KITCHEN REMODEL TIMELINE

Time frame from countertop template to

install depends on vendor

chosen & time of year. After installed, complete

backsplash, final plumbing & electrical.

This is when paint touch-ups are completed,

remaining debris is

removed, and your kitchen is deep cleaned.

Installation depends on

scope of work, number of cabinets &

existing wall materials in the

home.

Most flooring (tile,

nail down, glue down, vinyl)

can be installed before

cabinets. All floating floors should be done after cabinets.

TWO DAYS

After sheetrock it's time to mud,

sand, texture, prime & paint

your walls. Minor touch-ups will need to be

done after cabinets and

countertops are installed.

This is the time to open walls for

rough electrical &

plumbing work. Sheetrock is last.

Disassembly

Timing depends on who

you choose to complete the

disassembly of your existing

kitchen. Hiring a professional often ensures

your old kitchen is gone

in one day!
