How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Waltham?
It depends on the size of the room, whether walls, plumbing or windows move, and the cabinets and counters you choose. After a free visit we send a written, line-item estimate, so you can see where the money goes and adjust before anything starts.
Do you pull the building permits?
Yes. We file permits with Waltham or your town's building department and schedule every inspection, so the work is on record when you sell.
Are you licensed and insured in Massachusetts?
Yes. HouseCraft is state licensed and carries liability and workers' compensation insurance on every worker and employee on your job.
Which towns do you work in?
Waltham, Newton, Wellesley, Weston, Belmont, Lexington, Arlington, Watertown, Needham, Winchester and Wayland. Not on the list? We travel for the right job, so call or send us the details.
Can we stay in the house during the remodel?
For most kitchens, baths and basements, yes. Before we start, we walk you through dust control, water and power shut-offs, and which rooms you'll be without and for how long.
Do you take commercial jobs?
Yes. Most of our work is residential, but we also take on commercial remodeling and build-outs.
