"Full remodel of our Kingsway kitchen. CMK handled the Hillsborough County permit, kept the job site spotless, and finished on the day they promised. They opened up the wall between the kitchen and the family room and the whole home feels twice as big now."
Designed Around the Way Seffner Families Live
In Seffner, the kitchen is where everyone in the family lands, but most of these established homes still have the layout and finishes they were built with decades ago. Closed-off galley kitchens behind walls, original builder-grade cabinets and laminate or basic-stone counters, and floor plans that wall the cook off from the family and dining rooms. The single-family homes on large lots in Kingsway and Lakewood Ridge, the families around Williams Park and Parsons Avenue, and the older ranch and acreage homes toward Mango and Dover all share that same dated starting point.
CMK Construction has been remodeling Seffner kitchens for over two decades. We know how to open up an established east-county floor plan, where the load-bearing walls run, how to trade builder-grade finishes for high-end custom cabinetry and quartz, how to handle slab plumbing reroutes in older homes, and how to clear any HOA approval and a Hillsborough County permit without you lifting a finger. Open-concept conversions are the project we are asked for most, and we have done hundreds of them.

Built for Seffner Homes, Not Generic Remodels.
A kitchen in a 1990s Kingsway home is a different job than a kitchen in an older Williams Park ranch or a large-lot acreage home out toward Mango and Dover. Many of these established homes came with builder-grade cabinets, laminate or basic-stone counters, and closed-off floor plans; the older ones bring dated, compartmentalized galley kitchens and original slab plumbing.
The layouts share one problem: they wall the kitchen off from the rest of the home. Builder-grade galley kitchens behind a half-wall. Cooks cut off from the family room. Thin stock cabinets and no real island. None of it matches how people in Seffner actually live now, which is casually, with the whole family in one open space, and usually with company.
We've solved every one of these, hundreds of times. Load-bearing walls removed with engineered beams and Hillsborough County permits. Slab plumbing reroutes handled in older east-county homes. HOA approvals handled for you whenever the work touches the exterior. Builder-grade finishes traded for high-end custom cabinetry and quartz. That's what two decades of Tampa Bay kitchens teaches you.

400+ Verified Reviews. 4.8 Stars.
Real reviews from Seffner kitchen remodel clients across Kingsway, Lakewood Ridge, Hillside, Williams Park, Parsons, and Lake Weeks.
"Our Lakewood Ridge home still had the original closed-off kitchen from the 1980s. CMK removed the wall to the family room with an engineered beam, added a quartz island, and our project manager Barry walked us through every step. As a busy family we appreciated how clean they kept everything."
"We replaced the dated original kitchen in our Hillside 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 home sits on a large lot near Williams Park and we wanted a kitchen worthy of it. CMK reconfigured the whole galley layout, added a big window over the sink, and chose finishes that feel high-end without being flashy. Several neighbors have already asked who did the work."
"Established home off Parsons Avenue, complete kitchen remodel. CMK steered us away from the dated finishes the house came with and toward high-end materials that will last. The quartz island and new open layout completely changed how we entertain."
"Open-concept conversion in our Lake Weeks 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."
Smart Questions for Your Seffner Kitchen Remodel Estimate
Estimates are where good and bad contractors look the most alike. These are the questions that separate them, worth asking any Seffner 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 Hillsborough County permit, handles HOA 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.
