Mason Homes handles kitchen projects across the Tampa Bay area — from cabinetry and countertop updates to full gut renovations involving structural wall removal, plumbing relocation and electrical upgrades.
Typical planning ranges vary based on scope, site conditions, materials and structural requirements. Broader Tampa-market reference ranges run from lighter updates in the $10K range through mid-scope renovations in the $25K–$60K range and larger gut renovations $80K and above (Estimate Florida Consulting, 2026). Timelines commonly run 4–8 weeks for standard scope; 8–12 weeks when the layout is being changed.

Every project's scope is tailored. Here's what we manage directly — permits, trades, and materials included.
We install custom, semi-custom, and stock cabinetry from manufacturers including KraftMaid, Waypoint, Fabuwood, and CliqStudios. Cabinet refacing — replacing doors and drawer fronts while keeping the existing cabinet boxes — takes 5-7 business days and costs 40-50% less than full replacement. Full custom cabinet installation takes 4-6 weeks including fabrication lead time.
Granite, quartz, marble, and butcher block countertops templated, fabricated, and installed. Granite starts at $27/sq ft installed; quartz from $50/sq ft (per AGS Stone, Tampa). We work with Tampa Bay fabricators to keep lead times under 3 weeks from template to installation. Compare quartz and granite →
Open-concept kitchen conversions — removing walls between the kitchen and living/dining area — are the most requested layout change in Tampa. Load-bearing wall removal requires a structural engineer's report ($300-$800) and a City of Tampa or Hillsborough County building permit ($200-$800). We handle the engineering, permitting, and construction. Open-concept conversions add $8,000-$25,000 to a kitchen remodel depending on structural requirements. Read our open concept guide →
We configure and install all major kitchen appliance brands including Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, KitchenAid, Bosch, and GE Profile. We handle gas line connections, electrical circuits (most high-end ranges require a dedicated 50-amp circuit), and ventilation for range hoods including exterior venting through roof or wall.
Kitchen flooring replacement as part of your renovation. Porcelain tile, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), hardwood, and engineered hardwood. LVP is the most popular kitchen flooring choice in Tampa — it handles humidity, resists water, and installs in 1-2 days for a standard kitchen. Tile takes 3-5 days including mortar cure time.

Sink relocation, garbage disposal installation, dishwasher hookup, pot-filler faucet installation, under-cabinet LED lighting, recessed lighting layout, and electrical panel upgrades. All plumbing and electrical work is permitted and inspected per Florida Building Code.
Recessed lighting, pendant fixtures, under-cabinet LED strips, and dimmable controls. A well-designed kitchen lighting plan uses 3 layers: task lighting (under-cabinet), ambient lighting (recessed), and accent lighting (pendants over an island). Most kitchen lighting upgrades add $2,000-$5,000 to the project cost.
Subway tile, mosaic, natural stone, and large-format porcelain backsplash installation. Material costs range from $3/sq ft (ceramic subway tile) to $30+/sq ft (natural stone mosaic). Installation typically takes 1-2 days.
