City Tile & Cabinets Is Your Local Kitchen Remodeling Contractor.

Full Service Kitchen Renovation for Homeowners and Contractors in Orange County

Kitchen remodeling projects range from replacing individual surfaces to full renovations that reconfigure the layout and update all major systems. The materials chosen for countertops, cabinets, backsplash, and flooring work together to define both the function and the appearance of the finished kitchen. City Tile & Cabinets has been serving homeowners and contractors in Anaheim and Orange County since 1998. Our Anaheim showroom carries materials across all categories so you can see everything in one place before making decisions.

Every material for your kitchen remodel is available to see in person at our Anaheim tile showroom on State College Boulevard before anything gets ordered or installed.

Defining the Scope

The scope of a kitchen remodel has a significant impact on cost, timeline, and material selection. Projects that retain the existing cabinet layout and plumbing locations are less complex than those requiring new configurations. Surface level updates such as countertop replacement, backsplash installation, and new flooring can meaningfully change the appearance of a kitchen without a full renovation. Full remodels that include new cabinets, updated plumbing, and electrical work require more detailed planning and coordination between trades. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the kitchen accounts for a significant portion of a home’s energy consumption, and remodeling presents an opportunity to improve both the efficiency and functionality of the space.

Countertops and Backsplash

Kitchen countertop material is one of the most used surfaces in a kitchen and should be selected based on both durability and design preferences. Quartz is engineered for consistency and requires no sealing, making it a low maintenance option in a wide range of colors. Natural stone such as granite and quartzite have unique surface variation and require periodic sealing. According to the NKBA, investing in quality countertops typically returns significant value when it comes time to sell. Porcelain slab countertops are gaining popularity for their resistance to heat, staining, and UV exposure. Backsplash tile connects the countertop and cabinet finishes visually and is one of the more flexible design decisions in a kitchen remodel. Our team has installed countertops and backsplash tile across hundreds of kitchens throughout Anaheim and Orange County and can walk you through what works in your specific space.

Cabinet selection plays an equally important role in defining your kitchen’s character and functionality. We stock both stock and custom cabinetry options, with finishes ranging from classic wood tones to contemporary painted surfaces. Our cabinet installation specialists in Anaheim handle everything from removal of old units to precise mounting and hardware placement, ensuring smooth operation of drawers and doors. 

Flooring in the Kitchen

Kitchen flooring needs to handle daily spills, foot traffic, dropped items, and prolonged standing. Porcelain and ceramic tile remain the most durable and easy to maintain option for kitchen floors. Wood and wood look flooring installation adds warmth to the space and works well when the kitchen connects to adjacent living areas where continuity of flooring material matters. The HGTV flooring guide offers a useful comparison of kitchen flooring materials if you are still weighing options. Flooring should be selected alongside cabinets and countertops to ensure the finished kitchen reads as a cohesive space.

One of the advantages of working with a full-service provider in Anaheim is the convenience of coordinating multiple trades through a single point of contact. Our in-house installation team communicates directly with our sales and design staff, which streamlines scheduling and reduces the risk of miscommunication.

What Anaheim Homeowners Should Know Before Starting a Kitchen Remodel

A kitchen remodel is one of the largest investments a homeowner makes and one of the most disruptive projects to live through. Getting the planning right before work begins saves time, money, and frustration. Here is what matters most before the first cabinet comes down:

Define the scope before selecting materials. The biggest source of cost overruns in kitchen remodeling is scope creep, adding work mid-project that was not accounted for in the original budget. Deciding upfront whether you are doing a surface level refresh or a full reconfiguration determines every other decision that follows.

Plumbing and electrical locations drive cost. Projects that keep the sink, dishwasher, and range in their existing locations are significantly less expensive than those that move them. If your layout works functionally, keeping plumbing in place and focusing the budget on countertops, cabinets, and flooring delivers the most visible results for the investment.

Material sequencing matters. Cabinets go in before countertops are templated. Countertops are templated before backsplash tile is set. Flooring installation timing depends on whether you are running it under the toe kicks or stopping at them. Our in-house team coordinates all of these sequences internally so nothing has to wait on a subcontractor who is not communicating with the rest of the crew.

Lead times vary significantly by material. Stock cabinets are available quickly. Custom cabinets can run four to eight weeks. Natural stone slabs need to be selected and reserved before fabrication is scheduled. Starting material selection early in the planning process prevents the most common cause of project delays on active kitchen remodels.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Housing Survey, kitchen remodeling is consistently the most undertaken home improvement project in the United States and ranks among the highest in return on investment, particularly in high-value real estate markets like Orange County.

