Kitchen & bath remodeling in Minneapolis–St. Paul
The rooms that earn their keep — and the ones that punish shortcuts. We build them right the first time, waterproofed and plumbed to last.
Kitchens and baths are where remodeling gets real: plumbing, electrical, tile, cabinetry, and waterproofing all meeting in a small space. Done well, they're the best money you'll spend on a house. Done fast and cheap, they're the first thing to fail.
Kitchens
A Trueline kitchen is planned to the inch before we lift a hammer. That means:
- Layout and function. Work triangle, landing space, storage, and how the room connects to the rest of the main floor.
- Cabinets and counters. Ordered and staged before demo, so the crew installs instead of waits.
- Plumbing and electrical. New runs and code-correct circuits while the walls are open — the right time to do it.
- Permits. We pull them. Moving plumbing, gas, or electrical in Minneapolis or St. Paul without a permit is how you fail an inspection at resale.
Baths
Bathrooms live or die on the wet work you can't see. We build showers and wet walls with a real waterproofing membrane and a sloped, tested pan — not backer board and caulk. We handle ventilation properly so a Minnesota bathroom doesn't grow mold over the winter, and we don't rush tile or cure times.
Selections happen before the job, not during
Every finish — cabinet, counter, tile, faucet, light — is chosen and priced during design. That's how the bid becomes a real, fixed number and how the crew stays on schedule instead of stalling on a decision. You'll never get a call asking you to pick a tile while three people stand around waiting.
Timelines & cost
Kitchens generally run $35k–$90k over 6–10 weeks; baths $18k–$45k over 3–5 weeks. Age of the home, moving plumbing, and finish level move the number most — see the 2026 cost guide for the full breakdown.
"We lived in the house through the whole remodel. Every day it was swept up before they left."

How long does a kitchen remodel take?
A full kitchen runs 6 to 10 weeks on site once materials are in hand. We order and stage cabinets and long-lead items before demo so the crew isn't waiting on backorders.
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
Most baths take 3 to 5 weeks. Tile, waterproofing, and cure times set the pace — we don't rush the wet work, because that's what fails first when it's rushed.
How do you keep water out of the walls?
We build showers and wet walls with a proper waterproofing membrane and sloped, tested pans — not just backer board and hope. It's the difference between a bath that lasts 20 years and one that leaks in three.
Do we pick finishes before or during the job?
Before. Every cabinet, counter, tile, and fixture is selected and priced during design, so the number is real and the crew never stalls waiting on a decision.
