Kitchen Remodeling in Broomall, PA
Custom kitchens for Broomall’s post-war split-levels, ranches, and contemporary rebuilds — designed and built by one team, on a fixed price, since 1989.
Last updated: May 2026 · Alex Smearman, Fedor Fabrication
Most kitchen remodels go wrong the same way
It’s almost always one of these three:
- The estimate that creeps the moment the walls come open.
- The crew that vanishes for two weeks at a stretch.
- The finger-pointing when the designer and the builder stop talking.
The fear of landing there is the real reason a lot of good kitchens stay dated for years — and it’s a reasonable one. It’s the thing we built this company to put to rest.
A Broomall kitchen is a major, months-long, often six-figure decision — and most of Broomall is 1950s and 1960s post-war split-levels and ranches in Marple Township, where the original kitchen is usually a closed-off, dated space that wants cabinetry to the ceiling, updated systems, and often a wall opened to the dining or living room. So before you commit, you want straight answers: what it really costs, how long it really takes, and what it’s like to live through. That’s what the rest of this page is for.
We’ve rebuilt Broomall kitchens since 1989 on fixed-price contracts, with one point of contact who answers your calls — so the number is real before you sign, and you’re never the one chasing us.
What a Broomall kitchen remodel actually involves

Most Broomall kitchen work is one of three jobs, and the same patterns repeat across all of them:
1950s–1960s post-war split-levels & ranches — the largest share of Broomall housing. Typical scope:
- Cabinetry to the ceiling — remove the soffit, replace builder-grade boxes
- Quartz countertops in calmer patterns
- Modern lighting — under-cabinet LED, pendants, dimmer zones
- Higher-spec appliances, often paneled refrigeration and pro-grade ranges
- Layout usually stays — these kitchens are large enough that wall removal isn’t needed
Mid-century traditionals (1950s–1970s) — smaller share, often built closed-off:
- Wall-removal openings to connect the kitchen to the rest of the house
- Standard post-WWII pattern finished with high-end materials
Post-2010 contemporary rebuilds — often only 8–12 years old, refresh-tier scope:
- Replace the original quartz with new spec
- Swap panel-front fixtures for higher-spec integrated units
What’s distinctive about Broomall: integrated appliances, paneled refrigeration, and custom millwork are the default rather than the upgrade.

The same crew, start to finish
The people in your home are our own carpenters — not subcontracted labor that shows up one day and disappears the next. It’s why the work holds up, and why homeowners keep telling us our crews are the most respectful, communicative people they’ve had in their house.
Cost ranges for Broomall kitchens
Bids for a project like this land all over the map — and the lowest one is usually the one that climbs the most once the walls come down. We’d rather hand you the honest range up front.
| Tier | Range | Typical Broomall project |
|---|---|---|
| Cosmetic Refresh | $30,000 – $45,000 | Refresh on a post-2010 contemporary kitchen |
| Pull-and-Replace | $40,000 – $75,000+ | Lighter-scope subdivision projects keeping appliances and lighting |
| Full Remodel | $65,000 – $120,000+ | Standard post-war remodel scope — most projects land here |
| Custom Kitchen Build | $100,000 – $150,000+ | Down-to-studs custom on subdivision or contemporary rebuild |
Two dials set the price: scope and finish — and they move independently. Scope is how much work and how big the project is — a cosmetic refresh keeps your layout and cabinet boxes and updates the surfaces; a pull-and-replace swaps everything within the same footprint; a full remodel moves walls and reworks the layout; a custom build takes the kitchen down to the studs. Finish is the separate dial: you can pull-and-replace with Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Great Northern cabinetry, or take a full custom build and stay budget-conscious with Tribeca cabinetry and GE Café appliances. The scope tier sets the size of the job; where you spend within it is yours to steer. We’ll install whatever you spec — the brands below are simply the lines we reach for most.
Most Broomall projects land in the Full Remodel tier; on sound post-war bones, cabinetry and countertop selection moves the number more than structural work does. Material selection (especially custom cabinetry and paneled appliances) is the biggest budget lever. Appliances are not included in these ranges unless noted in your project scope.

Selections
The cabinetry, counters, and appliances we install
We build from lines that hold up in a working kitchen — not whatever’s on promotion. Here’s what we typically spec, and we don’t take supplier kickbacks on any of it:
- Cabinetry: six lines, accessible to fully custom — Tribeca, Aspect, Century, Shiloh, Eclipse, and Great Northern (plywood boxes, dovetailed drawers, soft-close throughout)
- Countertops: Cambria, Caesarstone, Silestone, and Emerston quartz; granite and quartzite slabs from Imperial Marble & Granite
- Plumbing fixtures: Kohler, Delta, Brizo, Hansgrohe, and Rohl — specified through Ferguson and Weinstein Supply
- Appliances: from GE Café and KitchenAid up to Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Miele, Bosch, and Monogram — sourced at cost through Gerhard’s
Our Design-Build Process

