We have been remodeling kitchens in this corner of Miami-Dade long enough to know that Kendall West is different from the rest of the county. You are at the western edge of the built environment, hard against the Everglades buffer. That changes how a kitchen gets remodeled. Our crews work the 33193 area constantly, and we know the homes off SW 157th Avenue, the streets around Kendall Drive, and the subdivisions off SW 88th Street. When we quote a job, we quote it for Kendall West, not for a generic Miami address a few miles east.

Key Takeaways for Kendall West Homeowners

• Full kitchen remodels in Kendall West range $14,000-$45,000; small or partial remodels run $9,000-$20,000.
• Kendall West homes sit on oolitic limestone with a high water table, so moving a sink or adding an island often requires slab and drainage work.
• Homes built before 1992 routinely trigger wind-load and tie-down upgrades during a permitted remodel, even if you are only touching the kitchen.
• Miami-Dade requires a Notice of Acceptance (NOA) for many materials, and western-corridor inspectors reject statewide-only approvals.
• Every Barrett & Sons kitchen job includes permits pulled, inspections signed, and written change orders before any scope changes on paper, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Kendall West’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company

Tom Barrett founded Barrett & Sons Construction in 1998, and his sons run the crews that remodel kitchens in Kendall West. This is not a franchise that hands your project to whoever is available. When you call (877) 610-1318, a live person answers. When a crew arrives, it is Tom’s sons and their teams, background-checked and carrying the Barrett & Sons name on the truck. Tom publishes his name, address, and license number. Look him up before you sign anything.

Kendall West homeowners have told us the same story for years: a company quoted one price on the phone, then delivered a different bill after the cabinets were already out. That is not how we work. Every scope, every allowance, and every price change arrives in writing before work happens. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and on every eligible kitchen remodel we pull the permit and get the inspection signed. If the job is not done right, the 90-Day Done Right Promise means one call brings Tom back.

We serve the entire Kendall West area, from the neighborhood streets around Kendall Lakes Park down to the communities near Country Walk. Our kitchen crews are in the 33193 zip code most weeks, and scheduling is coordinated from our Miami office. We know which county inspectors review work along this corridor and what they look for on a permitted kitchen job. That local knowledge is the difference between a remodel that passes inspection on the first visit and one that stalls for weeks.

Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Kendall West

Full Kitchen Remodeling

A full kitchen remodel in Kendall West means gutting the space and rebuilding it around how your family actually cooks. In these 1985-2000 CBS homes, that often involves removing a load-bearing wall, relocating plumbing through limestone, and correcting drainage that was never right to begin with. Our Kitchen Remodeling team scope every allowance in writing before demo starts, including the slab work most contractors do not mention until it shows up as a surprise invoice. A full kitchen remodel here runs $14,000 to $45,000 depending on footprint, structural work, and material choices.

Kitchen Design & Layout

Kendall West kitchens were built in an era when the layout was built around a peninsula and a fluorescent box. We redesign the space for the way people cook now, adding islands where the slab allows it, moving ranges and sinks only after we verify drainage and ventilation. In Kendall West, the high water table and flat limestone mean we cannot always put a sink on an island without re-grading and thickened-edge work. We tell you that before quoting, not after.

Quartz & Granite Countertops

Countertop installation in Kendall West runs $2,000 to $6,500 depending on material and square footage. We install quartz and granite from brands you can look up, and we template every top on site so the seams line up with your cabinets, not with someone else’s guess. Miami-Dade’s humidity does not warp stone, but it does trigger expansion and contraction in the cabinetry below, so we level cabinets before setting tops. That step is not optional in Kendall West.

Cabinets & Countertops

Cabinet installation in Kendall West runs $4,000 to $13,000, depending on whether you are refacing, replacing, or building custom. In homes built in the late 1980s and early 1990s, we often find the original cabinet boxes are still structurally sound but the faces and hardware are shot. We will tell you honestly if refacing makes sense, and we will put it in writing. If the cabinets are going to bear a quartz top on an island, the framing under them matters more than the door style.

Backsplash, Tile & Flooring

Backsplash installation in Kendall West runs $800 to $2,500. We carry tile from manufacturers with Miami-Dade NOA approvals, because the inspectors in this western corridor reject materials that only carry statewide Florida approval. That is a code quirk that has caught more than one out-of-county contractor mid-job. For flooring, we account for slab moisture: Kendall West’s high water table means we test before we tile, and we use the right underlayment so your grout lines do not start cracking in year two.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall West

We install and service our Windows & Doors in Kendall West from Simonton, Ply Gem, and PGT. Many kitchens here open directly to a patio or pool deck, so the door you choose has to hold up under South Florida sun and hurricane season. PGT’s impact-rated products in particular are built for the Miami-Dade NOA system, which matters in Kendall West more than almost anywhere else in the state. If you are replacing a kitchen window or adding a sliding door as part of the remodel, we will spec a material the inspector approves on first review, so your remodel does not stall at final inspection.

Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Kendall West Homes

• Slab drainage on flat limestone lots: Kendall West’s terrain is so flat and the rock so shallow that even a modest grading error turns a new kitchen addition into a standing-water zone. We run drainage before foundation work, because a cracked slab two years later is a lot more expensive than a survey today.
• Pre-1992 tie-down gaps: Homes in Kendall West built before Hurricane Andrew often lack the roof-to-wall strapping Miami-Dade now requires. When we touch a load-bearing wall in a permitted remodel, the county may require those upgrades, and we budget for them in the quote so they do not arrive as a change order surprise.
• Materials without Miami-Dade NOA: Out-of-county contractors regularly show up with products that have Florida statewide approval but no Miami-Dade NOA. Western-corridor inspectors reject them on sight, and the homeowner pays to tear out and replace. We stock and spec NOA-approved materials from the first day.
• Water table surprises under the sink: The water table in Kendall West sits high, and moving a sink across the room is not always a simple plumbing rough-in. When a 1994 CBS home off SW 157th Avenue wanted a sink relocated to an island, we core-drilled through limestone, set the island on a thickened edge with rebar dowels, and wrote every step before cutting. Final inspection passed on the first visit.
