What a Full Kitchen Remodel Includes
A full remodel means the kitchen comes out and a new one goes in. Everything below is inside a standard scope:
- Demolition, disposal and floor protection
- Electrical rough-in: dedicated circuits, under-cabinet lighting, GFCI at counters, panel work if needed
- Plumbing rough-in: supply, drain and vent for the sink and dishwasher
- Drywall repair, texture and paint
- New flooring
- Cabinet delivery, set and leveling
- Countertop digital templating, fabrication and install
- Backsplash tile or slab
- Appliance set and hookup
- Trim, crown, toe kick, hardware
- Final clean and walkthrough
If the layout stays put and the walls stay up, this is your page. If you want the wall between the kitchen and living room gone, read open concept kitchen remodeling instead. If the room is simply too small, look at a kitchen expansion or addition.
Full Kitchen Remodel Cost in Bellevue
| Scope | Typical Bellevue range | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Mid-range full remodel | $50,000 to $100,000 | Semi-custom cabinets, quartz counters, appliances, flooring, lighting |
| High-end full remodel | $100,000 to $200,000+ | Custom cabinetry, layout changes, island, premium appliances, structural work |
| Cosmetic alternative | $25,000 to $50,000 | Refacing, new counters, backsplash, fixtures on the existing layout |
Cabinetry typically consumes 25 to 30 percent of the budget, which is why the cabinet decision moves the number more than the countertop does. Appliances, flooring and labor split most of the rest.
What pushes a Bellevue kitchen up the range:
- Relocating the sink or range. New drain, vent and supply runs are real work, especially on a slab or over a finished ceiling.
- Older housing stock. Bellevue has 64,688 housing units, and a large share around Lake Hills, Woodridge and Newport predate the mid-1970s. Undersized panels, galvanized supply lines and out-of-plumb walls show up once the cabinets come off.
- Ceiling height. Nine and ten foot ceilings in newer Somerset and Lakemont homes want 42 inch wall cabinets plus stacked uppers, which is more cabinet, more finish and more install time.
- Slab yield. A large island in a single-slab material can force a second slab purchase.
We put a written allowance in the proposal for likely surprises rather than discovering them at your expense in week three.
Cabinets: The Decision That Sets Your Budget
Frameless European construction hangs doors directly off the box sides. You get the full opening, flush faces and a modern look. Face frame construction adds a frame about an inch and a half wide across the front of the box, which suits transitional Bellevue homes and hides more wall irregularity in older houses.
Standard base cabinets are 24 inches deep and 34.5 inches tall. Wall cabinets are 12 inches deep in 30, 36 and 42 inch heights, with widths stepping in 3 inch increments. That grid is exactly why a stock package leaves fillers in an older Crossroads rambler and a custom cabinet installation does not.
Painted doors ride best on MDF, which stays flat and takes a smooth finish. Stain-grade work runs maple, oak, cherry, birch or alder. If your existing boxes are solid plywood and the layout already works, cabinet refacing delivers a new face for far less than replacement.
Countertops and Backsplash
| Material | Sealing | Why people pick it |
|---|---|---|
| Engineered quartz | None | About 93% aggregate, 7% resin. Most stain-resistant common surface. 2cm and 3cm standard. |
| Granite | Periodically | Second most stain-resistant. Impregnators stretch resealing to every five to ten years. |
| Quartzite | Yes | Natural stone, quartz-like hardness, real slab-to-slab variation. |
| Marble | Yes | Etches with citrus and wine. A look worth the maintenance to some owners. |
| Butcher block | Oil | Warm and repairable. Wants cleaning after raw meat. |
| Laminate | None | Economical, and easy to replace later. |
Counters are digitally templated after the cabinets are set and leveled, never before. Templating early is the single most common reason a seam lands in the wrong place or an undermount reveal comes out uneven. We hold the standard 25 to 26 inch depth at 35 to 36 inches high unless the design calls for something else.
Pair the new tops with a tile or slab backsplash, and if you have the aisle width, a kitchen island is the highest-return addition in most Bellevue kitchens.
Timeline
| Phase | Duration |
|---|---|
| Design, selections, proposal | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Permits, cabinet fabrication and delivery | 4 to 10 weeks (runs parallel) |
| Demo and rough-in | 1 week |
| Drywall, paint, flooring | 1 week |
| Cabinet set and countertop template | 1 week |
| Countertop install, backsplash, appliances, trim | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Punch list | 2 to 4 days |
Six to ten weeks on site once materials land. Cabinet lead time, not crew availability, is the long pole on nearly every Bellevue project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers, from the questions we get asked at the estimate.
How much is a full kitchen remodel in Bellevue?
Most mid-range full remodels run $50,000 to $100,000. High-end and custom projects start near $100,000 and pass $200,000 with structural work. Cabinetry alone is usually 25 to 30 percent of the total.
How long will my kitchen be out of commission?
Six to ten weeks on site for a full remodel. The kitchen is genuinely unusable for roughly three to four of those weeks, between demo and countertop install.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. Free in-home estimates with no obligation, typically scheduled within three business days. Call (940) 209-3977.
Do I need a permit?
Like-for-like cosmetic work usually does not. Moving plumbing or electrical, adding circuits, or touching a wall does. We pull City of Bellevue permits as part of the contract.
Can I live in the house during the remodel?
Yes, and most clients do. We set up a temporary kitchen zone, seal the openings for dust, and keep a clear path. Expect to eat out more during demo and rough-in.
Do you serve my ZIP code?
Bellevue 98004 through 98009, plus Mercer Island 98040, Kirkland 98033 and 98034, Redmond 98052 and 98053, Sammamish 98029, 98074 and 98075, and Issaquah 98027.
Are you licensed and insured?
a Washington State contractor license and general liability. Certificates available on request before work begins.
Should I replace or reface my cabinets?
If the boxes are solid plywood and the layout works, reface. If the boxes are failing particleboard or the layout is the actual problem, replace. We tell you which you have at the estimate.
What warranty comes with the work?
Workmanship is covered by a written workmanship warranty. Manufacturer warranties on cabinets, stone and appliances pass through to you. Terms are printed in the contract.
