Complete Kitchen Removal & Demolition Services

Before your new kitchen can go in, the old one has to come out. Serving homeowners across New England, we handle the full removal — cabinets, countertops, splashbacks, flooring, and appliances — leaving you with a clean, level space that is ready for your new installation.

Typical price range: $600 - $2,500

About Kitchen Removal

A proper kitchen removal sets the stage for a successful new installation. Rushing this step can damage walls, flooring, and surrounding structures. Our removal team works methodically, removing components in the correct sequence to protect everything around the work area — whether you are in a century-old Boston triple-decker or a modern Providence condo.

We carefully remove appliances and either set them aside for your reuse, donate, or haul them to a recycling facility. We then remove countertops, detach wall and base cabinets, and strip splashbacks and wall tiles. Note: disconnection of water, gas, and electrical services must be done by a licensed plumber or electrician before our removal begins.

Wall repair is a critical part of the process. Removing cabinets and tiles inevitably leaves anchor holes, adhesive residue, and sometimes damaged drywall or the plaster-and-lath construction common in older Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island homes. We patch holes, scrape adhesive, and skim-coat damaged sections so the walls are smooth and ready for your new splashback or paint.

Flooring under old cabinets is often missing or in poor condition. We assess the subfloor and advise whether a patch, leveling compound, or full replacement is needed before new cabinets go in. Getting the floor right at this stage prevents problems with cabinet leveling later.

All debris is sorted for responsible disposal. Wood, metal, and cardboard are separated for recycling, and we haul everything away in a single trip. Whether your project is in Somerville, West Hartford, Newport, or Mystic, you are left with a clean, swept space and a detailed condition report noting any structural items to address before the new kitchen is installed.

How It Works

1

Pre-Removal Check

We verify that all water, gas, and electrical services have been disconnected by your licensed plumber or electrician before we begin the removal.

2

Appliance Removal

All appliances are carefully removed and staged for reuse, donation, or recycling according to your preference.

3

Cabinet, Countertop & Splashback Removal

Countertops are detached, cabinets are unscrewed and removed, and splashbacks or tiles are stripped from the walls with care to minimize wall damage.

4

Wall & Floor Preparation

We patch wall holes, scrape adhesive residue, and assess the subfloor condition. Any issues that could affect the new installation are documented.

5

Debris Haul-Away & Cleanup

All materials are sorted for recycling, loaded, and hauled away. The space is swept clean and a condition report is provided.
