Separate repair needs from design wishes
If the project includes damaged finishes, document those conditions separately from upgrades you would like to make. Your contractor should identify what must be repaired before new cabinets or countertops are installed. Product selection is easier when the underlying scope is clear.
For the design discussion, photograph the sink base, flooring transitions and appliance openings. Decide which appliances remain and whether seating, pantry storage or preparation space is the priority. A wish list and a repair list serve different purposes; keep both.
- Record existing conditions before removing finishes.
- Mark dimensions as preliminary until professionally verified.
- Ask who will receive and inspect product deliveries.
Use the correct permitting system
Cape Coral directs applicants to review permit types in its Permit Document Center before submitting through the city’s Customer Self-Service portal. The portal also provides permit and inspection tracking. Ask your contractor to identify the applicable document checklist and who will handle the inspection requests.
Fort Myers and other Lee County communities are not automatically governed by Cape Coral’s process. Confirm the project address and jurisdiction first, especially when comparing estimates from professionals serving several communities.

Make delivery and installation comparable
Have cabinet quotes specify the finish, box material, drawer system and included trim. Identify countertop measurement, fabrication, cutouts and installation as separate responsibilities, even if one company packages several services together.
Ask about the delivery location, unloading, protected storage and the written process for reporting damaged items. Put contractor work, applicable taxes and membership costs into the same comparison. Keep unresolved repair allowances visible; they should not disappear behind an attractive product total.
Explore materials in person
Ask HIBC about showroom options near your project in Cape Coral–Fort Myers area. Share your city, state and product interests so visit arrangements and availability can be confirmed separately. Our service begins online.
Can the initial review include a repair-and-remodel project?
Yes. Explain which conditions need professional assessment and which changes are optional. HIBC’s product discussion does not establish structural condition, an insurance entitlement or a permit decision.
Review and membership costs
Your initial kitchen review is free and does not enroll you. Gold membership is a separate purchase: $4,995 initial enrollment includes Year 1, with $495 annual continuation beginning in Year 2 under the checkout terms. Detailed complimentary kitchen design is a Gold membership benefit. Include membership in a complete-cost comparison; actual savings depend on your products and alternative quotes.
Start with your project
Share your project city and state, kitchen photos or a rough sketch, and your top priorities. The free initial review is separate from Gold membership.
