We Know Lake Magdalene Homes Better Than Anyone
Lake Magdalene is one of north-central Hillsborough County's established lakefront communities, built around Lake Magdalene and its chain of lakes just north of Carrollwood. Mature, oak-lined neighborhoods like Lake Magdalene Arms, Lake Heather Estates, Chelsea Woods, and Sugarwood Grove. Genuine lakefront homes with dock and water views along the chain of lakes. Inland 1970s-through-1990s single-family homes on tree-lined streets, plus deed-restricted Carrollwood-area pockets off Dale Mabry Highway, Ehrlich Road, and Bearss Avenue. Most of these homes went up decades ago with their original kitchens and baths and closed-off layouts, and after twenty or thirty years they are ready for a true upgrade. A contractor who treats a lakefront home the same as an inland ranch will miss something. We don't.
CMK has remodeled hundreds of homes across Lake Magdalene. We've opened up closed 1980s floor plans in Lake Magdalene Arms and Whispering Oaks, replaced original cabinets and laminate with custom cabinetry and quartz, reworked kitchens in Carrollwood and Carrollwood Village, and built custom kitchens and baths in lakefront homes along Lake Magdalene and its chain of lakes. Slab plumbing reroutes, load-bearing wall removal, hurricane-impact upgrades, and HOA approvals across the area's many deed-restricted associations. We've seen it, solved it, and done it on a street near yours.
That's the difference between a generic Tampa Bay contractor and a Lake Magdalene specialist. Our Design Studio is a short drive down Dale Mabry Highway and the Veterans Expressway, so our crews are here all the time.

Reviews from Lake Magdalene Clients
"Original 1980s kitchen finally opened up in Lake Magdalene Arms. CMK took down the wall to the living room, added a large quartz island, and handled the HOA approval. We still finished on schedule. It looks like a custom home now, not the closed-off floor plan we bought."
"Spa master bath in our Carrollwood Village home. Freestanding tub, frameless walk-in shower, Schluter waterproofing throughout. CMK pulled the Hillsborough County permits and finished in seven weeks."
"Full kitchen and master bath in our lakefront Chelsea Woods home, both under one CMK contract. Same PM, same crew, same designer. Even the permits went through together."

Lake Magdalene Remodeling FAQ
Answers to what Lake Magdalene homeowners ask most before starting a kitchen or bathroom remodel: Hillsborough County permits, service coverage, history, multi-scope projects, and our showroom.
Yes. Lake Magdalene is an unincorporated community in Hillsborough County, so kitchen and bathroom remodels are permitted through Hillsborough County Development Services rather than a city office. Structural changes, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC all trigger permitting requirements, and any work that affects the exterior may also need approval from your community or HOA. CMK pulls every Hillsborough County permit under our own license numbers (General Contractor CGC 1516665, Plumbing CFC 1430533, and Electrical ER 13016498), so you never need to visit the permit office. Work done without permits can cause 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 every neighborhood in Lake Magdalene (33618, 33613, 33612, 33624, and 33549), including Lake Magdalene Arms, Lake Heather Estates, Chelsea Woods, Sugarwood Grove, Whispering Oaks, Emerald Forest, Carrollwood, Carrollwood Village, Greater Northdale, Lutz, Forest Hills, and North Lakes.

CMK Construction has been in business since 2004, more than 20 years of kitchen and bathroom remodeling across Tampa Bay. We have completed hundreds of remodels across Lake Magdalene, including established single-family homes in Lake Magdalene Arms and Chelsea Woods, mature-oak neighborhoods in Carrollwood and Carrollwood Village, and lakefront homes with dock and water views along Lake Magdalene and its chain of lakes.

Yes. CMK handles both scopes under one contract with a single dedicated project manager overseeing design, permits, scheduling, and inspections from start to finish. There is no handoff between teams and no competing contractors. Many Lake Magdalene homeowners combine a kitchen and bathroom remodel at the same time. It is often more efficient since permits are pulled together and the disruption happens in one stretch rather than two.
Yes. CMK's Tampa Design Studio is at 13329 W. Hillsborough Ave #102, about 15 to 20 minutes from Lake Magdalene via Dale Mabry Highway and the Veterans Expressway, the closest CMK showroom to Lake Magdalene.
