Why Rowan Construction Group Boca Raton Is Boca Raton’s Preferred Kitchen Remodeling Company
We’ve delivered 4,000-plus projects since 2007, every one with a written price before work started and a documented photo record when the crew left. In Boca Raton, that discipline matters more than most places. The city’s master-planned communities, built largely by Arvida Corporation from the late 1960s through the 1990s, now sit in an aging cohort where kitchen remodels routinely uncover outdated electrical, non-compliant windows, and load-bearing walls that were never engineered for today’s open-concept layouts.
Our crews are background-checked and uniformed; a live person answers calls 24/7. Under Clause 1 of The Haven Standard, the price is written before anyone starts. Under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, if it is not done right, we make it right, backed by a terms page, not an asterisk. We don’t ask you to trust our enthusiasm. We show you the documentation.
Grant Rowan built this company on signed change orders. No work proceeds on a change until the change order is signed. That administrative discipline, acquired by Haven, is why our projects finish within a few percent of the number the customer agreed to.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services in Boca Raton
Full Kitchen Remodeling
A full kitchen remodel in Boca Raton means more than new cabinets and counters. It means navigating the city’s dual-track approval system: the building department plus the HOA Architectural Review Board of communities like Boca West, Broken Sound, Woodfield, or Boca Pointe. These ARBs must approve cabinet finish colors, countertop profiles, and even backsplash tile before a permit is issued. In Boca Pointe, we remodeled a 1980s CBS kitchen where the homeowner’s ARB initially rejected our proposed Cambria quartz in favor of a lighter Silestone to match community standards. Our crew adjusted the cabinet color to KraftMaid’s ‘Dove White,’ upgraded the rough-in for a new island with a Moen pot filler, and secured inspection sign-off on the load-bearing wall removal. The final scope included impact-rated sliding doors that satisfied both the HOA and Florida Building Code wind-load requirements, keeping the project under the substantial improvement threshold.
Cabinets & Countertops
We source across fifty-plus vetted brands, giving the written quote honest numbers rather than inflated ones. For Boca Raton kitchens, that means KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets, Cambria and Caesarstone countertops, with specs that meet both your community’s aesthetic standards and the Florida Building Code. Cabinet installation runs $4,000-$13,000; countertop installation, $2,000-$6,500. The substrate matters in this market. Boca Raton’s CBS construction often means concrete block walls that require specialized anchoring for cabinet mounting, particularly in older homes where the original installation predated current fastening standards.
Kitchen Design & Layout
Layout changes in Boca Raton trigger structural scrutiny fast. Remove a wall to open the kitchen to the living area, and you’re into load-bearing verification, potential beam installation, and permit drawings stamped by a Florida-licensed engineer. Our design process includes a preliminary structural assessment before the quote is written, so the price you see accounts for beam specs, connector hardware, and the inspection sequence. We don’t discover costs after demolition. That’s not how The Haven Standard works.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Backsplash installation in Boca Raton runs $800-$2,500. Tile and flooring scope varies with substrate condition; CBS slab-on-grade construction means moisture testing before any flooring adhesive goes down. The water table sits 2-4 feet below grade across much of the city, and the oolitic limestone substrate can wick moisture. We document substrate conditions with photos, explain what they mean for material selection, and write the remediation into the scope if needed. No surprises after the quote is signed.
Kitchen Island Installation
Island installation runs $3,000-$10,000, with electrical and plumbing rough-in as separate line items. In Boca Raton’s older planned communities, the original slab may not have been poured with island utilities in mind. We verify electrical panel capacity, check for GFCI compliance, and coordinate the rough-in inspection before cabinetry arrives. The photo record shows you what we found and what we did.

Common Kitchen Remodeling Problems We See in Boca Raton Homes
- ARB rejection after demolition starts. Contractors who skip the HOA Architectural Review Board submission find themselves mid-project with a stop-work order and a material palette that doesn’t match community standards. We submit ARB packages before permit application, with finish samples and elevation drawings included.
- FEMA substantial improvement triggers. In a city where median home values regularly exceed $700K-$900K, a high-end kitchen remodel on an older home can exceed 50% of the structure’s market value, mandating full current flood and wind-code compliance, including impact glazing and structural upgrades. We calculate this threshold before the quote is written.
- Non-impact-rated exterior openings. Any kitchen remodel that touches an exterior door or window must use HVHZ-compliant, impact-rated products. Cheap bids often omit this, leaving homeowners with failed inspections and insurance non-compliance. Our quotes specify the Miami-Dade NOA product approval number.
- Undersized electrical panels. Arvida-era homes were built with 100-amp service panels that can’t handle modern appliance loads, induction cooktops, and the additional circuits a remodel requires. We verify panel capacity during the initial assessment and include upgrade scope when needed.

FAQs - Kitchen Remodeling in Boca Raton
Yes, if your home is in a master-planned community with an Architectural Review Board, such as Boca West, Broken Sound, or Woodfield, ARB approval is required before the city building department will issue a permit. We prepare ARB submission packages with finish samples, elevation drawings, and product cut sheets as a standard project step, not an afterthought. Call (754) 254-8065 to discuss your community’s specific requirements.
The FEMA substantial improvement rule requires that renovations exceeding 50% of a structure’s market value bring the entire building into full current flood and wind-code compliance. In Boca Raton, where FEMA flood zones cover large areas and median home values run high, a $40,000 kitchen remodel on an older $600,000 home can trigger mandatory impact window replacements, structural upgrades, and elevated electrical installations that add tens of thousands to the project. We calculate this threshold during our initial assessment and flag it in the written quote before you sign.
Existing cabinets can be retained if the boxes are structurally sound, the layout isn’t changing, and the finish meets any applicable ARB requirements. In practice, many Arvida-era homes have particleboard cabinet boxes that have absorbed decades of humidity and no longer hold fasteners reliably. We inspect the substrate, document what we find with photos, and explain what it means for your options. Call (754) 254-8065 to schedule an assessment.
Any exterior door or window touched by the remodel must be HVHZ-compliant and impact-rated, with a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance product approval. This is non-negotiable in Palm Beach County’s high-velocity hurricane zone. Our quotes specify the manufacturer, model, and NOA number; cheap bids often omit this, leaving you with failed inspections and potential insurance non-compliance. The documented photo record shows the product labels at installation.
Boca Raton’s dual-track system, building department plus ARB, typically adds 2-6 weeks compared to Delray Beach or Deerfield Beach, where no ARB layer exists. Timeline depends on your community’s ARB meeting schedule and whether first-round approval is granted. We build this into our project schedules and communicate milestones in writing. Call (754) 254-8065 for a timeline estimate specific to your property.
