Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath | Expert Kitchen and Bath Installation, Remodel and Refinishing
Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath is an experienced kitchen and bath remodeling contractor fully committed to Lexington, SC homes and businesses. It all started in September 2000 with one simple goal. We wanted to help local families fix up their kitchens. But we didn’t pull up marketing claims to be the best. We just gave exceptional service in every project.
Twenty-six years later, we’re still that same Lexington team, and we've gotten a lot bigger. As word spread, we brought on more skilled, trained, and licensed builders and installers. Today we’re proud to serve over 20 locations across Lexington County. We’ve grown a lot, but we still show up, listen, and treat every job like it’s our own. You’ll find our work in neighborhoods like Saluda River Club and Turners Pointe, at local businesses like Ember Lexington, and in apartment communities like Lauren Ridge Apartment Homes. Whether it’s a kitchen refresh, a new shower, a restaurant kitchen, or a full apartment renovation, we’ve got the people and the experience to get it done. Got a kitchen or bathroom that needs some love? Let’s talk.

Custom Kitchen and Bath Remodels for Lexington Homes
Kitchen Remodeling
At Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath, we handle full kitchen gut remodels, from tear-out and rebuild to wall removal, bump-outs, and additions with a pantry or mudroom, using Cambria quartz countertops and Kohler and Moen sinks and faucets. Choose from an open concept, galley, farmhouse, modern, or transitional design, or a historic home kitchen renovation. Given these options, we recommend open concept to most of our clients. It brightens the space and improves flow, and with dust containment, you can stay home during the remodel!
Kitchen Cabinet Installation
We install custom kitchen cabinetry built to make kitchens more organized and easy to use. Our work includes semi-custom and stock kitchen cabinets, frameless, inset, and face-frame styles, built-to-fit kitchen cabinets, and base, wall, and tall cabinet installation, plus pull-out pantry and lazy Susan installation.
Our professional Lexington installers pay close attention to smooth, quiet function, with soft-close hinges and precise alignment. We’ve completed projects in Saluda River Club and Kingston Harbour, and handle over 80 kitchen remodeling projects each year.
Kitchen Cabinet Refacing & Refinishing
Your worn kitchens can get a fresh look through cabinet refacing and resurfacing. You can choose from cabinet veneer, cabinet door and drawer-front replacement that keeps your existing cabinet boxes in place. Cabinet painting, cabinet staining, and spray-finished kitchen cabinets deliver smooth, durable color, including two-tone kitchen cabinets for added contrast. If you love your wood finish, wood cabinet refinishing and cabinet restoration bring out natural grain and repair wear. Our crew finishes each project with a soft-close cabinet upgrade, so doors and drawers close quietly and feel like new.
Bathroom Remodeling
Bathroom remodeling in Lexington turns outdated bathrooms into comfortable, easy-to-maintain spaces. Our crew handles full bathroom gut remodels, bathroom tear-out and rebuild, bathroom wall removal, and bathroom plumbing relocation, using Schluter-Systems waterproofing and tile underlayment, plus Kohler and TOTO toilets and Kohler vanities and fixtures. Choose a primary bathroom remodel, master bathroom renovation, ensuite bathroom remodel, or spa bathroom remodel, plus powder room, half bath, Jack and Jill bathroom, and basement bathroom remodels. Many families do a bathroom remodel while living in home, and we keep the work tidy.
Shower Remodeling & Replacement
Shower remodeling in Lexington gives homes a safer bathroom. We install walk-in showers, curbless, roll-in, and barrier-free showers, tub-to-shower conversions, shower pan replacement, and custom tile showers with a shower niche and shower bench. Rain shower installation, handheld shower installation, and a thermostatic shower valve complete it. A recent remodeling project in Springdale had Schluter-Systems Kerdi waterproofing and bases, Delta valves and trim, and DreamLine frameless shower doors installed. This is a close second in demand. That said, all 8 team leaders have NAHB Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) certifications.
Bathtub Replacement & Refinishing
Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath handles freestanding, soaking, drop-in, and walk-in tub installation, plus alcove tub replacement and tub-to-shower conversion, to eliminate the cracks, stains, and dated looks of worn bathtubs. Bathtub refinishing and tub reglazing, including cast iron tub refinishing and fiberglass tub refinishing, restore a smooth, glossy finish without a full tear-out. Finished with an acrylic tub surround or tile tub surround, your tub area resists moisture, mildew, and daily wear.

