Kitchen Remodelers in Springfield, IL

Kitchen remodelers in Springfield range from design-build firms to cabinet shops and countertop fabricators. The page carries 9 businesses: 8 with Sangamon County addresses and 1 in Menard County. Springfield has about 113,330 residents, and 3 of the businesses are based in the smaller towns of Rochester, Petersburg and Glenarm.

Springfield's older houses are a big part of what these firms work on. Half of the city's housing units were built in or before 1972, and most of the rest went up before 1980. Under the EPA's lead-safe renovation rule, a paid contractor working in a home built before 1978 must be certified, with employees trained in lead-safe practices, whenever the job disturbs painted surfaces. Tearing out old cabinets and trim disturbs paint, so ask any remodeler about certification before demolition starts.
