What to Expect with KDC Kitchen & Bath Gallery: The Construction Process

At KDC, we know that organization and craftsmanship are the keys to a smooth remodel. Our skilled team of professionals ensures your project is completed with precision, efficiency, and attention to detail—on time and on budget. Unlike the horror stories of six-month remodels, our process is designed to be seamless, predictable, and stress-free.

​

Our structured process eliminates the chaos and uncertainty so often associated with remodeling. With us, you’ll experience clarity, efficiency, and craftsmanship—the very reasons we were voted Best Kitchen Remodeler by the readers of the Pleasanton Weekly.

Detailed Construction Contract

Our contract is one of the most thorough you will see. It outlines:

  • How we will protect your home from dust and debris

  • What will be removed, saved, or repurposed

  • Electrical details down to outlet style and color

  • Paint specifications by brand, color, and sheen

  • Cleanup procedures after completion

 

This level of detail ensures that every decision is made before construction begins, reducing stress and keeping crews efficient. The contract becomes both your peace of mind and our step-by-step guide on site.

Permits & Inspections

We handle all necessary permits and coordinate inspections. Permits protect both the homeowner and the contractor by ensuring the work meets building codes and safety standards. With California’s strict disclosure laws, doing work without permits could devalue your home. We do things the right way—protecting your investment and our reputation.

Building Codes & Compliance

Codes evolve every year, often to improve safety and energy efficiency. For example, lighting requirements now call for a balance between efficient and traditional fixtures. Our team stays up-to-date on all changes, ensuring your remodel not only meets regulations but also takes advantage of the latest technology for comfort, efficiency, and beauty.

Advanced Scheduling

We create a detailed project schedule before construction begins, outlining daily tasks and sequencing. This proactive planning allows us to coordinate trades efficiently and keep your project on track.

​

For example, while countertops are being fabricated (a two-week process after templating), we continue work on cabinets, trim, and flooring—maximizing time and avoiding delays.

PROJECT TIMELINE: 

​

Most kitchens are completed in 6–8 weeks depending on complexity and material choices. A typical kitchen remodel follows this sequence:

  • Week 1: Demolition, framing, rough plumbing & electrical, insulation, inspection

  • Week 2: Drywall installation, inspection, taping, texturing

  • Week 3: Paint walls, install base cabinets, counter templating, install wall cabinets

  • Week 4: Install flooring, baseboards, finish wall cabinets, crown & trim

  • Week 5: Install countertops, backsplash, sink, and appliances

  • Week 6: Final trim, hardware, inspections, touch-up painting, and final clean-up

​

Bath projects follow a similar process but may take less time depending on complexity.

Quality & Completion

Throughout construction, our project managers oversee every detail to ensure top-quality workmanship. By the time we hand over your completed kitchen or bath, every element has been inspected, adjusted, and polished—ready for you to enjoy immediately.
