AfterHow Much Does a Kitchen Remodel Cost in Pompano Beach?
A kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach, FL typically runs between $14,000 and $45,000, depending on the scope of work, materials, and whether the layout changes. Most homeowners in Pompano Beach who replace cabinets, countertops, and appliances without moving walls land somewhere in the $18,000-$28,000 range. At Rowan Construction Group, every project starts with a written flat-price quote before any work begins – that number is the number, not a starting point for negotiation.
Kitchen Remodel Cost Breakdown (2026)
The table below reflects current Pompano Beach market pricing as of 2026. These are real ranges from real projects in this market – not national averages pulled from a database.
| Component | Typical Cost Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Full Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 - $45,000 | Varies by size, materials, and layout changes |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000 - $20,000 | Galley or condo kitchens, cosmetic and fixture updates |
| Cabinet Installation | $4,000 - $13,000 | KraftMaid and Wellborn lines cover most of this range |
| Countertop Installation | $2,000 - $6,500 | Cambria and Caesarstone quartz sit mid-to-upper end |
| Backsplash Installation | $800 - $2,500 | Subway tile starts low; large-format stone runs higher |
| Kitchen Island Installation | $3,000 - $10,000 | Price scales with plumbing rough-in and seating overhang |
| Appliance Installation (labor only) | $400 - $1,200 | Does not include appliance cost; includes rough-in connections |
| Electrical and Plumbing Rough-In | $1,500 - $5,000 | Higher when layout changes move the sink or add circuits |
| Flooring (kitchen area) | $1,200 - $4,500 | Porcelain tile is the dominant choice in Pompano Beach |
| Permits (City of Pompano Beach) | $300 - $1,200 | Required for electrical, plumbing, and structural changes |
What Pushes the Number Up or Down
The single biggest cost lever in a Pompano Beach kitchen remodel is whether the layout changes. A project that keeps the sink, range, and refrigerator in the same footprint costs significantly less than one that relocates the sink or opens a wall to create an island. Plumbing and electrical rough-in work – running new lines, adding circuits for a dedicated dishwasher or range, or upgrading the panel – adds $1,500 to $5,000 depending on how much wall the crew needs to open.
Material selection is the second lever. KraftMaid semi-custom cabinets at the mid-range sit in a very different place than fully custom frameless cabinetry. A Caesarstone quartz countertop at $55-$75 per square foot is a different conversation than 3cm quartzite at $90-$130 per square foot. Neither is wrong – the written quote just needs to name the brand, the thickness, and the edge profile so you know exactly what you’re buying.
For the Kitchen Remodel in Pompano Beach service page, we detail the full scope of what’s included in each tier and which brands we source from. If you’re comparing quotes, that page explains what to look for line by line.
A Word on Pompano Beach-Specific Costs
Pompano Beach sits in Broward County, and the City’s building department requires permits for any electrical, plumbing, or structural work – even if the scope is modest. Budget $300-$1,200 for permits depending on what trades are involved. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and handle the closeout. That documentation goes into your project’s photo record, which you receive regardless.
Humidity and salt air also affect material choices here in a way they don’t in, say, Orlando. Cabinets in Pompano Beach homes – especially those in the eastern neighborhoods closer to the water, like Highlands or Harbor Village – can show moisture damage on the toe kick and lower box faces within a few years if the substrate isn’t properly sealed. KraftMaid’s ThermaFoil doors and Wellborn’s solid wood construction with catalyzed finish both hold up well in this climate. We name the product and the reason in every written quote.
What Affects Kitchen Remodel Pricing in Pompano Beach
- Kitchen size and linear footage of cabinetry: A 120-square-foot kitchen with 18 linear feet of base cabinets costs less than a 200-square-foot kitchen with 28 linear feet. Cabinet cost scales directly with linear footage – each additional run adds material and installation time.
- Layout changes and wall removal: Moving the sink across the kitchen means re-routing the drain stack and supply lines. Removing a wall between the kitchen and living area may require a structural engineer’s sign-off and a beam – in Pompano Beach, that typically adds $2,500-$6,000 to the job before finishing costs.
- Countertop material: Cambria quartz is priced by the slab; thicker edges, mitered waterfalls, and built-in ogee profiles add to fabrication time. A standard eased edge on a 30-square-foot run costs less to fabricate than a full mitered waterfall island top. Both are available; the quote names the spec.
