Open Floor Plan Kitchen Conversions in Charlotte, NC

Open Floor Plan Kitchen Conversions Built for the Way You Actually Live

Premier Renovations, Inc. removes the walls and outdated layouts that keep your kitchen closed off, creating one connected space for cooking, dining, and family time.

What an Open Floor Plan Kitchen Conversion Involves

A closed-off kitchen with a wall separating it from the living room or dining area was standard decades ago. Today, most homeowners want a kitchen that opens into the rest of the house, so cooking, entertaining, and family time happen in the same connected space.

An open floor plan conversion is a structural project, not a cosmetic one. Our team as your kitchen renovation contractor evaluates load-bearing walls, plumbing lines, electrical runs, and HVAC ductwork before removing anything, then builds a plan that keeps your home safe and code-compliant while opening up the space you want.

Premier Renovations, Inc. handles the entire process, from the initial structural assessment through the custom kitchen renovations, cabinetry, and finish work that make the new layout feel intentional rather than knocked-together.

What's Included in Your Open Floor Plan Conversion

Every open floor plan kitchen conversion is different depending on your home's structure and your goals, but most projects include the same core elements:

  • Structural evaluation and engineering review of load-bearing walls
  • Wall removal, beam installation, and support system construction
  • Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC rerouting where needed
  • Custom cabinetry and kitchen layout design for the new open space
  • Flooring transitions and finish carpentry between old and new areas
  • Lighting design that works across the newly connected space

We scope every project during your renovation consultation, so you know exactly what's structural, what's cosmetic, and what it will take to get your kitchen opened up correctly.

Why Charlotte Homeowners Choose Premier Renovations

Built by a Contractor Who Understands Structure and Style

Opening up a kitchen wall touches almost every system in your home. Getting it right takes a general contractor who understands framing, code requirements, and design, not just someone who can knock down drywall.

Structural Expertise You Can Trust

We identify load-bearing walls and engineer proper support before any demolition starts, so your home stays structurally sound through the entire conversion.

Kitchen Remodeling and Carpentry Under One Roof

As a residential renovation contractor, we handle custom cabinetry, finish carpentry, and kitchen remodeling in-house, so your open concept kitchen feels finished, not patched together.

Designed for How Your Household Lives

Every layout we build accounts for traffic flow, sightlines, and how your family actually uses the kitchen, dining, and living space together, not just how it photographs.

How We Work

Our Open Floor Plan Conversion Process

Removing a wall between your kitchen and living space is one of the more involved renovation projects a home can take on. Here's how we manage it from first call to final walkthrough.

  1. 01

    Structural Assessment and Consultation

    We walk your home, review your goals, and identify which walls carry structural load before any plans are drawn. This tells us what's possible and what it will take to get there.

  2. 02

    Design and Permitting

    Our team designs the new open layout, including cabinetry placement, sightlines, and support beam locations, then handles engineering drawings and permitting with the city.

  3. 03

    Demolition and Structural Work

    We remove the wall, install the necessary beams and supports, and reroute any electrical, plumbing, or HVAC lines running through the old wall cavity.

  4. 04

    Finish Carpentry and Final Details

    Custom cabinetry, flooring transitions, trim, and lighting bring the new open space together, followed by a final walkthrough so you know your kitchen is ready to live in.

    Knowledgeable, professional and dependable. Scott and his crew are knowledgeable and professional. We've done several home improvement projects with them throughout the years. We started with a small job of opening a wall and since then they have updated our kitchen, guest bathrooms and have completed a major bathroom renovation. We're proud to be repeat customers.

    Premier Renovations did our rather large home remodel project almost 5 years ago now and we enjoy it everyday. We obtained multiple bids and settled with Premier Renovations and so glad we did. Scott Evert and his team did a wonderful job.

  • DA Dwayne Alexander 4 months ago
    I recently hired Premier Renovations for a complete master bathroom remodel, and I could not be more pleased with the entire experience and final result. From start to finish, their team was professional, responsive, and extremely detail-oriented. They took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered a finished product that exceeded my expectations. The quality of workmanship was outstanding, and every aspect of the project was completed with care and attention to detail. The crew was punctual, respectful of my home, and maintained a clean and organized work area throughout the renovation. Communication was excellent during the entire process. Any questions or changes were handled promptly, and they kept me informed every step of the way. The finished bathroom looks absolutely incredible. I would highly recommend Premier Renovations to anyone considering a remodeling project.

    We had some renovations done in our kitchen and love everything! They did a great job!
  • TP Tammi Poplin 8 months ago
    I contacted Premier Renovations to renovate my kitchen and two bathrooms. My parents would be moving upstairs into the space so it needed to be accommodating to their needs now and going forward. Scott and his team did an amazing job creating a comfortable and safe place for my parents while also staying within our budget. They have moved in and couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
  • JS John Scardina 8 months ago

  • GM Gary Morrison 8 months ago
    Premier Renovations has been absolutely awesome to work with, helping us completely renovate our entire home out of the 1990s. The ideas they helped us come up with to make sure we were getting our dream home have been spot on, and we've been very happy with the overall end product. We'd highly recommend Premier to anyone considering a major renovation.
  • TS Ty Schwartz a year ago
    Premier just completed a major home renovation for us, new kitchen, new master bathroom and new hardwood floors. Premier's workforce was amazing and they cleaned up the jobsite everyday. The contractors they bring in to do the electrical, the flooring, the painting, and the tile work - they are all fabulous as well. We could trust them all and we would often leave during the day while they were working. Great job, will definitely use them again - here are some photos of the finished renovation of the kitchen and bathroom.
  • SH Steve Habegger a year ago
    Just finished remodel of our master bath. Everyone at Premier was flexible and easy to work with throughout the process. Communication was great and the pricing was very fair. Everyone who came out from the demolition to the plumber, electrician and clean up were friendly and professional. They kept everything moving along and limited any disruption in our lives. We could not be happier with the finished product.
  • M Michelle a year ago
    From start to finish, Premier Renovations was amazing to work with; I have recommended them to several friends! The entire team was very respectful, hard working and it was apparent how much they all enjoy their jobs which was nice to see! I really felt they go above and beyond to ensure the customer was pleased with the end product. I was beyond impressed with their communication throughout the entire project; whether it was to let me know the day to day schedule, or promptly responding to any inquiries. I can’t recommend them enough and plan to use them on future projects!
  • TB Trisha Butler 7 years ago
    We just completed a large scale renovation with Premier Renovations and are extremely pleased. Scott and his crew did superb and timely job on our new kitchen, laundry room, butler's pantry, and outdoor patio. Scott's communication and problem solving skills rank him high as our contractor; in addition, he is a pleasure to work with. We are already planning phase 2 and will utilize Premier once again.
Questions we hear often

Frequently asked questions

The questions homeowners ask us most. If yours is not here, call the shop and ask.

In progress kitchen remodel corner range, Charlotte
Do you handle full home renovations or just single rooms?

Both. We're set up as a whole home remodeling contractor, so we can manage a full house transformation from the framing stage through final finish work, or we can focus on one space like a kitchen or bathroom.

What makes you different from a typical kitchen renovation contractor?

Our carpenters build custom cabinetry and millwork in-house, so your custom kitchen renovation isn't limited to stock cabinet lines. We design and build cabinetry to fit your exact layout and storage needs.

Do you handle permitting for structural work like additions?

Yes. We handle permitting and structural work for home additions and room expansions alongside our finish carpentry and remodeling services.

How does a renovation consultation work?

We start with an on-site walkthrough to understand your goals, existing layout, and budget. From there, we put together a scope of work and timeline before any contract is signed, so you know what to expect before committing.
