Kitchen remodeling
Layouts, cabinets, counters, lighting and flooring — planned together before demolition starts.
The scope
What’s included.
- Layout changes, islands and wall openings, with structural review where required
- Stock, semi-custom and custom cabinetry; appliance placement and installation coordination
- Quartz, granite and solid-surface counter templating and installation coordination
- Herringbone, large-format and other tile backsplashes
- Hardwood, engineered wood, LVP and tile floors
- Lighting layouts, under-cabinet lighting, fixtures, drywall, trim and paint
The coordination
Working together.
- Plumbing relocations and gas lines by a licensed NJ master plumber
- New circuits and panel work by a licensed NJ electrical contractor
- Municipal permits and inspections
In New Jersey, plumbing and electrical work must be performed by licensed trade contractors, and permit-required work does not begin until the municipality issues the permit.

Planned before demolition
CMD’s finished kitchens show full-height cabinetry, aligned backsplashes, island-centered lighting and floors that continue into adjoining rooms.
The sequence
A scope conversation and site visit establish existing conditions, layout and budget. The written proposal sets selections, schedule and payment terms. Demolition, licensed rough trades and inspections precede cabinets, counters, tile, fixture trim-out and the punch list, with progress updates along the way.

Before we start
Common questions.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
It depends on scope, lead times for cabinetry and counters, and whether walls or plumbing move. CMD will give you a written schedule with the proposal rather than a generic promise, and will tell you up front how long you should expect to be without a working kitchen.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in New Jersey?
Usually yes when plumbing, electrical or structural work changes. Like-for-like cabinet, counter and flooring replacement is often exempt. Your municipal construction office makes the final call, and CMD does not start permit-required work before permits are issued.
Can you keep my existing layout to save money?
Often, yes. Keeping the sink, range and refrigerator where they are avoids most plumbing and electrical relocation. CMD will tell you honestly whether the existing layout is worth keeping.
Who handles the plumbing and electrical?
Licensed New Jersey trade contractors. CMD coordinates their work and the inspections so you have one point of contact.
