What’s Included in a Kitchen Remodel in Austin? A Complete Guide for Homeowners

Thinking about a kitchen remodel in Austin? You’re not alone. Many homeowners are looking to modernize their kitchens — whether it’s for function, resale value, or just better style. But what exactly does a full kitchen remodel include?

At Austin Painting and Cabinets, we specialize in high-impact kitchen remodeling that includes everything from new cabinets and new countertops to lighting, layout updates, and paint. Let’s break it all down.

1. Cabinet Painting or Replacement

Cabinets are the backbone of your kitchen. In many remodels, we either:

  • Refinish or repaint your existing cabinet boxes with durable finishes
  • Replace with custom or semi-custom cabinetry for more storage and modern appeal

This upgrade alone transforms the look and feel of your space — and we help you choose styles that fit your home and budget.

2. New Countertops

No kitchen remodel is complete without new countertops. We offer installation of:

  • Quartz
  • Granite
  • Marble and other premium materials

We’ll help you select a surface that’s beautiful, durable, and fits your kitchen’s design goals.

3. Backsplash Installation

A new backsplash adds personality and polish to your kitchen. We offer:

  • Subway tile in classic and modern layouts
  • Mosaic, hex, or patterned tiles for a bold statement
  • Seamless integration with countertops and cabinetry

Backsplashes not only look great — they protect your walls and make cleanup easier too.

4. Lighting Upgrades

Good lighting changes everything. We include:

  • LED under-cabinet lighting
  • Recessed ceiling lights
  • Modern pendant or fixture installation

Proper lighting makes your space feel larger, more functional, and more luxurious.

5. Flooring Installation

If your kitchen has outdated tile or laminate, we offer full flooring replacement using:

  • Luxury vinyl plank (LVP)
  • Engineered hardwood
  • Modern tile with grout sealing

We install flooring that complements your cabinets and holds up to heavy kitchen use.

6. Paint & Finishing

As a painting contractor, we don’t skip the final touch — walls, ceilings, trim, and cabinet finishes are handled in-house. That means no delays waiting on another crew.

7. Layout Adjustments

Want to open up a wall? Move your island? Rearrange your appliances? We provide layout consultation and can handle structural changes with permit support.

What Makes Our Kitchen Remodel Process Different?

We’re not a general contractor passing you from person to person. As a dedicated kitchen remodel company in Austin, we handle everything from design and planning to execution — fast, affordable, and high quality.
