understanding. Median sale prices here hit $940,000 in mid-2025. A well-executed kitchen renovation isn’t just a lifestyle upgrade it’s one of the highest-returning investments you can make in this market. Minor kitchen remodels are delivering over 100% ROI right now, and buyers in this price range notice the kitchen immediately.
There’s also what happens when the walls come open. A significant portion of Smithtown’s housing stock was built in the 1950s and 60s ranch homes in Kings Park, cape cods in Nesconset, split-levels throughout the hamlet. Homes that age commonly contain asbestos-containing materials and lead paint. Most kitchen remodelers aren’t licensed to handle that. We are. That means your project keeps moving no matter what’s discovered, without a pause, a subcontractor call, or a cost surprise that blindsides you halfway through.
We were founded in 2012 and are based in Bohemia about 15 minutes from Smithtown via Route 347. That’s not a technicality. It means we know this area, have worked in homes like yours throughout Smithtown and the surrounding communities, and understand the specific permit process through the Town of Smithtown Building Department. This isn’t a company learning your neighborhood on your dime.
Over 5,000 projects completed across Suffolk County and beyond. We’re licensed through Nassau County’s Home Improvement Contractor board, plus five additional licenses that include asbestos abatement credentials which matter more than most homeowners realize until demo day. We also hold IICRC certification and official M/WBE certification from New York State, a government-vetted designation that requires real documentation, not just a checkbox.
What that adds up to for you: one company that can design your kitchen, pull the permits, handle whatever the walls reveal, and deliver a finished space without handing your project off to anyone else.
It starts with a consultation. Someone from our team comes to your home, walks the space with you, and listens to what you actually want not what’s easiest to build. From there, we build out a 3D design model so you can see your finished kitchen before a single wall comes down. Layout, cabinetry, countertop material, lighting all of it visualized and approved by you first.
Once the design is locked, we handle permits through the Town of Smithtown Building Department. That includes preparing the application, coordinating inspections, and making sure every phase of the project meets code. If you’ve ever tried to navigate that process yourself, you know it’s not simple. It doesn’t have to be your problem.
Demolition comes next, and this is where our background in environmental remediation becomes genuinely useful. If the demo uncovers asbestos tile, mold, or old water damage which is common in Smithtown homes built before 1980 we handle it in-house, on the same timeline, without stopping the project. Construction follows, and the job isn’t done until you’ve done a final walkthrough and everything is right. No disappearing act after the last cabinet goes in.

A full kitchen remodel with us covers the whole scope custom cabinetry, countertop installation in granite, quartz, or other materials, layout redesign and space planning, flooring, lighting, appliance integration, and plumbing or electrical work as needed. There’s no point where you’re handed off to a separate contractor for part of the job. The same team that designs it builds it.
For Smithtown homeowners near the water in Nissequogue, Head of the Harbor, or along the North Shore material selection matters more than it does inland. Salt air and seasonal humidity swings affect how cabinet finishes hold up, how countertop sealants perform, and what flooring choices make sense long-term. We select materials with those conditions in mind, not just what looks good in a showroom.
If your kitchen was damaged in the August 2024 flooding that affected Suffolk County, there’s also an option to combine the restoration and the remodel into a single project. We can handle the water damage side and the renovation side together, bill your insurance company directly, and turn what started as a repair into a kitchen that’s actually better than what you had. That’s a path a lot of Smithtown homeowners haven’t considered yet but it’s worth knowing it exists.
In most cases, yes especially if the project involves any structural changes, plumbing relocation, electrical upgrades, or gas line work. The Town of Smithtown Building Department requires permits for all of those scopes, and inspections are required at specific milestones before work can continue. The town has moved to an online permit application system for residential projects, which helps, but knowing what to submit, when to schedule inspections, and how to prepare documentation correctly still takes experience.
We manage the entire permit process as part of the project not as an add-on. That includes preparing the application, coordinating with the Building Department, and scheduling inspections at the right phases. If you’re doing a full kitchen remodel that touches plumbing or electrical, trying to navigate that process on your own while also managing a construction project is a real source of delays. Having a contractor who handles it as a matter of course makes a meaningful difference in how smoothly the timeline runs.
