Your Ames Kitchen Remodeling Crew
Ames sits in Liberty County with 1,137 people across roughly 3.3 square miles, and housing stock varies street to street. Our kitchen remodeling scope is set after we look at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Lead times on cabinets and counters drive the schedule more than the labour does.
Our Kitchen Remodeling scope in Ames
- Written scope and sequence before demolition
- Demolition, then rough-in coordinated with trades
- Cabinets set and leveled, counters templated after
- Tile, flooring and trim in order
- Paint last, then a punch walk with you
With a 2023 Census estimate of 1,137 residents, Ames is large enough that we see the same construction eras repeat: subdivisions built in runs, with the same details failing in the same order. Permit requirements differ between incorporated cities and unincorporated county areas here, and we confirm which applies.
The numbers on Ames: 1,137 residents (2023 est.) across roughly 3.3 square miles of Liberty County, about 344 people per square mile. Closest communities we also serve: Liberty 3.1 miles out, Hardin 7.2 miles out, Kenefick 7.4 miles out.
The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the kitchen remodeling itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your Ames home before the job is called done.

What kitchen remodeling costs in Ames
We do not publish flat prices for kitchen remodeling, because two Ames homes can need very different amounts of work behind the same-looking job. What we can tell you is exactly what moves the number, and then put yours in writing after a free walkthrough.
- Lead times on cabinets and counters, which drive the schedule
- Plumbing or electrical moves versus keeping everything in place
- Cabinet grade and counter material: where most budgets are decided
- Scope line: refresh, pull-and-replace or layout change
Why Ames homeowners call JM Painting
We are not the cheapest bid in Liberty County and do not try to be. The bid that skips preparation is cheaper right up until the work fails, and our Ames customers tend to be people who have bought that lesson once already.
Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. With Liberty just 3.1 miles from Ames on the same route, coming back to make something right is a detour for us, not a lost day, so it actually happens.
Kitchen Remodeling near Ames
Ames sits in a cluster we work as one route: Liberty (3.1 mi), Hardin (7.2 mi), Kenefick (7.4 mi), Daisetta (7.5 mi), Hull (9 mi), Devers (9.1 mi). If your project straddles a line — a house in one, a rental in another — the same written-scope process covers both without a second mobilization fee.

- The default Ames scope: Written scope and sequence before demolition; Demolition, then rough-in coordinated with trades; Cabinets set and leveled, counters templated after. Anything beyond that is listed separately on your quote.
