Kitchen Remodeling in Lake Mary, FL
Designed in 3D, permitted with the right Seminole County or city office, and built by a licensed Florida general contractor that also holds its own plumbing license.
Kitchen remodel projects in Lake Mary
Lake Mary kitchen remodels usually start from a kitchen that already works on paper: open to the family room, plenty of cabinets, granite and an island. The problem is the look and the details. Raised-panel cherry cabinets, speckled granite, angled islands, plant shelves above the uppers and fluorescent box lights date these rooms, and owners in Timacuan, Heathrow and the Lake Emma area want a cleaner kitchen with better storage and lighting.
What changes for a kitchen remodel in Lake Mary
Because the layout is often sound, many Lake Mary kitchens are cabinet, counter and lighting projects: straightening an angled island, taking cabinets to the ceiling where plant shelves were, adding recessed lighting and replacing a cooktop island with a prep and seating island. If the sink or range moves, we check the slab and venting first. Permits go to the City of Lake Mary or Seminole County for Heathrow parcels, and we coordinate HOA access.
Local details we plan around
- Much of Heathrow is unincorporated Seminole County, so the county, not the City of Lake Mary, issues those permits.
- Gated communities control contractor access, hours and dumpster placement, which affects scheduling and deliveries.
- Second-floor bathrooms sit over finished rooms, so waterproofing and leak protection matter more than in a single-story house.
- Original plumbing components from the 1980s to 2000s, such as water heaters, shutoff valves and supply lines, are often due for replacement during a remodel.

Scope
What the work includes
In-home measure and design
We come to your home, measure every wall, window and opening, note where the plumbing, gas and electrical run today, and talk through how you actually cook and use the room.
3D design rendering
Your measurements become a 3D model of the new kitchen, so you can see the layout, cabinet heights, island size and finishes before anything is ordered or torn out.
Cabinets
European-style frameless cabinets and custom cabinetry are our specialty, with framed options when they suit the house. Storage inserts, soft-close hardware and tall pantry units are planned into the design.
Countertops and backsplash
Quartz, granite, quartzite, marble or solid surface, templated after the cabinets are set. We coordinate sink and cooktop cutouts, seams and the backsplash tile so everything lines up.
Plumbing under our own license
Sink moves, island sinks, dishwasher and ice maker lines, gas line work for a new range location and fixture installation are handled under our Certified Plumbing Contractor license, not handed off.
Electrical and lighting
New circuits for appliances, code-required GFCI protection, recessed and under-cabinet lighting, pendants over an island and outlet placement planned around how you work at the counter.

"It is a pleasure to recommend Prime Construction / Kitchens for any of your home remodeling needs. Prime Construction helped me diagnose a problem with a wall in my garage related to a window leak. Prime Construction shared with me how I could address the issue myself and saved me the cost of a dispatch by their team. They were only concerned with helping me resolve my issue. I give my full recommendation to Prime Construction. Thank you"

FAQ
Kitchen Remodeling in Lake Mary: questions
Do not see your question? Call us or send the estimate form and we will answer it on the phone.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Lake Mary?
Most kitchen remodels that keep the existing layout take about 4 to 8 weeks of construction once cabinets and counters are ready, and full remodels with layout changes typically run 6 to 10 weeks. Design, selections, cabinet lead time and permitting come first. HOA access rules can shape daily work hours in gated communities.
Do you work in Heathrow, and who issues the permit there?
Yes, we remodel kitchens and bathrooms in Heathrow. Much of Heathrow is unincorporated Seminole County, so the Seminole County Building Division issues the permit rather than the City of Lake Mary. We check each parcel's tax district on the property appraiser record and file with the correct office, then coordinate gate access and work hours with the HOA.
Do I need HOA approval to remodel a kitchen in Lake Mary?
Usually not for interior work, but check your community's rules. Most Lake Mary and Heathrow HOAs only review exterior changes, such as windows, doors and additions. Many still set rules for contractors on hours, parking, gate access and where a dumpster can go, and some ask for notice before work starts. We read the rules and handle any submittal.
What is the average cost to remodel a kitchen in Orlando, Florida?
There is no honest single average, because a refresh that keeps the layout and a full remodel that moves plumbing through the slab are very different projects. The cost is set by layout changes, cabinet construction and linear footage, countertop material, appliances, lighting and permits. We give a written estimate after measuring your kitchen at home. Our kitchen remodel cost guide explains typical ranges and what each level includes.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
Most full kitchen remodels take about 4 to 8 weeks on site once materials have arrived. Design, selections and ordering usually add several weeks before demolition. Kitchens that keep the existing layout finish faster; moving a sink across a slab, opening a wall or waiting on custom cabinets adds time. We give you a schedule before work starts and keep you updated as it moves.
Do I need a permit to renovate my kitchen in Florida?
You usually need a permit when the remodel changes plumbing, electrical, gas, structure or the layout. Cosmetic, like-for-like work such as paint, flooring, or cabinets and countertops replaced in the same spot without plumbing changes generally does not require one, but your city or county building department decides. As a licensed general contractor, we pull the permit and handle the inspections.
