Update Your Kitchen From Demo To Finish

Kitchen remodeling services for homes in Norwood, Massachusetts.

If your kitchen has outdated cabinets, a layout that wastes space, or countertops worn down to bare laminate, a remodel in Norwood gives you updated storage, improved workflow, and finishes that hold up to daily use. You will notice the difference when cabinet doors close quietly, when countertops resist stains and heat, and when the sink and range align with how you actually cook.

Eastwest Painting and Restoration handles full kitchen remodeling from demolition through final paint and trim in Norwood. The work includes coordination of carpentry for cabinetry and framing, painting for walls and ceilings, and layout updates that improve function without requiring structural changes. This approach works well within existing home layouts where plumbing and electrical locations are mostly retained. Clear project phases and regular communication help you understand what happens each week and when the kitchen will be usable again.

What happens during each phase of the remodel

You will see the crew start by removing old cabinets, countertops, and appliances, then addressing any wall or floor damage hidden behind them. In Norwood homes, older kitchens sometimes reveal water stains near the sink or uneven subfloors where tile was removed years ago. Those areas get repaired before new cabinetry goes in, and walls are patched and primed for paint.

After the remodel is complete, you will have cabinets that open smoothly on soft-close hinges, countertops cut to fit around outlets and windows, and walls painted in colors that reflect light without showing every fingerprint. Floors will sit level, trim will meet cleanly at corners, and the room will feel larger due to better use of vertical storage and open sightlines.

Cabinet installation is sequenced to allow plumbing and electrical rough-in before countertops are templated and cut. Painting happens after drywall is hung but before final trim and hardware go on. Flooring is typically installed after cabinets to avoid waste and allow scribing along toe kicks. The service does not include appliance installation or tile backsplash work, though those trades can be coordinated if needed.

A few things homeowners usually ask upfront

Homeowners in Norwood often want to know how long the kitchen will be unusable, what decisions need to be made early, and how to handle meals during construction. These questions help you prepare for the disruption and stay on schedule.

How long does a full kitchen remodel take?
Most kitchens take three to five weeks depending on size, layout changes, and material lead times. You will be without a functioning kitchen for most of that period, though sinks and ranges are reconnected as soon as possible.
What choices do I need to make before the remodel starts?
You should select cabinets, countertops, paint colors, and flooring before demolition begins. Delays in material selection can extend the timeline and leave the kitchen unusable longer than planned.
What layout changes can be made without moving plumbing?
You can reposition cabinets, add islands, or change counter heights without relocating the sink or dishwasher. Moving those fixtures requires rerouting drain and supply lines, which adds cost and time.
Why do some kitchens need floor repairs during a remodel?
Old linoleum or tile can hide water damage, uneven subfloors, or gaps where cabinets were removed. Repairing those areas ensures new flooring installs flat and cabinets sit level.
When do countertops get installed during the remodel?
Countertops are templated after cabinets are in place and installed near the end of the project. This allows precise cuts around sinks, cooktops, and walls without gaps or overhangs.

Eastwest Painting and Restoration coordinates all phases of kitchen remodeling to minimize downtime and keep the project moving through each trade. If your Norwood home needs a kitchen update, get in touch to review your layout and schedule a consultation.
