They Moved the Whole Kitchen. Here Is What That Involves
They hated the kitchen so much it almost kept them from buying the house. After three and a half years of living with it, they got five estimates, narrowed it to two, and chose True Builders. The remodel did not just refresh the kitchen; it relocated it into what used to be the living room, and added an outdoor kitchen with a sink and refrigerator.
The owner's review names names: Josh Darland did a great job turning what they envisioned into a design, and the plumbing and cabinet crews get called out for excellent work. The summary line: "The quality of work with True Builders is phenomenal."
Relocating a kitchen: why it costs more than refreshing one
Moving a kitchen means moving everything the kitchen is connected to. Water supply and drain lines have to be rerouted with correct slope, which in Florida slab homes can mean trenching the slab or routing overhead. Electrical needs new dedicated circuits where the appliances land. The range hood needs a new vent path to the exterior, and the old kitchen's openings get closed and refinished. It is entirely doable, as this project proves, but it is structural surgery, not decorating, and it is why a relocation quote is a different number than a replacement quote.
Outdoor kitchens in Florida: what survives out there
- Choose marine-grade polymer, stainless, or masonry cabinets; interior boxes rot in humidity
- Counters need UV-stable surfaces; some quartz yellows outdoors, granite and concrete hold up
- Plumbing and refrigeration need freeze-protected, code-compliant rough-ins even in Florida
- Put it under a roof or pergola; shade is the difference between a kitchen and a project
