Kitchen remodeling in Maryland is an exciting journey, but one of the most common questions we get at Precision Kitchen and Bath Design is: “How long does a kitchen renovation take in Maryland?”
Whether you’re updating your kitchen for better functionality or a complete transformation, understanding the timeline can help you plan accordingly.
A typical kitchen renovation in Maryland can take anywhere from 8 to 24 weeks, depending on the scope of work, permit approvals, and custom design choices.
As for Precision Kitchen and Bath Design, typically our projects are between 8-12 weeks.
Below, we break down what to expect at each stage of your kitchen remodel.
