Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come look at yours.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is North Richland Hills’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
We’re the owner-operated crew that answers the phone and shows up with the same face every time. Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the jobs in North Richland Hills today. You won’t get a sales rep from out of state, and you won’t get a different crew every week. You’ll get the same people who gave you the quote, walking your kitchen every morning until the inspection is signed off.
The permit inspector works for you, not for us. That’s the way we like it, because it means nobody cuts a corner and calls it finished. Every kitchen remodel we run in NRH includes permits pulled and inspections signed on every eligible job. If a change comes up, it comes to you in writing as a change order before a single nail moves. No surprise invoices at the end, because an allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date.
We also publish Tom Barrett’s name, address, and license number. Look it up before you sign anything. That’s not a flex; it’s the only way a homeowner in North Richland Hills should hire. Our standing offers in this area are simple: free second opinions on any written estimate, no trip charge inside the county, $40 off any repair over $200, and a permanent 10% senior and veteran discount.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in North Richland Hills
Kitchen Design & Layout
In the older 76180 homes west of Rufe Snow Drive, the original kitchen layouts were built around 1970s traffic patterns and tight cabinet runs that don’t match how people cook now. We rework those layouts with the post-tension slab in mind from the first sketch, so the sink, island, and gas line land where the slab allows without a five-figure gamble. For the newer 76182 builds along Davis Boulevard and Precinct Line Road, the work shifts to higher-end finishes and HOA design standards, which we scope in writing before you sign.
Quartz & Granite Countertops
Countertop installation in North Richland Hills typically runs $2,000 to $6,500 depending on slab size, edge profile, and whether you’re doing a waterfall island or a standard overhang. We carry Cambria quartz and a range of granite options, and we template every top after the cabinets are set, not before. That sequencing matters in NRH because older slabs aren’t always flat; we measure, shim, and level before the fabricator cuts anything.
Cabinets & Countertops
Cabinet installation in North Richland Hills runs roughly $4,000 to $13,000 for a typical kitchen, depending on whether you’re refacing existing boxes or replacing everything with new semi-custom or custom cabs. We install KraftMaid among other brands you can look up yourself. On the 1960s and 1970s brick ranches in 76180, we often find the existing cabinet boxes are out of square by a half inch or more, so we check the walls and floors before we order doors and drawer fronts.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Backsplash work in North Richland Hills runs $800 to $2,500 for a standard kitchen, and tile flooring adds from there depending on footage and material. We use Schluter underlayment systems on tile floors to manage movement, which matters directly on the expansive clay soils that run through NRH. If the slab moves, the tile shouldn’t crack along with it. We spec the underlayment into the written quote so it’s not an afterthought.

Trusted Brands We Service in North Richland Hills
We’re not a one-brand shop, but we don’t install mystery materials off a van either. For North Richland Hills kitchens, we regularly work with Cambria quartz, KraftMaid cabinetry, and Schluter waterproofing and uncoupling systems on tile. When you get the written scope, it names the brands, the line items, and the allowance amounts. You can look any of them up before you sign. That’s the whole point of scoping it on paper.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in North Richland Hills Homes
- Post-tension cable slabs in the 76180 ZIP. Older homes in North Richland Hills west of Rufe Snow Drive were commonly built on tensioned concrete slabs from the 1970s onward. Cutting or coring into one without a cable locator can sever a strand, void the slab warranty, and run into five figures to remediate. We locate before we bid, not after we cut.
- Expansive clay movement under newer additions. The soils around NRH shift between Cross Timbers sandy loam and Blackland Prairie-adjacent clays. Drought then rain cycles make the ground move, and kitchens on slab see the result in cracked grout lines and counter seams. We write a soil-conditioning and grading plan into the scope when the site calls for it.
- Under-scoped island rough-ins. When the original drain stub sits 18 inches from the new island location in a 76180 ranch kitchen, the job isn’t a simple tie-in; it’s saw-cutting and line rerouting. Out-of-area crews routinely miss that on the estimate. We catch it in the walkthrough because we’ve done it too many times in NRH to guess.
- HOA design review in 76182. Newer subdivisions along Davis Boulevard and Precinct Line Road have active HOA design standards that apply to kitchens when work touches windows, vents, or exterior walls. We’ll tell you if your project triggers a review before you sign, and we prepare the submittal package so you’re not scrambling later.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in North Richland Hills
Yes, and you should not sign with a contractor who skips this step. Any penetration into a post-tension slab in the 76180 ZIP of North Richland Hills, whether for island anchoring, plumbing rough-in, or floor leveling, should start with a cable locator survey. Severing a tensioned strand voids the slab warranty and commonly triggers five-figure structural remediation. We run the locator before we write the scope, and the line item is in your quote. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule a walkthrough.
Because soils in the 76182 corridor of North Richland Hills sit on expansive clays that shrink and swell with wet-dry cycles, and a slab that moves will crack grout lines, counter seams, and tile set over it. Soil conditioning and proper grading aren’t add-ons; they’re what stops a new kitchen from failing in two seasons. We write it into the quote when the lot calls for it, and we explain why in plain terms. Get your exact number by calling (877) 610-1318.
If the contractor cut without locating first, the structural repair sits with them, and the slab warranty may already be voided regardless of who pays. If a homeowner or unlicensed handyman hits the cable, the owner absorbs the repair and the warranty loss. That’s the reason we locate before we cut on every 76180 remodel in North Richland Hills and why we never subcontract that step out. If you’re unsure about your current contractor’s cable plan, call us for a free second opinion at (877) 610-1318.
They can, and it depends on the HOA’s architectural guidelines and whether your remodel touches windows, exterior doors, venting, or any element visible from the street. Some North Richland Hills HOAs in the 76182 ZIP require an application and approval before work starts. We check the governing documents during scoping and prepare the submittal so approval doesn’t hold up your countertop date. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll confirm what applies to your home.
Most full kitchen remodels in the older 76180 ranch homes of North Richland Hills run $14,000 to $45,000, with the wider spread driven by whether you’re moving plumbing, cutting slab for an island, or working around a post-tension cable field on the lower end of that range. A straight cabinet and countertop replacement with no layout changes sits at the lower end. A full gut with island, new rough-in, and slab work runs higher. Call (877) 610-1318 for a written, line-itemed estimate on your house.
