Kitchen Remodeling in Austin, TX

Your kitchen takes more abuse than any room in your house. It's where your family spends the most time, and it's the first thing buyers look at. A kitchen remodel done right pays back in both daily enjoyment and resale value.

At Wise Constructing, we've completed over 200 kitchen remodels in the Austin area. We don't hand you a catalog and disappear. We work through design with you — layout, cabinet style, countertop material, tile selection — until the plan is exactly what you want. Then we build it.

What a kitchen remodel with us looks like:

Most of our kitchen projects run 3–6 weeks depending on scope. Here's how a full remodel typically breaks down:

We start with demolition — removing existing cabinets, countertops, and flooring. Our crew protects surrounding areas with dust barriers. We haul everything off-site the same day.

Rough-in work happens next. If the layout changes, we move plumbing and electrical. We have licensed plumbers and electricians on staff — no chasing down subs who don't show. After inspections pass, we close up walls.

Cabinet installation is where you start to see it come together. We work with semi-custom and custom cabinet lines. Every run is level to 1/16 inch. We don't use filler strips to hide crooked work.

Countertop templating happens after cabinets are set. For quartz and granite, the fabricator comes to your home and templates from the actual cabinets. Countertops are typically installed 10–14 days after template.

Tile backsplash, appliance installation, hardware, and final electrical connections wrap up the project. Your project manager does a full punch list walkthrough with you before marking the job complete.
