Boca Raton kitchens

Boca Raton kitchens, from condo galleys to club-home open plans

In Boca Raton we remodel two kinds of kitchens more than any other. One is the condo galley that needs to feel bigger. The other is the 1980s or 1990s country club home kitchen that's ready for a modern open plan with an island. Both run on rules: condo boards, HOA architectural committees and either city or county permits. We plan for those from the first visit.

What a Boca Raton kitchen remodel actually involves

Condo kitchens

Condo kitchens usually keep plumbing and venting where they are, so we get space from smarter cabinetry: full-height uppers, a peninsula with seating, under-cabinet lighting and appliances sized to fit. Associations typically want a contractor application, insurance certificates and approved work hours. See condo remodeling rules in Boca Raton.

Opening up club-home kitchens

Removing a wall between the kitchen and family room is the most requested change in Boca's gated communities. We check whether the wall is load-bearing, engineer a beam if needed, and coordinate HOA approval. Read island vs. peninsula before you decide.

The new $7,500 permit exemption rarely applies

Florida HB 803 took effect July 1, 2026. It lets single-family owners skip a building permit for some work valued under $7,500, but it does not cover plumbing, electrical, structural, mechanical or gas work, it does not apply in flood hazard areas, and a project cannot be split up to stay under the limit. A real remodel moves drains, valves or wiring, so plan on a permit. We file it and close it out.

How a kitchen remodel runs

  1. Home visit and measurement. Colby measures the kitchen, checks plumbing, electrical capacity and venting, and talks through how you cook and gather.
  2. Layout and local rules check. We confirm what Boca Raton and your HOA or condo association require, especially for wall removal or new circuits.
  3. Written scope and fixed estimate. Cabinets, counters, appliances, electrical and plumbing listed line by line.
  4. Design and selections. Cabinet style and finish, quartz or quartzite, backsplash, hardware, lighting and sink.
  5. Permits and ordering. We file permits and order cabinets early so lead time does not stall the job.
  6. Protected demolition. Dust walls, floor protection and same-day debris removal.
  7. Rough-in and inspections. New circuits, plumbing and venting, inspected before walls close.
  8. Install, finish and walkthrough. Cabinets, templating, countertops, backsplash, appliances, then a punch-list walkthrough and permit close-out.

Boca Raton kitchen remodeling questions

Can you remodel a condo kitchen in Boca Raton?

Yes. We handle the association application and insurance certificates, work within building hours, and design around plumbing and venting that can't move.

Can I see a Boca Raton kitchen you've done?

Yes. Watch the client testimonial video on this page from a full kitchen renovation we completed in Boca Raton.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost?

Most of our kitchens run $16,500 to $30,000 for a refresh, $27,000 to $47,500 for a mid-range remodel with new cabinets in the same layout, and $75,000 to $150,000+ for a high-end remodel with layout changes.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

Most kitchens take about 2.5 weeks of on-site work once cabinets and materials are ready. Design, selections, permits and cabinet lead time come before that, so plan on several weeks from contract to start.

Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen?

Usually. Florida HB 803, effective July 1, 2026, exempts some single-family work under $7,500, but not plumbing, electrical, structural or gas work. New circuits, a moved sink or a removed wall all need a permit, and we handle it.

Quartz or quartzite for a South Florida kitchen?

Quartz is engineered, consistent and low-maintenance. Quartzite is natural stone with more variation and needs sealing. See our quartz vs. quartzite guide.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Colby Matheny holds Florida Certified Building Contractor license CBC1269429, and we provide insurance certificates to condo associations and HOAs on request.
