We Know Downtown Sarasota Homes Better Than Anyone
Downtown Sarasota is a vertical neighborhood. The high-rise condo towers along Gulfstream Avenue, the Bayfront, and Golden Gate Point, buildings like The Vue Sarasota Bay, Sarasota Bay Club, BLVD Sarasota, 1350 Main, and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, sit a few blocks from the historic cottages of Burns Court and Towles Court and the bungalows of Laurel Park. Remodeling here is different from remodeling in the suburbs. Condo work means freight-elevator scheduling, protecting shared corridors and lobbies, meeting building work-hour rules, and getting the association sign-off before a single wall moves. Historic downtown homes bring their own older framing and plumbing. Both reward a contractor who already knows the building and the permit office.
CMK has completed hundreds of remodels across Sarasota, including full condo kitchen and bath gut-remodels on upper floors, open-concept conversions in bayfront units, and careful updates to older residences near Main Street and Five Points. We coordinate with property managers and condo boards, plan material deliveries around elevator windows, and pull every City of Sarasota permit. When something unexpected shows up behind a wall on the fourteenth floor, we have already seen it.
There is a difference between a contractor who serves Sarasota and one who works downtown every week. CMK has crews in the area regularly. We are not driving down from Tampa and guessing at how a high-rise or the City of Sarasota building department works.

Reviews
Reviews from Downtown Sarasota Clients
★★★★★
"Our Golden Gate Point condo kitchen remodel with CMK was everything we hoped for. The closed-off galley had blocked the bay view for years, and CMK opened it toward the living room. The design session at their Sarasota showroom made every choice easy, and our project manager coordinated every elevator delivery. The finished kitchen is stunning."

"We had a tub-to-shower conversion done by CMK in our Rosemary District condo. They handled every City of Sarasota permit, coordinated with our building manager, and the finished tile work is exceptional. Couldn't be happier."

Common Questions
Downtown Sarasota Remodeling FAQ
Answers to what Downtown Sarasota condo and home owners ask most before starting a kitchen or bathroom remodel: permits, service coverage, timeline, and how CMK works.
Yes. Most kitchen and bathroom remodels in Downtown Sarasota require permits through the City of Sarasota building department, since downtown sits inside the city limits. That covers structural changes, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, and high-rise condo projects often need the association's approval as well. CMK pulls every permit under our own license numbers and coordinates with your building, so you never have to deal with the permit office. Work done without permits can create problems at resale and may void your homeowner's insurance. Schedule a consultation and we will walk through what your project requires.
Yes. CMK serves all of Downtown Sarasota, including Main Street and Five Points (34236), the Palm Avenue Arts District (34236), Gulfstream Avenue and the Bayfront (34236), the Quay (34236), Golden Gate Point (34236), the Rosemary District (34236), Burns Court (34236), Towles Court (34236), Laurel Park (34236), and Gillespie Park (34237).

Yes. CMK coordinates both scopes under a single contract with one project manager handling design, permits, scheduling, and inspections from start to finish. There is no juggling between separate contractors and no competing schedules. Many Downtown Sarasota condo owners combine a kitchen and bathroom remodel under one contract. Permits are pulled together, building approvals and elevator scheduling are handled once, and the disruption is consolidated into one project timeline instead of two.
Yes. CMK's 4,000 sq ft Sarasota Design Studio is at 3483 Clark Rd, Sarasota, FL 34231, about 10 to 15 minutes from Main Street, Golden Gate Point, and the Bayfront.
