Gold Hands offers kitchen remodeling in Homestead, FL: cabinet installation or refacing, countertop coordination and install, backsplash tile, sink and faucet, appliances, lighting, paint and flooring. Every kitchen is priced per project. Send photos and rough measurements by phone or WhatsApp and we return a free estimate; any work that needs a permit in Miami-Dade County goes through our general contractor partner.
In Homestead, most kitchen calls start with the same complaint: the cabinets are tired, the laminate counter is chipped near the sink, and the backsplash is a strip of builder tile nobody chose. Some owners want to keep the layout and swap surfaces; others want the wall between kitchen and dining room gone. Both are kitchen remodels, but they are very different jobs, and the first conversation is about which one you actually need.
The fastest way to start is a text or WhatsApp to (786) 788-8714. Send a wide photo of each wall, a close-up of the sink cabinet and the area under it, and the length of each counter run. Mention whether you are keeping the appliances. We reply with questions or a free estimate priced for your project, and we can handle the whole conversation in Spanish if you prefer.

Kitchens in post-Andrew homes in Homestead
South Dade around Homestead was hit hard by Hurricane Andrew in 1992; much of the housing was rebuilt to tougher code, and newer subdivisions keep filling in next to farmland toward the Redland.
Homes in Goulds, Naranja, Princeton and Florida City built after Andrew often have kitchens that open to a family room, with a raised breakfast bar and a pass-through. Owners now ask us to flatten that bar into one level island top, add seating, and replace the cabinet run with something deeper and better organized. That kind of change usually stays in finish work as long as the sink and range stay put.
Impact windows and shutters protect the house, but the kitchen schedule still has to respect hurricane season, June 1 to November 30. Stone slabs and special-order cabinets can be delayed when storms disrupt shipping, and work stops when a storm approaches so the house can be secured. We order materials early, keep the site tidy so it can be closed up quickly, and tell you if a delivery date moves.

Kitchens on larger Homestead properties
Outdoor kitchens are a common request on bigger lots in Homestead. Exterior-rated cabinets, a stone or concrete top, a sink and space for a built-in grill can turn a covered patio into a usable cooking area. Florida sun, rain and humidity are hard on materials, so we steer you toward finishes that tolerate weather rather than indoor cabinets that will swell and peel.
Running gas, water and new circuits out to a patio is permitted work, handled through our general contractor partner with the City of Homestead or Florida City building department, or Miami-Dade County for unincorporated Goulds, Naranja and Princeton addresses. If the property is on a well or septic system, as many larger lots in Goulds, Naranja, Princeton and Florida City are, we take that into account for the sink and talk through whether a disposal makes sense for your system. Those decisions are made before you buy equipment, not after.
From photos to a finished kitchen in Homestead
- Estimate from photos: you text or WhatsApp photos of each wall, the sink cabinet and the floor, plus counter lengths and ceiling height. We reply with questions or a free estimate priced for your project.
- Written scope and schedule: we list cabinets, counters, backsplash, fixtures and finish work item by item, note what you supply and what we supply, and agree on a start date that follows material arrival.
- Permits where required: plumbing moves, new circuits and wall changes are pulled by our general contractor partner with the City of Homestead or Florida City building department, or Miami-Dade County for unincorporated Goulds, Naranja and Princeton addresses, and inspections are scheduled before walls or cabinets close up.
- The work: demolition with dust protection, cabinet install, countertop template by the stone shop, then counter install, backsplash, sink, appliances and lighting, in that order so each step has a finished surface to work on.
- Final walkthrough: we open every door and drawer, run the water and disposal, test appliances and lights, touch up caulk and paint, and send you photos of the finished kitchen with any notes.
Kitchen remodel timing: short jobs and long ones
Permits and approvals add time before any work starts. If the plan moves plumbing, adds circuits or opens a wall, our general contractor partner submits to the building department and the project waits on review and inspections. Condo and HOA approvals run on their own calendars, often tied to board meetings. A kitchen that keeps its layout skips most of this and starts sooner.

Kitchen Remodeling in Homestead — questions we get asked
What if you find old plumbing or wiring behind my kitchen walls?
In older homes it is common to find galvanized supply lines, cast-iron drains or wiring that does not support modern appliances. When the cabinets come out, we show you what we found with photos and explain the options before anything changes. Replacing those lines is permitted work handled by our general contractor partner with the City of Homestead or Florida City building department, or Miami-Dade County for unincorporated Goulds, Naranja and Princeton addresses, quoted separately so you can decide.
How do you estimate a kitchen remodel without coming to the house?
You send photos of each wall, the inside of the sink cabinet and the floor, plus counter lengths and ceiling height, by text or WhatsApp to (786) 788-8714. That is enough to price most kitchens. The estimate is free and priced per project. If something can only be judged in person, we tell you and can arrange a paid site visit.
How long will I be without a kitchen?
That depends on the scope. A refresh that keeps the cabinets interrupts the kitchen only briefly. A replacement leaves you without counters between cabinet install and countertop install, since the stone shop templates on the finished cabinets. Permitted changes add inspection waits. We give you the sequence in writing and, where possible, set up a temporary sink so you can manage during the gap.
What is not included in a kitchen remodel?
We do not fabricate stone countertops; the stone shop does that and we coordinate. Permitted plumbing, electrical, gas and structural work goes through our general contractor partner rather than our own crew. We also do not repair appliances or take on roof or exterior work. Anything outside the written scope is discussed and quoted before it is done, never added silently.
How do you deal with humidity and mold in a kitchen?
Most kitchen moisture problems start at the sink and the range. We use mildew-resistant silicone at the sink and backsplash, line the sink base, check supply lines and shutoffs before the new cabinet goes in, and recommend a hood that moves air outside where the building allows it. If we find mold behind the old cabinets, we show you before closing anything up.