Most remodels go sideways for the same reason: design and construction don’t talk to each other. The designer draws something the builder can’t actually build for the price quoted, and you’re stuck in the middle.
We use a design-build model — the team that designs your Broomall kitchen is the team that builds it. By the time you get a contract, every line is priced, every spec is confirmed, and the high-spec selections that drive Broomall budgets — paneled refrigeration, custom millwork, integrated appliances — are locked, not left as allowances that drift upward.
The 8 steps, start to finish
- First Call — 15 minutes with Alex, the owner, to hear what you’re planning.
- In-Home Consultation — we walk the space and listen.
- Design + Initial Estimate — a concept and a real budget range.
- Selections & Refinement — every finish chosen before we build.
- Fixed-Price Proposal — every line priced; the number is real before you sign.
- Pre-Construction — permits, ordering, scheduling, staging.
- Construction — carpenter-led crews, one point of contact, weekly updates.
- Walkthrough + Warranty — closeout, backed by a 1-year workmanship warranty.
On schedule — and you’re never chasing us
“Nobody showed up for two weeks” doesn’t happen here. We block dedicated crew time and hold to it, with one point of contact who answers your calls and a live portal showing exactly where your project stands.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Broomall?
Broomall kitchen remodels run $30,000 to $150,000+, and most land in the Full Remodel tier. A lighter pull-and-replace keeping appliances and lighting runs $40K–$75K; a standard subdivision full remodel runs $65K–$120K+; a down-to-studs custom build on a subdivision or contemporary rebuild runs $100K–$150K+ and often beyond. Most Broomall projects land in the Full Remodel tier — on sound 1950s–60s post-war bones the work is finishes-driven, so cabinetry and countertop selection moves the number more than structure does. Appliances aren’t included unless noted in scope. The free cost guide above breaks every tier down.
How long does a Broomall kitchen remodel take?
Most Broomall kitchen remodels run 6–8 weeks of active construction once cabinetry and materials are on site. The full timeline from first call to final walkthrough is typically 3–5 months. Subdivision homes have sound infrastructure so there’s no old-house surprise work, but high-spec custom cabinetry and paneled appliances carry longer lead times — that’s usually the schedule driver, not construction. We give you a hard date at proposal and update it weekly in the JobTread portal so you always know where the project stands.
What’s included in your fixed-price quote?
Everything we can see at signing: design, all materials (cabinetry, countertops, tile, fixtures, hardware), all labor and trade partners (electrical through our electrician, plumbing through our plumber, tile, finish carpentry), permits, inspections, dumpster, project management, and the final walkthrough. On a 1950s–60s Broomall home there’s far less hidden-condition risk than on a pre-war house — the value of fixed price here is locking your selections so the number doesn’t drift as you choose finishes. Appliances are included only if noted in your scope. The only thing that changes the number is scope you add after signing, documented and approved by you in writing first.
What happens when you open a wall in a 1950s or 1960s split-level Broomall home?
Rarely dramatic — a 1950s–60s Broomall split-level or ranch was built with more modern framing than a pre-war house, though we sometimes find an original or 1960s panel, or galvanized supply on an exterior wall. The main thing we confirm before opening a wall in these homes is whether it’s load-bearing, because open-concept-era floor plans often used engineered framing that needs a stamped beam design when you remove a wall. We bring in a Pennsylvania-registered structural engineer when a load path is involved, scoped and priced on the proposal. Anything we can’t fully see, we flag — but on these homes it’s the exception, not the rule.
Can I keep my existing kitchen layout?
It depends on the house — many 1950s–60s Broomall ranches and split-levels were built with the kitchen closed off, so opening the wall to the dining or living room is often the highest-impact move. Where the layout already works, a pull-and-replace taking cabinetry to the ceiling and lifting the finish level is the right call. We give you an honest read on your specific kitchen; we won’t push a layout change you don’t need just to grow the project.
What if I want to remove a wall or add an island?
Common on mid-century traditionals, less so on subdivision homes that already have open plans. If the wall is load-bearing — frequently the case in open-concept-era framing — we bring in a Pennsylvania-registered structural engineer for a stamped beam design, scoped and priced on the proposal, not improvised mid-project. A large island with seating, second sink, or beverage zone is one of the most-requested Broomall features; we account for the cabinet, electrical, and any plumbing runs it needs from the start.
What cabinetry and materials do you typically install in Broomall kitchens?
Broomall clients most often run semi-custom or custom cabinetry to the ceiling with quartz countertops, sometimes stepping up to paneled appliances. We spec cabinetry through Shiloh and Great Northern, tile and stone through Devon Tile or The Tile Shop in King of Prussia, plumbing fixtures through Ferguson, and appliances through Gerhard’s in Ardmore. We don’t take supplier kickbacks — the recommendation is based on what holds up in a working kitchen, not on our margin.
Do you work with my architect or interior designer?
Yes — many Broomall clients already have a design relationship. We function as the build half of a design-build collaboration: if you have drawings, we review them, tell you what works and what won’t build for the price assumed, then build to spec. If you don’t, our in-house design-build covers it end to end.
What appliance brands do you work with?
We work across the full price spectrum. On the high end, paneled Sub-Zero refrigeration, Wolf or Thermador ranges, and Miele integrated dishwashers come up regularly on Broomall projects. We also work with step-down lines like GE Monogram, GE Café, Bosch, and KitchenAid when clients want the look without the top-tier price tag. Appliance lead times are usually the longest item on a Broomall schedule, so we lock the package early.
What does Marple Township permitting cost for a kitchen project?
Permit fees through Marple Township typically run 1–2% of contract value. On a $110,000 subdivision kitchen, expect roughly $1,100–$2,200. We pull every required permit, schedule the inspections around the production schedule, and show the permit cost as a transparent line item on the proposal — it’s never buried in markup or sprung on you mid-project.
Do I need to hire my own designer?
No separate designer needed — we’re design-build, so the team that designs your Broomall kitchen is the team that builds it; nothing gets drawn that we can’t build for the price quoted (and we collaborate cleanly if you already have a designer, which many Broomall clients do).
How will you communicate with me during construction?
During construction you get one point of contact who answers calls and texts, weekly progress updates, and a heads-up before anything becomes a problem, plus the live JobTread portal showing schedule, budget, and invoices.
Can I see Broomall kitchen projects you’ve completed?
Yes — see our Lantern Pendants Kitchen Remodel and the full project portfolio.
Do you also remodel bathrooms in Broomall?
Yes — Broomall bathroom remodeling — same fixed-price model, same Marple Township permitting, same in-house crews. See everything we do in Broomall.
