Styles & brands we work with







Kitchen Design in South Miami
Kitchen Design in South Miami starts with the floor system under your feet, not the cabinet catalog. In this city, many pre-1980 homes were built on raised pier-and-beam foundations with a vented crawlspace. That means the first question our design team asks is whether your subfloor is flat and dry. A bouncy wood floor under a new island or a long run of quartz countertop is a crack waiting to happen. We measure, level, and only then draw the layout.
For a South Miami homeowner, design usually covers cabinet layout, appliance placement, countertop material selection, backsplash, lighting, and flooring transitions. We also handle the structural questions that design-only firms skip: where the beam goes if a wall comes out, how the new electrical reaches the island, and how the venting routes through older framing. A full design-and-build kitchen remodel in South Miami ranges $16,520 – $53,100.
Cabinetry and Surface Selections
We specify KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, and Kohler or Moen fixtures. Every selection gets documented in your written scope, with manufacturer part numbers where it matters. No verbal allowances that turn into surprise change orders later.
Layout Work with Older Floors
When a South Miami kitchen needs a wall moved or an island added, the pier-and-beam structure under the floor becomes the real job. We sister joists where needed, replace rotted sill plates, and lay new plywood substrate before any cabinet gets set. The layout gets built on a floor that will stay flat.
Kitchen Renovation in South Miami
Kitchen Renovation in South Miami means more than swapping cabinet doors. On most of the homes our crews see here, renovation is the place where old framing meets new loads. If your house was built before 1980 on a raised foundation, the renovation plan has to account for crawlspace moisture, subfloor deflection, and sometimes a full sill-plate repair before the finished surfaces go in. A small kitchen renovation in South Miami runs $10,620 – $23,600. A full renovation runs $16,520 – $53,100.
Renovation includes what we call the rough-in: moving water supply lines and drain lines, adding circuits for the island and under-cabinet lighting, and framing any soffit changes. Then it moves to the finish phase, which is cabinets, counters, backsplash, flooring, fixtures, and trim. We pull the Miami-Dade County permit and schedule the inspections. You do not chase the building department; we do.

Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full remodel takes the room down to the studs and floor joists, then rebuilds it square and level. In South Miami, that often includes crawlspace work: sistering joists, replacing a rotted sill plate, and adding a vapor barrier before the subfloor goes back. This is the project where our written price matters most, because it is the one where sketchy contractors bury structural surprises under new tile.
Small and Partial Kitchen Remodels
Not every South Miami kitchen needs a full gut. A partial remodel, like new cabinets and counters without moving walls or plumbing, runs $10,620 – $23,600. We still write the full scope and price before starting. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to a partial remodel every bit as much as a full one.
Trusted Brands We Service in South Miami
We install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone quartz, and Kohler and Moen fixtures in South Miami kitchens. These are documented, name-brand products with manufacturer specifications and warranties that back our own workmanship guarantee. When a South Miami homeowner asks for a Cambria island top or a KraftMaid Shaker cabinet line, we can order it, spec it, and install it without guesswork. Some projects we have seen favored modular providers like Cover or Mighty Buildings for accessory structures, but for a working kitchen that gets daily use, we stay with cabinet and surface brands that have deep parts availability and local distribution. That matters when a drawer glide wears out three years in. A live person answers our phone 24/7, and we can get parts ordered or schedule the correction without a callback queue.

AfterCommon Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in South Miami Homes
- Bouncy or sagging subfloors on pier-and-beam homes. Pre-1980 South Miami houses often have wood floors over vented crawlspaces. Humidity and time sag the joists, and cabinets rack or quartz cracks when you set them on a floor that moves. We level before we install.
- Unpermitted electrical and plumbing work from past remodel attempts. Miami-Dade County requires permits for electrical, plumbing, and structural changes. We have opened walls on South Miami kitchens and found handyman wiring that never saw an inspector. We pull permits and pass inspections before covering anything.
- Verbal allowances that become mid-job change orders. Homeowners agree to a tile price on the phone, then the installer picks a premium line and the invoice moves. Our written price includes the fixture and material selections, in writing, before demolition starts.
- Crawlspace moisture working up through the floor. In South Miami, the same vented crawlspace that lets air move also lets humidity collect under the kitchen. We add vapor barrier and repair sill plates so the new kitchen does not warp from underneath.

The biggest cost driver in South Miami is the condition of the floor system under your kitchen. A slab-on-grade house skips that cost. A 1965 pier-and-beam house near Ludlam Road usually needs joist work, new plywood, and moisture barrier before cabinets go in, and that adds real labor. Cabinet grade, countertop material, and whether you move plumbing or electrical all move the number inside these ranges. Call (903) 568-7222 for a free written estimate.
