The short answer

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Garland?

A kitchen remodel in Garland generally runs $25,000 to $95,000, with most mid-range full remodels landing in the middle of that band and high-end custom kitchens reaching the top. Where a project falls depends on layout changes, cabinetry grade, countertops, and appliances. Permits for the work are issued by the City of Garland Building Inspection Department, which handles residential remodels including major renovations and the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC permits a kitchen often triggers. The biggest Garland-specific cost driver is the city’s older 1960s-1980s housing stock: these homes frequently have load-bearing walls between the kitchen and adjacent rooms, original galvanized or cast-iron plumbing, undersized electrical panels, and soffited ceilings hiding ductwork. Opening a wall for an island, adding a beam, relocating the sink, and bringing wiring up to current code all add scope that a newer home would not require, which is why thoughtful budgeting matters here. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our DFW home remodel cost guide.

01 · Process

How we build a kitchen remodel in Garland.

Garland kitchens carry the fingerprints of a post-WWII boom town: most of the city’s homes went up between the 1960s and 1980s, when the population quadrupled and then doubled again, so the typical Garland house is now 45-plus years old. That means traditional and ranch-style single-family homes with the original kitchen still in place: a compartmentalized galley walled off from the den, soffits hiding old ductwork, single-pane windows, and a small footprint built for a 1970s family. In established neighborhoods like Duck Creek, Eastern Hills, Camelot, Centerville, and Club Hill near Lake Ray Hubbard, homeowners are opening these closed-off kitchens into the living space, replacing decades-old cabinetry and laminate, and re-routing aging plumbing and wiring. Newer pockets around Firewheel are the exception. UHS Remodeling has completed 5,875+ projects across DFW since 2014, with a fixed-price model and a 3-year workmanship warranty.

We remodel kitchens across Garland, from Duck Creek, Eastern Hills, Camelot, Centerville, Embree, and Spring Park to Club Hill near Lake Ray Hubbard and the newer Firewheel area.

Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in Garland?
+
Yes. Kitchen remodels are permitted through the City of Garland Building Inspection Department, and the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC changes a kitchen typically involves each require their own permits and inspections. As your contractor, UHS handles pulling permits and scheduling inspections so the work is documented and code-compliant.
Why are kitchen remodels in older Garland homes more involved?
+
Garland’s housing stock is largely from the 1960s through 1980s, so many kitchens still have their original galley layout walled off from the living areas, soffited ceilings concealing ductwork, aging cast-iron or galvanized plumbing, and an undersized electrical panel. Opening up the space, adding a structural beam, relocating the sink, and bringing wiring to current code add scope that a newer home would not need, which is the main reason these remodels take more planning than a cosmetic update.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Garland, TX?
+
Most Garland kitchen remodels run $25,000 to $95,000. Smaller refresh-style updates fall toward the lower end, while full remodels that open walls, relocate plumbing, and use custom cabinetry and premium countertops land higher. Because so many Garland homes date to the 1960s-1980s, opening a closed-off kitchen and updating original plumbing and wiring is a common reason projects move up in scope. UHS works on a fixed-price model, so your quote is locked before work starts.
What is the most expensive part of a Garland kitchen remodel?
+
Cabinetry accounts for 28–35% of the total. For a $55,000 custom kitchen, expect about $17,500 on fully custom inset or shaker cabinetry. Labor is second at 18–24%.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Garland?
+
Upgraded semi-custom kitchens take 5–7 weeks. Full custom kitchens run 7–10 weeks. Upper-mid projects with structural changes take 10–14 weeks.
Does Garland require permits for kitchen remodeling?
+
Yes. The City of Garland Building Inspection Department requires permits for kitchen remodels involving electrical, plumbing, gas, or structural work. UHS handles the full permitting process.
Can I open up a wall between my kitchen and living room in Garland?
+
Yes. We engage a licensed Texas structural engineer, pull a permit, and install an engineered beam. This is the highest-impact change on Tier 2 and Tier 3 Garland kitchen projects.
What cabinet brands do you use on Garland kitchens?
+
Tier 1: Decora, Merillat Masterpiece, or KraftMaid. Tier 2 and 3: local custom shops building inset and framed cabinetry to any specification.
What countertop material is best for a Garland kitchen?
+
Premium engineered quartz (Silestone, Caesarstone, MSI) is the best balance for 85% of Garland kitchens. Natural quartzite (Taj Mahal, Super White) for Tier 2 and Tier 3 upgrades.
Can I remodel my Garland kitchen while living in the house?
+
Yes. We set up a temporary kitchen, contain dust with floor-to-ceiling barriers, and coordinate schedules to minimize disruption.
How much will a Garland kitchen remodel add to my home value?
+
Typically 70–85% of project cost returns on resale, often more with a structural wall removal.
