A full kitchen remodel in Plano typically runs $25,000 to $95,000 with UHS Remodeling, quoted as a fixed price up front. Where you land depends on layout changes, cabinetry grade, counters, and appliances: a refresh of a 1990s Deerfield or Hunters Glen kitchen sits lower in the range, while gutting to the studs, relocating plumbing, and opening walls for an island in a larger West Plano home pushes toward the top. Permits for this work are issued by the City of Plano Building Inspections Department under its “Residential Additions & Alterations” category, and inspections are required when you move walls or alter plumbing, electrical, or mechanical systems. A Plano-specific cost driver: so much of the housing stock is that original 30-to-40-year-old build-out, so opening a closed kitchen often means removing a load-bearing wall, abating a dropped soffit, and updating dated wiring behind the cabinets before any new finishes go in. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our DFW home remodel cost guide .
We handle design, selections, permits and construction in-house, with one superintendent on site and a dated schedule before demolition starts.
The goal: open, layered light, a room the house gathers in.
Fixed scope and a written schedule before anyone swings a hammer in your house.
Most kitchens we remodel in Plano sit inside homes from the city’s big 1980s and 1990s build-out, when the median Plano home went up around 1993. Walk into a two-story brick “New Traditional” in Deerfield or a ranch-style home in Russell Creek and you’ll often find the original kitchen: oak cabinets, a closed-off galley layout, laminate counters, and a soffit boxing in the ceiling. Thirty-plus years later, those layouts feel dark and cramped against how Plano families actually cook and gather. UHS Remodeling opens these footprints up, replaces builder-grade finishes, and reworks the wall between kitchen and living space for the open-concept feel buyers in Willow Bend and West Plano now expect. With 5,875+ projects across DFW since 2014, a fixed-price model, and 500+ five-star reviews, we remodel Plano kitchens for the homes that are actually here.
We remodel kitchens across Plano, from Willow Bend, Deerfield, and Legacy West to Hunters Glen, Russell Creek, Los Rios, Kings Ridge, and the older West Plano Estates enclave.
We walk the kitchen, look at what is load-bearing, and give an honest budget range before anyone draws anything.
Plans, elevations, and a full selections package — cabinetry, stone, tile, hardware, lighting — priced line by line.
We pull City of Plano permits, order long-lead cabinetry and appliances, and hand you a dated schedule.
Dust walls up, temporary kitchen set, one superintendent on site, weekly updates and a clean house every Friday.
Punch list closed before final payment, then a written three-year workmanship warranty.
Island: honed quartz, mitered waterfall edge, seating for four.
Inset doors, continuous grain match, unlacquered brass pulls.
Design and selections run four to six weeks before that, and cabinetry is ordered the day selections close.
“The Plano kitchens we love most are the ones where the cabinet, counter, and lighting decisions are made together — not three separate buys. That sequence is why our Plano kitchens look settled the day we hand them over.”
From our Plano kitchen remodel case study — before, plan and costs included.
We’d been thinking about a kitchen remodel for a while, but I honestly had no idea what style would fit our house or how to keep it within budget. UHS Remodeling was the only company that actually showed me different styles and how to keep it within budget.
Ranges are for a typical 200–350 sq ft Plano kitchen, materials and labor included.
All ranges include design, materials, labor, permits, and 3-year warranty. Sourced against NARI Cost vs. Value 2025 regional benchmarks and NKBA design standards.
Same layout, new everything: semi-custom cabinetry, quartz counters, tile backsplash, sink and fixtures, paint and lighting refresh.
The layout changes: soffit removed, wall opened to the living space, new island, relocated plumbing and electrical, layered lighting design.
Shop-built cabinetry drawn for the house, slab stone, professional appliance package, butler’s pantry or scullery, and adjoining spaces brought along.
Most of Plano’s housing stock went up between 1985 and 2002, which means we already know what is behind the wall before we open it — the soffit framing, the bulkhead, the way the HVAC trunk runs over the galley. That is why our schedules hold.

With UHS Remodeling, a full kitchen remodel in Plano generally runs $25,000 to $95,000 as a fixed price. A cosmetic update to a 1990s Deerfield or Hunters Glen kitchen sits at the lower end, while a full gut that relocates plumbing and opens walls for an island in a larger West Plano home moves toward the top of the range.
Yes. The City of Plano Building Inspections Department issues kitchen remodel permits under its “Residential Additions & Alterations” category whenever you move walls or alter plumbing, electrical, or mechanical systems. UHS handles permitting and the required inspections as part of our fixed-price scope, with separate sign-offs for the plumbing, electrical, and any structural work.
Plano’s housing stock is dominated by the 1980s and 1990s build-out, with a citywide median construction year around 1993. That means many homes in neighborhoods like Russell Creek, Deerfield, and West Plano Estates still have original kitchens that are now 30-to-40-plus years old, with closed-off layouts, builder-grade cabinets, and dated wiring that owners want opened up and modernized.
A kitchen remodel in Plano typically takes 6 to 10 weeks from contract to final walkthrough. A cosmetic refresh can be done in 3 to 4 weeks, while a full gut with layout changes runs 10 to 16 weeks. Cabinetry lead time is usually the biggest variable, so we order early and sequence trades to keep the schedule tight.
Yes, generally for 4 to 6 weeks of the build. We set up a temporary kitchen station with your microwave, coffee maker, and a portable cooktop in a designated area before demolition begins.
We can if they’re in good structural condition. Cabinet refacing — new doors, drawer fronts, paint or wood-veneer — costs 30-40% less than full replacement and gives a fresh look. Most full kitchen remodels still replace because layout changes make sense.
Either way works. We can supply ENERGY STAR appliances at our wholesale pricing, or you buy direct and we install. We coordinate with your appliance dealer on dimensions before cabinets are ordered.
Design, cabinets, countertops, plumbing, electrical, lighting, paint, backsplash tile, hardware, appliance installation, permits, debris removal, and final cleaning. No allowances — your quote is the price.
We pull every permit. Homeowner-pulled permits are a red flag and we will not work that way.
3-year workmanship warranty on all installation work. Manufacturer warranties on appliances and fixtures pass through directly to you.
Fixed price after design is locked. No hourly billing, no allowances, no surprise change orders unless YOU change scope — and every change order is signed by you before work begins.
In the DFW kitchen remodels we build, semi-custom cabinetry typically runs $12,000-$28,000 for a full kitchen and offers standard sizes with limited modifications. Fully custom cabinetry generally starts around $30,000 and climbs with wood species (walnut and white oak sit at the premium end), specialty storage inserts, and floor-to-ceiling installations. Custom work maximizes every inch of the layout and tends to hold resale value better in the DFW market. As context, our complete kitchen remodels range from $25,000 to $95,000 depending on scope and finishes.
