Advance Remodeling is a licensed general contractor in Oklahoma City specializing in kitchen and bathroom renovations for homeowners, operating at the mid-range price tier with transparent, project-based estimates rather than hourly billing.
Advance Remodeling handles full kitchen remodels, bathroom updates, and partial renovations. The company is Oklahoma Construction Industries Board licensed and carries general liability insurance. Projects range from cabinet and countertop replacements to complete gut renovations involving plumbing, electrical, and structural work. The business focuses on residential work in Oklahoma City proper and immediate suburbs; it does not handle commercial projects or new construction.
Kitchen remodels start at $15,000 for a cabinet and countertop refresh and run $40,000 to $75,000 for a full layout change with new appliances and finishes. Bathroom renovations typically cost $8,000 to $25,000 depending on whether fixtures and tile remain or are replaced entirely. Pricing is project-based, meaning the company provides a fixed bid upfront rather than a contingency-plus-hourly model. Verify current pricing by phone; material costs fluctuate seasonally and by availability.
The company does not charge a design fee for estimates. Project timelines run 4 to 8 weeks for kitchen work and 2 to 4 weeks for bathroom jobs, depending on permit clearance and material lead times.
Most kitchen remodeling in Oklahoma City splits between volume builders charging $50,000+ for design-forward work and handyman-style contractors offering lower prices but less structural capability. Advance Remodeling positions itself between those extremes: fixed pricing eliminates bid surprises common with hourly contractors, but the company also handles plumbing and electrical changes that many handyman operations legally cannot perform without subcontracting. A contractor like Kitchen Tune-Up, which focuses on cabinet refacing rather than full remodels, suits homeowners with tight budgets and existing layouts; Advance Remodeling serves owners ready to reconfigure space or upgrade systems. For high-end custom cabinetry and architectural design, OKC-area kitchen specialists like those through the National Kitchen and Bath Association charge premium fees but deliver magazine-quality finishes; Advance Remodeling delivers solid, code-compliant work without that premium markup.
This contractor works well for homeowners planning to stay in their homes for 5+ years and seeking reliable, licensed work at a moderate cost. It suits projects involving permit-required electrical or plumbing changes because the company carries appropriate licenses and handles inspections directly. It does not suit homeowners with ultra-tight budgets (a $5,000 kitchen refresh requires a different vendor) or those wanting architectural showpiece design; those needs require either pure handyman services or higher-end design firms. Projects under $6,000 are typically declined.
Initial contact is usually by phone. The company schedules an on-site estimate, which takes 30 to 45 minutes. The estimator photographs the space, measures dimensions, and discusses material preferences and timeline. A written estimate arrives within 3 to 5 business days and includes a line-item breakdown of labor, materials, and permit fees. A 50% deposit reserves the project start date; the balance is due upon completion. The company does not require final payment until the homeowner signs off on all work and municipal inspections pass.
Advance Remodeling operates Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with Saturday availability by appointment. Crew arrival for active projects is typically 7 a.m. Parking during renovation is coordinated with the homeowner; most residential projects require street parking or driveway space. Permit applications and fees are handled by the company and included in the estimate; Oklahoma City permits for kitchen and bathroom work currently run 10 to 21 days for approval.
Advance Remodeling appears in the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board registry and maintains a public license history available through the state website.
