Reynoldsburg is a well-established Columbus suburb with a housing stock that spans several decades of residential construction. Homes from the 1970s, 80s, and 90s make up a significant portion of the market, and many of them have original kitchens and bathrooms that are overdue for a meaningful update. Newer construction in Reynoldsburg tends to come with builder-grade interiors that are functional but rarely represent what the homeowner would choose given the option.
The Kitchen Consultants works with Reynoldsburg homeowners across all three of our primary service areas — kitchen remodeling, bathroom renovation, and basement finishing. We bring the same design-build approach to each project, handling design, permitting, and construction through a single team.
Services
Reynoldsburg kitchens from the 1980s and 1990s present a familiar set of conditions — closed layouts, dated cabinet construction, laminate countertops, and appliances that are well past their useful life. For homes built more recently, the situation is often builder-grade finishes that looked acceptable at move-in but haven’t held up well or simply don’t reflect the homeowner’s taste.
Reynoldsburg homes from the 1980s frequently have kitchens enclosed by walls that don’t carry structural load. Opening those walls to connect the kitchen to the dining or living area is one of the highest-impact changes in a kitchen renovation — it changes how light moves through the main floor and how the household actually experiences the space.
For Reynoldsburg homes that already have open-concept layouts, the renovation conversation shifts to functional efficiency. Adequate counter space, properly sized islands, appliance placement relative to workflow, and storage capacity are the details that determine whether a kitchen genuinely works.
Older Reynoldsburg kitchens often have cabinets that are structurally intact but functionally limited — shallow drawers, no soft-close hardware, poor interior organization, and surfaces that show decades of use. When the boxes are still sound, refacing with new doors and hardware delivers significant visual improvement at a fraction of full replacement cost.
When the cabinet construction is not worth preserving, or the layout needs to change to improve function, we replace it with semi-custom or custom cabinetry. Our standard includes soft-close hinges and drawer slides, full-extension hardware, and interior organization systems that make the kitchen genuinely more functional day to day.
Quartz is the most frequently requested countertop in Reynoldsburg kitchen renovations. The combination of durability, low maintenance, and variety of available styles makes it the practical choice for most households. Granite is available for homeowners who prefer natural stone, and we stock profiles suited to the warm tones common in Reynoldsburg cabinet and flooring selections.
Solid surface and laminate options are available for Reynoldsburg projects where budget is a primary consideration. These have improved meaningfully in recent years and perform well in active household kitchens when properly specified.
Appliance installation is managed within the standard kitchen renovation scope. We coordinate delivery timing, handle all gas and electrical connections, and complete plumbing hookups for dishwashers and refrigerator ice makers. Homeowners don’t need to coordinate a separate appliance installer — it’s part of the project.
Bathroom renovation in Reynoldsburg covers everything from primary bathroom gut-and-rebuilds to secondary bathroom refreshes and half-bath additions. The goal in every project is a bathroom that functions better than before, holds up to daily use, and reflects how the household actually wants to live in the space.
Tile work in Reynoldsburg bathroom renovations is handled across floor and wall applications. We work with large-format porcelain for floor applications that minimize grout lines, ceramic and porcelain in a range of styles for shower surrounds and wainscoting, and natural stone where the design calls for it.
Fixture and hardware finish selection is coordinated throughout the renovation. Matching faucets, shower trim, towel bars, and lighting fixtures to a consistent finish is one of the details that separates a renovation that looks professional from one that looks assembled.
Vanity replacement in Reynoldsburg bathrooms addresses both function and appearance. We work with semi-custom and custom vanity configurations sized to the bathroom’s actual dimensions, with storage configurations that match how the household uses the space. Wider double-sink vanities are frequently requested in primary bathrooms.
Plumbing relocation required for vanity repositioning is handled within the renovation project. We don’t treat plumbing changes as a separate scope item — it’s part of delivering the bathroom correctly.
Walk-in shower conversions are among the most requested changes in Reynoldsburg primary bathrooms. We build custom tile enclosures with frameless glass, integrated niches, linear and center drain options, and heated floor systems embedded in the tile assembly.
Reynoldsburg homeowners who want to retain a bathtub in the primary bathroom have options including freestanding soaking tubs and alcove replacements. Freestanding tubs are positioned during the design phase to ensure plumbing rough-in is handled correctly in sequence with the rest of the renovation.
Reynoldsburg has a high proportion of homes with full unfinished basements. Finishing that space is typically the most cost-effective way to add livable square footage to the home without the expense of an addition. Family rooms, home offices, guest bedrooms, gyms, and entertainment spaces are the configurations we build most frequently in Reynoldsburg.
Moisture assessment is completed before any framing or insulation is placed in a Reynoldsburg basement. Older homes in particular may have drainage systems that need attention before a finished basement will perform as expected. We assess, identify any issues, and address them as part of the project — Drylok application, French drain installation, and sump pump work are all in scope when needed.
Standard Reynoldsburg basement finishes include recessed lighting, luxury vinyl plank or tile flooring, insulated and drywalled walls, and paint. Egress windows are standard for any space intended as a bedroom. Basement bathrooms, wet bars, and built-in shelving or media configurations are incorporated during the design phase so all rough-in work is sequenced correctly.
Ceiling treatment options include drywall, coffered designs, and drop ceilings where access to mechanical systems needs to be maintained. We discuss the options during design based on ceiling height, mechanical layout, and the homeowner’s preference.
Basement finishing in Reynoldsburg requiring electrical, plumbing, or egress work goes through the City of Reynoldsburg permitting process. We handle permit applications, schedule inspections at each required phase, and manage documentation through final sign-off.
The Kitchen Consultants is a design-build firm, which means the team that designs your project is the same team that builds it. The founder’s background in engineering and residential construction informs how we approach every project — with attention to how spaces are actually used, not just how they photograph.
Our process starts with an in-home consultation to understand the space, hear what’s not working, and establish what a successful outcome looks like. From there we develop a detailed design and project scope, review it with you, and schedule construction with a clear timeline.
We serve Reynoldsburg and the broader Columbus metro including Blacklick, Gahanna, New Albany, Westerville, Grove City, Hilliard, Dublin, Upper Arlington, Worthington, and Powell.
