Kitchen remodeling in Kirkland.
In Juanita, Rose Hill, and Finn Hill, 1960s–80s homes sit in neighborhoods people refuse to leave — so the kitchen gets remodeled instead. Go Far Construction rebuilds Kirkland kitchens to the Eastside standard: walls opened onto islands, custom cabinetry, stone counters, and lighting designed for lake-country gray, from a family-owned, licensed Washington general contractor.
The signature Kirkland project is the closed ’70s kitchen opened to the living space: the wall comes down, an island goes in, and the main floor finally works the way the view deserves. That wall is usually load-bearing — our load-bearing wall guide covers the engineering — and the result is the open-concept layout that defines our kitchen remodeling service.
On budget: most full kitchen remodels in the Kirkland area land between roughly $45,000 and $110,000 — new custom or semi-custom cabinets, stone countertops, tile, and updated appliances — with layout changes pushing past that. Finish expectations run high on the Eastside, and that is the level we build to. Pricing is itemized in writing before demolition; the full breakdown lives in our kitchen remodel cost guide, and our remodel ROI guide shows why kitchens hold their value in this market.
Permits run through the City of Kirkland when walls, circuits, or plumbing move. We prepare the application, carry the fees in the estimate, and meet every inspection — the same process behind all our Kirkland projects and our work across King County.
What a Kirkland kitchen project includes
Kirkland kitchen remodeling questions
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Kirkland?
Most full kitchen remodels in the Kirkland area land between roughly $45,000 and $110,000 for new cabinets, stone countertops, tile, and updated appliances in the existing layout. Opening a load-bearing wall or moving plumbing pushes past that, and Eastside finish levels can carry the number higher. Every project gets an itemized written estimate before demolition.
Can you open my kitchen to the living room?
Yes — it’s the most requested Kirkland project. The dividing wall is usually load-bearing, so we design and install an engineered beam, handle the structural permit, and rebuild the opening with an island where the wall stood. The result is one continuous main floor.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
A full kitchen remodel typically runs six to ten weeks of construction once materials are on hand — longer when walls move. Custom cabinetry carries six-to-eight-week lead times, so we lock selections early to keep the build continuous and your household functional as long as possible.
Who handles Kirkland permits?
We do. Structural, electrical, and plumbing changes are permitted through the City of Kirkland. We prepare and track the application, include the fees in your estimate, and meet every inspector on site.
