We design, build, and finish kitchens in Hillyard as one accountable team, with no second contractor to chase down. America’s Dream HomeWorks is family-owned and has been handling home remodel work since 2001, and we hold a Washington General Contractor License, so your project is managed by licensed, in-house craftspeople from design through final inspection.
If you’re deciding who to hire in Hillyard, WA, the short answer is this: choose a design-build company that keeps design, cabinets, countertop fabrication, permitting, and construction under one roof. That’s exactly how we work, serving the greater Spokane market from our showroom at 104 S. Moyie St. in Post Falls, Idaho. One team, one contract, one point of accountability from start to finish. If you’ve been searching for kitchen remodeling near me, this is the accountable team you’ve been looking for.
Our Kitchen Remodeling Services for Hillyard Homes
We handle every part of a kitchen remodel in-house, which means your design, materials, and construction all come from the same team. A good remodel does more than look new. It improves how you move through the space and how much you can actually store, so the room works for how your family cooks and gathers around daily meals.
We serve Hillyard clients from our Post Falls showroom, where you can compare cabinets, countertops, flooring, and full kitchen displays before you commit to anything. We plan layouts around a functional work triangle, generally measured between 13 and 26 feet, and we can specify energy-efficient appliances, modern fixtures, and the right lighting with durable materials when saving on your energy bills and improving everyday function matter to you.
Full Kitchen Remodels, the Dining Room Connection & Natural Lighting
We take kitchens from full demolition through completion, including opening a closed kitchen to the dining room for better traffic flow and more natural lighting. Many Hillyard kitchens were built as small, enclosed rooms on the main floor, and removing a wall or reworking the footprint can transform how the whole space feels. An open concept kitchen that flows into the dining room lets light reach deeper into the home through the windows and gives your family open space to move. We optimize storage and keep the work triangle efficient so daily cooking stops feeling cramped, and we pay attention to the small details of thoughtful design that make a modern kitchen comfortable to live in. If this is your first remodel, we walk you through every choice.
DreamLine Custom Cabinetry & Cabinet Refacing
Our DreamLine Custom Cabinetry is made in America and backed by a limited lifetime warranty, built to fit your kitchen’s exact dimensions. If your existing cabinet boxes are sound, refacing is a cost-effective alternative to a full replacement that still gives you a fresh look. Both are built and managed in-house, not ordered through an outside shop, so the cabinets that go into your kitchen match the quality we promise.
Countertops, Flooring, Tile & Different Types of Fixtures
We fabricate stone countertops in our own shop, including Quartz, Dekton, Cambria, Silestone, Granite, and natural stone. For flooring, we install hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, and tile, including RIVA Spain and Cortona Maxx lines. We work with many different types of finishes, from the sink to the cabinet hardware, so your style comes together as one coordinated look. Choosing cabinets, counters, flooring, and lighting in one place keeps the whole palette coordinated and the schedule in one team’s hands. When we help clients create a cohesive look, every detail from the countertop edge to the hardware is chosen to work together. If your plans also include a new bathroom or a small powder room refresh, we can fold that into the same project so you aren’t managing two schedules.
Why Hillyard Homeowners Choose Our Design-Build Team
Homeowners choose us because we are a single accountable company, not a middleman handing your kitchen off to a rotating cast of trades. We’ve been family-owned since 2001, we hold the Washington contractor license required to work in Spokane, and we’ve served more than 19,000 homeowners. Hiring a licensed, insured contractor matters because it keeps your construction compliant with local building codes and gives you real recourse if something goes wrong.
Because we work from our showroom at 104 S. Moyie St. in Post Falls, Idaho, you can see our craftsmanship in person before you sign anything. Our expertise and dedication show up in every detail, and we work closely with you to turn your vision into a plan. Trust comes first here, then the design possibilities.
One Contract, One Accountable Team, No Subcontractor Runaround
You sign one contract with us, and we handle design, cabinets, countertop fabrication, permit coordination, and construction in-house. Many remodelers promise to do everything, then subcontract the labor and disappear between phases. We don’t. We hold Washington General Contractor License #AMERIDH752RT, and the same team that designs your kitchen is the team that builds it, so you never go searching for someone else to finish what we started.
Warranties That Protect Your Investment
Every remodel we complete is backed by a 24-month labor warranty. Separately, our DreamLine Custom Cabinetry carries a limited lifetime warranty. These are two distinct protections, and together they cover both the work we perform and the cabinets we build.
How Your Hillyard Kitchen Remodel Works
Your remodel follows a clear process so you always know what comes next. Most kitchen remodels require permits when structural, electrical, or plumbing work is involved, and permits exist to confirm the project is feasible and safe. We build that review into the plan rather than treating it as an afterthought, and we handle the coordination for you. Good engineering on the front end keeps the whole process predictable and respects your daily routines while the work is underway.
