Kitchen Remodeling in Medina, OH
Your family has grown, but your Medina kitchen hasn't. Older homes near the Square often have small kitchens at the back of the house, with plaster walls, older wiring, and floors that aren't quite level. Homes built in the 1990s and 2000s in the townships have more space, but many still have the original builder cabinets and an island that's the wrong size for the room.
You're in the right place. Moffie Build Group remodels Medina kitchens to fix the layout, add real storage, and hold up to daily family use, with finishes that suit the age of your house.
Kitchen Remodeling Services in Medina, OH
Removing or widening the wall between the kitchen and the family or dining room, with an engineered beam when the wall is load-bearing, so the cook is part of the room again.
When the layout works, we replace cabinets, counters, backsplash, lighting, and flooring without moving walls or plumbing, which keeps cost and schedule down.
Islands with room for prep, homework, and seating, with enough clearance to open the dishwasher and walk behind a seated guest. Where an island won't fit, a peninsula often works better.
Tall pantry cabinets, deep drawers for pots, pull-outs for trash and spices, and a home for the small appliances that crowd the counter today.
Design Notes for Medina Kitchens
Expect plaster walls, older wiring, and floors that aren't level. We open walls carefully and plan for what's behind them before we quote.
Many owners of older Medina homes want a kitchen that feels updated but still fits the house. We choose cabinet styles, trim, and tile that suit its age and character.
The layout is often fine. The fix is usually a better-sized island, cabinets that run to the ceiling, and counters and lighting that finally feel like yours.
Northeast Ohio winters are dark. We plan recessed, under-cabinet, and pendant lighting, and add circuits where new appliances need them.
Planning Notes for Medina Kitchens
Pick Appliances Early
Range and fridge sizes set the cabinet layout, so we settle them before cabinets are ordered.
Footprint vs. Layout Changes
We'll show you options that keep the current layout and options that move walls or plumbing, with clear cost and schedule differences for each.
Venting Done Right
We vent range hoods outside, which matters more as you add a bigger range or cook more often.
Plan a Temporary Kitchen
Most families stay home during the remodel. We'll help you set up a fridge, microwave, and coffee station somewhere else in the house.
Historic District Homes
Kitchen remodels are interior work, so they don't need historic review. If your project also changes exterior windows or doors on a home in the historic district, we plan time for a Certificate of Appropriateness.

We finalize the layout and help you choose cabinets, counters, tile, lighting, and appliances, or work with your designer.

We protect your floors, clean up daily, send weekly updates, and finish with a walkthrough and punch list.

Medina Kitchen Remodeling FAQs
My house is in Medina's historic district. Does a kitchen remodel need historic review?
Not for interior work. Historic review only applies to exterior changes, such as new windows or doors. We'll tell you up front if your project needs it.
Can you open my kitchen to the family room?
Usually, yes. We check the framing, bring in an engineer when a beam is needed, and handle the permits.
Can you work with older plumbing and electrical?
Yes, safely. We assess existing systems and outline any upgrades needed for new appliances, lighting, and outlets before we quote.
How long does a Medina kitchen remodel usually take?
Most full kitchen remodels take about 8–14 weeks of construction once materials arrive, depending on complexity and lead times.
Do we need to move out during the project?
No. Most families stay. We'll help you plan a temporary kitchen and keep dust contained to the work area.
Can you match the style of an older home?
Yes. We choose cabinet styles, trim, and finishes that suit the age and character of the house, or work with your designer.
