A kitchen that fits your home and your life
Your kitchen sets the tone for your whole home. We start with how you cook, gather and store, then design a layout, cabinetry and finishes that fit the house you have, whether it is a Chicago two-flat, a bungalow or a suburban colonial.
Because we also know Chicago real estate, we help you invest where it adds the most value and skip the upgrades that do not.
Layout and design
Space planning, open-concept conversions and island design, drawn up before any demolition starts.
Custom cabinetry
Custom and semi-custom cabinets, built-in storage and pantry systems, installed level and true.
Counters and backsplash
Quartz, granite and natural stone countertops with tile backsplashes, templated and installed with care.
Flooring
Tile, hardwood and luxury vinyl plank, with the subfloor prepared properly underneath.
Lighting and electrical
Recessed, pendant and under-cabinet lighting, new circuits and code-compliant outlets.
Plumbing and appliances
Sinks, faucets, dishwashers and range hoods connected, vented and tested.
Our process
How your kitchen remodel comes together

You get a layout, material options and a written scope with timeline and cost before work begins.
Step three
Build
Permits, demolition, rough-ins and finishes, with your home protected and the site cleaned daily.
Step four
Final walkthrough
We review every detail together, finish the punch list, and your 12-month limited warranty begins.

Kitchen remodeling across Chicago and the suburbs
We remodel kitchens in Chicago neighborhoods including Logan Square, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Bucktown and Wicker Park, and in Oak Park, Evanston, Skokie, Glenview, Park Ridge, Elmhurst and nearby suburbs. Older homes are our specialty, and we know what to expect behind the walls.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
It depends on the scope. A cabinet and countertop update moves faster than a full layout change with new plumbing and electrical. Your written estimate includes a timeline, and we keep you updated at every stage.
Do you handle permits for kitchen remodels?
Yes. When your project needs a permit, we pull it and schedule the inspections as part of the job.
Can we live at home during the remodel?
Most families do. We protect your floors and the rest of the house, contain dust and clean up at the end of each day. We can also help you plan a temporary kitchen.
Do you help choose cabinets, countertops and finishes?
Yes. We walk you through options that fit your style and budget, and we tell you honestly where it is worth spending more and where it is not.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Our work comes with a 12-month limited warranty, and Home Repair Matters is licensed and insured.