It’s more common than most people expect in Smithtown. Homes built before 1980 which covers a large portion of the housing stock in Kings Park, Nesconset, and the Smithtown hamlet frequently contain asbestos-containing materials in floor tiles, pipe insulation, ceiling texture, and wall materials. New York State law requires an asbestos survey before demolition work in buildings that may contain these materials, and contractors who aren’t licensed for asbestos abatement cannot legally continue the demo if asbestos is found.
We hold asbestos abatement licensing, which means if it’s discovered during your kitchen demo, our team handles it in-house without stopping the project or calling in a third party. For homeowners in Smithtown, that’s the difference between a project that keeps moving on schedule and one that gets put on hold for weeks while you wait for a separate remediation contractor to become available. It also eliminates the awkward conversation where a contractor uses the discovery as leverage to renegotiate the price.
The range is wide depending on scope. A minor kitchen refresh new cabinet fronts, updated countertops, basic fixtures can run $15,000 to $30,000. A full kitchen remodel with layout changes, custom cabinetry, new plumbing and electrical, and premium countertop materials typically runs $40,000 to $100,000 or more. In Smithtown, where median home values are approaching $940,000, most homeowners are investing in the middle to upper end of that range because the return justifies it.
What affects cost most is scope how much of the layout is changing, what materials are selected, and whether the demo reveals anything inside the walls that needs to be addressed. Asbestos abatement, mold remediation, or subfloor repair are real possibilities in older Smithtown homes and can add to the overall cost if a contractor isn’t equipped to handle them. We provide a written estimate before any work begins, and the 3D design process means you’ve already approved every material and layout decision before construction starts so the estimate reflects the actual project, not a best guess.
For a full kitchen remodel, a realistic timeline is six to twelve weeks from the start of construction, depending on scope and material lead times. The design and permitting phase typically adds two to four weeks before construction begins. In Smithtown, permit processing through the Town of Smithtown Building Department is part of that pre-construction window, and scheduling inspections at the right project milestones is factored into the overall timeline.
Where timelines go wrong is usually one of three places: materials that weren’t ordered early enough, permit delays caused by incomplete applications, or in-wall discoveries mold, asbestos, old water damage that a contractor isn’t equipped to handle in-house. We address all three upfront. Materials and finishes are selected and ordered during the design phase. Permits are filed correctly the first time. And if the demo reveals a problem, it gets handled by our team on the same schedule. That’s how a six-week project stays a six-week project instead of becoming a four-month one.
In this market, the answer is almost always yes but the scope matters. Minor kitchen remodels are currently generating over 100% ROI nationally, and Smithtown’s market conditions make the case even stronger. With median sale prices at $940,000 and buyers at that price point expecting move-in-ready kitchens, a dated kitchen can slow a sale or force a price reduction that costs more than a renovation would have.
The key is not over-building for the neighborhood. A kitchen remodel that targets the $30,000 to $60,000 range updated cabinetry, new countertops, refreshed lighting and fixtures, cohesive finishes tends to deliver the strongest return in a pre-sale context. Going significantly beyond that can be harder to recoup. If you’re planning to sell within two to three years, it’s worth having a conversation about what scope makes financial sense for your specific home and the comparable sales in your area. We can walk through that with you during the initial consultation.
Yes the entire Town of Smithtown is within our regular service area, including St. James, Kings Park, Nesconset, Hauppauge, and the Smithtown hamlet itself. We’re based in Bohemia, which puts our team roughly 15 to 20 minutes from most of these communities. That proximity matters in practical terms: site visits happen faster, project management is tighter, and we’re not coordinating a job from two counties away.
Kings Park and St. James in particular have a lot of the older housing stock post-war ranches and cape cods where in-wall surprises during kitchen demo are most likely. Having a contractor who is already licensed for asbestos abatement and mold remediation, and who knows what to expect in homes of that era, is a real advantage over a remodeling company that has to stop and call someone else when something unexpected turns up. If you’re in St. James near the General Store corridor or in Kings Park closer to the bluff, the process is exactly the same one team, one timeline, one point of contact from design through final walkthrough.
