The kitchen you'll actually use.
Full design-build kitchen remodels across Hartford and Tolland Counties. From cabinet refacing to structural overhauls, every Lagace kitchen is permit-coordinated and crew-built — never subcontracted.
Built by the same crew, start to finish.
A lot of contractors will quote you a kitchen, then send a different crew every Monday. We don't work like that. The carpenters who frame your soffits are the same ones who hang your cabinets, install your trim, and walk through your final punch list.
That continuity is why our kitchens come out of construction looking like the renderings — and why our customers refer their neighbors.

- Premium-brand partners (MOEN, TOTO, Andersen) on every project

Common questions, straight answers.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Connecticut?
Typical timeline is 6 to 12 weeks for most projects after permits are approved. Cosmetic updates run 3 to 5 weeks. Full remodels with wall removal and structural changes take 10 to 16 weeks. We provide a clear schedule with weekly milestones and a single point of contact so you always know what is happening next.
Do I need permits for a kitchen remodel in CT?
Yes. Any kitchen project involving electrical, plumbing, or structural work requires a building permit in Connecticut. This protects your home's resale value and ensures everything meets the current state building code. We handle all permit applications and inspections with your local building department as part of every project.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Connecticut?
Costs vary by scope, size, and finishes. Cosmetic refreshes start around $15,000 to $30,000. Mid-range remodels with cabinet replacement and quartz counters run $35,000 to $55,000. Full design-build kitchen renovations with structural changes range from $55,000 to $80,000+. Every project receives a detailed line-item estimate before any work begins.
Can you help with design and material selections?
Yes. We offer a collaborative design-build process. Our team helps with layout options, cabinet styles, countertop materials, tile selections, lighting fixtures, and hardware. If your project requires stamped architectural drawings, we coordinate with our design partners so the plans match code requirements, your budget, and constructability.
Should I reface my cabinets or replace them?
Refacing works well when your current layout is functional and the cabinet boxes are structurally sound. You get new doors, drawer fronts, and finishes at 40-50% of the cost of full replacement. Replacement is the better investment when you want a new layout, additional storage, or custom features like soft-close drawers and pull-out organizers. We review both options with real pricing during your consultation.
Will I be without a kitchen during the remodel?
There is some downtime during the construction phase. We plan demolition and rough-in phases to minimize disruption and help you set up a temporary prep area when possible. You will know each week what is happening and when utilities are temporarily off. Most homeowners find the process far less disruptive than they expected.
