Where It Starts
Start With What Is Not Working
Every kitchen remodel starts with a different problem. Some kitchens have enough space but poor storage. Others have a small island, a crowded work triangle or no real connection to the dining and living areas.
The right scope comes from the existing kitchen, not a standard package. Sometimes better cabinets and a reworked layout solve the problem inside the current footprint. Other times, opening a wall or moving the sink and range makes the bigger difference.
Custom Cabinetry
Custom Kitchen Cabinets in Redmond
Cabinetry decides how a kitchen works day to day. It controls where things are stored, where appliances sit, how much counter space you get and how easily people move through the room.
Custom cabinets let the layout fit the room and the household instead of a catalog of standard sizes. Storage goes where it is used: pots near the range, dishes near the dishwasher, pantry items near prep space.
Planning can include tall pantry cabinets, deep drawers instead of base shelves, pull-outs for trash and recycling, corner solutions, appliance garages, integrated panels and built-ins for awkward walls.
Cabinet dimensions also affect countertops, plumbing, electrical outlets, lighting and walking clearances. That is why CHC Remodel plans cabinetry early, together with the rest of the kitchen.

Islands + Countertops
Islands, Countertops and Work Zones
An island can add prep space, seating and storage, but only if the room can support it. Clearances around the island, the location of the sink or cooktop, and where people walk all affect whether it helps or gets in the way.
Countertops are planned with the cabinets, not after them. Seams, overhangs for seating, sink and cooktop cutouts and backsplash details all depend on cabinet layout.
Layout Changes
Opening Up a Redmond Kitchen
Many homeowners want a kitchen that connects to the family room or dining area. Removing or widening a wall is a structural decision first. It may carry loads from above, and it can hide wiring, plumbing or ductwork.
CHC Remodel’s CEO is a structural engineer, so wall removals, beams and larger openings are evaluated before demolition, not after the wall is opened.
Appliances + Lighting
Appliances, Lighting and Electrical
Appliances should be chosen before cabinets are finalized. Their dimensions, ventilation needs and electrical or gas requirements affect cabinet sizes and layout.
Lighting works best in layers: general lighting, task lighting over counters and the island, and under-cabinet lighting. New circuits for appliances and lighting are planned with the layout, not added at the end.

Permits
Kitchen Remodeling Permits in Redmond
Inside city limits, the City of Redmond issues its own building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits. A kitchen remodel that moves plumbing, adds electrical circuits or removes a wall typically needs permits, and electrical permits use a separate application.
Two permit portals
Permits that need plan review go through the City’s Plan Review Online (PRO) portal, and simpler over-the-counter permits through the Redmond ePermitting System (REPS). Some properties with a Redmond mailing address are in unincorporated King County, so confirm the property’s actual jurisdiction first.

I had my bathroom and kitchen remodeled and couldn’t be happier with the results. The team was professional, reliable, and really paid attention to the details. My bathroom feels fresh and modern, and the kitchen looks amazing it’s exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend!

I don’t leave reviews unless they’re very positive or very negative… My experience with CHC and Siamak were far better than I expected going into this project. I had a few estimates where companies were trying to take advantage of me (or very poor estimators) as they were 5x the proposal CHC provided. Siamak was a great communicator, timely in responses, helped provide suggestions to make the project as cost effective as possible while maintaining my vision. His team was very respectful and did a tremendous job. Overall, it was a very positive experience.

Common Questions
Redmond Kitchen Remodeling FAQs
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Redmond?
Often. Kitchen remodels that move plumbing, add electrical circuits or change walls typically need permits. Inside city limits, the City of Redmond issues its own building, plumbing, mechanical and electrical permits.
Can custom cabinets fix storage without changing the layout?
Often, yes. Replacing base shelves with deep drawers, adding a tall pantry, using pull-outs and solving dead corners can add a lot of usable storage inside the existing footprint.
Should I choose appliances before the cabinets?
Yes. Appliance sizes, ventilation and electrical or gas requirements affect cabinet dimensions and layout. Choosing them early avoids changes after cabinets are ordered.
Can you remove the wall between my kitchen and living room?
Often, but the wall needs to be evaluated first. It may be load-bearing or contain wiring, plumbing or ductwork. Structural changes may also need engineering and permits.
How do I know if my kitchen has room for an island?
It depends on the clearances around it and where people walk and work. If an island would crowd the room, a peninsula or better perimeter storage may work better. This is checked during layout planning.
What affects the cost of a Redmond kitchen remodel?
The scope is the biggest factor: layout changes, cabinetry, countertops, appliances, plumbing and electrical work, wall removal and the condition of the existing kitchen. Pricing should be based on the actual scope.
