"Full remodel of the kitchen in our Timber Oaks home. CMK opened the wall to the great room, built a huge quartz island, and matched the cabinetry to the rest of the house. Their project manager kept us posted every day and the crew left the site spotless. Worth every week of the wait."
Designed Around the Way Port Richey Families Live
Life in Port Richey happens around the water and the neighborhood, and the kitchen is where everyone lands afterward. The trouble is that most Port Richey kitchens were never built for that. Mid-century Florida ranch and concrete-block homes from the 1950s through the 1970s in Regency Park, Jasmine Lakes, and Bayonet Point, along with waterfront and canal homes on the Cotee River, Miller's Bayou, and the Gulf, all came from an era when the kitchen was closed off from the rest of the house.
CMK Construction has been remodeling Port Richey kitchens for over two decades. We know the slab plumbing inside older block homes, the HOA architectural review that deed-restricted communities like Timber Oaks and Sand Pebble Pointe require, the finishes that hold up to canal and gulf-side salt air, and the permit process through the City of Port Richey (or Pasco County for unincorporated areas). Open-concept conversions are the project we're asked for most, and we've done hundreds of them.

Built for Port Richey Homes, Not Generic Remodels.
A kitchen in a Harbor Isles or Waterway Estates waterfront home is a completely different job than a kitchen in a 1960s Regency Park concrete-block ranch or a home in a deed-restricted community like Timber Oaks. The waterfront and canal homes bring older coastal construction, canal-side conditions, and flood-zone considerations. The deed-restricted and 55+ communities bring HOA architectural review. Mid-century block homes in Jasmine Lakes and Bayonet Point often need slab plumbing reroutes and updated wiring. Newer 1990s and 2000s builds across the area each have their own quirks.
The layouts share one problem: they close the kitchen off from the rest of the home. Waterfront kitchens sealed behind a wall from the water view. Block-home kitchens cut off from the living room. Original kitchens with builder-grade cabinets, dated finishes, and no island. None of them match how people in Port Richey actually live, which is casually, with the gulf light in, and usually with company.
We've solved every one of these, hundreds of times. Load-bearing walls removed with engineered beams and City of Port Richey or Pasco County permits. HOA review and permit paperwork managed without you lifting a finger. Cabinet hardware and finishes chosen to stand up to salt air. That's what two decades of coastal Pasco kitchens teaches you.

Real reviews from Port Richey kitchen remodel clients across Timber Oaks, Harbor Isles, Regency Park, Jasmine Lakes, Waterway Estates, and Bayonet Point.
"Our Harbor Isles home sits right on a Gulf-access canal off Miller's Bayou and had the original closed-off kitchen. CMK removed the wall to the living room with an engineered beam, rerouted the plumbing, and our project manager Barry walked us through every step. The house finally feels like one open space with the water view we always wanted."
"We replaced the original kitchen in our 1960s Regency Park block home with custom cabinets, a quartz island, and new lighting. Picking everything at the showroom in person made the decisions easy. On schedule, on budget, and the install crew was meticulous."
"Our Jasmine Lakes home is a mid-century Florida ranch and the kitchen had never been touched. CMK designed cabinetry that fits the home perfectly, updated the wiring and plumbing behind the walls, and treated the place with real respect. The result looks like it belongs there."
"Waterway Estates canal home on the Cotee River, complete kitchen remodel. CMK steered us toward finishes and hardware that stand up to the salt air, which no other contractor even mentioned. The quartz island and new layout completely changed how we entertain."
"We're in a Bayonet Point ranch and wanted a kitchen that's easier to move around in. CMK lowered a section of counter, widened the walkways, and added better lighting throughout. Daily updates from the project manager, a clean job site every evening, and the schedule they promised is the schedule they kept."
Smart Questions for Your Port Richey Kitchen Remodel Estimate
Estimates are where good and bad contractors look the most alike. These are the questions that separate them, worth asking any Port Richey company before signing a contract, not just CMK.
-
Are you licensed and insured in Florida?
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. -
Do you pull all permits, or do I?
Why it matters: Homeowner-pulled permits make you personally liable for code compliance, not the contractor.
Good answer: The contractor pulls every City of Port Richey or Pasco County permit, handles HOA architectural-review paperwork where it applies, and schedules every inspection at no extra charge. -
Who manages my project day-to-day?
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. -
What's your warranty, and what does it cover?
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. -
Can I see your showroom and pick materials in person?
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. -
What's your project timeline, and how do you handle delays?
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.
