Kitchen remodeling in Seattle touches almost every trade at once: cabinetry, countertops, plumbing runs for the sink and dishwasher, an island that needs its own electrical circuit. The contractors on this page have logged 352 Google reviews between them, and every one holds a 4.8 rating or better, so the real decision comes down to who has actually built the kind of kitchen you're picturing.

Short answer: Iconiq Construction tops Seattle kitchen remodeling with a 5.0 rating across 105 Google reviews, the largest track record here, with Sea Renovation (5.0, 91 reviews) and Kitchen & More (5.0, 39 reviews, a dedicated kitchen and bath showroom) close behind. Cabinetry, countertops and appliance-related plumbing drive most of the cost, and every business here will scope it to your layout in a free estimate.

Iconiq Construction

5.0105 Google reviews

Iconiq Construction is a Seattle design-build firm covering kitchens, bathrooms, additions and new construction, with an in-house designer who works through cabinetry, countertop and layout choices alongside digital renderings before any demo starts. One reviewer who already used the company for a full primary-bathroom rebuild specifically booked them again for a kitchen remodel on the strength of that experience. Reviewers describe a project manager who visits daily to check crew work against the company's own standards.

What people praise

  • In-house designer produces renderings for cabinet and countertop choices before work begins
  • Daily on-site check-ins from a named project manager
  • Clear written timeline and payment schedule set at the outset
  • Repeat clients specifically book Iconiq again for a second room after a first project

Worth knowing

  • Book-ahead lead times during busy seasons

Sea Renovation

5.091 Google reviews

Sea Renovation is a Seattle general contractor that limits its scope to kitchens, bathrooms and decks rather than every trade, and its own site specifically markets custom cabinetry and premium countertops as its kitchen focus. Reviewers who hired the company for other projects (decks, flooring) describe a crew willing to flag budget-friendly material alternatives without sacrificing the finish. It is not the cheapest quote in most reviewers' experience, but they describe getting what they paid for.

What people praise

  • Markets custom cabinetry and premium countertops as a specific focus, not a side offering
  • Reviewers describe fair pricing tied to the quality delivered
  • Consistent communication described across multiple project types
  • One crew for cabinetry, countertops, flooring and lighting means fewer subcontractors to coordinate

Worth knowing

  • Most of the detailed reviews on this page describe decks and flooring rather than kitchens specifically

Our take: A strong custom-cabinetry pick on paper, though ask to see kitchen-specific project photos since the loudest reviews here are about other rooms.

Elite Team Builders Inc.

5.056 Google reviews

Elite Team Builders Inc. is a Pacific Northwest general contractor working across Seattle, Portland and Los Angeles, and reviewers describe kitchen jobs covering cabinets, tile work and LVP flooring in one project.

  • Perfect 5.0 rating with zero reviews below five stars
  • Reviewers specifically praise daily cleanup during multi-week kitchen jobs
  • Handles cabinets, tile, flooring and plumbing connections as one package
  • Described as upfront and honest about realistic timelines versus competitors

Worth knowing

J & M Remodel

4.861 Google reviews

J & M Remodel is a family-owned Seattle general contractor whose own site leads with kitchen project photos, describing work that opens kitchen walls into dining rooms and installs new cabinetry, countertops and tile. One reviewer, herself an interior designer, says she hands her design concepts to J & M specifically because they get executed to the level of detail she expects, and recommends the company to her own clients. Reviewers describe new wood flooring, tile and full cabinet installs completed on schedule.

What people praise

  • An interior designer reviewer specifically vouches for execution quality on her own clients' projects
  • Reviewers describe opening kitchen walls into dining rooms with clean, finished results
  • On-site project manager gives timely updates through the remodel
  • Reasonable pricing per multiple reviewers

Worth knowing

  • Slightly lower overall rating than the other top picks here, tied to a small number of less glowing reviews
  • Smaller crew size than the larger design-build firms on this list

Kitchen & More

5.039 Google reviews

Kitchen & More runs a dedicated kitchen and bath showroom in Seattle where clients see cabinet, countertop and hardware materials in person before committing, rather than working from samples alone. Reviewers describe full kitchen remodels, from demo through cabinetry installation, with a named designer and project manager pairing on each job. One reviewer says they interviewed the companies before choosing Kitchen & More, and completed the project without a single scratch to floors or walls.

What people praise

  • Physical showroom lets clients handle cabinet, countertop and hardware samples before buying
  • Reviewers describe zero collateral damage to floors and walls during full remodels
  • Named designer and project manager pairing on each job
  • Handles demo, procurement and installation as one team rather than separate subcontractors

Worth knowing

  • Fewer total reviews than the larger general contractors on this list, all newer than nine months old

How we rank them

Every figure here comes from public Google data as of the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume tracks how many customers have rated them, measured against other Seattle kitchen remodelers. Confidence weighs the rating against that volume, so a 5.0 built on a hundred-plus reviews counts for more than the same score from a handful. Recency reflects how recently people are still reviewing them. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Seattle? (2026)

Kitchen remodel costs in Seattle are driven mainly by cabinetry (stock versus custom), countertop material, whether appliance and plumbing lines are moving, and whether an island is being added or expanded. A cabinet refacing job and a full gut-to-the-studs remodel with a new island sit at completely different price points, and none of the businesses above post a fixed rate card, so treat any number you see elsewhere as a rough starting point and get a written quote for your actual layout.

Serving all of Seattle

The kitchen remodelers above cover Seattle proper and the wider metro, including Ballard, Wallingford, West Seattle, Capitol Hill, Bellevue and Redmond. Searching for a kitchen remodeler near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can reach the closest option fast.

What to ask before you hire a kitchen remodeling contractor

  • Are you licensed, bonded and insured to work in Washington? (Ask for the license number.)
  • Is the cabinetry stock, semi-custom or fully custom, and how does that change the timeline?
  • Who handles the plumbing and electrical connections for the sink, dishwasher and island?
  • Is the estimate flat-rate or subject to change once demo starts?
  • Do you handle permitting if we’re moving walls or gas lines?
  • How do you protect floors and adjoining rooms during a multi-week remodel?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these kitchen remodelers?

We started from kitchen remodeling contractors in Seattle with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we rank them above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

How long does a kitchen remodel take in Seattle?

A cabinet-and-countertop refresh can wrap in a few weeks. A full gut remodel that moves plumbing, electrical or walls typically runs six to twelve weeks depending on permitting and material lead times.

Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Seattle?

Work that touches plumbing, electrical, gas lines or structural walls generally needs a Seattle permit. Ask each contractor whether permitting and inspections are included in their quote.

The bottom line

Iconiq Construction is the safe default given its review depth and repeat clients across multiple rooms, while Kitchen & More is worth the showroom visit if you want to handle cabinet and countertop samples in person first. Either way, nail down who handles the plumbing and electrical for the island before signing.
