Lockport kitchen remodeling, fitted to the room you have

Not every kitchen wall is straight or every floor level, and a new kitchen has to fit the room it goes in. We shim cabinets level, scribe fillers to the walls and flatten the backsplash wall before tile. That fit work is part of every scope we offer, from a refresh to new cabinets in the same layout to a full layout change with walls opened and an island added. One estimate covers it, along with the demo, rough-in, drywall, tile, floor and paint.

We work in Lockport every week, from the downtown streets along the I&M Canal out along Route 7, Route 171, State Street and Farrell Road. Lockport has a range of houses, and the walls and floors in any of them can drift out of square over time. We put a level and a long straightedge on the walls and floor during the estimate, so the shimming, scribing and wall prep are priced up front. That keeps change orders for things that are truly hidden, like what sits inside a wall.

Kitchen Remodeling by ONIT Solutions

Fit and finish in a Lockport kitchen

Floor and wall survey

We check level, plumb and flat on the first visit and write the fixes into the estimate.

Level cabinet install

Cabinets get shimmed to a level line and fastened, so doors hang even and counters sit flat.

Scribed fillers and panels

Fillers and end panels get cut to the wall so there is no gap to caulk over.

Wall prep for tile

The backsplash wall gets flattened before tile goes up, so the grout lines run straight.

Counters on level boxes

We bring in the fabricator to template only after the cabinets are level, so the tops fit the boxes they sit on.

Rough-in, floor and paint

Plumbing and electrical changes, new flooring, trim and paint round out the job.

How a Lockport kitchen job runs

We measure the kitchen, check the walls and floor, and talk through which scope fits what you want. The written estimate breaks out demo, rough-in, cabinets, counters, tile, flooring and finish work, including the fit work we already know about. You approve before we order, and anything hidden we find later gets a written price and your approval first. We name the loud days, keep the stretch without a sink as short as the job allows, and walk the finished room with you.

  • Walls and floor checked on the first visit

FAQ

Kitchen Remodeling in Lockport: questions

My floor is not level. Can you still install new cabinets?
Yes. We shim the cabinets to a level line and cover the gap at the floor with toe kick and trim. If the floor needs more than shims, we tell you during the estimate and price the fix.
Do kitchen remodels in Lockport need a permit?
When we change plumbing, electrical or framing and the city of Lockport requires a permit, we pull it and schedule the inspections.
How long will it take?
A few days for a refresh, and usually two to three weeks for new cabinets in the same layout. Counters add lead time after templating.
Do you work around Lockport?
Yes. We remodel kitchens in Homer Glen, Romeoville, Lemont and New Lenox too.
