At LPS, we help Huntington homeowners redesign kitchens around the way their homes are built and the way their families use them today. That may mean opening a kitchen to an adjoining dining room, improving storage in a smaller Huntington Village home, creating room for a larger island, or updating an older layout without losing the character of the house.
Homes throughout Huntington, Greenlawn, Centerport and the surrounding North Shore communities vary considerably in age, layout and architectural style. Older colonials, capes and ranches often present very different remodeling decisions than newer homes, particularly when walls, plumbing locations, flooring transitions and existing cabinetry affect the new layout.
Our team handles the kitchen remodeling process from design and material selection through construction, helping homeowners create kitchens that feel like a natural part of the home rather than an addition that was designed in isolation.
Design Expertise: Every project starts with a one-on-one design consultation to understand your goals, preferences, and layout challenges.
Craftsmanship You Can See: We use high-quality materials and skilled tradespeople for cabinetry, countertops, flooring, and finishes.
One Team from Start to Finish: From design and permits to demolition and final walk-through, we manage everything in-house.
Local Knowledge: We know the permitting process, housing styles, and renovation trends specific to Huntington and surrounding areas.
That local experience helps when planning kitchens in older Huntington homes, where wall placement, ceiling height, storage limitations, and adjoining dining spaces can all affect the final layout.
One nearby Centerport project involved remodeling a 1,200-square-foot kitchen and first floor to create a brighter, more open layout for entertaining. The existing space included a 16-foot wall separating the kitchen and living area, several different flooring heights, limited natural light and minimal pantry storage. LPS redesigned the layout, addressed the structural challenges and created better flow between the kitchen and adjoining spaces.
A well-planned kitchen remodel can improve both the look and function of your home. Popular updates include:
Can you remodel kitchens in smaller Huntington Village homes?
Yes. Many homes in and around Huntington Village have compact kitchens. We specialize in maximizing every inch of space with custom cabinetry, built-in storage, and smart layout adjustments that make smaller kitchens feel open and functional.
How do you help homeowners choose materials and finishes?
Our designers walk you through cabinetry, countertop, tile, and fixture options at our design center. We provide samples, digital renderings, and expert guidance so you can feel confident in every decision.
What if I want to open up my kitchen to the dining room?
We specialize in layout transformations, including removing non-load-bearing or load-bearing walls, to create open, flowing spaces that connect your kitchen with adjoining rooms.
How do you know if there is enough room to add a kitchen island? A kitchen island needs enough surrounding clearance for cabinets, appliances, seating and comfortable movement through the room.
During the design process, the existing kitchen dimensions and traffic flow should be evaluated before deciding on the size and placement of an island. In some Huntington homes, a smaller island or peninsula may provide better function than trying to fit an oversized island into the space.
Can an older Huntington kitchen be remodeled without changing the character of the home? Yes. An older kitchen can be modernized while still preserving architectural details and design elements that fit the style of the home.
The key is choosing a layout, cabinetry, finishes and materials that improve function without making the new kitchen feel disconnected from the rest of the house. This can be especially important in older Huntington homes where original trim, flooring, room proportions or adjoining spaces contribute to the home’s character.
What should be evaluated before removing a wall during a Huntington kitchen remodel?Before removing a wall, it is important to determine whether it is load-bearing and whether plumbing, electrical wiring or HVAC components run through it.
A professional evaluation helps determine what changes are possible and whether structural support or utility relocation will be required. This information should be considered early in the design process so the new kitchen layout can be planned realistically and safely.
