Trusted Kitchen Remodeling for Los Angeles Homeowners
A full kitchen remodel in Los Angeles costs $16,520 to $53,100, and a small kitchen remodel runs $10,620 to $23,600. The spread is wide because the scope drives everything: a cosmetic refresh with new countertops and cabinet refacing sits at the low end, while moving plumbing, replacing the electrical panel, and building a kitchen island pushes toward the top. We’ve delivered 4,000-plus projects since 2007, every one with a written price before work started. If you’re researching our Kitchen Remodeling in Los Angeles and want a number you can screenshot and compare, call (470) 298-9650 and ask for a written line-item quote.

Grant Rowan founded Rowan Construction Group on a discipline that hasn’t changed in almost two decades: the price gets written down before anyone picks up a tool. Under Clause 1 of The Haven Standard, that’s not a courtesy, it’s the operating rule. No change proceeds without a signed change order, which is why our projects finish within a few percent of the agreed cost. We’re a home remodeling contractor that puts documentation before enthusiasm.
What Our Kitchen Remodeling Service Includes
Every kitchen remodel we run in Los Angeles starts with the same deliverable: a written scope, a written price, and a written warranty, delivered before you sign anything. Here’s what each phase covers.
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full remodel means we take the room down to the studs where needed and rebuild it as a working kitchen: framing, drywall, plumbing, electrical, insulation, flooring, cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, and finish work. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and document every phase with a photo record you receive at the end of each visit. If the layout changes, the change order gets signed before the crew moves a single wall.

Cabinets & Countertops
We install cabinetry from KraftMaid and Wellborn, and countertops from Cambria and Caesarstone, among fifty-plus vetted brands. The installation includes leveling, scribing to the wall, and hardware alignment, not just setting boxes and screwing them in. We quote cabinet and countertop work as a flat price with a written scope, so you know the material grade and the edge profile before we order anything.

Backsplash
A backsplash is the detail that separates a kitchen from a room with appliances in it. We install ceramic, porcelain, glass, and natural stone backsplash over a prepared substrate, with the tile membrane applied correctly so moisture never reaches the drywall behind it. Backsplash installation in Los Angeles typically runs $945 to $2,950 depending on tile choice and square footage.

Tile & Flooring
Kitchen flooring takes abuse: dropped pots, standing water at the sink, chair legs, and the daily foot traffic of a family. We install porcelain tile, luxury vinyl plank, and engineered hardwood with the underlayment and expansion gaps done to manufacturer spec, not to crew habit. The subfloor gets inspected and documented before anything gets laid over it, because a floor only works if what’s under it works.

Kitchen Design & Layout
A good kitchen layout follows a work triangle: sink, range, and refrigerator placed so the distance between them stays practical. We measure the room, not the idea of the room, and draw the layout around where the plumbing and gas lines actually sit unless you want them moved. Our design work produces a plan with dimensions and elevations you approve before the quote becomes final, so there’s no guesswork once the crew arrives.

Small & Partial Kitchen Remodels
Not every kitchen needs a full gut. A partial remodel might mean replacing countertops and the backsplash, refacing cabinets, installing a new sink and faucet, or swapping the floor. We scope small remodels as narrowly as the work requires, and we quote them with the same written price and written warranty as a full rebuild. A small Kitchen Remodeling - Huntington Park project typically runs $10,620 to $23,600.

Cabinet Installation & Refacing
Cabinet refacing replaces the doors, drawer fronts, and veneer while keeping the cabinet boxes, which saves roughly half the cost of full replacement. Installation of new cabinets in Los Angeles runs $4,720 to $15,340, depending on the number of boxes, the door style, and whether you’re changing the layout. We quote the full line item: boxes, doors, hardware, crown molding, and the labor to hang and align every piece.

Brands We Service for Kitchen Remodeling

We work with KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets regularly, and our crews know the tolerances and installation requirements for both lines. KraftMaid’s framed cabinet construction sits slightly different on the wall than Wellborn’s full-access frameless boxes, and we install each to the manufacturer’s published spec rather than forcing one method onto both. Cambria and Caesarstone quartz countertops are both on our regular material list, and we understand the seaming, overhang, and support differences between them.
We also have experience with prefabricated and panelized construction brands including Abodu, Cover, and Dvele, which clients sometimes ask about when they’re comparing modular kitchen components or evaluating factory-built options for a broader remodel. Whether you’re planning around a specific cabinet line or you want us to recommend one, we quote the material by name and grade in the written price, so you’re comparing real numbers, not adjectives.

