How a kitchen remodel works with Genco
Every kitchen remodel follows the Designed to Live Better Method — a structured process that keeps scope clear, selections locked, and the schedule on track.
- 01
Discovery & scope definition
We walk the space, discuss goals, establish budget parameters, and identify structural or mechanical constraints before any commitments are made.
- 02
Design & selections
Layout options are developed, cabinetry is specified, countertops and tile are selected, and the full scope is documented so pricing is transparent.
- 03
Pre-construction planning
Permits are pulled (when required), materials are ordered and staged, and the schedule is locked with trade sequencing mapped out.
- 04
Demolition & rough-in
Existing finishes are removed, plumbing and electrical are relocated or updated, framing modifications are completed, and the space is prepped for finishes.
- 05
Finish installation
Cabinets, countertops, tile, flooring, lighting, fixtures, appliances, and trim are installed in sequence. Quality checkpoints happen at every stage.
- 06
Final walkthrough & closeout
Punch-list items are addressed, the space is cleaned, and we walk the finished kitchen together to confirm every detail meets the standard.
What impacts kitchen remodel cost in Dallas?
Kitchen remodel pricing varies based on scope, materials, and site conditions. Here are the primary cost drivers we discuss during planning.
Layout changes
Moving walls, relocating plumbing, or shifting the island significantly increases labor and material costs compared to a same-footprint refresh.
Cabinetry tier
Stock cabinets start around $8K–$15K; semi-custom runs $15K–$30K; fully custom cabinetry can exceed $40K depending on species, finish, and complexity.
Countertop material
Laminate is budget-friendly; quartz and granite are mid-range; natural stone slabs, porcelain, and specialty surfaces push costs higher.
Plumbing & electrical scope
Rerouting supply lines, adding circuits for appliances, or upgrading panels adds cost that's invisible in the finished product but critical to function.
Age & condition of home
Older homes often reveal outdated wiring, galvanized plumbing, or structural surprises behind walls that require unplanned remediation.
Appliance integration
Panel-ready and built-in appliances cost more to procure and install than freestanding models, but deliver a cleaner, custom look.

Mistakes we prevent on every kitchen remodel
Choosing finishes before locking layout
How we prevent it: We finalize the floor plan first so tile, cabinetry, and countertop selections are proportioned correctly for the actual space.
Underestimating plumbing and electrical scope
How we prevent it: We assess mechanical systems during discovery and include realistic allowances in the budget before construction starts.
Ignoring the work triangle and prep zones
How we prevent it: Every layout we design accounts for the relationship between sink, range, and refrigerator — plus dedicated prep and landing areas.
Skipping permits for structural or mechanical work
How we prevent it: We pull permits when required and schedule inspections to protect your project and ensure code compliance.
Making decisions during construction
How we prevent it: Our process locks all selections before demo begins, preventing delays, change orders, and the stress of last-minute choices.
Frequently asked
Questions we hear most
Most kitchen remodels in the DFW area take 8–14 weeks from demolition to completion. Timeline depends on scope: a same-layout refresh with stock cabinetry may finish in 8 weeks, while a full layout restructure with custom cabinets can take 12–16 weeks. Material lead times — especially for custom cabinetry and specialty stone — are the biggest variable.
Kitchen remodels in DFW typically range from $35,000 to $150,000+. A mid-range remodel with semi-custom cabinetry and quartz countertops averages $65,000–$100,000. Layout changes, custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and structural modifications push costs higher. We provide detailed scope-based pricing during planning so there are no surprises.
Permits are typically required when the project involves structural changes (wall removal, header installation), plumbing relocation, new electrical circuits, or gas line modifications. Cosmetic updates like painting, hardware swaps, and like-for-like fixture replacements generally don't require permits. We handle all permitting when needed.
Yes, most clients stay home and set up a temporary kitchen station (microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker) in another room. We containment-protect adjacent spaces, manage dust with zip walls, and coordinate access. Plan for 8–14 weeks without a fully functioning kitchen depending on scope.
