AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Lauderdale Lakes
A full kitchen remodel in Lauderdale Lakes typically runs $14,000-$45,000, with smaller partial remodels starting near $9,000, and most projects take four to eight weeks once permits clear. We work throughout the 33313 ZIP code, so whether you’re off West Oakland Park Boulevard near the Lakes Mall or tucked into a quiet pocket by NW 44th Street, our crew knows your streets. If you’re tired of living with a kitchen that fights you every morning, call Tom Barrett at (877) 610-1318, and he’ll come out, look at what you’ve got, and give you a written line-item estimate before anything gets touched.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Lauderdale Lakes’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett has been running job sites in Broward County since 1998, and he’s built Kitchen Remodeling teams that work the same way he does: show up when they say, write down every change before they make it, and leave the permit inspection passed. His sons run the crews, not a dispatcher who’s never been south of Orlando. When a kitchen in Lauderdale Lakes gets opened up, what’s behind the walls matters, and our crew has seen enough 1960s CBS construction to know what’s coming before the drywall drops.
Calls to our office get answered by a live person, any hour, seven days a week. Not a voicemail. Not a call center in another state. The same people who will sign your contract answer the phone. Tom publishes his name, address, and license number, so before you sign anything, ask anyone on your street or look his license up yourself. Every job carries a written 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, one call brings Tom back.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Lauderdale Lakes
Full Kitchen Remodeling
We gut and rebuild kitchens in Lauderdale Lakes homes from floor to ceiling. Since most of the city’s single-story CBS houses went up between 1960 and 1982, the original electrical panels are frequently undersized for modern cooktops and wall ovens. We plan for that on the front end, not mid-demolition. Your old kitchen becomes a working space again, with every permit pulled and every inspection signed by Broward County.
Cabinets & Countertops
In Lauderdale Lakes kitchens, we regularly install KraftMaid cabinetry and Cambria quartz. You pick the door style and finish; our team handles measuring, templating, and installation. If your existing cabinet boxes are still square and dry, refacing runs significantly less than full replacement, and we’ll tell you honestly which path makes sense for your space.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Humidity is a constant in Lauderdale Lakes, especially from May through October, and it changes what we recommend for kitchen tile work. We use moisture-rated grout and backer board on every backsplash and floor install, because the flat coastal plain here holds humidity against walls long after the afternoon thunderstorm rolls out. Your floor prep gets the same attention the tile itself does.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Many Lauderdale Lakes kitchens were framed for a 1970 floor plan: a cramped galley, a single ceiling fixture, and no island. We redesign those spaces to work for how people actually cook now. That often means moving the sink off the outside wall, adding a kitchen island, or opening a load-bearing wall and adding a properly sized beam, permitted and inspected. We draw it, we pull the permit, and we show you the plan before demolition starts.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lauderdale Lakes
We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands pulled off a van. In Lauderdale Lakes kitchens, that means KraftMaid cabinets and Cambria countertops, and we’ll quote the exact product line in your written estimate so you know what you’re paying for before the first cabinet arrives. We order everything locally through Broward County suppliers, so if a door is delayed or a slab needs re-cut, we’re not waiting on a truck from out of state to fix it.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Lauderdale Lakes Homes
- Undersized electrical panels. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often have 100-amp panels, and when you add an induction cooktop, double wall oven, and under-cabinet lighting, the math catches up fast. Broward County inspectors will flag it, so we quote the panel upgrade as a written line item before we ever open the wall.
- Water damage hidden behind original kitchen cabinets. The water table in Lauderdale Lakes sits just two to three feet below grade, and slab-on-grade homes move moisture upward. We regularly pull 40-year-old base cabinets and find rotted bottom plates and swollen drywall the homeowner never saw until the countertop came off.
- Old jalousie-style or aluminum windows over the sink. Windows original to 1970s homes don’t meet current wind-mitigation standards, and when a kitchen remodel touches that wall, the inspector will call it. We coordinate the window swap as part of your remodel so you’re not hit with a surprise correction at final inspection.
- Layered flooring that’s worn through to the slab. Many Lauderdale Lakes kitchens have original terrazzo or thin vinyl over concrete with years of patched sections. When we pull it up, the slab sometimes needs leveling, and we account for that in the written estimate rather than discovering it mid-job and sending a change order you didn’t plan for.
Pricing for Kitchen Remodeling in Lauderdale Lakes, FL
A complete kitchen remodel in Lauderdale Lakes runs $14,000-$45,000 for most single-family homes. A smaller partial remodel, like new cabinets and countertops in a galley layout, typically lands between $9,000 and $20,000. If you’re only replacing countertops, budget $2,000-$6,500; a new backsplash alone runs $800-$2,500. A custom kitchen island usually falls between $3,000 and $10,000, depending on size and whether it needs plumbing for a prep sink.
Three things swing your number most: whether the load-bearing wall comes out, how much electrical work the panel needs, and whether hidden water damage surfaces behind the old cabinets. Every estimate from us arrives as a written line-item document with your exact scope, allowances in writing, and every change issued as a signed change order before work proceeds. No surprise invoices at the end. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free in-home estimate in Lauderdale Lakes.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Lauderdale Lakes
Permits through Broward County typically take one to three weeks once plans are submitted, and we often begin demolition within a week after that. Call (877) 610-1318 and Tom will give you a realistic start window for your specific project.
We work throughout the 33313 ZIP code, including the single-family neighborhoods south of West Oakland Park Boulevard and the garden-apartment areas east of State Road 7. We don’t do common-area work for property-management turnover jobs, but for owner-occupied units and standalone homes, we’ll come to any address in the city.
Not unless you change the scope. Every allowance and every change order is written down and signed before we move a single cabinet, and nothing gets added to your invoice without your signature. That’s how we’ve run job sites since 1998, and it’s why homeowners who’ve been burned by national outfits call us the second time around.
Pricing is essentially flat across Broward County, with Lauderdale Lakes projects typically falling in the same $14,000-$45,000 range as Lauderhill or Plantation. What changes the estimate is the age of your house: older CBS homes with original electrical panels and water-weakened framing sometimes run higher than same-sized kitchens in newer construction. Call (877) 610-1318 for a written quote specific to your house.
Yes, every kitchen remodel we complete carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on the contract. If anything isn’t done right, one call brings Tom back. Most of our customers don’t need to make that call, but the promise is there whether you live on NW 39th Street or beside the county facilities off 41st.
