Kitchen Renovation Long Island
Long Island's Trusted Kitchen Contractor Since 2017
Planning a kitchen renovation on Long Island? Whether you're updating a dated galley kitchen in Levittown or building a showpiece chef's kitchen in Garden City, our team delivers kitchen remodeling projects that stay on schedule and on budget. As a licensed kitchen contractor serving both Nassau County and Suffolk County, we handle every phase of your kitchen remodel — from design and permitting through demolition, rough-in, and the final tile detail. Our full kitchen renovation service covers everything from structural wall removal to custom cabinetry and final inspections.
Long Island homes built in the 1950s through 1980s — the colonials, split-levels, and ranches that make up most of Nassau and Suffolk's housing stock — often need more than a cosmetic refresh. Outdated electrical panels, galvanized plumbing, and load-bearing walls between the kitchen and dining room are things our crews deal with every week. We pull permits in every township from Hempstead to Brookhaven and manage inspections so you don't have to.
- Custom & semi-custom cabinetry
- Quartz, granite & marble countertops
- Open-concept kitchen conversions

James and his team completely transformed our 30-year-old kitchen. The quartz countertops are stunning, the custom cabinets fit perfectly, and they finished two days ahead of schedule. Could not be happier.
Maria S.
Garden City · Full Kitchen Remodel
We replaced all our cabinets and countertops. The crew was respectful, clean, and incredibly skilled. They even set up a temporary kitchen station so we could still cook during the project. That level of care is rare.
Tom & Linda B.
Huntington · Kitchen Cabinets
The design phase was worth every penny. Sarah helped us reimagine our galley kitchen into an open-concept layout. The 3D renderings matched the final result almost exactly. Professional from start to finish.
David K.
Massapequa · Kitchen Design
Small kitchen, big transformation. They maximized every inch of storage, installed under-cabinet lighting, and the new tile backsplash is the centerpiece of the room. Friends think we moved.
Jennifer R.
Great Neck · Small Kitchen Remodel
Replaced our old laminate countertops with Cambria quartz. The fabrication was flawless—the seams are invisible. Tony managed the project and kept us informed every step of the way.
Michael P.
Smithtown · Kitchen Countertops
Our galley kitchen felt like a closet. They removed a non-load-bearing wall, added an island, and now it flows into the dining room. The change is night and day. Best investment we have made in this house.

Kitchen Remodeling in Babylon & Suffolk County
The Town of Babylon is one of our most active kitchen remodeling markets. Babylon, North Babylon, West Babylon, Lindenhurst, Bay Shore, and Deer Park all fall within the Town of Babylon's building jurisdiction, and we pull building permits through the Town of Babylon Building Department on every applicable project. Kitchen remodeling costs in Babylon typically run 8 to 12% below Nassau County averages because labor rates are slightly lower in central Suffolk — a standard kitchen remodel with semi-custom cabinets, quartz countertops, and new flooring runs $28,000 to $50,000 in most Babylon-area homes.
The housing stock across the Town of Babylon is predominantly colonials, ranches, and split-levels built between 1955 and 1980. Many of these kitchens are original or have not been updated since the 1980s or 1990s, which means the remodel often involves more than cosmetics: galvanized plumbing that needs replacement, 100-amp electrical panels that need service upgrades before adding kitchen circuits, and load-bearing walls between the kitchen and dining room that require structural assessment before removal. Our crews handle all of this as part of the renovation — no subcontractors you have to find yourself.
Kitchen floors in Babylon homes are a common standalone project as well. We install porcelain tile, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and hardwood kitchen flooring with subfloor prep included. Kitchen floors in Babylon typically run $8 to $22 per square foot installed depending on material, with LVP being the most popular choice for its durability, water resistance, and realistic wood appearance at $10 to $15 per square foot installed.

