AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Naples
Kitchen remodeling in Naples, FL typically runs $14,000 to $45,000 for a full project, with high-end work in Old Naples and Port Royal reaching well beyond that as part of the post-Ian rebuild wave. Most Naples kitchens take 8 to 16 weeks from permit to punch list, and the schedule is driven more by cabinet and quartz lead times than by labor. If you’re planning a kitchen remodel in Naples, call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a straight written quote with every allowance locked before we order anything.
We’ve been working in Naples long enough to know that this market doesn’t behave like other Florida cities. The water table sits 18 to 24 inches below grade in much of the city. The Collier County permit office still carries post-Ian inspection backlogs. And the homes we walk into range from 1960s CBS cottages off Bayshore Drive to elevated luxury rebuilds in Port Royal. That local knowledge changes how we sequence a kitchen, what we order first, and what we put in writing before demolition starts.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Naples’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998 and never built it into a franchise. His sons run the crews, and Tom’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. When something goes sideways on a Naples job, you call one number and you reach a live person, 24/7. Not a call center. Not a voicemail box.
Naples homeowners tend to be people who’ve already been burned once. They hired a national outfit that quoted one price on the phone and showed up with another. So when we say every allowance, every scope change, every price adjustment arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves, it’s not marketing language. It’s how we’ve kept our reputation intact in places like Naples for over 29 years.
Our crews carry the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts and are background-checked. When they walk into a Naples kitchen, they’re accountable to the person whose name is on the truck. That’s different from a franchise dispatching strangers from three counties away. And every completed job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right, one call.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Naples
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full kitchen remodel in Naples means gutting to the studs, reworking rough-in plumbing and electrical, and rebuilding to a spec that matches the neighborhood. In 34102 and 34103, we’re often working inside scrape-and-rebuild projects where the slab is elevated, the window package is impact-rated, and the finish level is custom. We pull permits and we walk with the inspector on every single job. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and that’s exactly why I want him on site.
Cabinets & Countertops
Custom cabinetry and quartz are where Naples kitchens succeed or stall. We order Wellborn custom cabinetry and Cambria quartz before demolition starts, not after rough-in, because an 18-week lead time doesn’t wait for the electrician to finish. In Naples, ordering late means you lose your kitchen during peak entertaining months, and that’s a punch list problem nobody wants to explain to the dinner guests.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Naples humidity and salt air are hard on grout, fasteners, and anything that absorbs moisture. We spec materials and membranes that hold up to brackish canal air and the constant humidity that inland contractors typically underestimate. Whether it’s a glass backsplash in a Pelican Bay condo or large-format porcelain tile in a North Naples golf home, we write the exact materials into the contract before work begins.
Kitchen Design & Layout
High-end Naples kitchens live or die at the design stage. We coordinate directly with architects and designers on the long-lead items: custom millwork, architectural glass, specialty finishes, imported ranges. On a recent Old Naples rebuild, we reconstructed a 1962 CBS cottage kitchen after storm surge, elevated the slab, replaced the entire rough-in for a Kohler fixture package, and ordered impact-rated windows 18 weeks ahead. Pre-ordered Cambria quartz and Wellborn cabinetry meant the only schedule hold was the county’s electrical inspection sign-off, not a change order.
Kitchen Island Installation
A custom island in Naples often involves plumbing for a prep sink, electrical for a pop-up outlet, and a slab that has to account for hydrostatic pressure coming up through the grade. We handle all of it, from the engineered slab pour to the quartz or granite top. In high-water-table areas across 34103 and 34104, we coordinate dewatering during underground work so the slab doesn’t crack later.

Trusted Brands We Service in Naples
We’re not a kitchen company that installs mystery brands off a van. We install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria quartz, and Kohler fixtures, so Naples homeowners can look up exactly what they’re paying for. Brands like Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers show up on the hardscape side of our Kitchen Remodeling work when a Naples homeowner extends the project outside, which happens a lot with open-air entertaining spaces. But the point isn’t the brand list. It’s that every material is named and priced in writing before we order it.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Naples Homes
- Allowance items left floating. The owner budgets $5,000 for a range hood and the imported Italian model actually costs $9,800. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. We lock every allowance to a written spec before the contract is signed.
- Demolition before the permit. A contractor starts demo before the Collier County permit is issued, then the inspection backlog hits and the kitchen sits gutted for months, exposed to salt air and humidity while the draw schedule stalls. We front-load documentation before pulling the permit.
- Cabinets and quartz ordered late. The custom Cambria island slab and Wellborn cabinetry get ordered after rough-in, and the lead time pushes the job past season. We place those orders at contract signing.
- Slab work that ignores the water table. Naples sits on a water table as shallow as 18 inches in places. Without dewatering and proper slab design, a new island or built-in appliance base will crack. We’ve fixed enough of those to know what to do from day one.

What moves a Naples kitchen toward the top of that range? Custom cabinetry with specialty finishes, architectural glass, imported appliances, slab quartz with waterfall edges, and structural work tied to elevation or the water table. What moves it toward the bottom? Refacing existing boxes, keeping the existing layout, and choosing stock-grade materials. Either way, the price is fixed in writing before we order anything, and every change arrives as a written change order. That’s not a favor. That’s how Naples homeowners avoid the surprise invoice at the end.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Naples
The Collier County permit office still carries inspection backlogs from the post-Ian surge, so the front end of your job has to be handled differently than it was in 2019. We front-load documentation before pulling the permit: pre-engineered truss packages where relevant, third-party wind-load calcs, elevation certificates. That way the permit doesn’t stall waiting on paperwork that should have been filed on day one. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your project needs before anything gets demoed.
Because custom Wellborn cabinetry and Cambria quartz can carry 12 to 18 week lead times, and demolition takes two days. If you order after rough-in, your kitchen sits empty through season while the slab and boxes are still in production. In Naples, where the entertaining calendar runs from November to April, losing a kitchen during peak months is a real cost. We order at contract signing and build the schedule around the longest lead item. Call (877) 610-1318 for a written timeline before you commit.
You can get a fixed price if every allowance is locked to a written spec before the contract is signed. The change orders that eat budgets come from allowances that were left floating: the imported range, the specialty glass backsplash, the upgraded cabinet finish. We’ll write every one of those into the contract with a named brand and a dollar figure. If something changes after that, you get a written change order before work proceeds, and you approve it before we touch it. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll show you an actual contract template so you can see how it reads.
Yes, and it’s one of the most overlooked line items in Naples kitchen work. The water table sits as little as 18 to 24 inches below grade in many areas, so any slab work under an island, a built-in fridge wall, or a range base has to account for hydrostatic pressure and often requires active dewatering during the pour. Skip that and you’ll see slab cracks within a couple of seasons. We’ve done enough of these to know exactly what the county inspector wants to see. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll explain what your specific lot needs.
Realistically, $25,000 to $45,000 for a kitchen with custom cabinetry, slab quartz counters, and a redesigned layout. At the upper end of that, you’re adding an island with plumbing, specialty finishes, and maybe structural work tied to elevation or the water table. At the lower end, refacing existing boxes and keeping the layout lands closer to $14,000 to $25,000. Your exact number depends on what we write into the contract, not what someone guesses on the phone. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate and we’ll put it in writing.