Lexington’s Trusted Kitchen and Bath Contractor
Licensed for the work, from your home to your business.
Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath holds the South Carolina licenses that residential and commercial remodeling require: Residential Builder, Residential Specialty Contractor, and Commercial General Contractor, along with licensed plumbers, electricians, and commercial mechanical trades. That means the people behind your shower, your wiring, or your restaurant hood system are qualified to do it. It also helps your project pass inspection the first time.
Bonded and insured, so you’re protected.
We carry Residential Builder and Residential Specialty bonds, plus general liability and workers’ compensation insurance. If something goes wrong on the job, like damaged property or an injured worker, you aren’t left paying for it. It also gives property managers and business owners the proof of coverage they usually need before work begins.
Certified for safe, specialized work.
Our team holds EPA Lead-Safe (RRP) certification, NKBA certifications, NAHB Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) credentials, and OSHA 10/30-hour cards. These matter because they keep lead dust out of older homes, produce kitchen and bath designs that follow industry standards, make bathrooms safer for aging in place, and keep commercial job sites safe.
The Details Behind a Well-Installed Kitchen and Bath
At Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath, the difference shows up in the small things you notice every day. It can be a drawer that glides shut, a tile line that stays straight, a shower that never leaks. Here’s what we pay attention to on every job.
Accurate measurements
We measure walls, corners, and openings more than once, because few older Lexington-area homes are perfectly square. Cabinets, countertops, and shower glass get fitted to the real room, not the plan.
Level and plumb cabinet runs
Base and wall cabinets are set level and tied together so doors line up, drawers glide, and countertops sit flat. Small shims and careful scribing close gaps against uneven walls and floors.
Precise cuts
Sink cutouts, cooktop openings, and countertop seams are cut and test-fitted before anything is set. The same goes for tile around niches, drains, and outlets, so edges look clean instead of patched.
Waterproofing that goes behind the finish
Showers and tub surrounds get a sealed membrane at the pan, walls, corners, and niche before tile goes on. You’ll never see it, but it’s what keeps moisture out of the walls in South Carolina’s humidity.
Tile layout and grout lines
We plan tile starting points so cuts land where they’re least noticeable, with grout lines that stay straight from the floor to the backsplash and around the shower bench. Consistent spacing and a flat surface make the difference between “installed” and “crafted.”
Transitions and finishing details
The last details tie the room together, including caulk lines, trim and baseboard returns, floor transitions into adjoining rooms, cabinet hardware alignment, and soft-close adjustments. We check every one before we call a project finished.
Aging-in-Place Bathroom Upgrades: Safer Showers and Tubs for Staying in Your Home
Many Lexington homeowners want to stay in the homes they love as the years go by. The bathroom is often the first room that needs to change, since wet floors, high tub walls, and tight spaces make slips and falls more likely. The good news is that a few well-chosen upgrades can make a bathroom safer without making it look like a medical facility.
Curbless and Walk-In Shower Options
A curbless shower has no step to climb over. The floor slopes gently toward the drain, so you can walk or roll right in. A walk-in shower may keep a very low threshold, which still reduces the tripping risk of a tub wall. Both are easier to enter and exit, and both work well with a bench or a handheld showerhead. Curbless designs need careful floor slope and waterproofing, so they’re best done during a full remodel. Learn more about our Lexington Custom Kitchen & Bath’s shower remodeling & replacement services.
Converting a Tub to a Shower
If you rarely take baths, a tub-to-shower conversion replaces the tub with a larger, safer shower in the same space. You gain room to move, a place to sit, and easier access. It’s one of the most popular aging-in-place upgrades because it doesn’t require changing the whole room. If you’d rather keep a tub, we also offer Bathtub Replacement & Refinishing.
Grab Bars, Shower Benches, Handheld Showerheads, and Non-Slip Flooring
These smaller details make a big difference:
- Grab bars: Placed near the toilet, shower entry, and inside the shower, they give you something solid to hold. They need to be anchored into wall framing or blocking, not just drywall.
- Shower benches: A built-in or fold-down bench lets you sit while bathing and rest when you need to.
- Handheld showerheads: They let you shower seated and rinse without turning or reaching.
- Non-slip flooring: Textured porcelain tile or slip-resistant surfaces help keep footing steady on wet floors, which matters in Lexington’s humid climate.
Walk-In Tub Considerations
A walk-in tub has a door, so you step in rather than over a wall, and many also choose to include built-in seats. They can be a good fit for people who want to keep taking baths. Keep in mind that you usually sit inside while the tub fills and drains, the door must seal properly, and the tub takes up more room than a standard one. For many homeowners, a curbless shower with a bench is the simpler choice, though the right answer depends on your needs and your bathroom.
Whether you’re planning a full bathroom remodeling project or a single upgrade, the small changes now can help you stay comfortable and independent at home for years to come.
Cost and Pricing for Kitchen and Bath Remodeling Services
Kitchen remodeling in Lexington typically costs about $10,000 to $27,000, and bathroom remodeling typically costs about $5,000 to $22,000, depending on the room’s size, materials, layout, and scope of work. Your total cost depends on:
- The materials you choose: Laminate countertops and stock cabinets cost less than quartz, custom cabinetry, or a custom tile shower.
- Your room’s size and scope: A cosmetic update costs less than a full gut remodel, and larger rooms require more material and labor.
- Layout changes: Wall removal, bump-outs, and moving plumbing or electrical lines add framing, rough-in, and inspection work.
- Fixtures and features: Curbless showers, frameless glass doors, rain showers, pull-out pantries, and built-in storage increase fabrication and installation time.
- Site conditions: Older homes may need subfloor repair, updated wiring, or lead-safe work, and occupied homes need extra dust containment.
Kitchen remodels often run about $75 to $250 per square foot nationally, and cabinetry is usually the largest single expense. We provide on-site estimates based on your room’s measurements, site conditions, and selected materials.

What Lexington Clients Say About Our Remodeling Services
“We couldn’t afford to close for weeks, so they phased the kitchen remodel around our schedule. They put in new hood and exhaust work, easy-to-clean wall panels, and a non-slip floor, and they set up the plumbing and grease trap without long downtime. We reopened on time, and our health inspection went smoothly.”
