A kitchen remodel in Boynton Beach typically runs $15,000–$75,000+, but many homes here reach a near-new kitchen for far less by refinishing or refacing sound 1980s–90s cabinetry and upgrading counters and finishes.
Boynton's housing stock means a full gut is often unnecessary. Keeping sound boxes and upgrading everything else delivers a dramatic change on a smaller budget.
For 55+ residents especially, the shorter, lower-disruption path usually wins.

Permits: Cabinet refinishing, refacing, and painting with no plumbing, electrical, or structural change are generally permit-exempt in Boca Raton. Moving walls, relocating plumbing or electrical, or running power to new cabinetry requires a permit. Rules vary by city — Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, and West Palm Beach run their own building departments with their own fees.
Woodwork-first kitchens
Most remodelers start with a layout and fill it with catalog cabinets. We start with the cabinetry and millwork, because that is the surface you touch and see most. Custom runs, integrated paneling, and a coffered or trimmed ceiling are what separate a high-end kitchen from a refresh.
What moves the price
The biggest swings are cabinetry (stock vs. custom, and the wood species), countertop material, and whether walls, plumbing, or electrical move. Keeping the existing footprint and refinishing or refacing sound cabinetry is the fastest way to control budget; relocating the sink and range is the fastest way to grow it.
- Custom hardwood cabinetry vs. semi-custom boxes
- Quartzite, quartz, or stone counters and full-height backsplashes
- Layout changes that trigger plumbing, electrical, and a permit
Permits and process
Cosmetic work — cabinetry, counters, finishes — often proceeds without a permit, while moving walls, plumbing, or electrical requires one through Boca Raton Development Services. We tell you which side of that line your project falls on before we start.
