AfterKitchen Remodeling Near You in Houston, TX
If you’re searching “kitchen remodeling near me” in Houston, you want a contractor who’s close, answers the phone, and gives you a real number before anyone swings a hammer. Penhallow Remodeling Houston does exactly that. We serve homeowners across the greater Houston area with written pricing up front, background-checked crews, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise that’s in writing on every project. Call (254) 527-5340 and you’ll talk to a live person, not a voicemail.
We’re a general contractor focused on our Kitchen Remodeling services, bathroom remodeling, and whole-home remodels. That’s it. We don’t dabble in roofing or pool decks. We show up when we say we will, we leave your home cleaner than we found it, and if something isn’t done right, we come back and make it right at no charge for a full year. That’s the Kingswell standard that’s guided this company since 2004.
Trevor Nash leads our Houston team, and the way we work reflects how he’d want a contractor to treat his own kitchen. Plain numbers. Straight answers. No games.
Fast, Local Kitchen Remodeling
Speed matters when you’re mid-remodel or standing in a kitchen with one working burner and a torn-up floor. We schedule a real arrival window, not a “sometime between Tuesday and Friday” range. When you call (254) 527-5340, you’ll speak with a person who can tell you whether we can get someone to your home this week, and we’ll confirm the exact window before we come out.
We cover the Houston metro from the inner loop out to the far suburbs. A remodel in Bellaire gets the same written price and same guarantee as a full gut renovation in The Woodlands. The crew who walks your home will be background-checked and in uniform, so you know exactly who’s in your kitchen from the first knock.
Same-day estimates are often available for homeowners inside our core service area. If you’re planning a larger remodel, we’ll schedule around your timeline and still get you a written number before any work begins. No verbal ballparks. No “it depends on what we find once we open the wall.” We price the job, hand it to you in writing, and stand behind it.
Here’s what every kitchen project with us includes:
- A written price before work starts. The number on your estimate is the number on your invoice. Not an estimate range. Not a starting point.
- A written 365-Day Done Right Promise. If work fails inside the guarantee period, we return and fix it free. That includes a free second visit, no service call, no re-inspection fee.
- A real arrival window. We tell you when we’re coming, and we keep that window.
- Background-checked, uniformed technicians. The same professional standard on every job.
- Materials from recognized trade brands. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone countertops, Kohler and Moen fixtures.
If you’re scoping a kitchen remodel and want to understand what drives the price, our Kitchen Remodeling in Houston page lays out cabinet grades, countertop materials, and layout costs in detail.
How Much Kitchen Remodeling Costs in Houston
Kitchen remodels in Houston typically run $18,000 to $55,000 depending on layout, cabinet line, and countertop material. A cosmetic refresh with new countertops, hardware, and a backsplash might land between $12,000 and $25,000. A full gut with custom cabinetry, structural changes, and high-end stone runs $40,000 to $90,000 or more. Here’s where the money goes:
| Scope | Typical Houston Range | What It Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Cosmetic refresh | $12,000 – $25,000 | Countertops, backsplash, cabinet hardware, sink and faucet swap, paint |
| Mid-range remodel | $25,000 – $50,000 | Semi-custom or stock cabinetry, mid-grade quartz, new appliances, lighting |
| Full gut renovation | $40,000 – $90,000+ | Layout changes, custom cabinetry, structural work, high-end stone, plumbing and electrical moves |
| Countertops only | $3,500 – $9,000 | Cambria, Silestone, or Caesarstone quartz installed with new sink |
| Cabinet refacing | $7,000 – $15,000 | New doors and drawer fronts, veneered boxes, new hardware |
What drives the number up or down:
- Cabinet grade. Stock cabinets from KraftMaid cost less than semi-custom Wellborn with soft-close hardware and full-extension drawers.
- Countertop material. Laminate is the least expensive option. Cambria quartz runs higher and carries its own lifetime warranty alongside our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
- Layout changes. Moving a sink, gas line, or load-bearing wall adds plumbing and structural work. A kitchen that keeps its footprint costs less.
- Appliance upgrades. Gas cooktops, wall ovens, and panel-ready refrigerators push the number higher than standard freestanding units.
- Home age. Older Houston homes, especially bungalows in the Heights or Montrose, often need wiring, plumbing, or floor leveling once walls open.
You’ll know your exact number before we start. We survey the space, spec the materials, and put the price in writing. No surprise change orders when the crew hits a surprise behind the drywall because we’ve already priced for what Houston homes typically hide.
Areas We Cover
Our crews work throughout the Houston metro. If you’re in Houston proper, we’re minutes away. We also cover Katy, The Woodlands, Richmond, Tomball, Baytown, Rosenberg, and Deer Park regularly. Homes in the Energy Corridor, Kingwood, Clear Lake, and Sugar Land fall inside our service area too. When you call, we’ll tell you exactly when we can be there.
Close matters in remodeling. A contractor out near Conroe may not want to trek to Pearland for a punch-list visit. We keep our service area tight enough to honor the 365-Day Done Right Promise without making you wait weeks for a follow-up. The guarantee only means something if we’ll actually come back when you need us.
