Do I need a permit to remodel a kitchen in Frisco?
Ask the city before work starts. Frisco requires a permit application before construction that modifies, repairs, replaces, or improves an existing structure, and Building Inspections recommends talking through your plans to confirm whether yours needs one. Every contractor must be registered with the city before a permit is issued. When yours needs one, we pull it. See Frisco Building Inspections.
What does a kitchen remodel cost in Frisco?
It depends on whether the cabinets stay. Biscayne, our Frisco project, was $60,000 as a whole project: the kitchen plus floors, both baths, and paint. It had sat 120 days and been cut to $550,000, and it sold for $699,000. Azure Ln. in Addison, a new kitchen in a whole-house scope, was $135,000. The walkthrough and itemized estimate are free.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
Cosmetic kitchen updates typically finish in three to six weeks. A full remodel with new cabinetry runs eight to twelve weeks, and we set the schedule before work starts. At Haven Pl. in Allen, where the cabinets were painted and the counters and floors replaced, the whole house took three weeks.
Should I keep my kitchen cabinets or replace them before selling?
Keep them when the boxes are sound and only the style is dated, as the owners did at Biscayne, where the cherry cabinets stayed under new white quartz. Replace them when they are worn, the layout wastes the room, or the neighborhood expects new. The walkthrough settles it, and the estimate can show both options.
Can we live in the house during a kitchen remodel?
Usually, yes. Most pre-sale scopes are cosmetic and phased room by room, so you can keep living in the house. If you have already moved, an empty home lets the crews move even faster.
Which Frisco neighborhoods do you work in?
We work across Frisco, which the city says has more than 200 homeowners associations, from Starwood and Phillips Creek Ranch to Richwoods, Grayhawk, and Newman Village. Frisco is part of our Collin County service area; see renovation in Frisco for what the local market is doing.