- Electrical panel capacity: Many homes in Pompano Beach’s interior neighborhoods – McNab, Palm Aire, and Collier Manor – were built in the 1960s through 1980s with 100-amp panels. A kitchen remodel that adds a dual-fuel range, an under-counter refrigerator, and a dishwasher may require a panel upgrade. That’s a licensed electrical subcontractor job, and we include the cost in the written quote when the inspection indicates it’s needed.
- Flooring continuity: When clients want the new kitchen floor to match the adjacent living area, it often means pulling and re-setting tile beyond the kitchen boundary. That added square footage increases material and labor cost. The written scope identifies the exact tile line before work starts.
- Appliance grade: We install appliances the client supplies or sources through our network. A standard 30-inch range install differs from a 36-inch pro-style with a dedicated gas line and a new hood rough-in. The labor line in the quote itemizes each appliance connection separately.
Before
AfterKitchen Remodel Cost by Scope in Pompano Beach
Cosmetic Refresh: $9,000 - $18,000
This scope covers cabinet refacing or replacement with stock or semi-custom cabinets, new countertops, backsplash, and hardware. No walls move, no plumbing changes hands, and the appliances typically stay. It’s the most predictable scope and the one that finishes closest to the original quote – because there are fewer unknowns inside the walls. For a condo in Cypress Bend or a smaller townhouse in Collier City, this scope is often the right answer.
Mid-Range Remodel: $18,000 - $32,000
Mid-range projects involve full cabinet replacement with semi-custom lines like KraftMaid or Wellborn, Cambria or Caesarstone countertops, new flooring throughout the kitchen, updated lighting, and usually some electrical work – a dedicated circuit for the dishwasher, a new exhaust hood rough-in, or recessed lighting where there was none. This is the most common scope we see in Pompano Beach’s single-family neighborhoods, particularly in areas like Pompano Highlands and Holiday Springs.
Full Renovation: $32,000 - $45,000
A full renovation at this tier usually involves a layout change, structural work, custom or fully custom cabinetry, premium quartz or natural stone countertops, high-end appliances requiring dedicated circuits and gas lines, and sometimes a new island with seating. Permit fees are higher, inspection timelines can extend the project schedule by a week or two, and the written quote is longer because the scope is more detailed. Under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, that price is flat and written – every change that comes up mid-project gets a signed change order before the crew does anything.
How to Save on a Kitchen Remodel in Pompano Beach
The most reliable way to stay on budget isn’t to cut material quality – it’s to freeze the scope before work starts. Every change mid-project costs more than the same decision made during the planning phase, and in Pompano Beach’s market, subcontractor availability can make mid-project delays expensive. Here’s what actually moves the needle:
- Keep the layout. Keeping the sink, range, and refrigerator in their current positions eliminates the plumbing and electrical rough-in cost, which can run $2,000-$5,000 on its own. It’s the single fastest way to reduce the total without touching material quality.
- Choose semi-custom over fully custom cabinetry. KraftMaid and Wellborn both offer semi-custom lines with solid construction, dovetail drawer boxes, and soft-close hardware – at a price point that leaves budget for better countertops. Fully custom cabinetry is worth the cost in specific situations; it’s not always the right call.
- Pick one premium material and work down from there. A Cambria countertop reads as high-end. Pair it with a simple ceramic subway backsplash instead of book-matched marble mosaic and you get the visual impact at a fraction of the cost. The quote will show both options so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.
- Get the permit pulled correctly the first time. Unpermitted kitchen work in Pompano Beach creates real problems at resale – Broward County title searches flag open permits and unpermitted work regularly. Paying for the permit is cheaper than dealing with a stop-work order or a failed inspection that requires tearing out finished work.
- Use the free second opinion. If you have a written quote from another contractor, Rowan will review it line by line at no charge. We find that the most common sources of budget surprise are vague line items (“allowances” for cabinets with no brand named) and missing permit costs. A second set of eyes on a written bid costs nothing and sometimes saves thousands.
- Time the project for late fall or winter. Pompano Beach construction demand peaks in spring and early summer. Scheduling a project for October through February gives more subcontractor flexibility and sometimes better material lead times from local suppliers.

Permit Requirements for Kitchen Remodels in Pompano Beach
The City of Pompano Beach Building Services Division requires a permit for any kitchen remodel that involves electrical work, plumbing changes, or structural alterations. That includes adding a dedicated circuit for a new dishwasher or disposal, moving a sink drain, or removing a wall – even a non-load-bearing one. Cosmetic work like painting, cabinet hardware replacement, or countertop swaps where no plumbing moves typically don’t require a permit, but the line is closer than most homeowners expect.
