Hear from Our Customers
You’re not just getting new cabinets and countertops. You’re getting a kitchen that finally works the way you live—where meal prep doesn’t feel like a battle against poor layout, where your family naturally gathers, and where you’re not constantly fighting clutter on every surface.
Your mornings become smoother when everything has its place. Dinner prep turns into something you might actually enjoy when your workspace makes sense. And when friends come over, you’re proud to have them in your kitchen instead of steering them toward the living room.
The numbers back this up too. Kitchen remodels in the Seattle area return an average of 66.9% of your investment, but the daily quality of life improvement? That’s something you’ll feel every single day.
Sea Renovation has been serving the Seattle area since 2023, and we’ve built our reputation on doing exactly what we say we’ll do. We’re licensed, bonded, and insured—not because we have to be, but because your peace of mind matters.
We focus specifically on kitchens, bathrooms, and decks. That’s it. When you’re not trying to be everything to everyone, you get really good at what matters most to homeowners like you.
Our clients are typically 40-50+ years old, homeowners who’ve earned the right to have a kitchen that actually works for their lifestyle. They want quality craftsmanship and reliable service—and they want to work with contractors who understand that this is their home, not just another job site.
We start with an honest conversation about what’s not working in your current kitchen and what you want your new space to accomplish. No sales pitch—just a real discussion about your goals, your timeline, and your budget.
Next, we walk through your space and identify any potential issues before they become expensive surprises. Things like plumbing concerns, electrical updates, or structural considerations. Better to know upfront than discover problems halfway through construction.
Then we create a plan that maximizes your investment. We’ll show you where your money makes the biggest impact—whether that’s opening up the layout, upgrading to energy-efficient appliances, or creating the storage solutions that will actually keep your counters clear. Throughout construction, we handle permits, coordinate inspections, and keep you informed about progress without overwhelming you with every minor detail.

Your kitchen remodel covers everything from initial design consultation to final cleanup. We handle cabinet installation, countertop fabrication and installation, flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and electrical work. All permits and inspections are managed by our team.
For Lake Wa Crest homeowners, we pay special attention to moisture-resistant materials that handle our Pacific Northwest climate well. Think quartz countertops that won’t stain, soft-close cabinet hardware that lasts, and proper ventilation that prevents humidity issues.
We also focus on energy-efficient solutions that make sense for our region—LED lighting systems, Energy Star appliances, and smart storage that maximizes every square inch. Many of our Lake Wa Crest clients appreciate features like built-in recycling centers and pantry systems that work with how families actually live and shop in our area.
Military and first responder discounts are available—call for details.
Kitchen remodel costs in the Seattle area typically range from $30,000 to $80,000, depending on the size of your kitchen and the scope of work. Smaller updates might focus on cabinet refacing and new countertops, while full remodels often include layout changes, new appliances, and updated plumbing and electrical systems.
The biggest cost drivers are usually cabinetry and countertops, which can account for 30-40% of your total budget. Labor costs in our area run higher than national averages, but you’re also getting contractors who understand local building codes and climate considerations.
We provide detailed, transparent quotes that break down exactly where your investment goes—no surprises or hidden fees. During our consultation, we’ll discuss options that fit your budget while still delivering the functionality and style you’re looking for.
Most kitchen remodels take 6-12 weeks from start to finish, but the timeline depends on the complexity of your project. Simple updates like cabinet refacing and countertop replacement might be completed in 3-4 weeks, while full remodels involving layout changes typically take 8-16 weeks.
The planning phase usually takes 2-3 months before construction begins. This includes design development, material selection, permit approval, and ordering custom elements like cabinetry. We’ve found that thorough upfront planning prevents delays and surprises during construction.
Weather can occasionally impact timelines in our region, especially if we’re doing any exterior work or if material deliveries are delayed. We keep you informed about any schedule changes and work with you to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and inspections for your kitchen remodel. Lake Wa Crest follows King County building codes, and any work involving electrical, plumbing, or structural changes requires proper permits and inspections.
Many homeowners don’t realize that even seemingly minor updates can trigger permit requirements. Moving a sink, adding new electrical outlets, or removing a wall all need approval. We manage this entire process so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy.
Proper permits protect you in several ways: they ensure work meets current safety codes, they’re required for insurance claims, and they prevent problems when you sell your home. We build permit costs and timelines into your project from the beginning, so there are no surprises.
In our climate, durability and moisture resistance are key. We’re seeing more Lake Wa Crest homeowners choose quartz countertops over natural stone because they don’t require sealing and handle humidity better. For cabinets, we recommend moisture-resistant finishes and soft-close hardware that won’t warp or stick over time.
Ventilation is critical in our area. We install high-quality range hoods and ensure proper air circulation to prevent moisture buildup and cooking odors. Many clients also appreciate under-cabinet lighting that brightens work areas during our darker months.
Color-wise, we’re seeing a move toward warmer, earthier tones that reflect our natural surroundings—think forest greens, warm grays, and natural wood finishes. These choices feel timeless and connect your indoor space to the beautiful Pacific Northwest landscape outside.
We understand that most families can’t just stop using their kitchen for months. We work with you to create a realistic plan that minimizes disruption to your daily routine. This might mean completing work in phases, setting up a temporary kitchen area, or scheduling certain tasks around your family’s needs.
For working families, we often focus the messiest work during weekdays when you’re at the office, saving cleaner tasks for evenings and weekends. We also coordinate deliveries and inspections to avoid conflicts with your schedule whenever possible.
Communication is key throughout the process. We’ll give you advance notice about when your water or electricity will be temporarily shut off, when we need access to certain areas, and what to expect each day. Our goal is to complete your remodel efficiently while respecting that this is your home and your life.
We focus exclusively on kitchens, bathrooms, and decks—that’s it. When you’re not trying to be everything to everyone, you get really good at what matters most. We understand the specific challenges of remodeling in our area, from moisture considerations to local building codes.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, and we stand behind our work with solid warranties. But what really sets us apart is our approach: we’re not here to sell you the most expensive options or push trendy features that won’t work for your lifestyle.
Our clients appreciate our straightforward communication and reliable service. We show up when we say we will, we keep our work areas clean, and we treat your home with respect. Military and first responders receive special pricing because we believe in supporting our community. Most importantly, we’re committed to delivering results that work for how you actually live.
