Lutz is a community of larger lots, lakefront and equestrian properties, gated golf neighborhoods, and family master-planned communities, and the kitchen is where it all comes together. The trouble is that many Lutz kitchens no longer fit the home. Older ranch and acreage homes have closed-off kitchens ready for an update, while upscale custom, golf, and lakefront homes call for open floor plans, high-end finishes, and a true custom island.
CMK Construction has been remodeling Lutz kitchens for over two decades. We know how to open up dated ranch layouts, how to deliver the finishes that golf and lakefront homeowners expect, how acreage homes can involve well, septic, and flood-zone considerations, and how gated communities require HOA architectural-review approvals. Because Lutz is unincorporated, permits run through Hillsborough County for most of Lutz and Pasco County for the northern portion, and CMK handles all of it.
From professional cabinet installation to full gut remodels, CMK handles every part of your kitchen remodel.
Custom and semi-custom cabinets that finally run to the ceiling, plus oversized islands with the seating and storage builder kitchens never had.

A kitchen in a gated Cheval or Heritage Harbor golf home is a completely different job than a kitchen in an older acreage ranch near Oak Grove or a family home in Calusa Trace or Stonebrier. The golf and lakefront homes call for high-end finishes, a true custom island, and HOA architectural-review approvals. The older ranch and acreage homes are ready to be opened up. The lakefront and equestrian properties can involve well, septic, and flood-zone considerations.
Many share one problem: the kitchen is closed off from the rest of the home. Ranch kitchens cut off from the living room. Builder-grade kitchens with thin cabinets and no island. Dated layouts that waste the square footage these larger Lutz homes have. None of them match how Lutz families actually live, which is casually, with room to spread out, and usually with company.
We've solved every one of these, hundreds of times. Load-bearing walls removed with engineered beams and county permits. HOA architectural-review paperwork managed without you lifting a finger. High-end finishes and custom islands designed for golf and lakefront homes. That's what two decades of upscale Tampa Bay kitchens teaches you.
Lutz homeowners have choices. Here's why thousands of Tampa Bay families have chosen CMK, and why they refer us to their neighbors.

Real reviews from Lutz kitchen remodel clients across Cheval, Heritage Harbor, Calusa Trace, Stonebrier, Willow Bend, and the lakefront and acreage homes in between.
"Full remodel of our Cheval golf home kitchen. CMK handled the HOA architectural-review paperwork, kept the job site spotless behind the gate, and the finished kitchen opened up the whole back of the house. The custom quartz island is the showpiece. Worth every week of the wait."
"Our older ranch on acreage near Oak Grove had the original closed-off kitchen. CMK removed the wall to the living room with an engineered beam, opened up the layout, and our project manager Barry walked us through every step. The house finally feels like one space instead of little rooms."
"We replaced the builder-grade kitchen in our Calusa Trace family home with custom cabinets, a quartz island, and new lighting. Picking everything at the Tampa showroom in person made the decisions easy. On schedule, on budget, and the install crew was meticulous."
"Our Heritage Harbor home backs up to the golf course and we wanted finishes that matched. CMK designed high-end cabinetry, a big custom island, and handled the HOA approval paperwork start to finish. The crew respected the gated community rules every single day."
"Lakefront home on acreage, complete kitchen remodel. CMK worked around our well and septic, opened the kitchen to the great room, and built a custom island that seats six. The new layout and high-end finishes completely changed how we entertain."
"Open-concept conversion in our Stonebrier home. Daily updates from the project manager, a clean job site every evening, and the schedule they promised is the schedule they kept. We've already recommended CMK to two neighbors in Willow Bend."
Estimates are where good and bad contractors look the most alike. These are the questions that separate them, worth asking any Lutz company before signing a contract, not just CMK.
Why it matters: Unlicensed contractors can void your homeowner's insurance and leave you personally liable for code violations.
Good answer: A state-issued CGC license number printed on every estimate, plus general liability and workers' comp on file. CMK is CGC 1516665 with Registered Electrical Contractor ER 13016498.
Why it matters: Homeowner-pulled permits make you personally liable for code compliance, not the contractor.
Good answer: The contractor pulls every Hillsborough or Pasco County permit, handles HOA architectural-review paperwork where it applies, and schedules every inspection at no extra charge.
Why it matters: Without a named project manager, you'll spend the build chasing updates from a salesperson who's already moved on to the next deal.
Good answer: A named PM, a real person you can call, who visits the job multiple times per week and communicates daily.
Why it matters: "We stand behind our work" is not a warranty. Get it in writing before you sign.
Good answer: A written, named warranty that covers both workmanship and materials for at least one year. CMK's Peace of Mind Warranty does both.
Why it matters: Catalog-only selections lead to surprises on install day. Tile and stone look completely different under real lighting.
Good answer: A real, walkable showroom where you handle cabinet doors, countertop slabs, tile samples, and fixtures before anything is ordered. The 4,000 sq ft CMK Design Studio on W. Hillsborough Ave is open to active clients.
Why it matters: "It'll take a few months" is not a schedule. Vague timelines almost always slip.
Good answer: A written project schedule with named milestones (demo, rough-in, cabinet install, countertop template, final inspection) and weekly progress updates.