Permit costs in Pompano Beach for a kitchen remodel generally run $300-$1,200 depending on the valuation of the work and the number of trade permits (electrical, mechanical, plumbing). The inspection schedule adds time – usually one to two weeks across rough-in and final inspections. We coordinate directly with the building department, schedule inspections, and include the permit documentation in the photo record we provide at project close.
One Pompano Beach-specific note: if your home was built before 1978 and you’re opening walls, Florida law requires a lead paint disclosure process and, if lead-positive materials are disturbed, an EPA Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) compliant approach. This isn’t optional and it’s not rare in Pompano Beach’s older neighborhoods like Cresthaven or Old Pompano. We document the substrate condition during demo and flag any relevant conditions in writing before proceeding.
Kitchen Remodel Timeline in Pompano Beach
A realistic timeline for a mid-range kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach runs four to eight weeks from the permit-pull date to final walkthrough. Here’s a rough breakdown:
- Permitting and material lead time: 2-4 weeks. Cabinet lead times on KraftMaid semi-custom orders currently run three to four weeks from the order date. Countertop templating happens after cabinets are installed, adding another one to two weeks for fabrication.
- Demo and rough-in: 3-5 days. This is when the walls are open, inspections happen, and any surprises (old wiring, corroded supply lines, unexpected structural elements) get documented and addressed with a signed change order if cost is affected.
- Cabinet installation: 2-4 days depending on linear footage and complexity.
- Countertop template and install: Template one day, fabrication 7-10 business days, installation one day.
- Tile, backsplash, and flooring: 2-4 days.
- Fixtures, appliances, and trim: 1-2 days.
- Final inspection and punch list: 1-3 days.
The most common reason timelines slip is mid-project scope changes. When the scope is written and signed before work starts – and when every change gets a signed change order before it’s executed – projects finish close to the original schedule. That’s the administrative discipline that’s kept Rowan’s projects on track across more than 4,000 jobs since 2007.
FAQs: Kitchen Remodel Cost in Pompano Beach
What is the average cost of a kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach, FL?
The average kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach costs between $18,000 and $28,000 for a mid-range project that replaces cabinets, countertops, and fixtures without moving walls. Full gut renovations with layout changes and premium materials run $32,000-$45,000. Small kitchens or cosmetic-only scopes start around $9,000-$14,000. For an exact number, call (754) 714-6540 – the estimate is free and the quote is written and flat before any work begins.
How much do cabinets cost for a kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach?
Cabinet installation in Pompano Beach typically runs $4,000-$13,000, including both material and labor. Semi-custom lines like KraftMaid and Wellborn sit in the $6,000-$10,000 range for a standard 18-to-22 linear foot kitchen. Fully custom cabinetry moves above that line. The written quote names the brand, the door style, the box construction, and the hardware – not a vague “cabinet allowance.”
Is it cheaper to reface or replace kitchen cabinets in Pompano Beach?
Cabinet refacing costs roughly 40-60% of full replacement and makes sense when the box structure is solid and square. In older Pompano Beach homes – particularly those built in the 1970s and 1980s in neighborhoods like Cresthaven or Collier Manor – the box frames are often particle board that has absorbed moisture over decades. When the boxes are compromised, refacing just covers the problem. We inspect and document the cabinet condition before recommending a direction. Call (754) 714-6540 and we’ll give you the honest answer in writing.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach?
Yes, if the work involves electrical, plumbing, or structural changes – which most kitchen remodels do. The City of Pompano Beach Building Services Division requires permits for dedicated circuits, plumbing relocations, and wall removal. Permit costs run $300-$1,200 for most kitchen scopes. Skipping the permit to save that cost creates bigger problems at resale: Broward County title searches regularly flag unpermitted work, and correction after the fact costs more than the permit would have. We pull the permit and handle the inspection schedule on every project.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Pompano Beach?
A mid-range kitchen remodel in Pompano Beach takes four to eight weeks from permit approval to final walkthrough. The longest delays typically come from cabinet lead times (three to four weeks for KraftMaid semi-custom) and countertop fabrication (seven to ten business days after templating). Projects that change scope mid-build take longer. Projects where the scope is written and signed before work starts – and where every change gets a signed change order – finish closer to the original schedule. We document the timeline in the written scope so you know what to expect before the crew arrives.
Can Rowan Construction Group review a competitor’s kitchen remodel quote?
Yes. The Free Second Opinion is a standing offer – bring any written estimate and Grant Rowan or a senior estimator will review it line by line at no charge. The most common issues we find are cabinet “allowances” with no brand specified, missing permit costs, and labor rates that don’t account for the full inspection schedule.
