Condo and Townhome Kitchen Remodel in Bellevue, WA

Our team provides HOA submittal packages and 3D layout planning, delivering space-efficient kitchens for homes and low-disruption installations for both residential and mixed-use buildings. Backed by a Washington State contractor license and general liability insurance, we take on work at every scale, from a 70 square foot galley in a Crossroads townhome to a full Downtown tower unit.

From acoustic underlayment and elevator pad protection to seam placement on a single-slab peninsula, our team handles every detail. Serving Bellevue and neighboring Mercer Island, Kirkland and Redmond, we deliver quiet, scheduled, respectful service and reliable, professional, beautiful results on every condo kitchen project.

HOA Approval, Insurance and the Submittal Packet

Most Bellevue associations want the same things before they approve a kitchen remodel:

• A scope of work naming every trade entering the building
• Contractor licence, bond, and a certificate of insurance listing the association as additional insured
• A floor plan showing any change to plumbing, electrical or walls
• Confirmation that no common element, structural slab or shared stack is altered
• Acoustic underlayment specifications for any hard flooring
• Start and finish dates inside approved working hours

We assemble that packet and submit it. Board review commonly runs two to six weeks depending on meeting schedules, so it starts the day the design is approved.

What Can Move, and What Cannot

Usually fixed: the plumbing stack, the structural slab, demising walls, and exterior venting penetrations. A new hole in a facade is almost never approved in a Bellevue high rise.

Usually flexible: non-structural partitions with board approval, circuits inside the unit, the sink location within a few feet of the existing drain, cabinet layout, and appliance configuration.

Ventilation comes up on every job. Where exterior ducting is not permitted, a recirculating hood with a serious charcoal filtration package is the realistic answer. Induction helps, producing far less airborne grease than gas.

The peninsula usually beats the island. Most Bellevue condo kitchens run 70 to 140 square feet, which rarely supports 42 inch aisles on four sides. A peninsula gives the same seating and prep surface against one fixed wall. If your unit has the width, our kitchen island installation page covers the rough-in.

Materials That Work in a Small Kitchen

Frameless European construction hangs doors directly on the box sides, with no face frame eating the opening. In a small kitchen that recovers usable inches on every drawer bank, which is why it dominates condo work. Base cabinets stay 24 inches deep at 34.5 inches high, and wall cabinets in the 42 inch height run to the ceiling for the storage a condo is always short of.

Counters run 25 to 26 inches front to back at 35 to 36 inches high, digitally templated after the cabinets are set and leveled. In a tight galley, seam placement matters more than it does in a big kitchen, because every seam is within arm's reach.

If the boxes in your unit are sound plywood and the layout works, cabinet refacing is often the smartest condo move available. Faster, quieter, less debris, and far less friction at HOA review. New surfaces alone are covered on our countertop replacement page.

How We Work Inside Your Building

1. Free in-unit estimate. We read the association's remodel rules first, then measure.
2. Design and 3D renderings, confirmed against what the building actually permits.
3. HOA submittal. Full packet, insurance certificate, schedule inside approved hours.
4. City of Bellevue permit where plumbing, electrical or partitions are involved.
5. Protection. Elevator pads, corridor runners, jamb guards, sealed entry with negative air.
6. Demolition and debris removal on the approved route, in the approved window.
7. Rough-in, inspection, drywall, flooring with the specified underlayment.
8. Cabinets set, counters templated, then stone, backsplash, appliances and trim.
9. Punch list, common-area inspection, final walkthrough.

Four to eight weeks on site for a typical unit, plus two to six weeks of board review first. Townhomes with private entries run faster, because most of the access constraints disappear.

Related Services

Owners usually look at the bathrooms in the same window, since the building only has to approve one work period. See condo bathroom remodeling for the matching rules and small bathroom remodeling for tight-footprint layouts. Own a house as well? Full kitchen remodeling covers that scope. A tile or slab wall behind the range is backsplash installation, and boxes built to an odd unit dimension are custom cabinet installation.
