Most Bethesda kitchen remodels land between $35K and $45K, quoted as a fixed price. Structural transformations run $55K to $120K+. Ten trades, a dedicated build lead, a written labor warranty.
Quick Remodels is a family-owned, MHIC-licensed kitchen remodeling company in Bethesda, Maryland, serving Montgomery County and the DC metro since 2011. Our designers begin with your vision and turn it into a concept, then detailed drawings and 3D renderings, so you see the finished kitchen before we touch a wall. A single fixed-price contract covers all services: design, permitting, demolition, licensed electrical and plumbing, semi-custom and bespoke cabinet lines, in-house countertop fabrication, tile, flooring, lighting, and appliance installation, coordinated by a single build lead and backed by a written 1-year labor warranty.
What it costs: most Bethesda, Maryland kitchens land between $35,000 and $45,000. Structural transformations, the kind that open the kitchen to the dining room, add an island, and rework the flow, run $55,000 to $120,000+. Most projects finish in 1 to 7 weeks.
Bethesda's housing stock is mostly 1950s and 1960s colonials, split-levels, and Cape Cods, from Edgemoor and Glen Echo Heights to Wyngate, Bradley Hills, and Tanglewood, plus Chevy Chase, Kensington, and Potomac next door. These houses were built with closed-off kitchens, low ceilings, and original electrical panels. We know the issues before the build starts: a load-bearing wall between kitchen and dining room, an undersized panel, galvanized supply lines, an uneven subfloor. Our design-build team plans for them in the concept stage and prices them into the fixed quote, so the open, functional layout you want does not turn into a change order. Permitting runs through Montgomery County, Maryland DPS, and we handle every step: drawings, submission, inspections, sign-off. These projects usually begin with the same question: is that wall load-bearing?
We don't push you up the ladder. The right scope is whatever fits the house, the goals, and the budget, and after fifteen years of Bethesda, Maryland kitchen remodeling projects we can usually tell you which tier in the first conversation.
Same footprint. Cabinet and counter swap, finishes refreshed. The most common Bethesda refresh.
Layout and design tweaks, premium finishes, structural updates within the existing footprint. Where most Bethesda kitchens land.
Wall removals, structural changes, bespoke millwork, load-bearing changes. Built for Bethesda's older houses and the open space they were never given.

It depends on scope: a Refresh runs 1–2 weeks, a Renovation 2–3 weeks, and a full Transformation 4–7 weeks from demo to the end of the build. A small kitchen can be turned around in as little as two weeks, we know being without a kitchen, especially with kids at home, is something you want kept short. Layout changes and bespoke joinery sit at the longer end.
No. We seal off the job site, set up a temporary cooking station if needed, and keep the rest of the house livable. Most clients stay put throughout.
Yes, barring change orders you sign for explicitly. The number on the contract is the number you pay, in Bethesda or DC. If we missed something, we eat it.
We warranty our labor for 1 year on every Bethesda build, anything we built, installed, or finished, and your cabinets carry a 2 to 10 year warranty. Appliances and fixtures are covered by their manufacturer warranties (normal wear and misuse excluded), and we help you navigate those too.
When a Bethesda job needs a permit from Montgomery County, Maryland, we handle all of it, drawings, submission, inspections, included in the fixed price, never a separate line item. But not every job needs one: a quick replacement that keeps your existing layout (nothing moved more than about three feet) generally doesn't require a permit at all.

It begins with a consultation at your house or our Bethesda showroom to understand your vision, your house, and your budget. Our designers create a concept from it, then detailed drawings and 3D renderings with two revision rounds. You choose cabinet lines, countertops, tile, and fixtures at the showroom, everything is written into the contract by brand and SKU, and we pull permits and start demo on a set start date.
Yes, and in Bethesda's older colonials and split-levels it is the change kitchens ask for most. We check whether the wall carries load, size an engineered beam if it does, and show you the open space in 3D before demo. An island, a walk-in pantry, and better traffic flow usually come with it.
Constantly. Houses from the 1950s and 1960s bring predictable issues: undersized electrical panels, galvanized plumbing, uneven floors, low ceilings. We plan for them in the concept stage and price them into the fixed quote, so they do not become surprises mid-build.
