AfterFull Kitchen Remodeling in Dallas, TX
A full kitchen remodel in Dallas typically runs between $45,000 and $95,000 for a complete gut-and-rebuild, with most mid-range projects landing in the $55,000 to $70,000 range. That covers demolition down to the studs, new electrical and plumbing rough-in, cabinetry, countertops, flooring, and finish work. Bradford Remodeling Co Dallas puts that number in writing before we touch a single wall, and we stand behind the finished job for a full year under our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
This is the project where you’re not just swapping out cabinet fronts or updating a backsplash. You’re changing how the room works, how it flows into the rest of the house, and how your family lives in it day to day. Our Kitchen Remodeling in Dallas work spans everything from single-surface upgrades to complete tear-outs, and the full remodel is where we spend most of our time. If you’ve been putting this off because you’ve heard stories about contractors who disappear mid-project or hand you a surprise invoice at the end, that’s exactly the problem we built our process to eliminate. Call (903) 326-8963 and we’ll walk you through what a full remodel looks like in your home, in your neighborhood, with a real price attached.
When You Need Full Kitchen Remodeling
Not every kitchen problem calls for a full remodel. But some situations make it the smarter financial move versus patching things piecemeal. Here’s what we see across Dallas, from M Streets bungalows to newer builds in Far North Dallas:
- The layout doesn’t work anymore. You’ve got a kitchen built for one cook in a house where three people are trying to make breakfast at the same time. Adding square footage or reconfiguring the existing footprint means moving walls, relocating plumbing, and redoing electrical. That’s a full remodel, not a facelift.
- The rough-in is past its useful life. In older Dallas homes, particularly pre-1980 construction in Lakewood, East Dallas, and Richardson, we regularly open walls to find aluminum wiring, cast-iron drain lines, and plumbing that predates modern code. When the substrate is failing, surface updates are wasted money.
- You’ve already done partial work and it didn’t hold up. If you replaced countertops five years ago but the cabinets underneath are sagging, you’re going to pay twice. A full remodel addresses the structure first, so the finish work has something solid to sit on.
- You’re planning to stay in the house for 10+ years. This is the time to build exactly what you want, not what the next buyer might tolerate. Full remodels let you spec cabinets, appliances, and storage around how you actually cook and live.
- You need to move gas, water, or electrical service. Relocating a range, adding a pot filler, or putting the dishwasher on the other side of the room means pulling new lines through the walls and ceiling. Once the walls are open, you’re in full-remodel territory whether you planned on it or not.
- Water or termite damage has compromised the structure. Under-sink leaks, dishwasher failures, and slab issues all show up in Dallas kitchens. If the subfloor or studs are compromised, you don’t have a cosmetic problem. You have a rebuild.
Our Full Kitchen Remodeling Process
Here’s the sequence we run on every full kitchen remodel in Dallas. There are no mystery steps, no gaps where you’re wondering what’s happening, and no price changes baked into the middle of the job.
- Walkthrough and measurements. We start at your home, look at the existing conditions, and talk through what’s possible with your footprint. If you have an architect or designer, we’ll coordinate with them. If you don’t, we’ll bring a layout plan to you based on real measurements.
- Written scope and price. Before any work starts, you get a document that specifies what we’re doing, what materials we’re using, and what it costs. This is The Garrison Standard applied directly to your project. The number doesn’t move at the door, and if something changes mid-job, it gets written down and agreed to before we proceed.
- Demolition and rough-in. We take the room down to the studs where the plan calls for it, then run new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC as needed. This is also when we address any structural issues we find: rotted subfloor, undersized joists, anything that would undermine the finished work.
- Inspection and wall close. The rough-in gets inspected, then insulation, drywall, and substrate go in. The soffit, if your layout calls for one, gets framed and finished at this stage.
- Cabinet install, counters, and finishes. Cabinets go in first, then tops, then fixtures, backsplash, and flooring. We install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, and Kohler and Moen fixtures as named options, with manufacturer specs you can verify.
- Walkthrough and written guarantee. When the job is done, we walk the room with you, line by line against the written scope, and hand you the signed 365-Day Done Right Promise. If anything in the work doesn’t hold for a year, we come back and correct it at no charge. No fine print, no runaround.
