Kitchen Remodel
in Columbia, MD
Where Every Day Begins — and Every Gathering Ends
The kitchen is where your home earns its keep.
It’s where coffee is brewed before the rest of the house wakes up, where kids toil on their homework at the island after school, where guests naturally migrate and mingle. It’s the room that sets the standard for everything around it — and when it’s not working, you feel it. Every. Single. Day.
Custom kitchen remodeling in Columbia, MD is one of the most significant investments a Howard County homeowner can make — and one of the most rewarding when it’s done right. Cossentino & Sons brings decades of local experience, a design-build process, and an uncompromising standard of craftsmanship to every kitchen project we take on.
The Cossentino & Sons Kitchen Remodeling Process
Step 1: The Consultation
Owner Wayne Cossentino personally meets with every new client to establish scope, identify priorities, and set a realistic budget range. It’s also where we begin to understand how you use your kitchen—because a great remodel starts with understanding the people it’s designed for.
Step 2: Design and Selection
Our kitchen designers work with you to make every selection — cabinets, countertops, appliances, fixtures, flooring, and lighting. Our showroom allows clients to see and interact with materials in person before committing to the project. A three-dimensional rendering is produced before construction begins, so there are no surprises when the first cabinet goes in.
Step 3: Construction
Our team manages every phase — demolition, cabinetry, countertops, appliances, tile, flooring, electrical, and finish work — using MHIC-licensed subcontractors throughout. Work areas are kept clean, and we do our best to stay on schedule so your household can return to normal as quickly as possible.
Step 4: Completion and Warranty
Every completed kitchen is backed by a five-year warranty—well above Maryland’s one-year state mandate. Learn more about what sets us apart.
High-End Kitchen Remodeling: What to Expect
Every kitchen is different — but the best remodels tend to share the same DNA:
- Custom cabinetry built to exact specifications — with soft-close hardware, full-extension glides, pull-out shelving, and integrated organizers as standard expectations
- Premium countertops in quartz, natural stone (quartzite, marble, granite), or large-format porcelain slab — selected for both aesthetics and performance in a working kitchen
- Professional-grade appliances including high-output ranges, column refrigeration, integrated dishwashers, and Kohler kitchen fixtures for sinks and faucets
- Custom kitchen islands that serve as workspace, dining surface, and storage solution—with options for prep sinks, seating overhangs, and custom millwork
- A layered lighting plan — task, ambient, and accent — designed from the start rather than added as an afterthought
- Fine flooring chosen in the context of the full material palette: hardwood, engineered wood, large-format porcelain, or luxury vinyl, depending on the household and the design
Not every element will fit every kitchen. Our design-build team will help you identify which components best align with your goals, so the finished result is cohesive, functional, and built to last.
Understanding the Investment
A realistic sense of investment helps homeowners plan — and helps align expectations before the first conversation. For context, high-end kitchen remodels in the Howard County and greater Baltimore/DC metro market typically fall in the following ranges:
- High-end custom remodel (custom cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, natural stone, reconfigured layout): $100,000–$175,000+
- Luxury or whole-kitchen expansion (structural changes, premium finishes throughout, full appliance suite, custom millwork): $175,000 and above
Final investment depends on the size of the space, the extent of layout changes, and the material selections made. An initial consultation is the right place to establish a working budget for your specific project.
