AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Pompano Beach Highlands
A full kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach Highlands typically runs $14,000 to $45,000, and the price gap between a coastal-spec job and a standard inland quote usually comes down to materials: stainless hardware, sealed quartz, impact-rated windows, and moisture barriers built for a high water table. If you’re pricing kitchens in the 33064 zip, you need numbers from someone who actually works this neighborhood’s housing stock, not a national outfit quoting off a spreadsheet. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been remodeling CBS homes like yours since 1998. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk the job with you ourselves.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Pompano Beach Highlands’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Our Kitchen Remodeling team knows what lurks behind the walls of a 1960s to 1980s CBS home in Pompano Beach Highlands. We pull permits through the Pompano Beach Building Division on every eligible job, and we know that a kitchen permit here frequently triggers a roof-to-wall strap retrofit because Broward County’s wind mitigation inspectors expose the missing hurricane clips on pre-1994 block homes. That’s a cost we put in writing before we start, not a surprise after demolition. Tom Barrett’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable; his sons run the crews, and a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day. When you call about a kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach Highlands, you talk to someone who’s been inside hundreds of these homes.
We answer our own phone because that’s the business we built. No out-of-state call center. No franchise dispatch. The crew that shows up at your door in Pompano Beach Highlands wears our name on their shirts and has been background-checked. If something isn’t right when the job’s done, our 90-Day Done Right Promise means one call brings Tom back to make it right. That’s not a marketing line; it’s written on every contract.
The homeowners we work with in Pompano Beach Highlands have usually been burned before. A national company quoted one price on the phone and a different bill at the door. Or a cut-rate outfit told them permits were optional. Our answer to that is simple: every scope, every allowance, every price change arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and that’s exactly how we like it.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Pompano Beach Highlands
Most kitchens in Pompano Beach Highlands’s modest 1,000 to 1,500 square foot CBS homes weren’t designed for modern living. We rebuild them for how you actually cook, entertain, and live now. Here’s what we do most often in this neighborhood.
Cabinets & Countertops
In Pompano Beach Highlands, we specify cabinet hardware and drawer slides rated for salt humidity and standing moisture, because the ambient air here corrodes inland-spec hinges within two years. Quartz and granite countertops get sealed seams, not just polished surfaces; an unsealed seam wicks moisture from the high water table and relentless afternoon rain, and that’s how you get hairline cracks and mold along the slab edge. We install KraftMaid and Cambria because you can look those brands up yourself, not because they were cheapest off a van.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Many original kitchens in Pompano Beach Highlands carry jalousie windows and a layout built for a 1970s family, not for how a couple cooks today. We redesign the working triangle, add a proper island where the floor plan allows, and route plumbing and electrical through block walls without cutting corners that’ll bite you later. Every design gets priced with the coastal-spec materials this neighborhood demands, not the inland price you’d get in a generic quote.
Tile & Flooring
Laminate and vinyl flooring warp and delaminate when moisture rises through the concrete slab, and that’s a chronic condition on Pompano Beach Highlands’s nearly zero-grade lots. We install tile and flooring with proper vapor barriers, and we slope floor drains where the slab edge stays saturated after a South Florida downpour. A kitchen floor that feels damp near the exterior wall after a remodel is usually a sign someone skipped the barrier; we don’t skip it.
Kitchen Island Installation
A kitchen island in a Pompano Beach Highlands home usually means running electrical and plumbing through a concrete slab with a high water table underneath. We handle the slab work properly, seal the countertop seams, and anchor the island on hardware that won’t rust from ambient salt humidity. You get a centerpiece that holds up for decades, not a shortcut that shows rust stains in three years.

Trusted Brands We Service in Pompano Beach Highlands
We install Simonton and PGT impact-rated windows when a kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach Highlands touches an exterior opening, because Broward County code and your insurance carrier both care about wind-load ratings, and because a marine-grade aluminum frame is the only sensible choice in this salt-air environment. We stock and specify materials you can look up yourself: KraftMaid and Cambria in kitchens, and the same premium-brand discipline carries across every trade we touch. On a kitchen remodel in the Highlands’ 33064 zip, we opened a wall to relocate a sink rough-in and found the original jalousie window frame corroded past repair from years of ambient salt humidity. Our crew replaced it with an impact-rated, marine-grade PGT window before closing the wall, then installed solid stainless cabinet hardware and a sealed quartz countertop. The inland-spec alternative would have failed within five years.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Pompano Beach Highlands Homes
- Rusted cabinet hinges and seized drawer slides: Salt humidity from the Atlantic, even several miles inland, corrodes inland-spec hardware fast. We install stainless or marine-grade hardware on every job in Pompano Beach Highlands.
- Unsealed quartz or granite countertops wicking moisture: The high water table and nearly zero-grade lots mean slab-edge saturation is normal here. Sealed seams and proper moisture barriers are non-negotiable.
- Warped laminate cabinets and vinyl flooring: Moisture rising through the concrete slab delaminates cheap materials. We build with the assumption that water will be present at the slab, because in Pompano Beach Highlands it always is.
- Kicking off a permit and discovering missing hurricane straps: Pre-1994 CBS homes almost always trigger a roof-to-wall strap retrofit when a kitchen remodel permit gets pulled through the Pompano Beach Building Division. We tell you before the permit application goes in, not after demolition starts.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Pompano Beach Highlands
Because pulling a kitchen permit through the Pompano Beach Building Division triggers a wind-load review on pre-1994 CBS homes, and Broward County’s wind mitigation process routinely exposes the absence of hurricane clips connecting roof trusses to block walls. The retrofit is mandatory before the inspector will sign off, and it’s a fixed cost that has nothing to do with your cabinets. We put it in writing before your permit application goes in, so it’s never a surprise. Call (877) 610-1318 if you want us to check whether your home is likely to require one before you budget.
Plywood cabinet boxes with marine-grade or stainless hardware hold up; particleboard boxes with nickel-plated hinges do not. We specify stainless or hot-dip hardware on every job in Pompano Beach Highlands because inland-spec hinges and slides seize from salt humidity within two years. For countertops, sealed quartz outperforms unsealed stone in this environment. For an exact material list with prices, call (877) 610-1318; our estimates are free.
Plan on 10% to 20% above what an inland quote would show, driven by stainless hardware, sealed-seam countertops, impact-rated windows if exterior openings are touched, and vapor barriers under flooring. A standard inland kitchen might price at $14,000; the coastal-spec version of that same job in Pompano Beach Highlands often lands around $16,000 to $19,000. The cheap spec saves you money today and costs you more within a decade. Call (877) 610-1318 for a line-item quote specific to your home.
Yes. If your kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach Highlands touches an exterior window opening, Broward County’s current code requires impact-rated or protected windows, period. You can’t install a non-impact window as a replacement and pass inspection. We specify PGT, Simonton, or equivalent impact-rated units, and we price them as part of the written scope before work starts. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you exactly what your permit will require.
Because someone skipped the vapor barrier under your tile or flooring, and moisture is rising through the concrete slab. Pompano Beach Highlands sits on a high water table with nearly zero-grade lots, so slab-edge saturation after a South Florida rainstorm is normal here. The right fix is to pull the affected flooring, install a proper moisture barrier, and re-lay the material with sealed perimeter joints. We do it right the first time; if a previous contractor didn’t, our 90-Day Done Right Promise covers our own work, and we’ll quote the repair honestly. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come look at it, no trip charge inside the county.