From our home page you can see the full scope of what we do, including bathroom and whole-home remodels for the same homeowners we serve in the kitchen.
Our Process: Say the Price Before the Work
The Kingswell Way, the operating standard behind Penhallow since 2004, runs on three rules. Say the price before the work. Show up in the window we gave. Leave the place cleaner than we found it. That’s the entire foundation. Everything else is execution.
Here’s what a typical kitchen remodel with us looks like:
- Call (254) 527-5340. A live person answers, 24/7. You describe your kitchen, and we schedule a site visit.
- On-site walkthrough. We measure, check plumbing and electrical, talk through cabinet and countertop options, and answer every question in plain English.
- Written price. Within a few days, you get a line-item proposal. That number is what you pay. No allowance games, no “add-ons” after demo.
- Written guarantee. Your proposal includes the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If work fails inside a year, we return and fix it free.
- Work begins. Background-checked, uniformed crews arrive in the window we gave. The site stays clean. We protect floors and seal off dust.
- Walkthrough and signoff. We walk the finished kitchen together. If anything’s off, we fix it before we call the job done.
This is the same process whether you’re doing Small & Partial Kitchen Remodels or an $85,000 full kitchen addition. The price is written, the guarantee is written, and the people in your home are who we said they’d be.
Materials We Use and Why They Matter to the Guarantee
A written guarantee is only as strong as the products behind it. We install materials from recognized trade brands for a reason: when a product carries its own warranty, you’re protected twice. Cambria quartz carries a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. We layer our 365-Day Done Right Promise on top of that. If our install fails, we fix it. If the material itself fails, the manufacturer steps in. You’re never left holding a cracked countertop alone.
For cabinetry, we specify KraftMaid and Wellborn. Both are U.S.-manufactured lines with published specs, consistent quality, and real parts departments. That matters when a hinge wears out in year seven. You can still get the part.
For fixtures, we use Kohler, Moen, Blanco, Delta, Toto, and Grohe. These aren’t the cheapest faucets at the home center. They’re the ones with replacement cartridges you can actually buy in ten years. The guarantee is about more than our workmanship. It’s about not leaving you with a faucet that drips in eighteen months and a manufacturer who vanished.
Here’s a trade term you’ll hear us use: cement board substrate. That’s the moisture-resistant layer behind your tile backsplash or under your floor tile. We install it around wet areas like the sink and dishwasher because Houston humidity will find any shortcut. Skimp on substrate and you’ll see grout cracking and tile popping within a year. We don’t skimp. It’s part of why we can stand behind the work for 365 days without blinking.
FAQs
How fast can you start my kitchen remodel?
Most homeowners get a site visit within a week, and we can often start within two to four weeks after you approve the written proposal. The exact timeline depends on cabinet lead times, which run four to eight weeks for semi-custom lines like Wellborn. Same-day estimates are usually available if you’re inside our core Houston service area. Call (254) 527-5340 and we’ll give you a real window, not a vague promise.
Do you serve my area?
We serve Houston and the surrounding metros including Katy, The Woodlands, Richmond, Tomball, Baytown, Rosenberg, and Deer Park. If you’re within about 45 minutes of central Houston, there’s a good chance we can help. Call and ask. A real person will tell you yes or no on the spot.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Houston?
Kitchen remodels in Houston typically run $18,000 to $55,000 depending on layout, cabinet line, and countertop material. A cosmetic refresh starts around $12,000. A full gut with structural changes runs $40,000 to $90,000 or more. You’ll get an exact written price after your walkthrough, and that number is what you pay. Call (254) 527-5340 for a free estimate.
Can I call after hours?
Yes. A live person answers our phone 24/7, every day of the year. No answering service, no voicemail maze. If you call at 11 p.m. with a water leak under your sink, a real human picks up. For genuine emergencies, we can often get someone to you quickly.
Why Homeowners in Houston Choose Penhallow
The homeowners we work with, people between 35 and 60 in places like Katy, Tomball, and Richmond, have usually been burned before. A contractor who ghosted after demo day. A price that ballooned once the walls came down. A tile job that cracked six weeks after the final check cleared. They’re not looking for the cheapest bid. They’re looking for someone who answers, arrives, does the work right, and stands behind it. That’s the job we’ve chosen to do.
Here’s what that means in practice: our crews are background-checked and uniformed, so you never wonder who’s in your kitchen. Our price is written before work starts, so you never get a surprise invoice. Our guarantee is one year, in writing, with a free return visit if anything fails. And every project is covered by the same standard we’ve operated under since 2004, when the Kingswell family of companies first put these rules into writing.
Each Penhallow location is independently owned and operated. That means the Houston team answers to Houston homeowners, not a corporate office three states away. The brand standards are consistent, but the accountability is local. If you have a problem, you talk to the people who did the work.
Trevor Nash leads this location. The way the crew treats your home reflects how he runs the business: straight answers, clean job sites, and a willingness to fix anything that’s not right. When you call, you’re calling the people who’ll actually be in your kitchen, not a sales team.

- Simone Clarke"Good remodel of our guest bath. There was one delay waiting on the tile I picked, which was my fault for choosing a backordered one. They rolled with it and the finish work is excellent."