Full Kitchen Remodeling Pricing in Dallas
We’re direct about numbers because you deserve a real range, not a “call for a quote” dodge. Full kitchen remodels in Dallas have been landing in these ranges across our recent projects:
| Scope | Typical Range | What It Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Small-footprint full remodel (under 150 sq ft) | $45,000 – $60,000 | Gut to studs, basic layout kept, mid-grade cabinets, laminate or quartz counters, standard appliances in same locations |
| Mid-size full remodel (150-300 sq ft) | $55,000 – $80,000 | Layout changes, semi-custom cabinets, quartz or granite counters, upgraded fixtures, new lighting plan |
| Large or high-end full remodel (300+ sq ft or premium specs) | $75,000 – $95,000+ | Wall removal with structural work, custom cabinetry, Cambria or Caesarstone surfaces, premium appliance rough-in, custom lighting and flooring |
What drives the price up or down? The big three are footprint changes, rough-in complexity, and material tier. Moving a sink or range across the room means rerouting plumbing and electrical, which adds labor before a single finish goes in, so kitchen design & layout decisions matter early. Older Dallas homes with slab foundations often require trenching through concrete for drain line moves, and that’s a real cost that shows up early in the estimate, not as a surprise later.
The material tier is the part you control most directly. Cabinetry from KraftMaid or Wellborn ranges widely depending on line and finish. Countertops span from entry quartz to Cambria or Caesarstone, which run higher but carry manufacturer warranties that back up our own. We’ll spec exactly what we’re installing, by name, in the written price. No “builder-grade” ambiguity that gets swapped at delivery.
Call (903) 326-8963 and we’ll give you a free estimate with line items you can actually evaluate. The written price comes before any commitment, and it’s the same number when the last cabinet door is hung.
FAQs – Full Kitchen Remodeling
How long does a full kitchen remodel take in Dallas?
A full kitchen remodel in Dallas typically runs 6 to 10 weeks from first demolition to final walkthrough. The timeline depends on whether you’re moving walls, relocating plumbing or gas lines, adding a kitchen island installation, and how quickly permits clear with the city. We give you a written schedule alongside the written price, and if we hit a delay from a supplier or an inspection scheduling backlog, we tell you the day we know, not the day after you call to ask. Call (903) 326-8963 and we’ll give you a realistic timeline for your specific scope.
Is it cheaper to remodel in phases rather than doing a full kitchen remodel at once?
No, piecemeal remodeling almost always costs more in the long run. You pay for demolition, rough-in, and finish work separately each time you open the walls, and you lose the pricing leverage of having one crew work a continuous schedule. A full remodel done in one pass costs less per square foot than three partial projects. The written-price commitment we make before work starts means you’ll see exactly what the whole job costs, and you can compare it honestly against a phased approach. Call (903) 326-8963 to get a number for your kitchen either way.
Do I need permits for a full kitchen remodel in Dallas?
Yes, a full kitchen remodel in Dallas that involves electrical, plumbing, or structural changes requires permits from the City of Dallas. We pull the permits as part of the job, schedule the inspections, and keep the paperwork in order. It’s one of the reasons our process runs by The Garrison Standard: every step gets documented, inspected, and signed off before the next step begins. No shortcuts on permitted work, period.
What does the 365-Day Done Right Promise actually cover?
The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the workmanship of everything we install for a full year after the job is completed. If a cabinet comes loose, a countertop seam fails, a fixture leaks, or any part of our installation doesn’t hold, we come back and correct it at no charge within 365 days. It’s a written guarantee, signed and handed to you at walkthrough, not a verbal assurance. That’s the kind of accountability you should expect from any contractor, and the only time it counts is when it’s in writing before you pay the final invoice.
Squared Away Is the Standard
A full kitchen remodel is the single most disruptive project most Dallas homeowners will ever run. It means weeks of your home being a construction site, meals moving to the garage or the dining room, and your family’s routines getting bent around a work schedule. That’s why we run it the way we do: written prices before any work starts, named materials in the contract, background-checked and uniformed technicians on site, and a live person answering the phone 24 hours a day.
The Garrison Standard is the framework behind every one of those commitments. The Garrison Code is what our crews actually follow when they’re in your home: clean job site at the end of every day, tools and materials staged out of your walkways, and a documented scope that keeps the work honest from first cut to final cleanup. When the job closes, you get a room you can stand in and a signed piece of paper that says the work is guaranteed for a year. That’s what squared away looks like.
