Lorrie joins about three out of four in-home consultations because the design conversation is where the real work starts.

Step 1 of 10

What is the approximate size of your kitchen?
Not sure of exact square footage? Think about how many people can comfortably stand and work at the same time.
📐 XL
Extra Large — Over 200 sq ft
A true chef's or entertainer's kitchen. Think large islands, multiple work zones, and ample storage on all sides.
✓
📐 L
Large — 150–200 sq ft
Plenty of counter space, room for an island, and comfortable movement for multiple cooks at once.
✓
📐 M
Medium — 100–150 sq ft
The most common kitchen size. Functional and efficient, with good potential to maximize every inch.
✓
📐 S
Small — Under 100 sq ft
Galley or condo-style kitchen. Smart design choices here can make a small space feel surprisingly open.
✓
?
I'm Not Sure
No problem — we'll use an average size to calculate your estimate. Our team can confirm during your in-home consultation.
✓
What level of remodel are you planning?
This single choice has the biggest impact on your total project cost.
🏆
Major Upscale Remodel
A blank canvas with no limitations. Custom cabinetry, luxury appliances, structural changes, premium finishes, and designer touches throughout.
✓
⭐
Mid-Range Remodel
New cabinets with soft-close doors and drawers, updated countertops, backsplash, sink and faucet. A complete, fresh look with quality materials.
✓
🔄
Minor Refresh
Update cabinet fronts, new countertops, backsplash, sink and faucet. Maximum visual impact without tearing out the bones of the kitchen.
✓
?
I'm Not Sure Yet
That's what we're here for. We'll use a mid-range baseline and refine it with you during your design consultation.
✓
What countertop material do you prefer?
Countertops are one of the most visible elements of your kitchen. Here's how the most popular options compare.
💎
Quartz
The most popular choice. Non-porous, low maintenance, consistent color and pattern, and extremely durable. Doesn't require sealing.
✓
🪨
Granite
Natural stone with unique veining in every slab. Heat resistant and timeless. Requires periodic sealing to maintain its finish.
✓
🏛️
Marble
The ultimate luxury statement. Iconic veining, unmatched elegance. More porous than quartz or granite — best for low-traffic prep areas.
✓
?
I'm Not Sure Yet
We'll walk you through samples and help you choose based on your lifestyle, budget, and design vision during your consultation.
✓
Would you like to add a kitchen island?
An island can be the most-used surface in your kitchen — and a major design anchor. Here's what each tier includes.
⭐
Custom Island
With sink, cooktop, or built-in appliances. Full custom design, waterfall edge options, specialty lighting, and premium storage features.
✓
🪑
Mid-Range Island
Semi-custom with seating overhang, quality countertop, and coordinated storage. Adds both function and gathering space to your kitchen.
✓
📦
Basic Island
Standard base cabinets with matching countertop. Adds extra prep space and storage without the premium price tag.
✓
🚫
No Island / I'm Not Sure
Not every kitchen has the square footage for an island — and that's perfectly fine. We'll explore the best layout for your space.
✓
Would you like to modify any walls?
Opening up a kitchen often creates the most dramatic transformation — but structural changes add complexity and cost.
🧱
Yes — Non-Load Bearing Wall(s)
Modify or remove walls that aren't structural. Less invasive, lower cost, but still requires careful planning for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC.
✓
🏗️
Yes — Load Bearing Wall(s)
Structural walls require an engineer's stamp, temporary shoring, and a beam installation. The result is an open, flowing floor plan that transforms the feel of the home.
✓
?
I'm Not Sure
We'll assess your existing layout during the consultation and let you know what's possible and what it would cost to open things up.
✓
✅
Keep Walls As They Are
Work within the existing footprint. Smart design can make a dramatic difference without touching a single wall.
✓
Do you plan on replacing your appliances?
Appliances can be the single biggest swing in your kitchen budget — from a few thousand to well over $30,000 depending on the brands you choose.
🏆
Yes — Higher End
Wolf, Sub-Zero, Viking, Miele, Thermador. We'll connect you directly with our appliance supplier so you get our pricing — no markup. Appliance costs are separate from this estimate.

✓
♻️

✓
?
I'm Not Sure Yet
Appliance decisions often come later in the design process. We'll plan the space for flexibility and revisit this together.

What Happens Next
Getting an estimate is easy. Getting the right plan is where most remodels fall apart.
Most homeowners start with numbers. Without a plan behind those numbers, projects drift, decisions get rushed, and the finished kitchen ends up close to what someone wanted but never quite right.
That’s the gap we step into.
Here’s how we make sure your project starts the right way:
1
We walk through your estimate and your vision
We sit down with you in person or by phone to talk through what you selected and the picture you have in your head of how this kitchen should look and function when it’s done. That’s where we make sure everything actually lines up.
2
We align your goals with your investment
We talk through the choices that drive the overall investment and how each one connects to what you’re trying to accomplish. You walk out with a clear understanding of what matters most and how to approach it.
3
You walk away with clarity on your next step
Whether you decide to move forward with us or take time to think things through, you’ll know what it takes to get the result you want and how to get there.
Every Hochuli project is fixed price, fixed contract, with everything in writing before a nail is driven. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before construction starts.
If you want to get this right the first time, this is your next step.
