Kitchen Remodeling in Wayne, NJ, Drawn and Built by One Team

5.0 from 56 Google reviews

Devin Hamlett draws and renders every project himself, then runs the build with the company's own crew. You walk through your new kitchen in 3D before a single wall comes down.

See the finished room first, then decide

Most kitchen remodeling in Wayne, NJ runs through three hires: a designer, a round of bids, then a builder. Hamlett Renovations keeps all of it under one contract.

The team laser-measures your room, draws two or more layouts and renders the result in photorealistic 3D, so you can change it on screen before anything is ordered.

The price is then built line by line against the drawings you approved, with allowances named for anything still to be picked. Hamlett even posts its ranges: $35,000 to $60,000 for a refresh that keeps the layout, and $60,000 to $140,000 for a full design-build kitchen.

We are very happy with our bathroom renovation from Hamlett. Our job involved stripping the old bathroom down to the studs and totally rebuilding, including new electric and plumbing.

Kitchen and bath questions we hear in Wayne

What does a kitchen remodel cost in Wayne and Bergen County?

Hamlett publishes its ranges. A refresh that keeps the layout runs $35,000 to $60,000. A full design-build kitchen, with walls or plumbing moving and new cabinetry, runs $60,000 to $140,000. Cabinetry line and door style move the number most, followed by countertop material and slab count.

How long will my kitchen or bathroom be out of use?

A kitchen refresh that leaves walls, plumbing and appliance spots alone runs 3 to 6 weeks. A full design-build kitchen runs 10 to 14 weeks, and cabinet lead time is usually the biggest variable, so cabinets are ordered early. Most bathrooms take 2 to 4 weeks.

Do I have to pay for the first meeting?

No. The consultation is no charge and takes 60 to 90 minutes in your home. A paid design phase only applies when the layout is changing, and that fee is credited in full toward construction. If you decide not to build, you keep the drawings and renderings.

Are you licensed and insured in New Jersey?

Yes. Hamlett holds New Jersey Home Improvement Contractor license #13VH12093400, carries general liability and workers' compensation, and pulls its own permits in the towns it works in. Structural drawings are reviewed and sealed by a licensed New Jersey architect inside Hamlett's contract.

I already have architect plans. Can you still help?

Yes. For a plan review, the team renders your existing drawings in 3D, flags what will not build or will blow the budget, and gives you a real construction number against the design you own. The review costs $1,500, credited toward construction.
