AfterFast, Reliable Kitchen Remodeling Across Lantana
Kitchen remodeling in Lantana typically runs $14,000-$45,000 for a full renovation, with most projects quoted in writing before any demolition starts and completed within 6-10 weeks. Because Lantana operates its own municipal building department separate from unincorporated Palm Beach County, permit timelines and inspection sequences differ from what out-of-town crews expect, especially for homes near the Intracoastal where flood-zone reviews run concurrent with structural inspections. We’re familiar with Lantana’s 3-square-mile footprint, from the Lantana Bays neighborhood off East Ocean Avenue to the CBS homes along West Broadway, and we coordinate scheduling through our South Florida office to keep crews local and response times short.

Why Rowan Construction Group West Palm Beach Is Lantana’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
We’ve delivered kitchen remodels in Lantana since long enough to know the difference between a Palm Beach County permit and a Lantana municipal permit by heart. Our Kitchen Remodeling team has worked the 1950s-1970s CBS stock that dominates this town, and we’ve learned where the embedded rebar tends to corrode and where the roof-to-wall strapping falls short of current Florida Building Code.
Our Lantana customers leave reviews that mention the photo record we deliver after every visit, the written price they received before anyone picked up a tool, and the signed change order they got when we found something unexpected behind the drywall. We don’t ask for trust; we document the work.
Response time to Lantana is same-day or next-day for estimates, because our crews are already working Palm Beach County and our dispatch office keeps local routing tight. We know Lantana’s building department inspectors by name, we know which jobs trigger the concurrent FEMA AE flood-elevation certificate review, and we know how to schedule both inspections in one pass so your kitchen isn’t sitting idle waiting for a second sign-off.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Lantana
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full kitchen remodel in Lantana starts with understanding what your CBS walls are actually holding. The 1960s and 1970s block construction common in neighborhoods near East Ocean Avenue often has corroded embedded rebar from decades of brackish Intracoastal air, and opening a wall for a pass-through or island electrical can reveal framing that needs more than cosmetic attention. We scope for this before quoting, not after demolition, because Clause 1 of The Haven Standard requires a written price before any work starts. Our full remodels include layout redesign, mechanical relocation, permit pulling through Lantana’s municipal department, and coordination of the flood-elevation review when the property sits in the AE zone.
Cabinet Installation & Refacing
We specify KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets for Lantana kitchens, with hardware upgraded to stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners as standard, not an upcharge. Standard galvanized hinges and drawer glides corrode in the salt-air envelope within a few seasons; we’ve replaced enough failing hardware on other contractors’ jobs to know the cost of specifying wrong. Cabinet installation in Lantana runs $4,000-$13,000 depending on linear footage, finish grade, and whether we’re working around existing tile or replacing flooring as part of the scope. Refacing is an option when the box structures are sound and the layout stays fixed.
Quartz & Granite Countertops
Cambria and Caesarstone quartz, along with select granite slabs, are what we quote for Lantana countertops rated for the salt-air environment. Under-mount sink clips and faucet escutcheons get the same corrosion-resistant treatment as cabinet hardware, because a countertop is only as good as what’s fastening it from below. Countertop installation in Lantana typically costs $2,000-$6,500, with quartz running toward the higher end of that range and granite varying by slab availability. We template in person, deliver a written line-item quote, and schedule fabrication only after you’ve signed.
Backsplash & Tile Flooring
Backsplash installation in Lantana runs $800-$2,500, with ceramic, porcelain, and glass tile options sourced through our fifty-plus vetted brand network. For flooring, we account for the slab-on-grade construction common in Lantana’s older CBS homes, moisture testing the concrete before setting any adhesive-down product. Tile and luxury vinyl plank are the dominant choices here; we don’t recommend solid hardwood on-grade in this climate and we say so in the quote.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Our design process for Lantana kitchens includes a measured as-built, a load-bearing wall assessment when openings are changing, and a permit strategy that accounts for Lantana’s dual building code and flood-zone review. The design fee is folded into the project quote, not billed separately, and every layout comes with a written scope, a material schedule naming brands and grades, and a fixed price.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Lantana
We source through fifty-plus vetted brands, and for Lantana kitchens we lean on the ones that hold up in the salt-air envelope. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets with upgraded hardware packages. Cambria and Caesarstone quartz countertops with corrosion-rated under-mount systems. Kohler and Toto fixtures in finishes that don’t pit. We don’t stock everything in a local warehouse, but our South Florida supply relationships mean turnaround times that keep Lantana projects moving. When we quote Tremron or Techo-Bloc for adjacent hardscape work, or Belgard pavers for a kitchen-adjacent patio, those are brands we’ve installed enough to know their real-world performance in Palm Beach County’s climate.
Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Corroded embedded rebar in CBS walls. The brackish air off the Intracoastal accelerates rebar corrosion inside 1950s-1970s block construction. We find it when we open walls for pass-throughs or electrical relocation, and we reframe with pressure-treated lumber and stainless fasteners before hanging cabinets on compromised substrate.
- Non-code-compliant roof-to-wall strapping. Lantana’s older homes were built before hurricane tie-down standards were codified. Any structural modification that triggers a wind-load review, even an interior kitchen wall removal, can expose strapping that needs upgrading to meet current Palm Beach County requirements.
- Out-of-town crews routing permits through the wrong jurisdiction. Lantana has its own municipal building department, not Palm Beach County. Contractors who file in the wrong place get stalled when the AE flood-zone review doesn’t happen concurrently, adding weeks to a timeline that should move in one coordinated sequence.
- Standard hardware failing in the salt-air envelope. We’ve replaced cabinet hinges, drawer glides, and under-mount sink clips that corroded within two to three years because the original installer specified indoor-grade galvanized products. Our Lantana specs call for hot-dipped galvanized or stainless as baseline.

What moves a Lantana kitchen quote within these ranges: the condition of existing CBS walls and whether reframing is needed; the grade of cabinets, countertops, and fixtures selected; whether the property falls in a FEMA AE flood zone requiring elevation certificate review; and the complexity of mechanical relocations (plumbing, electrical, venting). We scope all of this during the estimate visit, document it with photos, and deliver a written flat price with a written scope. No change proceeds without a signed change order. That’s the discipline that has kept our projects within a few percent of the agreed cost across 4,000-plus jobs since 2007.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Lantana
Lantana has its own municipal building department, so permits route through the town, not unincorporated Palm Beach County. Any structural work, electrical, or plumbing modification requires a Lantana permit, and properties in FEMA AE flood zones will trigger a concurrent elevation certificate review through the same department. We pull permits as part of our scope and schedule inspections on the relationship-driven timeline Lantana’s department operates on. Call (561) 475-3903 and we’ll confirm the permit path for your specific property.
Lantana’s position on the Intracoastal Waterway places most homes in the marine salt-air corrosion envelope, where standard galvanized fasteners begin to fail on cabinet hinges, drawer glides, and under-mount sink clips within two to three years. We specify corrosion-resistant hardware as baseline because replacing failed fasteners after installation costs more than doing it right the first time. The upgrade is included in our written quote, not sold as an add-on.
A full kitchen remodel in Lantana runs $14,000-$45,000, a small kitchen remodel $9,000-$20,000, and cabinet installation alone $4,000-$13,000. Properties in AE flood zones or with corroded CBS rebar requiring reframing will land toward the higher end of these ranges. We deliver a written line-item quote after an in-person measurement and condition assessment. Call (561) 475-3903 to schedule your free estimate.
Sometimes. The 1950s-1970s CBS construction common in Lantana can hide corroded embedded rebar or non-code-compliant roof-to-wall strapping that isn’t visible until demolition. We scope for these conditions during our estimate visit, probing where accessible and documenting wall construction in our photo record. If we find something unexpected after work starts, we stop, photograph it, write a change order with a fixed price for the repair, and do not proceed until you’ve signed. Under The Haven Standard, no work proceeds on a change until the change order is signed.
Lantana’s municipal building department typically processes kitchen permits within 5-10 business days for non-structural work, and 10-15 days when structural modifications or flood-zone reviews are involved. We schedule rough-in and final inspections together with any concurrent elevation certificate review to minimize downtime. A typical full kitchen remodel with permit coordination takes 6-10 weeks from signed contract to final walkthrough, depending on material lead times and inspection scheduling. Call (561) 475-3903 for a timeline estimate based on your specific scope.
