In short

How we work

A kitchen remodel contractor as we work: our own team carries out the demolition, the electrical and plumbing, the structural work the plan needs, the permits that come with it and the installation of every element, on a kitchen drawn in 3D at our Alexandria showroom, across Northern Virginia, Washington DC and Maryland.

The answer

What does Aksesuar Design do as the kitchen remodel contractor?

The construction and the installation, with our own team, on a kitchen we also designed: demolition, electrical and plumbing, structural work where the plan needs it, the permits that come with it in Virginia, Maryland and DC, the tile work, and the installation of every element. The site phase is sequenced into defined weeks agreed with you in advance, and demolition waits until about a month before the cabinetry arrives. Founded in 1985, in Alexandria since 2017.

Before you start

Who is answerable for the work?

One company. The design, the proposal, the permit and the installation carry our name, and the documents you would ask any contractor for are shown at the consultation.

Before you start

Who is on site?

Our own team, the same team that measured the room and drew the plan. No handoff between the drawing and the tools.

Before you start

How is the site phase run?

Sequenced into defined weeks agreed with you in advance. Demolition waits until about a month before the cabinetry arrives, so you keep your kitchen for most of the project.

Before you start

Who pulls the permit, and who meets the inspector?

We do, with the county, city or town your house is in, when walls, plumbing or electrical work change. Many kitchens need none, and we tell you which yours is.

Before you start

Is the price itemized?

Yes. Demolition, electrical, plumbing, structural work, tile, installation, cabinetry and surfaces are separate lines, so you can see what moves the number.

Before you start

Do you also design, or only build?

Both. The kitchen is drawn in 3D at the Alexandria showroom and approved on screen before anything is ordered, and the construction follows that drawing.

Before you start

What have your completed kitchens cost?

In 2026 our completed kitchen projects ran from $42,000 to $190,000 and up, with most between $90,000 and $145,000. Total installed values, published on this page and on the kitchen remodeling page.

Scope of work

What the contractor's side of a kitchen remodel includes

A kitchen remodel contractor is answerable for the construction. This is the scope as it appears in our proposal, line by line, and how each line is run.

Construction and installation are their own lines in the proposal, next to the cabinetry and the surfaces, so you can see what each part costs.

Scope of work

Demolition

Removing the old kitchen.

Timed about a month before the new cabinetry arrives, so you keep a working kitchen for most of the project.

Scope of work

Electrical

Circuits, outlets, lighting and appliance connections.

Placed to the drawing, so clearances and extraction are right the first time.

Scope of work

Plumbing

Supply and drain to the new sink and dishwasher positions.

Resolved on the drawing before any material is chosen, so the wall is opened once.

Scope of work

Structural work

Opening or removing a wall where the plan needs it.

With the engineering and the permit that come with it.

Scope of work

Permits and inspections

Filed with the county, city or town the house is in, when walls, plumbing or electrical work change.

Handled by us as part of the project. Many kitchens need none, and we tell you which yours is.

Scope of work

Tile and surfaces

The backsplash tile and the countertops.

Selected together with the cabinetry and installed after it, so they are placed and priced in one plan.

Scope of work

Installation

Every carcase, front, countertop, handle and appliance.

By our own team, the same team that drew the plan, followed by the final walkthrough.

04Specification and Quote

Cabinetry, surfaces, appliances, construction and installation are itemized, so you can see what you are paying for and what moves the number.

How the project runs

05Build and Installation

The approved specification is ordered. Where walls, plumbing or electrical work change, we handle the permits, and our own team builds and installs the kitchen.

The cost

What our completed kitchens cost, and where the construction sits in the number

In 2026 our completed kitchen projects ran from $42,000 to $190,000 and up, with most between $90,000 and $145,000. Those are total installed values, not cabinetry prices. Construction is its own line beside the cabinetry, the surfaces and the installation, so you can see what moves the number.

What moves the number

The size of the kitchen

Cabinetry alone starts at $15,000 for a small kitchen, $35,000 for a medium kitchen and $55,000 for a large one. The number of carcases is the first thing that moves the price.

What moves the number

Whether walls and services move

Opening the plan adds structural work, electrical and plumbing relocation and a permit. Keeping the layout removes most of that.

What moves the number

Surfaces

Countertops in Silestone, Dekton or Cambria, Porcelanosa tile, lighting and hardware are selected together with the cabinetry, and each choice is itemized.

What moves the number

Fronts and interiors

Handleless flat fronts, grooved real wood, metal-look and glass fronts, soft-matt lacquer, and the interior storage planned around what you keep in the kitchen.

What moves the number

Appliances

Placed in the drawing so clearances and extraction are right. Priced separately unless the proposal includes them.

What moves the number

Installation

Installation by our own team is its own line in the proposal, next to the cabinetry and the surfaces.

Directions to the showroom

Asked often

Do you handle permits?

Yes. When walls, plumbing or electrical work change, we handle the permits and approvals in Virginia, Maryland and DC as part of the project. Many kitchens need none, and we tell you which yours is.

Asked often

Can I live in the house during the work?

Yes. Demolition waits until about a month before the cabinetry arrives, so you keep your kitchen for most of the project, and the site phase is sequenced into defined weeks we agree with you in advance.

Asked often

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

From the day you sign, most kitchens take about five months: 2 to 4 weeks to settle the last details, then 16 weeks for production in Germany, shipping, installation and the tile work. Demolition waits until about a month before the cabinetry arrives, so you keep your kitchen while the new one is being built.
