Most Brick kitchens land in the $25,000–$90,000 range. Cosmetic refreshes — new cabinet doors, counters, a tile backsplash — sit toward the bottom. Full gut jobs that reroute plumbing and upgrade the electrical panel sit toward the top, especially on split-levels and capes around Herbertsville and Laurelton with original 1950s–70s layouts. We’re a licensed, family-run general contractor (NJ HIC #13VH13814500), and every quote is free and itemized — call 848-633-6440.
What actually drives the price up (or down)
Layout changes. Moving a sink or range means moving plumbing and gas lines — that’s the single biggest cost swing in any Brick remodel.
Cabinet grade. Stock, semi-custom, and full-custom cabinetry can each add or save five figures on the same footprint.
Waterfront considerations. Homes in Shore Acres, Baywood, and along the lagoons sometimes need moisture-resistant lower cabinets and flooring given the humidity coming off the water.
Age of the house. Greenbriar 55+ ranches and original Laurelton capes often have knob-and-tube remnants or undersized panels that need updating before new appliances go in — we catch this during the walkthrough, not mid-demo.
Who pulls the permits, and how long does a remodel take?
We pull the permits from Brick Township’s building department ourselves — plumbing, electrical, and structural work get filed under our license, and we schedule inspections so they don’t stall your job. A cosmetic refresh can wrap in two to three weeks; a full layout change with new plumbing and custom cabinets typically runs six to ten weeks. We give you a written schedule up front so you know what week the sink is disconnected and back.
One general contractor, start to finish
Whether you’re updating a Lake Riviera colonial or opening up the kitchen in a Greenbriar ranch for easier day-to-day living, Paragon Exteriors manages the whole job — demo, plumbing, electrical, cabinets, counters, and the permit paperwork — under one roof. See the full kitchen remodeling process, browse everything we do locally on the Brick service area page, or check out bathroom remodeling in Brick if that’s on your list too. We’re family-run and local, and we’d rather give you an honest number than a lowball that grows once the walls are open.

Most Brick kitchen remodels run $25,000–$90,000. A refresh with new cabinets, counters, and a backsplash on the low end; a full layout change with moved plumbing, upgraded electrical, and custom cabinetry on the high end. Lagoon-front homes in Shore Acres and Baywood sometimes add cost for elevated framing or moisture-resistant materials. We give you one itemized number after seeing the space, not a phone-quote guess.
Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in Brick Township?
Yes, if you're moving plumbing or gas lines, adding circuits, or changing structural walls — which most full remodels do. We pull the permits from Brick Township as part of the job and schedule inspections around your timeline, so you're not the one standing in line at the building department.
Can you keep my kitchen usable during the remodel?
We phase demo and rough-in so you're not without a sink or stove for the whole job when possible, and we always give you a written schedule before day one. Homes on tighter lagoon lots in Midstreams or Breton Woods sometimes need a full shutdown for a few days during plumbing rough-in — we tell you exactly when and for how long, in advance.
Will you handle the electrical and plumbing, or do I need separate contractors?
One GC handles all of it. Our licensed electrical and plumbing partners work under our permit and our schedule, so you're not coordinating three separate companies and three separate timelines. That's the biggest reason Brick homeowners hire us over a cabinet-only shop: nobody else on the crew list to chase down.
