Innsbrook homes and this kind of project
Our first visit for a kitchen remodel in Innsbrook is spent on which walls bear load, where plumbing and ducts run and how much room the electrical panel has left, which tells us how A-frame chalets and newer lake homes were put together.
The housing stock here: a-frame chalets from the 1970s onward, newer custom lake homes and condominiums, nearly all on wooded lots.
In large homes the kitchen project often includes a scullery, professional appliances and make-up air for the hood.
What we find inside Innsbrook homes
Chalet renovations involve vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, loft stairs, compact kitchens and baths, and often under-insulated walls. We update for year-round comfort while keeping the character.
Kitchens in Innsbrook's estate homes are central to entertaining. Projects involve custom cabinetry, professional-style appliances with correctly sized ventilation and make-up air, sculleries or butler's pantries and stone selected slab by slab.
What is included
A full Innsbrook kitchen remodel with us includes design drawings, engineering if walls move, permits, demolition, framing, plumbing, gas, electrical, drywall, flooring, cabinet and countertop installation, tile, trim, paint and appliance hookup. You get a written schedule before we start.
We take on kitchen remodel work in and around lakefront chalets and homes throughout the Innsbrook resort.
What we watch for
In Innsbrook houses the wall between kitchen and dining room frequently carries second-floor joists or hides the main plumbing stack. We open a small inspection hole and check the basement framing below before we tell you what removing it will cost.
Site logistics matter: Innsbrook has steep, wooded lakefront sites with tight access, so we agree with you where carpenters, a plumber, an electrician, cabinet installers, a countertop fabricator and a tile setter will park, store material and carry out debris.
Permits and approvals in Innsbrook
For a kitchen remodel at a Innsbrook address, the paperwork goes to the Village of Innsbrook and Warren County. Expect rough framing, plumbing, gas, electrical and final inspections.
Being inside the house, this project is unlikely to need sign-off from the resort's architectural control committee, but we confirm any rules on containers and work hours.
Schedule and getting to you
On site, a kitchen remodel in Innsbrook generally runs six to ten weeks.
Innsbrook is west on I-70 to Wright City, then south, a little over twenty minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.
What our kitchen remodeling looks like
Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near Innsbrook; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.
What moves the price in Innsbrook
We price kitchen remodeling in Innsbrook from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.
- Countertop square footage, material and the number of cutouts and seams.
- Flooring, especially if hardwood in adjacent rooms needs to be laced in and refinished to match.

Our step-by-step method for this work, and the factors that move its price, are laid out on the main kitchen remodeling page. More about the area is on our Innsbrook page.
Kitchen Remodeling in Innsbrook: common questions
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Innsbrook?
Six to ten weeks of construction for a full remodel, after a design and ordering period that commonly runs six to ten weeks because of cabinet lead times. In Innsbrook, permit review by the Village of Innsbrook and Warren County and material lead times affect the start date more than our calendar does.
Who will be working in my Innsbrook home during a kitchen remodel?
Carpenters, a plumber, an electrician, cabinet installers, a countertop fabricator and a tile setter, scheduled and supervised by one Henry Hill project lead who is your single point of contact. Licensed trades are used wherever the Village of Innsbrook and Warren County requires them.
Can you remove the wall between my kitchen and dining room?
Almost always. The question is what it takes. A non-bearing wall is a small job. A bearing wall needs an engineered beam, temporary shoring and a permit. We determine which you have before pricing.
