Custom cabinets, quartz countertops, real islands and layouts that finally make sense. We gut it, build it and hand it back clean — with the same crew from demolition day to final walkthrough. Every photo on this page is a Tampa Bay kitchen we built ourselves.
One crew, one point of contact, one schedule. You are not chasing six different trades — we handle the whole build from the first wall coming down to the last cabinet door aligned.
Shaker, flat-panel or custom door styles, built to your ceiling height with soft-close hardware, pull-outs, spice towers and pantry systems that use every inch.
Quartz, granite and marble — templated, fabricated and installed. Waterfall edges, undermount sinks and full-height slab backsplashes when the design calls for it.
If the layout is the problem, we fix the layout. Walls opened up, work triangles that make sense, and islands with real seating and storage instead of a decorative block.
Subway, arabesque, herringbone, large-format porcelain. Laid straight, grouted clean, and carried through the kitchen so nothing looks patched together.
Recessed lighting, pendants over the island, under-cabinet LED, range hoods, faucets and hardware — sourced, installed and aligned, not left for you to figure out.
Full tear-out, haul-away, dust protection and daily cleanup. Your house stays livable while your kitchen gets rebuilt.
Most companies make you fill out a form to find out. Here are the honest ranges for the Tampa Bay market in 2026 — so you know before you call whether we are in your budget.
Same layout, new face. The fastest way to make a dated kitchen feel new without moving plumbing or walls.
The real thing. Everything comes out, everything goes back in new — this is where most Tampa Bay homeowners land.
Walls move, the layout changes, the materials are high end. For homeowners who want the kitchen the house should have had from the start.
Why the spread? Cabinets are usually the single biggest line item — roughly a quarter of the budget — followed by labor and countertops. A 90 sq ft galley kitchen and a 220 sq ft open-concept kitchen are two different projects. We give you a written, itemized number after a free in-home estimate, and that number is the number. No mid-project surprises.
Every kitchen below was built by LTJ in a Tampa Bay home. Same crew, same standard.
This is what a full kitchen remodel does to a Tampa home — the same square footage, rebuilt from the studs out.
Four steps, no mystery. You always know what is happening this week and what it costs.
We come measure your kitchen, listen to what is not working, and hand you a detailed written quote. No pressure, no obligation, no fee.
Cabinets, countertops, tile, hardware and lighting — we show you the options and tell you what each one does to the budget before you commit.
Typically four to eight weeks on site. Work area sealed off, floors protected, cleaned at the end of every day. You stay in your home.
We walk the finished kitchen with you, door by door and drawer by drawer. Every punch-list item resolved before we call it done.
Cosmetic updates generally run $15,000 to $30,000. A full remodel with new cabinets and countertops usually lands between $35,000 and $65,000. A full gut with high-end materials runs $70,000 and up. Cabinets and labor are the two largest line items. Your exact number depends on the size of the kitchen, whether the layout changes, and the materials you pick — we put a written figure in your hands after a free in-home estimate.
Most Tampa kitchen remodels take four to eight weeks on site once materials are in hand. Cabinet lead times are usually the longest part of the schedule, so we order early and give you a week-by-week plan before demolition starts.
Cosmetic work — cabinets, countertops, backsplash, flooring, paint — normally does not require a permit. Moving plumbing, gas or electrical, or changing walls, does. When a job requires a permit it is pulled by a licensed general contractor, and LTJ works under that license as a subcontractor. We tell you which category your project falls in before you commit to anything.
Yes — most clients do. We seal off the work area, protect floors and walkways, clean at the end of each day, and help you set up a temporary kitchen so you are not living inside a construction site.
We walk you through cabinets, countertops, tile, hardware and lighting, and we tell you what each choice does to the budget before you commit. You make the final call — we make it buildable, on budget and on schedule.
