Fast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Davie
A full kitchen remodel in Davie typically runs $14,000-$45,000 and takes 6-10 weeks from permit to final walkthrough, though equestrian-zoned properties need extra time for dual-agency approval. We’re Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida, and our crews know Davie’s permitting landscape inside out. Call (844) 665-0162 for a free estimate.
We’ve worked on kitchens from the older CBS ranches along Orange Drive to the acreage properties out near the equestrian districts. Davie’s not like Fort Lauderdale or Pembroke Pines. You’ve got larger lots, agricultural overlays, and a building department that coordinates with Broward County in ways that trip up contractors who don’t know the local sequence. We do. Our Fort Lauderdale base puts us on your driveway fast, and we’ve navigated enough Davie permits to know exactly which paperwork goes where.
If you’re remodeling a kitchen in Davie, you’re probably dealing with a 1960s-1980s block home with original cabinets, worn laminate counters, and maybe a layout that hasn’t changed in forty years. That’s our bread and butter. We handle the full scope: demolition, layout redesign, cabinet and countertop installation, backsplash, flooring, plumbing rough-in and finish, electrical, and final inspection. One contractor, every phase. No handoffs to mystery subs.
Why Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida Is Davie’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
Raymond Estevez built this company on the idea that homeowners deserve a single-source contractor who brings real material choices and handles every trade under one roof. In Davie, that matters more than most places. Your kitchen project might sit on a standard residential parcel, or it might back up to equestrian zoning where a simple remodel permit turns into a two-agency process. We’ve done both. Repeatedly.
Our crews respond to Davie calls within the same day, often faster. We’re not driving down from Boca or across from Miami-Dade. We’re local. We know the difference between a Davie Planning and Zoning equestrian compatibility review and a standard Broward County building permit. Out-of-town contractors learn that difference the hard way. We don’t.
Homeowners in Davie choose us because we bring 50+ recognized brands to the table, not whatever’s in the contractor’s warehouse that week. You choose the brand, we handle the build. KraftMaid or Wellborn for cabinets. Cambria, Silestone, or Caesarstone for countertops. Kohler or Moen for fixtures. Built to spec, not to convenience.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Davie
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full kitchen remodel in Davie means stripping back to studs, reconfiguring layout, upgrading electrical and plumbing, and rebuilding with modern materials and code compliance. In Davie’s 1960s-1980s CBS ranch stock, we often find outdated wiring, galvanized supply lines, and kitchens closed off from living spaces that today’s homeowners want open. We handle structural modifications, load-bearing wall assessments, and the full finish package. On a 1970s block ranch near the equestrian district off Orange Drive, our crew pulled a full kitchen remodel permit through Davie Planning and Zoning and Broward County. We upgraded the worn laminate counters to Cambria quartz, installed KraftMaid cabinetry, and ran new plumbing for a Kohler farmhouse sink-finishing in one trip despite the dual-permit process.

Kitchen Design & Layout
Davie’s older homes were built for separate cooking and living. Today’s families want islands, sightlines to the backyard, and space for multiple cooks. Our design process starts with how you actually use the kitchen, not a template. We measure twice, account for existing structural constraints in CBS construction, and produce detailed plans that pass Davie’s plan review without revision cycles. For properties near the Everglades drainage basin, we also assess slab conditions and drainage before specifying island locations. Shallow groundwater can undermine poorly planned additions.

Quartz & Granite Countertops
We install engineered quartz from Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone, plus natural granite selections. In Davie’s humid climate, quartz performs exceptionally well. It’s non-porous, resists the mold and mildew that thrive in South Florida’s wet season, and doesn’t require the sealing regimen that natural stone demands. For a recent project near Pine Island Ridge, we fabricated a 3cm Silestone Calacatta Gold island with a waterfall edge that became the kitchen’s focal point. Fabrication turnaround is typically 10-14 days from template.

Cabinets & Countertops
Our cabinet lineup spans KraftMaid and Wellborn stock and semi-custom lines, with full custom available through regional shops we partner with. In Davie’s pre-1994 homes, we often encounter kitchens with 30-inch wall cabinets and no pantry. We redesign for 36-inch or 42-inch uppers, pull-out storage, and integrated appliance panels. Countertops get templated after cabinet installation for precision fit. The pairing matters: cabinet box quality determines how well your counters perform over ten-plus years of daily use.

Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Davie’s hard water and cooking humidity punish cheap backsplash grout. We specify epoxy grouts and large-format porcelain tiles that minimize joint lines. For flooring, we install porcelain plank, engineered hardwood rated for South Florida humidity, and premium vinyl tile. On slab construction, we assess moisture vapor emission rates before specifying adhesives. We’ve seen too many floors fail because a contractor skipped this step on a CBS slab with latent moisture.

Kitchen Island Installation
Islands in Davie kitchens need more than pretty countertops. They need electrical circuits for appliances, proper ventilation if you’re adding a cooktop, and structural consideration if you’re spanning a post-tensioned slab. We handle all three. Island installation runs $3,000-$10,000 depending on size, electrical complexity, and countertop material.

Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Davie Homes
- Dual-permitting delays on equestrian-adjacent properties. Skipping the Davie Planning and Zoning equestrian compatibility review before submitting to Broward County Building Division triggers stop-work orders and fines. We sequence permits correctly from day one.
- Slab moisture and shallow groundwater undermining island foundations. Davie’s position on the western Broward ridge means higher water tables than eastern cities. We test slab conditions before specifying island footings or drainage, preventing the cracking and settling that ruins tile and cabinet alignment.
- Pre-1994 wind-mitigation code gaps during kitchen expansions. Adding impact-rated windows or sliding glass doors in a kitchen bump-out requires meeting post-Andrew standards. We assess existing wall and roof connections and upgrade as needed, so your remodel passes inspection and your insurance gets the documentation it wants.
- Outdated electrical panels that can’t handle modern kitchen loads. A 1970s Davie ranch might have 100-amp service and a handful of kitchen circuits. Today’s code requires dedicated 20-amp small appliance circuits, GFCI protection, and proper grounding. We evaluate your panel capacity in the design phase, not after demolition starts.
Pricing for Kitchen Remodeling in Davie, FL
Kitchen remodeling in Davie follows the broader Fort Lauderdale market with some local variation. Equestrian-zoned properties may incur additional permitting fees, and older CBS homes often need electrical or plumbing upgrades that newer construction doesn’t. Here’s what homeowners in Davie typically invest:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Full Kitchen Remodel | $14,000-$45,000 |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000-$20,000 |
| Cabinet Installation | $4,000-$13,000 |
| Countertop Installation | $2,000-$6,500 |
| Backsplash Installation | $800-$2,500 |
| Kitchen Island Installation | $3,000-$10,000 |
These ranges reflect our actual Davie projects. A compact galley kitchen in Pine Island Ridge with stock cabinets and quartz counters lands at the lower end. A full gut with custom cabinetry, structural wall removal, and premium appliances in a Cooper Road area ranch pushes higher. We provide itemized estimates before work begins.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Davie
Yes. Davie Planning and Zoning must sign off on equestrian use compatibility before Broward County Building Division will issue the structural permit. This two-agency sequence is unique to Davie and adds 2-4 weeks to permitting. We handle both submissions in order to prevent delays. Call (844) 665-0162 and we’ll verify your property’s zoning and permit path.
Shallow groundwater complicates any below-grade work, including island footings, drainage modifications, and slab penetrations for plumbing. We test slab moisture and bearing conditions before finalizing island locations or specifying materials. Ignoring this leads to cracked tile, cabinet settlement, and mold. We’ve worked around Davie’s water table on dozens of projects.
If your remodel stays within the existing footprint and doesn’t alter window openings, you typically don’t need to upgrade non-impact windows. However, any new openings, expansions, or structural modifications trigger current code, which in Davie’s wind-borne debris region means impact-rated or protected openings. We evaluate your specific scope during design and specify accordingly.
We install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, and Cambria, Silestone, or Caesarstone quartz countertops, depending on your budget and aesthetic. These aren’t exclusive-we can source other lines-but these brands offer the best combination of warranty support, local availability, and proven performance in South Florida’s climate. You choose the brand, we handle the build.
Most full kitchen remodels in Davie take 8-12 weeks from signed contract to final inspection. Equestrian-zoned properties add 2-4 weeks for the Davie Planning and Zoning compatibility review. We front-load the permit work so construction starts the day approvals clear. For a precise timeline on your property, call (844) 665-0162 for a free estimate.
