Kitchen Remodeling

Kitchen Remodeling in the Pittsburgh Area

The kitchen is the center of your home, it’s where meals happen, conversations start, and families gather. AIP Renovation helps Pittsburgh area homeowners transform outdated or cramped kitchens into functional, beautiful spaces. Bob and team handle every detail from layout planning and demolition through cabinetry, countertops, and final walkthrough, all on budget and on schedule, with no surprises or up-sells.

Why Remodel Your Kitchen?

A kitchen renovation consistently delivers one of the highest returns on investment of any home improvement project. But beyond resale value, an updated kitchen changes how you use your home every day. Common reasons homeowners across Western PA remodel with us:

  • Outdated cabinets and countertops – replacing worn surfaces, dated hardware, and inefficient layouts with modern materials and design
  • Dark or cramped layout – opening up the space with better flow, improved lighting, and smarter storage
  • Worn or damaged flooring – updating tile, hardwood, or vinyl that has seen better days
  • Inadequate storage – adding cabinetry, pantry space, or an island to reduce countertop clutter
  • Appliance upgrades – reconfiguring plumbing and electrical to accommodate new appliances or a different kitchen layout
  • Growing household needs – creating a kitchen that works for how your family actually lives, not how it lived ten years ago

What’s Included in Our Kitchen Remodeling Service

AIP Renovation handles kitchen projects from start to finish. We are the ones that meet with you, design, and construct every aspect of the job, hands on from day one until completion.

Our 5-Step Kitchen Remodeling Process

  1. Consultation – We visit your home, walk through your current kitchen, and discuss what’s working, what isn’t, and what you’d like to change. We talk layout options, material preferences, and budget range.
  2. Design & Material Selection – We present a plan covering layout, cabinetry, countertops, lighting, and finishes. You select materials on your own or with guidance from our vendor partners.
  3. Demolition & Rough-In – We remove existing cabinets, countertops, flooring, and fixtures, then handle plumbing relocation, electrical updates, and any structural modifications before new work begins.
  4. Construction & Installation – Cabinets, countertops, flooring, backsplash, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and appliance connections go in. This is the phase where the transformation takes shape.
  5. Final Walkthrough – We walk through the completed kitchen together, address any details, and make sure every cabinet door, drawer, fixture, and finish meets your expectations before we call it done.

Kitchen Projects We Handle

Complete Kitchen Gut Renovations

Full-scale remodels where everything comes out including cabinets, countertops, flooring, fixtures, and sometimes walls. We redesign the layout from the ground up, giving you a kitchen that looks and functions like a completely different room. Ideal for homeowners with outdated kitchens or layouts that no longer work for their household.

Cabinet and Countertop Upgrades

Replacing old cabinetry and countertops is one of the most impactful changes you can make without a full gut renovation. We install new cabinets or reface existing ones, pair them with updated countertops (granite, quartz, butcher block), and add new hardware while transforming the look of the kitchen in a shorter timeline.

Kitchen Layout Redesign

Moving from a closed-off galley kitchen to an open floor plan. Adding an island. Relocating the sink or range to improve workflow. Layout changes involve plumbing and electrical reconfiguration, work we handle in-house so there’s a single team managing the whole project.

Flooring, Backsplash, and Lighting Refreshes

Targeted updates that refresh the look and feel of your kitchen without a full renovation. New floor tile or luxury vinyl plank, a modern backsplash, and updated lighting can dramatically change the space at a lower cost and shorter timeline.

Kitchen Island Builds

Custom kitchen islands designed for your space with seating, integrated storage, electrical outlets, or a prep sink. We build islands that match your existing cabinetry or serve as a design focal point for the room.

Timeline and Budget

Kitchen remodels vary widely in scope. Here’s what typically affects your timeline and cost:

  • Scope of work – a countertop and cabinet refresh moves faster than a full gut renovation with layout changes
  • Layout modifications – moving plumbing, electrical, or walls adds time compared to an in-place update
  • Cabinet lead times – stock cabinets ship in days, semi-custom and custom cabinetry can take several weeks to fabricate
  • Countertop fabrication – stone countertops require templating after cabinets are installed, then fabrication and install, typically 1 to 2 weeks
  • Material selections – having materials chosen before demolition begins keeps the project moving without delays
  • Existing conditions – older homes may reveal plumbing, electrical, or subfloor issues that need to be addressed before new work begins

Most kitchen remodels take between 4 and 8 weeks once construction begins. Surface-level refreshes can wrap in 2 to 3 weeks. We provide a timeline and cost estimate during the consultation so there are no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a kitchen remodel take in Pittsburgh?

Most kitchen remodels take between 4 and 8 weeks once construction begins. A surface-level refresh such as new countertops, hardware, and paint may take 2 to 3 weeks, while a full gut renovation with layout changes, new cabinetry, plumbing, and electrical typically takes 6 to 8 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during the consultation.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in the Pittsburgh area?

Costs depend on the size of the space, materials selected, and scope of work. A targeted update like new countertops and cabinet refacing costs significantly less than a complete gut renovation with custom cabinetry and layout changes. We work within your budget and do not up-sell on things you do not need.

Can I use my kitchen during a remodel?

During a full kitchen renovation, the kitchen is typically out of service. We recommend setting up a temporary prep area with a microwave, toaster oven, and access to a utility sink. For smaller projects like a countertop swap or backsplash update, partial kitchen use may be possible. Our team works to minimize disruption throughout the project.

Does AIP Renovation handle plumbing and electrical for kitchen remodels?

Yes. We manage the entire kitchen remodel from start to finish — plumbing relocation, sink and dishwasher hookups, electrical panel work, new lighting circuits, outlet additions, and appliance wiring. No need to hire or coordinate separate subcontractors. Bob and team are hands on from day one until completion.

Can you help me choose cabinets, countertops, and finishes?

Absolutely. We provide design guidance and connect you with our preferred vendors for cabinetry, countertops, tile, hardware, and fixtures. We help you make smart, economical decisions that fit your style and budget.
