AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across North Las Vegas
A full kitchen remodel in North Las Vegas typically runs $14,000 to $45,000, with smaller partial remodels landing between $9,000 and $20,000. Most projects take four to eight weeks depending on whether you’re dealing with the older ranch homes in 89030 or the newer production builds up in 89084. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve spent years navigating the City of North Las Vegas Building & Safety office, the caliche hardpan under your slab, and the specific permit headaches that come with homes in this valley. Call us at (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk you through exactly what your kitchen needs.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is North Las Vegas’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and he still answers his own phone. That matters in North Las Vegas, where homeowners have dealt with too many out-of-state outfits that quote one number and invoice another. Tom’s sons run the crews, and someone with the Barrett name is on-site most days. When we tell you a price for Kitchen Remodeling in North Las Vegas, that price holds unless you approve a written change order first.
We’ve remodeled kitchens all over this city, from the 1970s stucco ranchers near Cheyenne Avenue to the newer homes up near Aliante. We know the inspectors at the North Las Vegas Building & Safety office by name, and we know which questions they’ll ask before we even pull the permit. Every eligible job gets permits pulled and inspections signed. That’s not optional for us, and it shouldn’t be optional for anyone you hire. Ask anyone on your street, or look up Tom Barrett’s license number yourself. We want you to.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in North Las Vegas
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full gut-and-rebuild in North Las Vegas means tearing down to the studs, and that’s where local knowledge saves you money. Homes in the 89030 and 89031 ZIP codes frequently have unpermitted work from the foreclosure era hiding behind the drywall. If we find it, we help you document and permit it through NLV’s own office so your final inspection doesn’t stall. A full remodel covers layout changes, electrical, plumbing, drywall, flooring, cabinets, counters, and lighting. The cost range here runs $14,000 to $45,000, with high-end projects pushing to $65,000 if you’re adding structural changes or premium stone.
Cabinets & Countertops
We install KraftMaid cabinetry and Cambria quartz, brands you can look up before you ever sign a contract. For North Las Vegas homes built between 2003 and 2008, we often see thermofoil cabinets that have delaminated from years of dry desert heat cycling. Replacing those with solid wood or plywood-box cabinets changes how the whole kitchen feels. Cabinet installation alone runs $4,000 to $13,000 depending on linear footage and whether we’re refacing or pulling everything out. Countertop installation runs $2,000 to $6,500 for quartz or granite, including templating and installation.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Backsplash work in North Las Vegas kitchens runs $800 to $2,500 for standard layouts, and we handle everything from simple subway tile to full-height quartz slab backsplashes. Tile flooring costs more here than you might expect because the caliche under older homes causes slab movement that cracks cheap tile. We use uncoupling membranes and proper mortar beds so your floor doesn’t fail two years after the remodel. It’s the kind of thing a contractor from across the valley might skip because they don’t know the ground they’re building on.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Most North Las Vegas ranchers from the 1960s through 1980s have galley kitchens with a load-bearing wall between the kitchen and dining room. Opening that wall changes everything, but it requires a structural engineer, a permit, and a beam spec that the City of North Las Vegas will actually approve. We handle that process from start to finish. Our Kitchen Remodeling team designs around how your household actually cooks, not what looks good in a catalog. Tom walks every job site with you before we finalize plans, because the layout has to work for your life, not a magazine spread.

Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in North Las Vegas Homes
- Caliche hardpan under the slab. North Las Vegas sits on a cemented calcium-carbonate layer 12 to 24 inches below grade. Any plumbing relocation, island footing, or utility rough-in requires jackhammering or chemical treatment, which adds days and cost to your project. Contractors who don’t know this price it wrong on the front end, and you pay for their ignorance later.
- Unpermitted work from the foreclosure era. In the 89030 and 89031 ZIP codes, many homes got garage conversions or unpermitted room additions during the 2008 downturn. If we’re remodeling a kitchen attached to that work, the City of North Las Vegas will flag it on inspection. We help you retroactively permit and document it before the certificate of occupancy stalls.
- Fast-set stucco with hairline cracking. The 2003 to 2008 production builds in the northern master-planned ZIP codes were built fast, and the stucco shows it. If your kitchen remodel touches an exterior wall, we’ll inspect for water intrusion before we open anything up.
- Undersized insulation for 115°F summers. Many North Las Vegas homes have R-values that treat the Mojave sun like a mild inconvenience. When we open kitchen walls, we often find fiberglass that’s settled or compressed. We’ll recommend insulation upgrades while the walls are open, before the drywall goes back up, because redoing it later costs double.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in North Las Vegas
For most North Las Vegas kitchens, we can begin within two to four weeks of a signed contract and approved permit. The City of North Las Vegas Building & Safety typically reviews permits in one to two weeks for straightforward scopes, though unpermitted work from the foreclosure era can extend that timeline. Call (877) 610-1318 and Tom will give you a straight answer for your specific project.
Yes. We work across 89087, 89030, 89031, 89032, and the surrounding valley. From the older core near Civic Center Drive up to the master-planned communities near Aliante Parkway, our crews know the streets and the homes on them. No neighborhood is too small and no job is too far for us to give you a written estimate.
Sometimes, because the caliche hardpan under North Las Vegas adds excavation cost to any project that moves plumbing or pours new footings. You’ll also deal with a separate City of North Las Vegas permit process that requires more documentation than unincorporated Clark County. Those differences can add $1,500 to $4,000 to a remodel compared to neighboring jurisdictions, but the right contractor plans for it instead of surprising you mid-project. Call (877) 610-1318 for an honest breakdown.
Every kitchen remodel we complete in North Las Vegas carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, you call Tom and he comes back and makes it right. That promise is on the contract, not buried in fine print, and it applies to workmanship on every project we finish in this city.
Only if the scope changes and you approve it in writing first. We don’t work any other way. If we open a wall and find unpermitted work from the foreclosure era, or caliche that requires jackhammering beyond our original estimate, you’ll get a written change order with the exact cost before we move forward. The price on our contract is the price you pay, unless you sign off on something different. That’s how Tom has run this company since 1998, and it’s why North Las Vegas homeowners call us back.