Step 1: Free Consultation & Showroom Visit
Start with a free consultation and a visit to our Post Falls showroom, where you can compare cabinets, countertops, and flooring side by side. We show you a 3D preview so you can see the layout before any decisions are locked in. This visualization-first process removes the guesswork for homeowners who struggle to picture the finished room. Reach out to schedule your visit.
Step 2: Design, Material Selection & Estimate
Next we define the full scope, finalize your materials, and provide detailed documentation with a project-specific estimate and an estimated timeline. Several things control the cost: your cabinet configuration and level of customization, whether plumbing or electrical locations move, structural changes like removing a wall, your countertop and flooring selections, the lighting plan, and any conditions uncovered after demolition. Cabinets are typically the largest line item, often consuming 30 to 40 percent of a kitchen budget, so we advise planning a contingency of 10 to 20 percent for the unexpected.
Step 3: Permits, Build & Inspections
We coordinate permits with the City of Spokane and manage demolition, trades, and inspections from there. Permitting for Hillyard runs through the City of Spokane Planning & Development Services Center and Permit Center at 808 W Spokane Falls Blvd., and separate electrical, plumbing, or mechanical permits apply when those trades are part of the construction. Any structural change involves engineering review so the work is sound before the first wall comes down. Every permitted project requires at least one inspection, and many require multiple trade and final inspections. If demolition exposes something unexpected in an older home, we document a change order and talk it through with you before any extra work proceeds.
Remodeling Kitchens in Hillyard’s Historic, Early-Century Homes
Hillyard is an official neighborhood of Spokane, WA, with a character worth protecting rather than erasing. It sits within Spokane city limits and is represented by the Hillyard Neighborhood Council, bounded by the city limits to the north and east, Crestline Street to the west, and portions of Wellesley, Haven, Garland, Market, and Garnet to the south. North Market Street has anchored the neighborhood as its historic commercial corridor, with district buildings constructed primarily between 1901 and 1948.
Most of Hillyard’s housing was built before 2000, and a substantial share dates to 1939 or earlier, with Craftsman bungalows a documented part of the architecture. Kitchens in these homes often contain older wiring, plumbing, and original windows hidden behind previous updates, and sometimes lead or asbestos that calls for careful assessment. We treat that as a reason to evaluate carefully, not a reason to gut the character. Our goal is to preserve the original feel while improving storage, workflow, and natural lighting, which matters through the region’s overcast winters. A modern kitchen can still honor a historic home when the details are handled with care, whether you renovate one room or the whole main floor.
Winter Access, Terrain & Scheduling in Hillyard
Spokane’s snow season runs from November 15 through March 15, and that affects delivery planning for Hillyard addresses. The City plows arterials before residential streets and residential hills, so we stage cabinets, flooring, and stone with winter weather in mind and confirm access before delivery day. The southeastern part of the neighborhood rises toward the western slopes of Beacon Hill, where sloped driveways can need extra planning. As an EPA Lead-Safe Certified firm, we handle demolition in pre-1978 homes with the proper containment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in Hillyard?
Many kitchen remodels in Hillyard, WA require a permit, handled through the City of Spokane Planning & Development Services Center and Permit Center at 808 W Spokane Falls Blvd. The City reviews residential interior remodeling and requires separate electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits when those trades are part of the project. Structural changes almost always need review. We coordinate the full permit package, and for a cosmetic-only update we confirm the threshold directly with the Permit Center.
How long does a full kitchen remodel take?
Most full kitchen remodels run roughly 6 to 12 weeks of construction, with larger or more complex projects taking longer, sometimes several months from design through the final punch list. Timeline depends on your materials, how much the layout changes, and permit review. Custom cabinets have the longest preconstruction lead time, which is why early planning pays off.
What is a realistic budget, and what’s the most expensive part?
Your budget depends entirely on scope, so we provide a project-specific free estimate rather than a published range. Cabinets are typically the largest line item, often 30 to 40 percent of the total cost. Because Hillyard’s older homes can hide surprises behind the walls, we recommend setting aside a contingency of 10 to 20 percent of the budget.
Can you remodel an older Hillyard bungalow without losing its character?
Yes. Our design-build team preserves Craftsman and bungalow character while improving storage, workflow, and natural lighting. We run a structured preconstruction evaluation and assess load-bearing walls before making assumptions about what can be removed. If demolition exposes old wiring, plumbing, or hazardous materials, we document a change order and discuss it with you before proceeding.
Do you build cabinets and fabricate countertops in-house, and can I see a 3D design first?
Yes to both. We build DreamLine Custom Cabinetry and fabricate stone countertops in our own shop, and we show you a 3D preview and real material samples before you commit. Start with a visit to our Post Falls showroom at 104 S. Moyie St. to compare everything in one place.
