Kitchen Remodeling in Yelm
People in Yelm call Greg for kitchen remodels, new islands, cabinets, tile and opened-up layouts. He's a licensed, bonded and insured general contractor out of Rainier, about 7 miles away, and every Yelm job starts with a free estimate.
Out here on the South Sound prairies a lot of the work is on acreage — barns, shops, barndominiums and new homes on open ground, where the gravelly soil drains well but the wind comes across with nothing to stop it. That is why the order of the work, and who is running it, matter as much as the cabinets you pick.
One customer called Greg “a man of integrity.” Another wrote that he “does excellent work.”
What's included
Kitchen Remodeling we do in Yelm
- 01
Layout and wall changes
Opening a closed kitchen to the living area, moving a doorway, or taking out a wall with a properly sized beam so the new layout works.
- 02
Islands and seating
A new island sized for prep space and stools, with outlets and pendant lights planned in, like the island in Greg's lodge-style kitchen.
- 03
Cabinets and countertops
Cabinets set level and square even on an old, uneven floor, with countertops, sink and hardware fitted to match.
- 04
Tile backsplash and flooring
Backsplash tile, plus kitchen floors that stand up to traffic and spills, including slate and other natural tile.
- 05
Plumbing, electrical and lighting
Relocating the sink, adding a dishwasher, new appliance circuits, and under-cabinet, recessed and pendant lighting.
- 06
Range hood venting and appliances
A range hood ducted to the outside, which matters in a damp climate, and every appliance set and connected before we leave.
Thurston County, WA
Kitchen Remodeling around Yelm
Greg works all over Yelm — near Hammersmith Hill and Solberg Lake — and throughout Thurston County.
Yelm sits on the prairie along the Nisqually River in south Thurston County, with Mount Rainier filling the view to the east. Yelm is about 7 miles north of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area.
Western Washington buildings fight water more than anything — months of rain, moss on the roof, rot wherever wood stays wet, and soils that hold moisture. A building lasts when it sits on a proper foundation with drainage around it, is wrapped and flashed right, and is built to dry out.
How it works
How your Yelm kitchen remodel job works
- 1
Free on-site estimate
Greg looks at the kitchen, how you cook and how the room connects to the rest of the house, then gives you a free estimate.

Design and selections
We settle the layout, cabinet plan, counters, tile and lighting, and order the slow-to-arrive items before demolition starts.
- 3
Demo and rough-in
The old kitchen comes out, then framing changes, plumbing, wiring and venting go in and get inspected while the walls are open.
- 4
Install, finish and walkthrough
Cabinets, counters, tile, floors, trim and appliances go in, then we clean up and go over every detail with you.

Questions
Kitchen Remodeling in Yelm: FAQs
Do you do kitchen remodeling in Yelm, WA?
Yes. Yelm is about 7 miles north of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area. Greg handles kitchen remodels, new islands, cabinets, tile and opened-up layouts there, and the estimate is free.
Do I need a permit for kitchen remodeling in Yelm?
It depends on the project. When one is needed, Greg pulls the permit from the City of Yelm's building department and builds to whatever the permit and inspection require.
Can you remove a wall to open up the kitchen?
Usually, yes. A load-bearing wall gets a beam sized for the span with posts carried down to solid support, and the work goes through permit. Greg checks the wall for plumbing, wiring and ductwork at the estimate so there are no surprises.
Can a kitchen remodel be part of an addition?
Yes, and it is a common pairing. Greg specializes in both additions and kitchen remodels, so a bump-out that gives a cramped kitchen more room, or a whole new kitchen inside a larger addition, is planned and built as one project.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost?
There is no honest flat number, because kitchens range from new cabinets in the same footprint to a full gut with walls moving. The price comes down mostly to layout changes, cabinet and counter choices, how far plumbing and wiring move, and the flooring. Greg gives free on-site estimates so you see the real number for your kitchen.
How long will we be without a kitchen?
That depends on the scope, and Greg gives you a timeline with the estimate. Ordering cabinets, counters and fixtures before demolition keeps the gap as short as possible. Many households set up a microwave, coffee maker and fridge in another room for the middle stretch.
