ARE | Issaquah's Kitchen Remodeling Experts
American Remodeling Experts is Issaquah’s go-to kitchen remodeling company. Founded by Amir and Limor Chetrit, who own their home and raise their children right here in Issaquah, we bring a personal commitment to every kitchen we transform.
Amir has designed and redesigned hundreds of kitchens since 2017 — and his passion for kitchen design goes far beyond the job. At home, Amir is an avid cook who spends hours in his own kitchen preparing multicultural dishes, experimenting with spices, baking, and cooking for his family and loved ones. He understands firsthand what makes a kitchen truly functional: the right layout, the ideal appliance placement, the workflow between prep and cooking areas, and the finishing details that make a space both beautiful and practical.
That personal experience shapes every kitchen he designs. Amir works directly with local designers and local vendors to source the best materials at the best prices, and he is known for his love of opening walls and expanding kitchen footprints to create the open, airy spaces that modern homeowners love. If your kitchen feels too small or too closed off, Amir’s first instinct is always to explore what walls can come down.
Since 2017, we have completed kitchen remodels across every Issaquah neighborhood, from Issaquah Highlands to Olde Town. We understand what local homeowners want: beautiful design, quality materials, transparent pricing, and a stress-free experience.
Your kitchen is the heart of your home. We treat it that way.
Issaquah homeowners are investing in kitchen remodels at a higher rate than ever. The most common motivations we see include:
Homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s with outdated layouts and finishes that no longer reflect modern design preferences
Closed floor plans that homeowners want to open up for better flow and natural light
Growing families that need more functional kitchen space
Pre-sale renovations to maximize resale value in one of King County’s strongest real estate markets
Simply wanting a kitchen that matches the quality of the rest of their home
We complete kitchen remodels throughout Issaquah including Issaquah Highlands, Mirrormont, Central Issaquah, Issaquah Valley, Montreux, Newport, North Issaquah, Olde Town, Providence Point, South Lake Sammamish, and Squak Mountain.
Our kitchen remodels in Issaquah are fully managed from start to finish. Here is what we handle:
Design and Planning: we work with you to create a design that fits your lifestyle, your budget, and your home’s character. Amir designs every kitchen personally, using 3D renderings so you can see your new kitchen before a single cabinet is installed.
Permitting: we handle all King County permit applications on your behalf. Our team has strong relationships with local inspectors and knows how to get permits approved efficiently.
Cabinetry: custom and semi-custom cabinet options in a range of styles and finishes sourced from local vendors for the best quality at the best price.
Countertops: quartz, granite, marble, and more. We help you select the right material for your lifestyle and budget.
Flooring: tile, hardwood, luxury vinyl, and more.
Appliances: we coordinate appliance delivery and installation as part of your project.
Lighting: recessed lighting, under-cabinet lighting, pendant fixtures, and more.
Backsplash: tile, glass, stone, and custom options.
Wall Removal and Kitchen Expansion: Amir loves to open walls and increase kitchen square footage. If your kitchen feels too small, we will explore every option to expand it.
Final Walkthrough: we do not consider a project complete until you are 100% satisfied.
Most kitchen remodels in Issaquah range from $65,000 to $125,000 depending on size, materials, and scope. Here is a general breakdown:
Entry-level remodel ($65,000 to $80,000): new cabinets, countertops, appliances, and flooring in an existing layout with minimal structural changes.
Mid-range remodel ($80,000 to $100,000): layout modifications, higher-end finishes, custom cabinetry, and upgraded appliances.
High-end remodel ($100,000 to $125,000+): full open-concept transformation, premium materials throughout, custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and custom lighting.
All of our projects are priced transparently with no hidden fees. You will know exactly what you are paying for before any work begins.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Issaquah? Most kitchen remodels take 6 to 12 weeks from start to finish, including design, permitting, and construction. We provide a detailed project timeline before any work begins and keep you updated at every stage.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Issaquah? Most kitchen remodels that involve moving walls, electrical, or plumbing require a King County permit. Cosmetic updates like new cabinets and countertops in existing locations typically do not. We advise you on exactly what is required for your specific project and handle all permitting on your behalf.
Can I stay in my home during a kitchen remodel? In most cases yes. We set up a temporary alternative kitchen space so your family can continue meal prep, cooking, and daily routines with minimal disruption. We know life does not stop for a remodel and we plan around your family’s schedule from day one. We also take careful measures to contain dust and protect the rest of your home throughout construction.
Do you provide 3D renderings before starting? Yes. Every kitchen remodel includes 3D design renderings so you can visualize your new space before construction begins. Amir designs every kitchen personally and we do not start building until you love the design.
Do you work with local vendors and designers? Yes. Amir works with trusted local designers and local vendors to source the best materials at the best prices. This means better quality, faster delivery, and savings we pass on to you.
