Kitchen Remodeling Contractor
Seattle, Washington
Vasa Construction LLC is a kitchen remodeling contractor in Seattle, Washington, renovating kitchens in homes across the Puget Sound region. Most kitchens disappoint their owners at the layout long before the finishes wear out, so we start with how the room actually gets used rather than with door styles or countertop samples. Design, demolition, cabinetry, counters, lighting, and the plumbing and electrical work behind them all run under one schedule with one point of contact. Our team has renovated kitchens here for 25+ years, from tight 1920s galleys to open-plan additions. Get your free kitchen remodeling estimate today!

Renovation budgets go wrong through vague scopes and late decisions, so we remove both. You get measured drawings before demolition, a written allowance structure that keeps upgrades visible instead of buried, and one point of contact from the first day to the final punch list. Permitting, inspections, and trade scheduling are our job, not yours.
Kitchen Design and Space Planning
Drawings come before demolition. Measured plans, elevations, and clearance checks let you resolve the work triangle, appliance placement, and island size on paper, where changes still cost nothing but conversation and a revision.
Custom and Semi-Custom Cabinetry
Older homes rarely offer square walls or standard dimensions. Built-to-size boxes fill awkward corners, capture wasted vertical space, and give you interior fittings suited to what you actually store in each run.
Countertop and Backsplash Installation
Templating after cabinets are set produces tight seams and accurate overhangs. Quartz, granite, and solid-surface options each behave differently around sinks and cooktops, so material choice follows how you cook.
Kitchen Plumbing and Electrical Updates
Old kitchens routinely run on two circuits and undersized supply lines. Bringing in dedicated appliance circuits, code-compliant receptacle spacing, and updated supply and drain runs happens while the walls are open.
Flooring and Lighting Installation
Layered lighting changes a room more than paint ever will. Task lighting under cabinets, ambient fixtures overhead, and durable flooring rated for spills turn a dim workspace into somewhere you want to stand.
Wall Removal and Structural Openings
Opening a kitchen to adjacent rooms usually means engineering. Headers, posts, and load paths get designed and inspected properly, so the new sight line does not come at the structure's expense.

Kitchen Countertop and Cabinet Materials
We work in quartz, natural stone, solid surface, and wood, with cabinetry from stock through fully custom. Material choice is really a question of how you cook and how much upkeep you want, so we start there rather than with a showroom.
Quartz
The most forgiving everyday surface available. Engineered slabs resist staining without sealing, hold consistent color across a run, and handle the wine, citrus, and oil that reliably mark natural stone over time.
Granite and Natural Stone
Unrepeatable veining and genuine heat resistance. Every slab is unique, which means selecting yours in person at the yard, and periodic sealing keeps the surface from absorbing whatever gets spilled on it.
Butcher Block and Wood
Warm, repairable, and ideal on islands or secondary runs. Scratches sand out rather than becoming permanent, though the surface needs oiling and should stay clear of the sink and dishwasher.
Custom and Semi-Custom Cabinetry
Stock sizing wastes space against out-of-square walls and unusual ceiling heights. Built-to-size boxes recover that footage, eliminate filler panels, and let interior fittings match what each run actually holds.

Create a Kitchen That Works Better Daily
Kitchens carry a strange amount of weight for a space measured in square feet. It is where mornings begin, where guests gather no matter where you seated them, and where a small layout mistake gets felt every single day for a decade. That is why we spend longer on plans than on catalogs, and why we would rather resolve an awkward corner on paper than after the cabinets are delivered. Vasa Construction LLC has built kitchens for houses all over Seattle, Washington, from bungalow galleys to full additions. Send your floor plan through our contact page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
Most full kitchens run 6 to 10 weeks on site once demolition begins. Cabinet lead times often add 4 to 8 weeks beforehand, so ordering early matters more than construction speed.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Seattle?
Replacing cabinets and finishes like for like generally does not require one. Moving plumbing or electrical, altering walls, or changing the structure does, and Vasa Construction LLC handles Seattle, Washington permitting.
Can I stay in the house during the project?
Most families do. We seal off the work zone, maintain dust control, and help set up a temporary kitchen elsewhere, though you should plan on several weeks without a working sink or range.
Should I move the plumbing or design around it?
Design around it where the existing location works, since relocating drains through a slab or joist bay adds real cost. Where the layout genuinely depends on the move, it is worth doing.
What countertop material holds up best day to day?
Quartz leads for everyday resilience because it resists staining and needs no sealing. Granite handles heat better, and butcher block suits secondary runs where a working, repairable surface makes more sense.
Are custom cabinets worth it over stock?
In older homes, frequently. Stock sizing wastes space against out-of-square walls and unusual ceiling heights, while built-to-size boxes recover that footage and eliminate the filler panels that give away compromise.
When can I remove the wall between the kitchen and living room?
Once an engineer confirms whether it carries load and what header replaces it. Non-bearing partitions come out easily; bearing walls require sizing, posts, and inspection, which changes both budget and schedule.
What usually causes remodel timelines to slip?
Late selections, long cabinet lead times, and conditions discovered behind old walls. Vasa Construction LLC front-loads decisions on Seattle, Washington projects specifically to keep those variables from compounding.
