A kitchen remodel with Carolina Installation Services typically includes cabinet installation or refacing, countertop coordination, backsplash installation, flooring, fixture updates, and finish work. Projects range from targeted updates at $5,000 to $10,000 to full kitchen renovations at $15,000 to $35,000+. Every project starts with a consultation to scope the work, align on budget, and set a clear timeline before anything begins.
The first step is always a conversation. Eric visits the kitchen, listens to what you want to change, and asks the questions that help define the scope. He is not scoping the project to maximize the contract. He is scoping it to match your goals and your budget.
When Eric walks a kitchen, he looks at the cabinet condition, the layout logic, the countertop situation, and the flooring. He can tell within the first visit whether a full renovation makes sense or whether a targeted update delivers most of the result at a fraction of the cost. That honest assessment is what saves homeowners money.
CIS helps you decide where to invest and where to save before a single dollar is committed. The estimate you receive reflects exactly what the project requires, not a range designed to leave room for surprises. In the Triangle area, that kind of clarity is rarer than it should be.
