PGT Kitchen Remodeling: The Jacksonville Owner’s Guide
If you’re researching PGT kitchen remodeling in Jacksonville, the installed price for a full kitchen remodel through Bradford Remodeling Co Jacksonville runs $14,000 to $45,000 depending on the size of the kitchen, cabinet line, countertop material, and whether walls or plumbing move. We stock and install PGT-compatible components and work with the documented brand set behind every Bradford project, so the parts and the labor carry a paper trail. Most Jacksonville homeowners find this page because something has already failed: a cabinet face has delaminated from humidity, a countertop seam has opened up, or the kitchen layout that came with the house simply stopped working for the way they live.
What you want is a straight number and a clear scope before anyone swings a hammer. That’s what this page is for.

Which PGT Models This Applies To
PGT is a Florida company, and their products are built around impact resistance and humidity tolerance. In a kitchen context, that most often means PGT windows and sliding glass doors that frame the room, plus the cabinet and surface systems that have to hold up against the same coastal climate. The compatibility question matters if you’re replacing a window over the sink, reworking a pass-through to the patio, or rebuilding cabinetry that butts against a PGT door frame.
Here’s the gotcha most Jacksonville homeowners don’t see coming: PGT window and door frames are engineered to tighter tolerances than standard builder-grade openings. If you’re redoing the kitchen and want to keep those PGT frames, the rough opening has to be preserved exactly as it sits. Any carpenter who tells you they’ll “just shim it out” is about to void the performance rating on that window. We measure the opening, document it, and build the cabinet or counter run to the frame, not the other way around.
On the materials side, we don’t install generic cabinet boxes and call it a kitchen remodel. The Bradford documented brand set includes KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone surfaces, and Kohler and Moen fixtures. Those are the names on the spec sheet you sign before work begins. If a cabinet box or a countertop seam fails inside the first year, the manufacturer’s warranty and our 365-Day Done Right Promise both apply, and that’s in writing.
Signs Your PGT Kitchen Remodeling Is Failing
- Cabinet doors swelling or sticking in August. Jacksonville’s summer humidity sits above 80 percent for months. Cheap MDF or unsealed edges absorb that moisture like a sponge. The doors won’t close square, and the hinges start pulling out of the box. Once that happens, the cabinet carcass is compromised, not just the door.
- Countertop seams opening up. If you can catch a fingernail on a seam that used to be flush, the substrate underneath has moved. In Jacksonville homes with slab foundations, this is usually minor settling. But it can also mean the original installer didn’t account for expansion and contraction between the countertop material and the cabinet run.
- Caulk lines along the backsplash cracking or peeling. That joint is a water barrier as much as it is a finish detail. Once it splits, every splash from the sink starts working its way into the drywall behind the tile. Left alone, that becomes mold, and a $200 recaulk becomes a $2,000 substrate repair.
- Soft spots in the floor near the dishwasher or sink. This is the one we tell Jacksonville homeowners not to ignore. A small leak under the dishwasher or at the water supply line wicks into subfloor over months. The tile or vinyl hides it until the floor deflects underfoot. By then, the subfloor needs replacement, not just the finish flooring.
- Drawer slides grinding or dropping hard. The cheap side-mount slides that come with builder cabinets wear out fast under daily use. When a drawer starts dropping a half inch at full extension, the slide is done. Replacing the slides is straightforward. Replacing a drawer box that’s been wrenched loose from the face is not.

AfterReplacement Cost & What’s Included
For a PGT kitchen remodeling project in Jacksonville, expect to pay within these ranges:
- Full kitchen remodel: $14,000 – $45,000
- Small kitchen remodel: $9,000 – $20,000
- Cabinet installation: $4,000 – $13,000
- Countertop installation: $2,000 – $6,500
- Backsplash installation: $800 – $2,500
- Kitchen island installation: $3,000 – $10,000
What moves the number is the size of the room, whether you’re moving plumbing or electrical rough-ins, the cabinet line you choose, and the countertop material. Cambria and Silestone run higher than laminate. KraftMaid semi-custom runs higher than stock boxes. The number on your written estimate is the number you pay. No change orders at the door, no “we didn’t know the wall was load-bearing” surprises at closeout. Curtis Lane and his crew scope it before the first nail goes in.
Every estimate includes the full parts list, labor, disposal, and the signed written guarantee. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s non-negotiable.
DIY or Call Us?

Here’s the honest split. You can check the simple things: run the water, look under the sink with a flashlight for staining or drips, test every drawer and door for square. You can clean your cabinet edges and watch for swelling. That’s routine maintenance, and you should do it.
What you shouldn’t do is pull cabinets, move supply lines, or touch anything structural. Kitchen remodeling involves plumbing rough-ins, electrical circuits, and load-bearing considerations you can’t see until walls come open. The cost of undoing a bad DIY cabinet install or a misrouted drain line almost always exceeds the cost of doing the job right the first time. Scope it right the first time, the job goes a lot smoother when nobody’s surprised.

FAQs
A properly installed kitchen remodel in Jacksonville using documented brands like KraftMaid, Cambria, and Silestone should hold up for 20 years or more with routine maintenance. The failure we see most often is humidity damage to cheap materials, which is why we don’t install cabinet boxes or countertop substrates that can’t handle the local climate. Our work is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise for the first year, and materials carry manufacturer warranties beyond that. Call (904) 337-5929 for exact material warranty terms on your project.
Yes, in many cases. A single cabinet face, a section of backsplash, or a failing countertop seam can be repaired or replaced without touching the rest of the kitchen. The deciding factor is whether the substrate behind the failing part is intact. If it is, we repair. If it isn’t, we replace the affected section. The written estimate will show you exactly what’s being done either way. Call (904) 337-5929 and we’ll assess it on site at no charge.
A full kitchen remodel typically takes 6 to 10 weeks depending on the scope. Cabinet replacement alone can be done in 2 to 3 weeks. Countertop installation takes 1 to 2 weeks including template and fabrication. The written scope we give you includes a schedule, and the finish date is stated before we start. Call (904) 337-5929 to get a timeline for your specific kitchen.
We stock the common PGT-compatible kitchen parts that fail most often in Jacksonville homes, including drawer slides, hinges, door hardware, and cabinet box components. For full cabinet, countertop, or window replacement, we order the exact spec from the manufacturer and schedule installation around the lead time. Your written estimate includes the full parts list, so you know exactly what’s being ordered and what it costs. Call (904) 337-5929 with your model information and we’ll verify availability the same day.
