A Process-Driven Approach to Your Dream Kitchen
From "Opinion of Probable Cost" to final walkthrough
A successful kitchen renovation requires more than just skilled carpentry; it requires a detailed roadmap. At Stebnitz Builders, we mitigate the stress of remodeling through our Project Development Agreement (PDA). During this 60-120 day phase, we don’t just sketch ideas; we finalize every detail—from custom cabinetry and quartz countertops to plumbing fixtures and paint colors—before construction ever begins.
This disciplined front-end planning ensures your project stays on budget and on schedule. Once construction starts, your dedicated Production Manager will ensure trade partners are coordinated and your daily life is respected. We replace the anxiety of “budget spiraling” with the confidence of a fixed contract and a clear path forward.

Kitchen Remodeling Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a typical kitchen remodel take?
Timelines vary by scope, but typically involve 60-120 days for the Project Development (design and selections) phase, followed by 8-12 weeks for construction. We provide a detailed schedule so you know exactly what to expect.
Do I need to pick out all my materials before construction starts?
Yes. To prevent delays and budget overruns, we require all selections—cabinets, tile, fixtures—to be finalized during the Project Development phase. This ensures we have a firm contract price before we break ground.
How do I know if my kitchen remodeling ideas are within my budget?
After our initial in-home consultation, we provide an “Opinion of Probable Cost.” This estimated budget range helps us determine if your vision aligns with your financial comfort zone before we proceed to detailed design.
Will I have a dedicated project manager for my kitchen renovation?
Yes. You will be assigned a Production Manager who oversees all trade partners, manages the schedule, and serves as your single point of contact throughout the construction phase.
Can I live in my home during the kitchen renovation?
Yes, most clients remain in their homes. We set up dust protection walls to minimize disruption, though you will be without a functioning kitchen. We recommend setting up a temporary kitchenette in an adjacent room.
