Common Kitchens problems
What San Antonio homeowners tell us before they call
Layouts that fight you every day
Closed-off kitchens, tight work triangles, and no island space make cooking miserable. Wall removal is often the real fix — not just new cabinets.
Change orders that blow the budget
Most kitchen cost overruns start with material selections made too late. We lock every finish and its price before saws start — no surprises.
Five contractors, zero coordination
Managing a cabinet shop, tile setter, plumber, electrician, and general contractor separately is a part-time job. Design-build puts them all under one contract.
What we do
Kitchen Remodeling in San Antonio, the design-build way
Last updated: June 24, 2026
Our design-build kitchen remodels reengineer your layout and work triangle, add custom islands and storage, and finish with premium countertops (Pentalquartz, Vicostone) and high-end hardware (Brizo, Delta, Kohler). Structural wall removal, custom cabinetry, and tile backsplashes are handled by one in-house team, selected and priced in our design center before construction begins.

A kitchen remodel that actually fixes the layout
The biggest difference between a quick refresh and a real kitchen remodel is whether the layout still works after the new finishes are in. Open kitchens, better work triangles, generous storage, and a real island — these are layout decisions, not just material choices.
We start by understanding how you actually cook and entertain. Then we look at the floor plan honestly: which walls can come down, where the load-bearing structure is, where appliances should live to keep the work triangle tight, and how to gain pantry and island storage without crowding circulation.
The structural work most kitchens need
About 70% of the kitchens we remodel involve some structural change — usually removing a partial or full wall between the kitchen and the dining or living space. That work requires:
- Structural assessment of the wall (load-bearing or not)
- LVL beam sizing by a structural engineer
- Permits through San Antonio Development Services
- Clean reframe and trim so the finished ceiling looks intentional
We handle every step. You don’t manage the engineer, the framer, or the permit office.
Custom cabinets, real countertops, premium hardware
Stock cabinets are fine for a quick flip. They’re not what we do. Our kitchens are built around custom millwork — shaker, slab, raised-panel, or full inset — in your choice of paint or stain, with the storage actually engineered to your stuff.
Countertops are premium quartz (Pentalquartz, Vicostone), granite, or natural stone. Faucets and hardware are typically Brizo, Delta, or Kohler — selected at our design center where you can see the finish in real light.
What you’ll walk through in the design center
In one visit you’ll touch and decide on:
- Cabinet door style, species, and finish
- Countertop material and slab
- Island configuration and seating
- Backsplash tile and pattern
- Faucet, sink, and disposal package
- Knob and pull selections
- Lighting plan (under-cabinet, pendant, can)
- Flooring transitions
By the end of the visit, your fixed bid is locked. From there, you don’t think about money again until the final walkthrough.
Why homeowners pick us
Same process. Same crew. Same fixed price.
We engineer the layout, not just refinish it
Most remodelers swap cabinets and finishes. We rework the work triangle, remove load-bearing walls with LVL beams, and make the room actually flow.
Selections happen in our design center, not on Pinterest
You touch the real cabinet door, the real countertop slab, and the real hardware finish. Price is itemized as you choose.
One contract from demo through final walkthrough
Custom millwork, electrical, plumbing, tile, and finish carpentry are all in-house. There's no subcontractor blame loop.

What homeowners say
4.9 stars across 200+ Houzz reviews
50% of our projects come from direct referrals. Here's why.
"From the first design-center visit to the final walkthrough, we had one point of contact and one price that never moved. Our kitchen is unrecognizable in the best way."
"They removed a load-bearing wall and turned three cramped rooms into an open living space. The crew was the same faces every day for weeks — that mattered."
"Our walk-in shower is gorgeous and finally accessible for my mom. They handled the layout, plumbing, and waterproofing without us chasing anyone."
"We added an in-law suite and you genuinely cannot tell it wasn't part of the original house — the brick and roofline match perfectly."
"Transparent budgeting was the whole reason we picked them, and they delivered. No surprise change orders, no hidden fees."
