Kitchen
Remodeling
From a cabinet-and-counter refresh to taking down the wall between the kitchen and the dining room — designed, permitted and built by one Seattle crew that has been doing it since 1996.
01 OVERVIEW
The room your whole house runs through.
A kitchen remodel is the single highest-impact project most Seattle homeowners will ever do — and the one with the most ways to go sideways. Cabinet lead times, appliance dimensions, hidden plumbing stacks, load-bearing walls, and a permit process that has no patience for improvisation. Getting it right takes a contractor who has sequenced it a few hundred times.
Luna Park Construction handles kitchen remodeling end to end. We measure and design around how you actually cook, produce a written line-itemed scope, pull the permits, coordinate every trade, and hand you back a finished room on a schedule you were given in advance. You deal with us, not with six separate subcontractors.
Off your first project. New clients booking a kitchen remodel with Luna Park Construction LLC receive 5% off contracted labor. Mention it when you call.
What a kitchen remodel with us includes
- Layout & design. Work triangle, traffic flow, island clearances and storage planned around your habits — not a showroom template.
- Custom & semi-custom cabinetry. Full-height pantry runs, soft-close hardware, drawer banks sized to your cookware, and finish carpentry that closes every gap.
- Countertops & backsplash. Quartz, granite, solid surface or butcher block, templated and installed with tile or slab backsplash detailing.
- Structural changes. Removing a wall between kitchen and living space, including the beam, posts and engineering the permit requires.
- Plumbing & electrical. Relocated sinks and gas lines, dedicated appliance circuits, code-compliant GFCI placement, and the panel work that supports it.
- Lighting. Layered recessed, under-cabinet and pendant lighting on proper switching — the upgrade clients mention most after move-back-in.
- Flooring. Hardwood, LVP or tile, including subfloor leveling and transitions to adjoining rooms.
- Appliance integration. Panel-ready fronts, hood venting to the exterior, and rough-ins sized to the models you actually bought.
Our process, step by step
Free in-home walkthrough
We measure the room, look at the plumbing stack and panel, and talk through what you want the space to do. Usually within a few days of your call.
Design & written estimate
Layout options, a materials allowance you control, and a line-itemed price with a dated schedule. No obligation to move forward.
Selections & permits
You finalize cabinets, counters and finishes while we pull permits through Seattle DCI and get cabinetry into the fabrication queue early.
Demo & rough-in
Dust walls and floor protection go in first. Then demo, framing, plumbing, electrical and inspection — the phase where hidden surprises surface, and where we show you everything we find.
Cabinets, counters, finish
Cabinets set and scribed, counters templated and installed, backsplash tiled, lighting trimmed out, appliances connected, paint finished.
Punch list & hand-off
We walk the room together, fix the small things on the spot, hand over care details, and stay reachable afterward.
Timeline & what drives cost
Most Seattle kitchen remodels run four to eight weeks on site. The schedule is usually set by cabinetry lead time, not by our crew — which is why we lock selections early. Cost is driven mainly by four things: cabinet grade, counter material, whether plumbing or gas moves, and whether a wall comes out. Layout changes that keep the sink and stack in place are dramatically cheaper than ones that do not, and we will tell you which side of that line your idea falls on before you fall in love with it.
Seattle-specific considerations
Older homes across West Seattle, Delridge and Admiral commonly need a subpanel or service upgrade to carry a modern kitchen’s circuits. Knob-and-tube wiring behind original plaster has to be dealt with, not worked around. Galvanized supply lines are worth replacing while walls are open. And any wall you want removed between a kitchen and living room in a Seattle home very likely needs an engineered beam and a permit. We check for all of it during the walkthrough so it lands in the estimate rather than in a change order.
Related services
Many clients pair a kitchen remodel with bathroom remodeling or a basement remodel while the crew is already on site — it saves mobilization time and usually money. We also handle general contracting, decks, siding, windows, doors and finish carpentry across Seattle and the surrounding Puget Sound area.

02 KITCHEN FAQS
The questions
we get most.
Not answered here? We are on the phone 24/7 at 206 396 7362.
Can I stay in the house during the remodel?
Almost everyone does. We build a temporary kitchen area for you — usually fridge, microwave and a sink you can reach — and we seal the work zone with dust walls so the rest of the house stays livable.
Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen?
If you are only replacing cabinets and counters in place, often not. The moment you move plumbing or gas, add circuits, or remove a wall, Seattle requires a permit. We determine this during the walkthrough and handle the filing either way.
Can you take out the wall between my kitchen and living room?
Usually yes. If it is load-bearing we bring in an engineered beam and posts, and the permit covers it. We confirm what the wall is carrying before we quote so the structural work is in your number from day one.
Who buys the appliances and fixtures?
Either way works. Many clients buy their own appliances while we carry a materials allowance for cabinets, counters and fixtures. What matters is that we have final model numbers before rough-in, because dimensions drive the cabinet order.
How soon can you start?
Call us at 206 396 7362 for current availability. Walkthroughs are typically within a few days; start dates depend on the season and cabinetry lead time, and we will give you a real date, not an optimistic one.
