Kitchen Renovation

  • Maximize space with custom layouts and smart storage solutions.

  • A modern, upgraded kitchen can significantly raise your home’s market value

  • Choose from a variety of high-end materials like granite, tile, and custom cabinetry to make your kitchen visually stunning.

  • Upgrade appliances and lighting to reduce energy consumption and lower bills.

Your kitchen is more than cabinets and countertops—it’s the heart of your home. Bernard King Construction designs and builds kitchens that are beautiful, durable, and practical for everyday life. From concept to permits to the final walkthrough, our veteran-owned team manages every detail so your remodel is smooth, on time, and built to last.

Kitchen Design

Great results start with a thoughtful plan. Our design process focuses on how you use your kitchen—cooking habits, storage needs, traffic flow, and natural light—then translates that into a layout and material palette that fits your style and budget.

What’s included

  • Space planning and layout options (galley, L-shape, U-shape, open concept)

  • Cabinet configuration and storage solutions (pull-outs, pantries, appliance garages)

  • Appliance placement for efficient work triangles and safety clearances

  • Lighting plan (task, ambient, and accent) and electrical upgrades

  • Finish selections: cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, flooring, paint, hardware

  • Plans and permits handled in-house

Design goals

  • Maximize function without sacrificing aesthetics

  • Create visual continuity with nearby living spaces

  • Choose durable, low-maintenance materials suited to San Diego living

Full-Scale Kitchen Remodeling

When you’re ready for a transformation, we manage everything from selective demo to final punch list.

Scope we handle

  • Wall removals and structural adjustments (with engineering as needed)

  • Plumbing and electrical reroutes to meet current code

  • New windows, doors, and ventilation solutions

  • Flooring, drywall, painting, trim, and finishes

  • City permits, inspections, and coordination of all trades

What you can expect

Budget Kitchen Remodels

Beautiful results don’t always require a full gut. If you’re working with a tighter budget—or want a fast refresh before selling—we offer smart upgrades that deliver big visual impact.

Cost-savvy options

  • Cabinet refacing or selective replacement

  • New hardware, fixtures, and lighting

  • Paint and backsplash updates

  • Countertop swaps with existing cabinet bases

  • Targeted flooring repairs or replacements

How we keep costs on track

  • Prioritize high-impact changes first

  • Offer material alternatives at different price points

  • Provide transparent, itemized proposals—no surprises

Kitchen Cabinets

Cabinetry sets the tone for your kitchen’s look, storage, and longevity. We install quality cabinets—stock, semi-custom, or fully custom—matched to your needs and timeline.

Highlights

  • Durable boxes with soft-close doors and drawers

  • Custom storage (tray dividers, spice pull-outs, deep drawers, corner solutions)

  • Finish options from painted shaker to stained wood and modern slab

  • Precise installation for true lines, reveals, and level runs

Why it matters
Well-planned cabinets reduce countertop clutter, improve workflow, and increase your home’s value.

Kitchen Island

An island can be the multitasking star of your kitchen—prep zone, dining spot, and storage all in one.

Island options

  • Seating overhangs and integrated microwaves or beverage fridges

  • Deep drawers for pots and pans, hidden trash/recycling, pet-feeding stations

  • Prep sinks, outlets, and charging drawers

  • Statement waterfall edges or furniture-style bases

Design considerations

  • Clearances for safe movement on all sides

  • Lighting and electrical layout

  • Proportion to room size for visual balance

Countertops

Counters take a beating—choose materials that look great and perform. We source and install with precision so seams, edges, and cutouts are clean and durable.

Popular choices

  • Quartz: Consistent patterning, low maintenance

  • Granite: Natural character, heat and scratch resistant

  • Butcher Block: Warmth and texture (great as an accent)

  • Porcelain/Ultra-Compact: Thin profiles, high durability

Details done right

  • Proper substrate support and overhangs

  • Seams placed for minimal visibility

  • Exact cutouts for sinks, cooktops, and accessories

  • Edge profiles that suit your style and cleaning preferences

Backsplash

A backsplash ties your design together and protects your walls. We install tile with crisp lines, tight grout joints, and long-term durability.

Style ideas

  • Classic subway with modern scale or pattern

  • Herringbone or stacked layouts for subtle interest

  • Natural stone or porcelain slabs for fewer grout lines

  • Accent niches and feature walls

Installation essentials

  • Flat, prepared substrates and aligned outlets/switches

  • Proper sealants and grout for easy maintenance

  • Transitions that blend cleanly into cabinetry and counters
