Kitchens Built for How You Actually Live

Kitchen Remodeling Services in DeMotte

You open and close the same sticky cabinet drawer in your DeMotte kitchen every morning, work around corners that collect clutter, and run out of counter space when you need it most. When your kitchen no longer supports how your household actually functions, a full remodel allows you to redesign the layout, add storage where it matters, and install finishes that hold up to daily wear.

Lance & Nate's Construction handles kitchen remodeling projects in DeMotte that involve layout changes, cabinetry installation, flooring replacement, and structural adjustments when older homes require updated framing or support. The work accounts for construction challenges typical in Indiana homes, including outdated electrical placement, limited natural light, and load-bearing walls that affect how space can be reconfigured. Job sites are kept clean throughout the project, timelines are communicated clearly, and coordination with electricians or plumbers is managed when trades overlap.

If you are ready to plan a kitchen remodel in DeMotte that prioritizes function and long-term use, reach out to schedule an estimate.

What Changes During a Full Kitchen Remodel

A full kitchen remodel in DeMotte starts with evaluating your current layout, identifying which walls can be moved or opened, and determining where plumbing and electrical lines need to be rerouted. Cabinets are removed, flooring is stripped to the subfloor, and any structural changes are completed before new materials go in. You will see the framing adjusted, drywall repaired, and surfaces prepared for tile, hardwood, or vinyl installation depending on your preferences.

Once cabinetry is installed and countertops are set, you gain access to storage that matches how you cook and clean rather than working around a layout designed decades ago. Drawers glide smoothly, cabinet interiors are organized for pots and pantry items, and countertops provide uninterrupted workspace near the stove and sink. Lighting is repositioned to eliminate shadows over prep areas, and outlets are placed where small appliances actually sit.

The remodel also includes finish work such as backsplash installation, trim carpentry, and paint. If your home has settling or uneven floors common in older Indiana construction, leveling is addressed before cabinetry goes in to prevent gaps or misalignment. The result is a kitchen that functions as intended without requiring you to adjust your routine around its limitations.

Questions About Kitchen Remodeling Are Expected

Homeowners planning a kitchen remodel often want to know what the work involves, how long it takes, and what disruptions to expect during construction.

How long does a full kitchen remodel take?
Most full kitchen remodels take between four and eight weeks depending on the scope of structural changes, cabinetry lead times, and whether plumbing or electrical systems need significant updates. You will have limited kitchen access during active construction, so planning temporary meal prep space is necessary.

What happens if the layout change requires moving plumbing?
If you are relocating the sink or adding a second prep sink, plumbing lines are rerouted through the floor or walls, and drain slopes are adjusted to meet code. Lance & Nate's Construction coordinates with licensed plumbers to complete this work as part of the remodel.

Why do older kitchens in DeMotte need structural adjustments?
Older homes in DeMotte often have settling that creates uneven floors, outdated framing that limits layout options, or load-bearing walls that require support beams if removed. These issues are identified early and addressed before cabinetry or countertops are installed.

What flooring works best in a remodeled kitchen?
Tile, luxury vinyl plank, and engineered hardwood all perform well in kitchens when installed correctly. Your choice depends on your budget, the subfloor condition, and whether you prefer the look of wood or the durability of vinyl.
