AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Addison
A full kitchen remodel in Addison typically runs $14,000 to $45,000, with smaller partial remodels landing between $9,000 and $20,000. Most projects in Addison’s multifamily-heavy housing stock take four to eight weeks once permits clear. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been remodeling kitchens since 1998. Call Tom and his crew at (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate on yours.
If you live in Addison, you know the situation better than most Dallas suburbs do. This is a fully built-out, 4.4-square-mile town completely landlocked inside Dallas. There’s no greenfield left to build on. So when a kitchen in an Addison Circle unit or one of the older apartment buildings along Belt Line Road needs work, it’s a renovation, not a new build. That changes everything about how a remodel should be priced and planned, and it’s why we approach Addison kitchens differently than we would a single-family teardown in a neighboring suburb.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Addison’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Barrett & Sons is owner-operated and has been since 1998. Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck, his sons run the crews, and he answers his own phone. Addison homeowners tell us that’s the difference. They’ve dealt with the other kind before: a national outfit that quoted one number over the phone and showed up with a different one at the door. Our contracts put every allowance and every price change in writing before a single nail moves.
We work throughout Addison, from the Addison Circle mixed-use buildings near Quorum Drive to the apartment communities off Belt Line Road and Arapaho Road. Our Dallas-Fort Worth office coordinates scheduling, but the crews serving Addison are local to the metro and know the Town of Addison’s permit office. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look it up before you sign anything. He wants you to.
Every eligible job gets permits pulled and inspections signed. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, as Tom likes to say. That’s why he likes the inspector. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail box. No out-of-state call center.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Addison
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full kitchen remodel in Addison means tearing out and rebuilding while you keep living in the same tight footprint. In a town with almost no single-family detached housing stock, that footprint is usually a condo, an apartment unit, or one floor of a multifamily building. That’s our normal here. We know what it takes to coordinate deliveries down a shared corridor, keep noise within building hours, and protect common areas while work proceeds. Our Kitchen Remodeling team handles gut-and-rebuild projects from demo to final hardware, with written change orders issued for every scope adjustment along the way.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Most Addison kitchens were originally designed in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the Addison Circle new-urbanist buildings went up. Cabinet runs are often compact, and the original layouts rarely anticipated today’s larger appliances or open-shelf storage preferences. We rethink the footprint within the walls you have, and if a wall does need to move, we check what’s load-bearing before we ever pick up a saw. Layout planning happens with Tom or one of his sons at your kitchen table, not on a screen from another state.
Cabinets & Countertops
Cabinet installation in Addison runs $4,000 to $13,000. Countertop installation runs $2,000 to $6,500. We install KraftMaid cabinets and Cambria quartz among other brands, and we match existing finishes when you’re adding an island or a new run to a partial remodel. On a recent Addison Circle job, we matched the original KraftMaid cabinet finish so the new island blended with the existing perimeter cabinets. You’d never know it wasn’t original.
Small & Partial Kitchen Remodels
Not every Addison kitchen needs a gut job. Small kitchen remodels in Addison typically run $9,000 to $20,000. That covers cabinet refacing or replacement, new counters, a backsplash, and updated fixtures without touching the footprint. For condo owners and landlords in 75001, that’s often the right scope. It avoids opening slab work, keeps the budget contained, and gets a unit back on the rental market or ready for sale in weeks instead of months.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Backsplash installation in Addison runs $800 to $2,500. Tile and flooring choices in Addison units need to handle high humidity from compact kitchens and, in some newer conversions, fluctuating indoor temperatures from radiant slab systems. We steer Addison clients toward tile and grout combinations that stand up to the hot, dry summers and the humidity swings that come with a Dallas August inside a multifamily building.

Trusted Brands We Service in Addison
We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. KraftMaid and Cambria in kitchens. Belgard and Techo-Bloc on hardscapes. GAF and CertainTeed on roofs. Andersen and Marvin on windows. For Addison kitchens specifically, cabinet stock availability is rarely an issue because we order direct and schedule delivery around your building’s freight elevator or loading dock rules. If you’re replacing counters in an Addison apartment, we’ll coordinate the slab drop-off with your building manager so it doesn’t sit in a shared hallway.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Addison Homes
- Code-triggered surprises once walls open. Addison’s multifamily housing stock was largely built in the 1990s and early 2000s. Open a wall and you’re likely to find wiring that predates current GFCI requirements, undersized framing, or failed waterproofing behind the sink. A permit forces the repairs, and the owner didn’t budget for them.
- Clay-soil movement under slab foundations. Addison sits on Blackland Prairie clay. It shrinks in the 100°F+ summers and swells after rain. Cabinets and islands installed without accounting for that seasonal movement can rack, and countertops can crack within two seasons. We check slab conditions before we set anything.
- Multifamily coordination headaches. Work in an Addison Circle unit or a Belt Line Road-adjacent property means dealing with building hours, freight elevators, shared water shutoffs, and HOA rules about dumpster placement. A contractor who only does single-family work in the suburbs will learn these lessons on your dime.
- Hidden prior buildouts behind dropped ceilings. In Addison’s high-turnover restaurant and mixed-use corridor, previous tenants sometimes did unpermitted work. When a residential kitchen remodel uncovers unauthorized electrical or plumbing hidden above a dropped ceiling, it has to be corrected before the Town of Addison signs off. We budget for the inspection first, not the surprise later.

What moves the number? Scope, mostly. A cabinet swap with counters stays low. Opening walls, relocating plumbing, upgrading electrical, or repairing slab movement pushes you toward the higher end. We give written line-item quotes. Every allowance is spelled out in the contract. If something changes once we’re inside, you get a written change order and you approve it before we spend another dollar. That’s not a sales pitch. It’s how Tom has run this company since 1998.
Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate. We’ll walk the space, check what’s behind the walls, and put the number in writing.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Addison
Yes, any kitchen remodel in Addison that touches electrical, plumbing, structural walls, or slab work requires a permit from the Town of Addison. We pull the permit before we start, and we schedule inspections as required. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s exactly why we pull one. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll confirm what your specific scope requires.
Addison’s Blackland Prairie clay shrinks and swells with drought and rain, and that movement transfers directly into your slab. If your existing slab has shifted, new cabinets and stone counters will telegraph that movement as cracks or racked doors. We check slab flatness and any existing cracks before installation and shim cabinets to sit true on the surface as it exists today. For a precise quote on your unit, call (877) 610-1318.
If we open a wall and find outdated wiring, no GFCI protection, or water damage from a failed dishwasher line, we stop and write a change order. You approve the repair cost in writing before we proceed. No surprise invoices at the end. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. We found exactly this behind a wall in Addison Circle, brought the electrical to current code, repaired the subfloor, and got inspection sign-off before closing up. Call (877) 610-1318 to talk through how we handle these situations.
Because Addison’s housing stock is older multifamily construction, and walls hide things. Original 1990s rough-ins, undersized framing, failed waterproofing, and prior unpermitted buildouts all surface once demo starts. Contractors who quote blind and ignore these possibilities are the ones who hand you a different bill at the door. We inspect first and write allowances into your contract so the quote reflects what’s actually behind your walls, not what a salesman hoped was there. For a quote built on a real inspection, call (877) 610-1318.
Yes. A small or partial kitchen remodel in an Addison Circle unit typically runs $9,000 to $20,000 and can usually be completed without disturbing neighboring units. We coordinate water shutoffs with building management, keep materials out of shared corridors, and work within the building’s posted hours. We’ve matched existing KraftMaid finishes on Addison Circle island additions so the new work disappears into the original design. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk your unit to see what’s possible.
