A lot of kitchens in newer Hewitt and Robinson builds were laid out by a builder trying to fit a checklist, not a family that actually cooks. If your kitchen feels cramped, your island is in the wrong spot, or the layout just never worked, a cabinet swap alone won't fix it. That's a remodel job, and it's a different scope than replacing boxes one-for-one.
Hewitt Custom Cabinets handles the layout and the cabinetry together on these projects. We're not pouring concrete or moving load-bearing walls, but we do coordinate cabinetry placement with the new layout, work around plumbing and electrical points, and build cabinets to the new footprint instead of the old one.
What's included

Customer prep: have your countertop and flooring trades lined up or let us know if you need referrals, since those are typically separate trades we coordinate around.

Materials
Materials and Methods for Custom Kitchen Remodels
A full remodel gives us more room to upgrade construction quality compared to a one-for-one cabinet swap, so we lean on materials built for the long haul.

Engineered Wood Panels
A stable material used for cabinet construction in remodeled kitchens, holding dimension better through Central Texas humidity swings than particleboard.

Custom Cabinet Doors
Doors designed to match the updated kitchen aesthetic, built to the new layout instead of trimmed down from stock sizes.

Integrated Appliance Panels
Panels that conceal appliances for a smooth cabinetry look, popular in open-concept layouts common in newer Hewitt builds.

Under-Cabinet Lighting
Lighting installed beneath cabinets to improve visibility and ambiance across the new work zones.

Hardware Finishes
Coordinated hardware selected to unify the kitchen's new design across the full cabinet run.

Sealant Coatings
Protective sealants applied to extend the life of cabinetry surfaces in a room that sees daily grease and moisture.

DIY vs Hiring a Pro for Custom Kitchen Remodels
| DIY | Hire a pro |
|---|---|
| Cosmetic updates like paint or hardware swaps are reasonable DIY projects | Layout changes involving plumbing or electrical need licensed trade coordination |

FAQs
Custom Kitchen Remodels FAQs
How long does a custom kitchen remodel take from design to finish?
Most full remodels run 8-12 weeks total from initial design consult to final install, depending on the scope of layout changes.
Can you build around an existing island or do I need a new one?
We can build around an existing island if the layout stays in place. If you're repositioning or resizing it, we design new cabinetry to match the updated footprint.
Do I need a permit to replace kitchen cabinets in Hewitt?
Cabinet replacement alone usually doesn't require a permit. Moving plumbing, electrical, or a load-bearing wall typically does, so check with the city before starting layout changes.
What's the difference between a kitchen remodel and a cabinet replacement?
A cabinet replacement swaps boxes in the existing footprint. A remodel changes the layout itself, island position, workflow, storage zones, and builds cabinetry to match the new plan.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost compared to a cabinet-only swap?
Remodels cost more upfront because of layout design and coordination with other trades, but they solve problems a cabinet swap alone can't fix.
Will you coordinate with my countertop and flooring installer?
We coordinate cabinetry timing with those trades, though countertops and flooring are typically handled by separate contractors.
Can you match new cabinets to my existing trim?
If part of your remodel keeps existing trim or built-ins, we match stain and finish to those elements.
