Open Concept for Temple Terrace homes, done by insured Tampa Bay remodelers we match to your project. The single biggest change you can make to a closed-off Tampa Bay kitchen is to take out the wall between it and the living room. We handle the demo, the structural check, the header or beam where the wall was load-bearing, the new drywall finish, and the floor patch so the open kitchen reads as one room with the rest of the house..

A non-load-bearing wall removal in a Tampa Bay home runs $5,500-$9,500 including demo, drywall finish, floor patch, and paint. A load-bearing wall with an LVL beam runs $12,000-$22,000 depending on the span, the structural requirements, and the finish work needed to match the existing ceiling.
How do I know if a kitchen wall is load-bearing?
A wall is load-bearing if it carries weight from above (a second story, the roof, or a beam). The clearest sign is a structural beam or continuous foundation below. We confirm with a structural engineer on any wall we plan to remove, then pull the permit with the engineering letter attached.