Recent Kitchen Remodeling Projects in Anaheim and Orange County

The best way to understand what a kitchen remodel involves is to see how real projects come together. Every kitchen we remodel is different, but the decisions that determine a project’s success are consistent: proper material sequencing, coordinated finishes, and an installation team that does not hand the job off to someone else midway through.

Full Kitchen Renovation — Anaheim A homeowner on a tight timeline wanted a complete kitchen transformation without relocating any plumbing. We kept the sink, dishwasher, and range in their existing positions and focused the budget on all-new flat panel cabinetry in a warm white finish, a quartz countertop with a waterfall edge on the island, and large format porcelain tile flooring in a warm beige tone that carried through to the adjacent dining area. Because the plumbing footprint stayed the same, demolition and installation ran on a 12-day schedule from first demo day to final walkthrough.

Kitchen and Dining Tile Refresh — Orange County A partial remodel focused entirely on surfaces: new backsplash tile, countertop replacement, and flooring update without touching cabinets or appliances. The client wanted to keep the existing cabinetry but felt the kitchen needed to feel like a different room. We matched a natural stone-look porcelain tile on the floor with a handmade ceramic backsplash in a complementary warm tone, then templated and installed a quartzite countertop over the existing cabinet boxes. Total project took eight days. The result reads as a full kitchen renovation even though the bones of the kitchen did not change.

Cabinet and Countertop Update — Garden Grove An older kitchen with dated laminate countertops and worn cabinet faces. Rather than a full replacement, we refaced the existing cabinet boxes with new shaker-style door fronts in a painted soft gray finish, then fabricated and installed new granite countertops with an undermount sink. New hardware in a brushed nickel finish tied the updated cabinets and countertops together. For a homeowner who wanted a significant change at a fraction of the full remodel cost, this approach delivered.

Every project starts with an in-showroom consultation at our Anaheim location. We walk through material options together, look at how finishes coordinate, and confirm the installation sequence before anything is ordered.

 

Kitchen Remodeling in Anaheim, CA

Most full kitchen remodels take four to eight weeks from demolition to completion, depending on the scope of the project. Surface level updates like new countertops and backsplash can be done in one to two weeks. Full remodels that involve moving plumbing, electrical, or re-configuring the layout take longer. We provide a realistic timeline during the planning phase so you know what to expect before work begins.
Kitchen remodel costs vary widely based on scope, materials, and whether the layout changes. A surface level refresh with new countertops, backsplash, and hardware costs far less than a full remodel with new cabinets, flooring, and relocated plumbing. The biggest cost drivers are cabinets, countertops, and any work that requires moving plumbing or electrical. We provide detailed quotes so you can see exactly where the budget goes before committing.
Yes, most homeowners stay in their home during a kitchen remodel. The kitchen itself will be out of use for the duration of the project, so many people set up a temporary kitchen space with a microwave, refrigerator, and small appliances in another room. We work efficiently to minimize the time your kitchen is unusable and keep the work area contained.
We handle the removal and disconnection of existing cabinets and fixtures as part of the demolition phase. For appliances you plan to keep, we coordinate the disconnection and reconnection timing. If you are purchasing new appliances, we recommend having them on site before installation so the countertops and cabinets can be fitted to the exact appliance dimensions.
It depends on the condition and layout of your existing cabinets. If the cabinet boxes are structurally sound and the layout works for you, refacing can update the look at a lower cost. If the layout needs to change, the boxes are damaged, or you want different storage configurations, full replacement is the better investment. We can assess your existing cabinets and give you a straightforward recommendation.
We recommend starting the planning and material selection process several weeks before you want work to begin. Custom cabinets can take four to eight weeks to arrive, and natural stone slabs need to be selected and reserved before fabrication is scheduled. Starting early prevents the most common cause of project delays, which is waiting on materials.
Yes. City Tile & Cabinets supplies the materials and handles the installation with our own in-house team. We do not subcontract the work out. This means the same team that helps you select cabinets, countertops, tile, and flooring in our showroom also coordinates and completes the installation, which keeps quality consistent and communication direct.
We serve homeowners and contractors throughout Anaheim and Orange County, including Fullerton, Orange, Garden Grove, Placentia, Yorba Linda, Santa Ana, Brea, Irvine, and Huntington Beach. Our showroom is located at 1535 S State College Blvd in Anaheim, one mile from Angel Stadium.
