Kitchen Remodel Westminster, CO
Westminster kitchens from the 1970s and 80s were built when open-plan living wasn’t really a thing. Closed layouts, limited counter space, cabinets that top out before the ceiling. Forty years later, the house has changed owners but the kitchen hasn’t changed much else. Arch Design & Build fixes that — design, engineering, and construction under one contract
How Much Does a Kitchen Remodel Cost in Westminster?
The layout decision is where the cost splits.
Refreshing surfaces without touching plumbing or walls keeps you in the lower range. Moving the sink, opening a wall to the living room, or relocating the range puts you into structural and rough-in territory. In Westminster’s 1970s and 80s ranches, that wall between the kitchen and dining room is frequently load-bearing. We determine that on the first visit — before any design dollars are spent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you open up my closed 1970s kitchen in Westminster?
Usually yes — but we confirm what’s in the wall first. Load-bearing walls require engineered beams and structural permits. We handle both in-house, which is faster than bringing in a third-party engineer.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Westminster?
Cosmetic refresh: 3–5 weeks. Mid-range with plumbing changes: 5–8 weeks. Full gut with structural work: 8–12 weeks. City of Westminster permit review is built into the timeline from day one.
My kitchen and dining room are separate. Is it worth combining them?
In most Westminster ranches, yes — it’s the single change that most transforms how the home lives and feels. We’ll show you exactly what that looks like in VR before any walls come down.