- Cabinets no longer close, or the melamine is peeling. When cabinet doors start sagging, the hinges are usually wearing out, but peeling melamine means moisture has gotten into the particleboard substrate. That doesn’t heal. It spreads until the cabinet loses structural integrity, and the repair bill grows with the delay.
- Water stains under the sink or around the dishwasher. Water in a kitchen is a sign something failed, not a quirk to live with. A slow leak under the sink rots the cabinet floor and the subfloor beneath it, which converts a $4,720 cabinet replacement into a $16,520-plus rebuild once framing gets involved.
- The countertop is cracked or the laminate is separating. A cracked stone countertop can often be repaired if it’s stable, but a crack that runs across the whole slab usually means the support underneath has shifted. Laminate separation means water is working into the seams, which expands and eventually lifts the entire surface.
- You’ve stopped using the kitchen the way you want to. If the island is in the wrong place, the pantry is on the wrong wall, or the layout makes cooking feel like a chore, that’s a functional problem, not a cosmetic one. A layout change is a full remodel, but it’s the one that adds the most daily value.
- The flooring is soft, spongy, or visible worn through. Soft spots under the floor mean the subfloor is compromised, usually from a leak that’s been running longer than anyone wants to admit. A new floor laid over a bad subfloor is a written invitation to do the job twice. We document the subfloor condition before covering it, every time.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Process - Step by Step

- 1
Written estimate with line-item pricing. We come out, measure, photograph, and produce a written quote with each phase priced separately: demolition, plumbing, electrical, cabinets, counters, flooring, finishes. You get the number in writing before you decide anything. No verbal ranges, no “we’ll see how it goes.”
- 2
Scope review and material selection. We walk the written scope with you and finalize materials by brand, model, and color. Any change from that point forward is a written change order that gets signed before work proceeds. That’s the discipline that has kept 4,000-plus projects within a few percent of the agreed price.
- 3
Permits and scheduling. We pull the permits, call in the inspections, and schedule the phases in sequence so the kitchen isn’t torn apart for longer than necessary. The schedule is part of the written scope, and the crew shows up in uniform, background-checked, every day.
- 4
Build out and daily documentation. The crew works the scope. Every visit includes a documented photo record, so you can see what was found behind the drywall and what was done about it. We describe the condition of the substrate, the framing, the plumbing rough-in, in plain terms, and explain what it means in one clause.
- 5
Final inspection and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. We walk the finished kitchen with you, confirm every line item, and hand you the written warranty. If it’s not done right, Rowan makes it right, backed by The Haven Standard, printed on every page and honored for a full year.

A typical full kitchen remodel in Los Angeles takes four to eight weeks from demolition to final inspection, depending on permit scheduling, material lead times, and whether plumbing or electrical moves. A small or partial remodel can run two to four weeks. The schedule is part of the written scope, and change orders add timeline the same way they add cost.
A full kitchen remodel in Los Angeles runs $16,520 to $53,100, and a small kitchen remodel runs $10,620 to $23,600. The main cost drivers are square footage, whether the layout changes, the cabinet and countertop brands, and the condition of the subfloor and framing underneath.

Yes, we install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets and Cambria and Caesarstone countertops regularly, and we maintain relationships across fifty-plus vetted material brands. We quote the material by name and grade in the written price, so you’re comparing real product numbers, not a generic “premium” label. If you have a brand preference, bring it to the estimate and we’ll price it.
Kitchen remodeling is planned construction, not emergency work, so we don’t market same-day or 24/7 installation claims. What we do offer is a written price before any work starts, a scheduled build with a documented photo record on every visit, and a live person answering calls 24/7. If you have a water leak or an urgent issue behind the cabinets, call (470) 298-9650 and we’ll tell you honestly whether it needs a repair or a remodel.
Every kitchen remodel we deliver includes a written workmanship warranty, and the entire project is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, Rowan makes it right. That promise is printed on every page and backed by The Haven Standard terms page, not an asterisk. We hand you the warranty in writing at the final walkthrough.
The main preparation is making decisions before demolition starts: finishes, fixtures, cabinet door style, countertop edge, and where the appliances go. The more decisions locked in before we open the walls, the fewer change orders later, and the closer the final price stays to the written quote. We’ll walk you through the material selections during the scope review and give you a checklist for what to clear out of the room before the crew arrives.
