Kitchen Remodeling in Fort Lauderdale, FL
The kitchen is where South Florida homes actually live — where families gather after a day at the beach and where friends end up during every gathering. Vision Build & Development designs and builds kitchens across Fort Lauderdale and Broward County that are as durable as they are beautiful. As a licensed general contractor, we self-perform the full remodel: cabinetry, countertops, tile, plumbing, electrical, and finish carpentry. That means one team, one schedule, and one point of accountability from demo day to the moment you cook your first meal.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services
- Custom & semi-custom cabinetry: Soft-close doors and drawers in moisture-stable finishes, sized to your exact layout — including tall pantry and appliance-garage solutions for smaller Fort Lauderdale condos.
- Countertops: Quartz, granite, porcelain, and butcher-block installed with tight seams and proper support.
- Layout & wall changes: Opening a galley kitchen to the living area, adding an island, or reworking the work triangle — structural changes done to code.
- Backsplash & tile: From classic subway to large-format and handmade zellige, sealed to resist grease and humidity.
- Lighting & electrical: Recessed LEDs, under-cabinet lighting, dedicated appliance circuits, and added outlets.
- Plumbing & appliances: Sink relocations, pot fillers, filtered water, and full appliance installation.
Kitchens Built for South Florida Living
Humidity and coastal air are hard on kitchens. Particleboard cabinets swell, cheap hinges corrode, and unsealed stone stains. We spec materials that hold up: plywood cabinet boxes, stainless and solid-brass hardware, and properly sealed countertops. In the historic homes around Rio Vista, Tarpon River, and Sailboat Bend, we often uncover original 1920s–1950s wiring and plumbing that needs updating — and in the waterfront properties of Las Olas Isles and Harbor Beach, homeowners expect a level of finish that only careful, licensed work delivers. Whichever end of the spectrum you’re on, we build to last in this climate.
Permitting in Fort Lauderdale & Broward
Any kitchen remodel that moves plumbing, alters electrical, or touches a wall requires a permit from the City of Fort Lauderdale or your local municipality, and condo projects need building-management sign-off. We manage the entire permit process and schedule inspections so the project moves without paperwork delays — a step many low-bid contractors skip, leaving homeowners exposed at resale.

We remodel kitchens throughout Las Olas Isles, Rio Vista, Tarpon River, Coral Ridge, Bay Colony, Croissant Park, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Harbor Beach, and Sailboat Bend, plus neighboring Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Plantation, and Hollywood.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
A typical Fort Lauderdale kitchen remodel runs 4-8 weeks depending on scope, cabinet lead times, and whether walls or plumbing are moving. We give you a realistic schedule up front.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Broward County?
Most projects range from about $20,000 for a mid-range refresh to $60,000+ for a full custom kitchen with island and layout changes. You receive a fixed written quote after your consultation.
Can you open my kitchen to the living room?
Often yes. If the wall is load-bearing we install a properly engineered beam and pull the required permit — a change that transforms older Fort Lauderdale floor plans.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes, we manage all City of Fort Lauderdale permits, inspections, and any condo association approvals as part of the job.
What countertop holds up best in Florida?
Quartz is the most popular for its durability and zero maintenance; sealed granite and porcelain are also excellent. We’ll help you weigh look, budget, and upkeep.
