Opening a wall
in a Long Beach

Interior work is where the age of the housing stock stops being trivia and starts being budget. Plaster, old service and cast-iron waste lines are all normal here, and all cost money to do properly.
- What is behind your walls
1920s bungalows and Spanish-style houses, mid-century apartment buildings, and a large number of houses raised or rebuilt after 2012.

Long Beach is a city with its own building department and its own flood-zone administration. Coastal construction review here is the strictest in Nassau, for good reason.

What is behind the walls in a Long Beach house?
1920s bungalows and Spanish-style houses, mid-century apartment buildings, and a large number of houses raised or rebuilt after 2012. Mechanicals go up, materials are chosen to survive water, and nothing important gets built below the flood elevation.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Long Beach?
If you are moving plumbing, altering electrical or taking out a wall, yes — filed with City of Long Beach Building Department. Long Beach is a city with its own building department and its own flood-zone administration. Coastal construction review here is the strictest in Nassau, for good reason.
How long will my kitchen be out of action?
A full gut typically runs eight to twelve weeks on site. The schedule is usually set by cabinetry lead time rather than labour, which is why we order early and set up a temporary kitchen before demolition starts.
Will the electrical service need upgrading?
Often, in older Long Beach housing stock. A modern kitchen adds significant load, and where the existing panel cannot carry it we price the upgrade in the original estimate rather than raising it as a change order.
Do you do the millwork and tile too?
Yes, with our own finish carpenters. The crew that frames the opening is the crew that hangs the trim, which is why the reveals line up.
