Expert Kitchen Island Installation in Austin, TX

A kitchen island installation changes how your kitchen works every day. At CHS Construction and Remodeling, we handle the full scope: layout planning, structural prep, cabinetry, countertop setting, and finish work. We size each island to fit your floor plan without cutting into the clearance you need to move freely. Austin homes range from mid-century pier-and-beam builds to newer open-concept slab construction. Each type calls for a different approach to leveling, anchoring, and utility routing. We account for those differences before we start. Whether you want a simple prep island or one with seating and built-in storage, we design it around how your household actually uses the kitchen. Open-concept layouts are common in Austin, and a well-placed island pulls the cooking and gathering zones together. If you are ready to add function and value to your Austin kitchen, contact CHS Construction and Remodeling to schedule your on-site consultation.

Kitchen Island Installation FAQ

Common questions about kitchen island installation in Austin, TX.

Yes, we install kitchen islands in older Austin homes with closed or compact floor plans. We assess your existing layout, flooring type, and structural conditions before any work begins.

Not always. A basic prep island with no sink or built-in appliances typically does not require new plumbing or electrical runs. If your design calls for a sink or outlets at the island, we coordinate the trade work as part of the project.

The island must leave at least 42 inches of clearance on the working side and 36 inches on the pass-through side. We measure your kitchen and recommend a size that fits your space without blocking traffic.

Yes, seating can be built into the design with a counter overhang of at least 12 inches for knee clearance. We plan the overhang depth before the island is built so the finished result is comfortable and functional.

Our service covers layout planning, structural prep, cabinetry installation, countertop setting, and finish work. We manage the full scope so you work with one team from start to finish.

A well-designed kitchen island adds functional square footage and visual appeal, both of which support resale value in the Austin market. Kitchen upgrades consistently rank among the highest-ROI improvements for Austin homeowners.

Tony and his team have completed several residential projects for us – – Both indoor and outdoor, including kitchen remodel, deck design, a pergola, and deck railing and step replacement. All projects have been professionally executed, fairly priced and we would use CHS again without hesitation in the future.

Tony helped me renovate my garage into our daycare and I could not be happier with the outcome. I had a tight time line and him and his guys got it done quickly without cutting corners while being transparent with cost the whole way through!

We are currently using CHS to add new construction to our existing home. Tony’s bid was very cost competitive and our experience to date has been great!

Mike Thomas Google review · September 2025

We hired Tony and his team in 2019 to remodel our kitchen (new flooring, lighting, counters, appliances, cabinets) and were so happy with the experience and the work that we hired him again in 2022 to update our living area (new flooring, paint, and new tile around the fireplace). Now that we are ready to update/remodel our primary bathroom, we naturally turned once again to Tony and his team. Friendly, easy to work with, reasonably priced and great work. Looking forward to another beautiful finished project!

CHS remodeled our bathroom (March of 2026). The quality of the work was great and they completed everything in just a few days. They did exactly what we talked about - no surprises. Also, the team did not leave a big mess. I would definitely use CHS again.