Kitchen Renovation Long Island — Common Questions
Kitchen renovation on Long Island typically costs $25,000 to $175,000+ depending on scope and finish level. A cabinet-and-countertop refresh in the existing footprint runs $15,000–$30,000. A standard full kitchen renovation with semi-custom cabinets, quartz countertops, new flooring, and updated fixtures runs $30,000–$55,000. A premium kitchen renovation with custom cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and structural changes runs $55,000–$175,000+. Long Island costs run 30–50% above national averages because of higher labor costs, permit fees, and material delivery costs to the island.
Our Process
Kitchen Renovation Process on Long Island — What to Expect
A kitchen renovation on Long Island follows a structured timeline from initial consultation through final walkthrough. Understanding each phase helps you plan around the disruption and know exactly where your project stands at every point. Here is our proven 7-step process for kitchen remodeling projects across Nassau County and Suffolk County.
Design Consultation
Week 1
We visit your home, measure the kitchen, discuss your vision, review cabinet styles and countertop materials, and identify structural or plumbing considerations. You receive a detailed written estimate within 48 hours.
Material Selection
Week 2-3
Choose cabinets (custom, semi-custom, or stock), countertop material (quartz, granite, marble), backsplash tile, hardware, fixtures, and appliances. We provide samples and help you select finishes that work together.
Permits & Ordering
Week 3-5
We file building permits with Nassau or Suffolk County, order cabinets and countertops, and coordinate material deliveries. Permit review takes 10-15 business days in most Long Island towns.
Demolition & Rough-In
Week 6-7
Our crew removes old cabinets, countertops, flooring, and fixtures. Plumbing and electrical rough-in work happens during this phase — moving gas lines, adding outlets, relocating the sink drain, or removing walls.
Cabinet Installation
Week 7-8
New cabinets are installed level and plumb. Crown molding, fillers, and trim pieces complete the cabinet assembly. This is when the kitchen starts looking like a kitchen again.
Countertops & Tile
Week 8-9
Countertops are templated after cabinet install and fabricated off-site. Installation takes one day. Backsplash tile follows immediately after countertop installation. Grout cures for 24-48 hours.
Final Details & Walkthrough
Week 9-10
Appliance installation, plumbing fixture hookup, hardware installation, painting, touch-ups, and final cleaning. We walk through every detail with you and address any punch-list items same-day.
Kitchen Renovation Types
Types of Kitchen Remodels We Complete on Long Island
Every Long Island kitchen is different. The scope of your renovation depends on your goals, budget, timeline, and the current condition of your kitchen. We handle everything from targeted refreshes to full gut renovations with structural changes.
Cabinet & Countertop Refresh
Replace cabinets and countertops in the existing footprint. No structural changes, no plumbing relocation. Includes new backsplash, hardware, and under-cabinet lighting. Ideal for Long Island homes where the layout works but the finishes are dated. Most common in Levittown Cape Cods, Massapequa ranches, and Hicksville split-levels where the kitchen was last updated in the 1990s or early 2000s.
Standard Full Kitchen Remodel
Complete renovation including semi-custom cabinets, quartz countertops, new flooring, updated plumbing fixtures, electrical upgrades, and new appliances. May include minor layout changes like adding a small island or moving the dishwasher. The most popular scope for Nassau County and Suffolk County homeowners who want a kitchen that looks and functions like new without major structural work.
Open-Concept Transformation
Remove the wall between the kitchen and dining or living room to create a connected, open-floor-plan space. Requires structural engineering, beam installation, and a building permit from your local town (Hempstead, Oyster Bay, Huntington, Babylon, Islip, Smithtown, or Brookhaven). This is the single most impactful renovation for 1960s-1970s Long Island colonials and split-levels where the kitchen was originally designed as a closed-off room.
Luxury Custom Kitchen
Custom inset cabinetry from premium mills, natural stone countertops (Calacatta marble, quartzite), professional appliance suites (Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele), structural changes, custom island with waterfall edge, and high-end finishes throughout. Most common in Garden City, Great Neck, Manhasset, and Huntington where home values and kitchen expectations are highest on Long Island.

Kitchen Renovation in Nassau County — Town by Town
Kitchen renovation in Nassau County varies significantly depending on which town you are in. Permit timelines, building department requirements, and the typical housing stock differ between the Town of Hempstead, Town of Oyster Bay, Town of North Hempstead, and the incorporated villages. Here is what homeowners in each part of Nassau County need to know.
Town of Hempsteadis the largest town on Long Island and covers communities like Levittown, Valley Stream, Elmont, Oceanside, and Baldwin. Kitchen renovation permits here are filed through the Town of Hempstead Building Department at 1 Washington Street, Hempstead. Structural wall removal — the most requested project in this area's 1950s and 1960s Cape Cods — requires a permit and plan review typically running 10–15 business days. We have completed hundreds of kitchen renovations in Hempstead's jurisdiction and handle every permit filing in-house.
Town of Oyster Bay covers Hicksville, Massapequa, Bethpage, Plainview, and Levittown (partial). Permit applications here go to Oyster Bay Town Hall; structural kitchen work and electrical panel upgrades are the two most common permit triggers. Garden City, Great Neck, and other incorporated villages within Nassau County have their own independent building departments — permit timelines and fees vary by village.
Kitchen Renovation in West Babylon and Babylon, NY
West Babylon and Babylon are two of Suffolk County's most active markets for kitchen remodel projects — predominantly 1960s and 1970s colonials and ranches where the original closed-off galley kitchen is being opened to the living space. Permits for this work go through the Town of Babylon Building Department. Most West Babylon and Babylon structural kitchen permits are reviewed in 10–18 business days. We complete kitchen renovations in West Babylon regularly and know the Town of Babylon permit process end to end.
