Do you offer a free consultation at the beginning of the kitchen remodel process?

Yes. Every project from a partial kitchen remodel to a full kitchen remodel starts with a free “In-home consultation”. A preliminary in-home consultation appointment takes approximately one hour.

What should I expect in the consultation?

In the consultation, you will meet your assigned project manager which will go over your project with you. Preliminary consultation will cover subjects like timeline, budget, major design details, and setting expectations. In Optimal Home Remodeling & Design, we believe that a successful kitchen remodeling project should be based on a thorough and solid process from its start.

How long does the typical kitchen remodeling project take?

While every kitchen remodeling project is different here are some guidelines to understand the timeline of your project. The design phase of the project and materials order takes three to five weeks. In case of layout or structural changes, the design phase may take a few months, depending on each city’s processing time and workload. The construction phase will take a minimum of five weeks which can add up to ten weeks when the major layout or structural changes are made. It is important to understand that special material orders such as custom cabinetry, windows/ doors, and appliances may take longer so it is very important to plan.

Will the designer change the layout of my current kitchen, or do I have to keep the current layout?

Not necessarily. We can perform any kind of kitchen remodeling project including major layout changes such as electrical or plumbing relocations. When many companies might offer major changes to your kitchen, we at Optimal Home Remodeling & Design try to find the balance (or the “Optimal point”) between your needs, dreams, and budget. In some cases, minor changes to the cabinetry layout or some design twist may make a huge difference without spending a lot. The design phase is very important in any kitchen remodeling project.

Should I have my kitchen remodel ideas?

No but if you have some ideas this is great! Our teams are very experienced and creative and can help you bring new ideas or upgrade your ideas if needed. It will be helpful if you have some basic vision of how you want your kitchen to look after your kitchen remodel project.

Do I get to see a virtual design of my kitchen renovation before the project starts?

Yes. In every project we do, we provide virtual design to help you visualize your new project. At this stage, you can still make changes to the layout. The virtual design also helps with quantities and ordering materials.

Our kitchen design and remodeling experts will work with you in the design process to virtually make your new kitchen come together.
