How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Camas, WA?

Most Camas kitchen remodels land between $25,000 and $80,000+. A cosmetic refresh — cabinet painting or refacing, new counters, fixtures and backsplash — sits at the lower end. The larger kitchens in Prune Hill, Grass Valley and Camas Meadows homes typically run 250–400 sq ft with an island and a peninsula to deal with, which puts a full replacement in the middle of the range. Removing a bearing wall, relocating plumbing, or building fully custom cabinetry pushes past $65,000. You get a line-item written estimate after the free in-home consultation.

How long does a kitchen remodel take in Camas, WA?

Plan on 4–10 weeks on site. Add time before that for design and material selections, and for cabinet lead times, which typically run 6–10 weeks from order. If your project needs plans reviewed, the City of Camas notes that residential review time varies with the volume of plans in the queue, so we confirm the current turnaround with staff at submittal rather than guessing. We give you the schedule in writing before demolition starts.

Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Camas?

Usually yes. The City of Camas issues over-the-counter permits for some work, but an interior remodel needs plan review depending on scope — and anything touching structure, plumbing, gas, or mechanical systems requires a permit. Purely cosmetic work like paint, flooring, or cabinet refacing generally does not. Electrical permits are not issued by the city at all; those go through Washington L&I. If your address is outside city limits, the project is permitted by Clark County instead, through its electronic ProjectDox review. We confirm which jurisdiction covers your address, then handle the submittal and inspections as your licensed contractor (L&I # SERDEGL826PD).

Can I take out the wall between my kitchen and family room?

Often, yes — it is the single most requested change in the late-1990s and 2000s Camas homes on Prune Hill and around Lacamas Lake, where the kitchen was built closed off from the family room. Those walls are frequently load bearing, so opening one means an engineered beam or flush header, new point loads carried down to the foundation, and stamped structural calculations submitted with the permit. We assess it during the consultation and price the structural work openly rather than discovering it mid-project.

Which Camas neighborhoods do you work in?

All of them, plus the surrounding area — Prune Hill, Grass Valley, Lacamas Shores, Lacamas Lake and the North Shore, Camas Meadows, Green Mountain, Fern Prairie, Forest Home, and downtown Camas, along with neighboring Washougal. Camas is a short drive east of our Vancouver base, so we are on site for walkthroughs and inspections, not phoning them in.

Do you use your own crew or subcontractors?

Design, demolition, cabinetry, countertops, tile and finish carpentry are handled by our own in-house crew. For specialty scopes we work with licensed, vetted trade partners we have used for years. Either way, one Serden Group project manager coordinates the whole schedule and stays your single point of contact from the first walkthrough to the final inspection.

Will my Camas HOA need to approve the work?

For an interior kitchen remodel, usually not — HOA review typically applies to exterior changes. That said, several Camas neighborhoods do have active associations, and the City of Camas publishes a neighborhood and HOA map showing which ones. If your remodel adds a new roof vent for a range hood, changes a window, or needs a dumpster and materials staged in a shared drive, we will prepare the submittal your association needs.

Kitchen Remodeling Built

Camas kitchens fall into two camps: newer hillside builds that need layout and finish work, and older homes near downtown where demolition tends to uncover surprises. We plan for both, and we know which permit office your address answers to.

State Licensed & Bonded

Washington L&I licensed (SERDEGL826PD), bonded and insured. We submit plans to the City of Camas Building Division on NE 4th Avenue, pull the separate electrical permit through Washington L&I, and meet the inspector on site.

Local Knowledge

What makes a Camas kitchen remodel different

Camas is not one housing stock, it's three — and the kitchen scope changes completely depending on which one you own. Here is what we actually run into, neighborhood by neighborhood.

Prune Hill, Holly Hills & Grass Valley — the late-1990s and 2000s builds

These are the homes we remodel most in Camas: 2,000–4,000 sq ft, with a kitchen of roughly 250–400 sq ft that was framed closed off from the family room, plus a peninsula and a built-in desk nook nobody uses anymore.

Opening the wall to the family room, which is often bearing and needs an engineered header
Replacing the peninsula with a working island and adding seating
Retiring the desk nook into pantry or appliance storage
Venting the range hood properly through the roof instead of recirculating

Lacamas Shores, Lacamas Lake & the North Shore — view lots

When the kitchen looks out over the lake or toward Mount Hood, the design problem is protecting sightlines rather than adding storage.

Standard-height islands with no raised bar to block the window wall
Upper cabinets pulled off the view elevation, storage moved to a tall pantry run
Ceiling-mounted or slim downdraft ventilation instead of a bulky hood
Undercabinet and toe-kick lighting so the glass stays dark and reflective at night

Downtown Camas & Forest Home — the older mill-era houses

Smaller footprints, more character, and more unknowns behind the plaster. On these projects the estimate matters less than the contingency.

Galvanized supply lines and cast-iron waste that should be replaced while walls are open
Undersized electrical panels that can't carry a modern appliance package
Joist direction that limits where a sink or dishwasher drain can move
We budget a 10–15% contingency on pre-1980 homes and say so up front

What Camas homeowners are choosing in 2026

The Camas palette leans warmer and more organic than the all-white kitchens of a few years ago — a Pacific Northwest read on modern.

Rift-sawn or white oak islands paired with painted perimeter cabinetry
Quartz on work surfaces, quartzite or honed stone on the island
Full-height slab or large-format tile backsplashes instead of subway
Panel-ready refrigeration and integrated appliance runs

Permits: City of Camas or Clark County?

This is the first thing we settle, because it changes the submittal entirely. Homes inside Camas city limits are permitted by the City of Camas Building Division; addresses in unincorporated Clark County go through the county's electronic plan review instead, which no longer accepts paper submittals. We verify the jurisdiction for your address, prepare the drawings, and schedule the inspections.

Cosmetic work — paint, flooring, cabinet refacing — generally needs no permit. Anything that moves plumbing or gas, alters structure, or changes mechanical systems does. Electrical is its own permit and does not come from the city.

Great experience working with this company. They were professional, responsive, and the quality of their work was solid. They even took the time to treat me to lunch and go over the project details, which I appreciated. Would recommend.

The SERDEN Group did a complete remodel of our two upstairs bathrooms. Every step of the way Dennis, and his team, were communicative, kind, timely, and productive. They worked diligently, caring about the impact of having workers in your home. Everyone was friendly and attended to our creative ideas for the bathrooms. In the end we have two amazing new bathrooms. Our family is grateful for SERDEN and are wonderfully reminded daily of their excellent work. Thank you!
