El Dorado Hills, CA
Kitchen remodeling for El Dorado Hills homes
El Dorado Hills kitchens are often large, but size is not the same as function. In many Serrano and Promontory homes from the 1990s and 2000s, the kitchen has a big island with a cooktop in the middle, heavy raised-panel cabinets, granite with a tall tile backsplash and dark lighting. A remodel usually keeps the generous footprint and changes everything else: a cleaner island with seating, a range wall with a statement hood, cabinets to the ceiling and layered lighting.
In Lake Forest, Waterford and the older neighborhoods near Green Valley Road, homes from the 1980s and 1990s have more compartmentalized kitchens. Opening them to the family room and adding an island is the change our clients value most.
Many lots in El Dorado Hills slope toward views of the hills or Folsom Lake. When we redesign a kitchen, we look at how windows and the island orientation can take advantage of that view.
What to Expect
Planning a kitchen remodel in El Dorado Hills
Rethinking the island
Moving a cooktop out of the island to a range wall gives you a clean surface for prep and seating and makes ventilation far more effective. It usually means rerouting gas and electrical, which we plan and price during design.
Cabinets that fit the scale of the room
Tall ceilings in many El Dorado Hills homes leave empty space above standard cabinets. Running cabinets to the ceiling, or adding a stacked upper row, adds storage and makes the room look finished.
Lighting for large rooms
Big kitchens need several layers of light. We design recessed lighting on a grid, under-cabinet lights for work surfaces and pendants over the island, all on separate dimmable circuits.
Working with El Dorado County
Permit review and inspections in unincorporated El Dorado Hills go through the county. We submit complete drawings the first time and schedule inspections so they do not hold up your project.

Homeowner Reviews
Kitchen remodels, in our clients' own words
★★★★★
“…had a few companies come out for estimates, but the other company prices were way out of my budget… I ended up relocating my kitchen and creating a beautiful, spacious island—my dream kitchen—all within a reasonable budget. The project manager, Nikita, was attentive and responsive whenever I had questions…”

FAQ
Kitchen remodeling questions El Dorado Hills homeowners ask
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in El Dorado Hills?
Kitchens in El Dorado Hills are often larger than average, so many full remodels fall in the $50,000–$100,000 range, and fully custom kitchens can exceed $100,000. Smaller kitchens that keep their layout start around $30,000. Your estimate is itemized before you commit.
Can you move the cooktop out of my island?
Usually, yes. It requires rerouting the gas line and electrical, and sometimes the downdraft or ventilation. We confirm what is under the floor during the in-home measure and include it in the plan.
Who issues kitchen remodel permits in El Dorado Hills?
The El Dorado County Planning and Building Department, because El Dorado Hills is unincorporated. We prepare and submit the drawings and schedule the inspections.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
Construction typically takes 8–12 weeks, plus design and permit time beforehand. Larger custom kitchens can take longer because of cabinet lead times.
