Learn moreWhy San Diego homeowners choose Modern Kitchen SD
Because the remodel process in San Diego is broken: three subs, three contracts, three timelines. We match you with one accountable crew that carries the whole kitchen, from demo to punchlist.
- One crew for the whole kitchen. Demo, cabinets, counters, plumbing, electrical, tile, and finish work all sit with one insured crew under one contract. No finger-pointing between subs when something slips.
- You contract with the crew, not with us. We are a referral service. We do not do the work, we do not set the price, and we do not take a cut of your project. The crew quotes you directly and you can check their license at cslb.ca.gov.
- Honest scope, not a bigger project. A reface beats a full remodel when the boxes are good. We point you at crews who will tell you that, instead of selling the biggest job on the menu.
- Every message gets a callback. Leave your city and what the kitchen needs. Someone who knows San Diego kitchens calls you back, and calls are recorded so nothing gets lost. No national call center in another time zone reading off a script.

Common kitchen remodel questions in San Diego County

All FAQsWhat does a San Diego kitchen remodel cost?
A cabinet reface runs $8,000-$22,000. A mid-range full gut with stock or semi-custom cabinets lands at $35,000-$60,000. A custom remodel with high-end stone and appliances runs $75,000-$150,000+. Those are market ranges, not our prices. The crew we match you with prices your kitchen and puts the number in writing.
How long does a full kitchen remodel take?
A typical 150-200 square foot San Diego full gut runs 6-12 weeks from demo to punchlist. Design and permitting can add 2-6 weeks before demo starts. Your matched crew gives you a phase-by-phase schedule at the consult, not a vague start date.
Who handles permits and wall removals?
Your matched crew does. Load-bearing wall removals need a permit and an engineering letter, and the crews we send pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and handle the engineering when needed. Whether a wall is load-bearing is a call for the crew and a structural engineer, made on site before anyone cuts.
Can I stay in my home during a kitchen remodel?
Yes, most homeowners stay in the home. The crews we send seal off the work area, run a HEPA air scrubber for dust, and keep one clear path to the front entry. For full gut work, sealing adjacent rooms and removing pets during the loudest demo days is worth doing.
How does Modern Kitchen SD work?
You call us and tell us what the kitchen needs. We are a referral service, not the contracting crew, so we match you with a vetted local crew that handles demo, cabinets, counters, plumbing, electrical, tile, and finish work. That crew does the consult, the design, the quote, and the build, and you contract with them directly.
