From Las Olas waterfront homes to Coral Ridge estates, AP Stone delivers full kitchen renovations built around marble, porcelain, and in-house craftsmanship — not subcontracted shortcuts.
A kitchen remodel in Fort Lauderdale is a coordination problem that touches plumbing, electrical, gas, HVAC, City of Fort Lauderdale permitting, hurricane code, and material logistics. The contractor you hire is not measured by finish quality alone — they are measured by how cleanly the entire process moves from demo to walkthrough. AP Stone has been remodeling Broward County kitchens for over twenty years, and we run every project with a single in-house crew and a single project manager who owns the schedule end to end.
Broward County's housing stock varies dramatically by neighborhood and each requires different remodel considerations. Las Olas Isles waterfront properties demand hurricane-impact cabinetry attachment and salt-air-resistant finishes. Coral Ridge mid-century homes often need substrate remediation before any flooring or stone work. Victoria Park bungalows have unique structural quirks from 1920s construction. Rio Vista estates support open-plan kitchen integrations that take full advantage of the Intracoastal Waterway views. We design every Fort Lauderdale kitchen around its neighborhood and its specific building stock.
Our scope typically covers demolition and disposal, structural and substrate prep, plumbing and gas rough-in coordination, custom or semi-custom cabinetry installation, countertop fabrication and installation (quartz, quartzite, marble, granite, or large-format porcelain slab), backsplash, flooring, lighting, appliance fit-out, and final finishing. We work directly with South Florida's top slab yards in Doral and Hialeah to hand-select your stone. Fort Lauderdale clients regularly join us for showroom visits to approve the exact veining pattern for book-matched marble countertops and full-height backsplashes before any cutting begins.
Every kitchen remodel in Fort Lauderdale that involves plumbing, electrical, or gas requires permits from the City of Fort Lauderdale Building Services Division. Coastal exposure zones have additional hurricane code requirements for cabinetry attachment and window proximity. Condo buildings along Galt Mile and along the Intracoastal add HOA architectural review on top of city permits. We handle all of it — submittal, inspection scheduling, and certificate of occupancy.
The signature kitchen look in Fort Lauderdale's high-end residential market is the seamless, statement-piece kitchen: a single waterfall island in Calacatta Gold, a full-height backsplash in matching book-matched marble, and minimal upper cabinetry to keep the slab the focal point. Executing this look requires sourcing slabs cut from the same block, careful templating to align veining across surfaces, and millimeter-precise installation. We are one of the few crews in Broward County that handles 5x10 foot porcelain slabs with the rigging, leveling, and seam-bonding required to install them without lippage or hairline cracks.

"Full kitchen renovation in our Las Olas Isles home. AP Stone handled the City of Fort Lauderdale permits, sourced the perfect Taj Mahal quartzite, and installed a waterfall island with invisible seams. Eight weeks start to finish, exactly as quoted."

"Coral Ridge mid-century home needed a full kitchen update plus structural work to open the wall to the dining room. AP Stone coordinated everything — engineer, permits, demo, install. The book-matched Calacatta is breathtaking."

"Rio Vista Intracoastal home. AP Stone matched the kitchen marble to the existing master bath stone we had done years earlier. Total continuity. Their attention to detail is what kept us coming back."

Kitchen remodels in Fort Lauderdale typically range from $35,000 for a refresh to $150,000+ for a full luxury renovation with custom cabinetry, book-matched marble, and high-end appliances. Most mid-range Broward kitchen remodels land between $55,000 and $95,000. Final cost depends on square footage, slab selection, cabinetry, and waterfront hurricane code requirements.
A typical Fort Lauderdale kitchen remodel takes 6 to 10 weeks from demo to final walkthrough. Waterfront properties along the Intracoastal often add 1 to 2 weeks for hurricane-impact verification and HOA approvals. We provide a written timeline at contract signing and update you weekly with photos.
Yes. Any kitchen remodel in Fort Lauderdale that involves plumbing, electrical, or gas changes requires permits from the City of Fort Lauderdale Building Services Division. Condo buildings along Galt Mile additionally require HOA architectural review. AP Stone manages permitting and HOA paperwork as part of every kitchen remodel.
Quartz and quartzite are the best choices for Fort Lauderdale waterfront kitchens because they tolerate salt-air infiltration better than marble. Quartz is non-porous and zero-maintenance. Quartzite offers natural-stone aesthetics with high stain and heat resistance. Marble works in inland kitchens but requires more diligent sealing in coastal zones.
